Kapitel 582: 582. Gold Lovers

Alexander had some more loose ends to tie before he started his work as the president. He needed to handle the girl from Xing and another guy he was told about that was locked up inside the prison. He was the same guy out of whom Greed Homoculus was taken out.

Alexander had thought that the guy must have died as is soul was shattered with the philosopher's stone. But he was wrong, somehow, even with the philosopher's stone in his body, his own soul stayed to retain some control. It was an amazing feat that not many could hope to achieve.

He quickly freed him and organised a meeting with all these Xing tourists.

"So, you all entered illegally," Alexander spoke.

This scared them all a bit. "Oh, we didn't mean to. We just lost our way in the desert."

"Calm down, I'm not going to punish you. In fact, I am going to go with you to Xing. I'm not going to judge your country's culture but what kind of King marries 50 women from 50 families that run the country and then make his hundreds of kids fight for the throne. He even sent you to find a way to become immortal.

"All I know is that as long as such traditions are kept ongoing, your country will never advance and maybe in the future it will end up being taken over by some other nearby country. We are in a new era now, long gone the days when kings ruled their kingdoms. This is the era of globalisation." Alexander said in length.

"Globalisation? What is that?" Mei asked him.

"Oh, Globalisation means the speedup of movements and exchanges of human beings, goods, and services, capital, technologies or cultural practises all over the planet. One of the effects of globalisation is that it promotes and increases interactions between different regions and populations around the globe.

"So, your country needs to adopt a policy that makes it friendly to other countries. But, as your emperor is dying, I don't think there will be much political stability for a long long time to come." Alexander said. His worries were acceptable as Mei and Ling knew this was the case. They were not even the eldest children of the emperor and knew what kind of mess the ones in the top would make if it came to full-on fight for the throne.

"Then what do you propose we should do?" Ling Yao asked.

"Simple, let the Emperor die, then I will use some secret means to make you two the ruling monarchs but you two will not be ruling the country literally. What your rule will be called a Constitutional Monarchy.

"Constitutional monarchy is a system of government in which a monarch shares power with a constitutionally organised government. The monarch may be the de facto head of state or a purely ceremonial leader. The constitution allocates the rest of the government's power to the legislature and judiciary." Alexander explained it to them. This was totally new to them after all.

"This means we will be Emperor and Empress just in name. Well, if this can benefit Xing then I see no problem." Ling breathed.

Alexander nodded, "The best party of this monarchy is that you and your descendants will be royalties for as long as your family line exists."

So, after this, Alexander went with the prince and princess of Xing. He passed as the super-rich businessman from the land far west. To their luck, by the time they reached the country, the emperor was already dead and the various factions were fighting to support their prince to become the king.

None of the kids really loved the Emperor as he was mostly busy either with his harem or coughing due to his bad health. The kids instead felt more like a family with their caretakers and bodyguards.

Alexander got to work and announced that a big tournament will occur. The winner will win a million gold coins and the seat to become the Emperor. It was supposed to happen in front of the commoners.

This way, when someone loses and still tries to fight, they won't find public support.

Of course, Alexander had made Ling and Mei powerful with his power. Though he only made them strong temporarily as too much power corrupts. He still made Mei more powerful than Ling as he felt that the girl wouldn't be going bad considering her love interest was Alphonse.

After a Chinese styled contest, the end fight was a draw between Ling Yao and Mei Chang. The two won the money and the right to become the next monarchs.

Of course, many other princes and their factions didn't agree to the result and tried to create a problem. They were simply publicly shamed and thrown into jail, with their whole property and money confiscated to help people and set up the new government.

Alexander then left behind 1 Seraph to advise the two new monarchs and also help set up elections and frame a nice constitution that would be in harmony with the constitution of Amestris.

Alexander returned after that as he himself had the stuff to deal with back in Amestris.

"Dobby, how are the Ishvalans reacting to everything?" Alexander inquired.

"Boss, they are still a bit sceptical about everything. But, most of them have agreed to resettle on their land. But, to not repeat the past mistakes, it won't be an exclusive zone. I am trying to settle Ishvalans all around the country as well as settling normal Amestrians in the land where Ishval used to be. Only when they feel included in the normal population will things go to normal." Dobby reported.

"Good, what about those Knock off Mandalorians?" Alexander asked.

"They have been good. They are patrolling the streets of Central and stopping all kinds of crimes. They are also teaching the normal Ishvalans that hating Alchemists is wrong." Dobby said.

Alexander sighed, "Well, I guess they are doing a good job. Let them be, we will deal with them later. Right now, the world's purity is at 70%. There is a rise in people using Alchemy and also some cases of people trying to transmute humans to make philosopher's stone.

"I expected this. We need new stick laws and to implement them." Alexander decided.

So, they focused on this. 5 years was the time needed to create a constitution, a judiciary, laws regulating Alchemy and setting up elections.

In the past 5 years, Alexander became widely popular as the Father of USA(United States of Amestricia.) They even had his face on the banknotes of the new currency called Dollar.

Alexander was blatantly copying stuff from his original world because he knew that these things do work. Economic and Scientific boom had turned the whole Economical Union Zone the wealthiest in the world. Xing was also not far behind. It was now a democratic country but with its huge population, they had become the biggest industrial hub.

...

5 years later,

Alexander sat in his office. Hughes was in front of him, reporting on his new task of setting up a United Nations Organisation. But Alexander had made it a bit different.

In his original world, UNO had become too bloated. So much so that its original purpose had been forgotten.

But here, Alexander only focused on a few things. Stopping Wars, Removing Hunger, Human Rights and Healthcare.

*BAM*

Ajax entered the room, "GRANDPA... Edward and Winry are marrying in a few days. Let's get going now."

Ajax was really excited about his friend's marriage. He had also planned for a surprise for Edward. Ajax had not seen Edward and Alphonse in a year as he was busy learning martial arts from his mom in Phixheim. Natasha was very strict on him after he had gotten a scar from his fight with Lust.

"Yes yes, stop jumping around. You are 10 years old now." Alexander chuckled and finished his work.

"Dobby, let's go. World Purity is also at 85 so we won't be staying here for much longer. Let's enjoy the time we have." Alexander said.

"Yes, boss. Let's invite others too." Dobby started calling people on his cellphone.

Alexander suddenly remembered something. "One more thing, tell Ragnarok to stop mining gold for god's sake. He has inflated the gold market."

"I did tell him but he has not stopped. Instead, he has told various mining companies that he will buy gold from them in return for other precious metals. So, he's expecting to control the market by not letting the gold reach the market and pocketing it himself." Dobby explained.

*Sigh*

"I really don't understand his fetish for gold," Alexander muttered and picked Ajax over his shoulder. The poor guy hadn't grown even an inch in 5 years.

"Ajax, let's buy a new golden car for Edward as a present." Alexander decided.

Dobby's eyes twitched, ~Are you sure you aren't a dragon too with your gold colour fetish~

Alexander felt someone speak, "Ah, you said something, Dobby?"

Dobby denied, "No no. Let's go."

~And he and his godly senses.~ he thought to himself,

[A/N: So, we are at the end of this arc. Next will be a few short arcs and then Dragon Ball Z. We are reaching the end of this novel so we will be seeing some stuff related to heaven and Zulrak as well.]
