Bab 53: Chapter 53: Heading to Europe

On October 30, 1900, after a few days of brief preparations and settling domestic affairs, Arthur set off on his journey to Europe with a large diplomatic visitation group consisting of a series of officials including Foreign Minister Andrew, Minister of Industry Pierre, and Minister of Defence Kent.

This diplomatic visiting team had two purposes: one was to accompany Arthur to attend Queen Victoria's funeral, and the other was to seek support and more technology from the United Kingdom and Germany.

As for Germany, it goes without saying that William II still wanted Australia to harass France's Asian and African colonies during wartime and would naturally not be stingy with industrial and technological support at this time.

As for the United Kingdom, although Queen Victoria had passed away, her will, along with her funeral, would be broadcasted throughout the United Kingdom and even the entire world.
