Life of Being a Crown Prince in France

In France, just entered Versailles, with the identity of the Crown Prince. The only problem was that the reigning king was Louis XVI, and in two years, he'd be "snapped"... Since I couldn't rely on dear old dad and the ministers, I had to take matters into my own hands to reform France! First, make a bit of easy money to solve the financial crisis that had plagued the nation for hundreds of years. Then give a harsh lesson to those nobles harboring treacherous intentions and plotting to seize power. Next, confiscate the Church's abundant lands, acquired without lifting a finger. Industry, technology, agriculture, commerce—I will all advance side by side, I, the greatest Crown Prince in France! That year, when the little British struggled with the allied forces at his borders, I simply took over his little island. That year, my sword pointed at all of Europe, the magnificent feat Napoleon didn't accomplish, I will achieve!!!

Chapter 343: War and Military Expenditure

Apart from its military advantage, Mysore was also an extremely wealthy nation.

Thanks to trade with England, Mysore's cotton, tea, spices, indigo, and sugar were exported in large quantities, bringing a vast amount of wealth to the nobles, providing ample material assurance for national warfare.

Using a phrase from future generations, Lafayette had never fought such a wealthy war before.

Of course, his opponents were even stronger—England, currently the most powerful country in the world, need not be mentioned. The East India Company had more than 3,000 regular troops in India and could mobilize around 6,000 when necessary. If reinforcements were called from England, they could have a force of 10,000 within three to four months.
