Chapter 66: Christmas Warship Visit

Arthur and William II's negotiations went very smoothly, taking less than three hours to determine the framework of the aid treaty, including the purchase of important technologies in military industry.

No matter what William II's purpose is, this treaty is only beneficial for Australia, with no drawbacks.

With the help of Germany and assistance from the United Kingdom, Australia's economy and industry will enter a period of explosive growth.

Although the signing of the aid treaty is accompanied by some agreements on military matters, the good news is that William II does not explicitly require Australia to join a future war.

Australia only needs to provide resource support to Germany within six months after the outbreak of the war and take the opportunity to harass France's major colonies.

For Arthur, this is completely acceptable. Without directly getting mired in the quagmire of war, causing more intense conflicts in Europe is not harmful to Australia.
