Chapter 81: Germany
The first German immigrants arrived in Jamestown, and they were also one of the earliest settlers in the American continental colonies. Later, a group of German immigrants came here, which was the pioneer of the largest immigrant group in the United States. Pennsylvania and upper New York attracted a large number of German immigrants. After the Civil War, millions of Germans immigrated to North America.
Among all the immigrations, German immigrants became the largest single ethnic group in the United States. Rockefeller was one of them. Germany had a great influence on the United States. Even JP Morgan chose to study in Germany instead of Britain in his early years.
However, there is a difference in this distinction. The Irish are not considered British. Although most of the Irish came to North America to speak English, they were excluded from British immigration due to discrimination. The Irish were not even considered a white group. For a period of time, only the Chinese intermarried with the Irish.
This is also a very normal situation. A long time ago, there was the Ottoman New Army, and the main component of the Ottoman New Army was Christians. Many of the Ottoman Grand Viziers were of Christian origin. In the future, there will be Eisenhower, Patton, the Japanese Army, etc. who will fight for the United States. Never expect that if a person leaves his country, his descendants will still be loyal to his original motherland.
Even though German Americans are the largest ethnic group in Europe, which is determined by nationality, this does not stop them from dismembering their own country. No one can escape this rule, no matter who they are, or even the Chinese...
Would Sheffield be indifferent to the current international situation just because his ancestors in this body were British? It was impossible. He wished that the British Empire would be destroyed immediately. When the interests were damaged, who would care where their ancestors came from?
The United States itself is a country of immigrants, but if you were to say which ethnic group suffers the most hostility, then there is no doubt that if we classify them by yellow, white, and black races, the ethnic group that suffers the most hostility and has the lowest ceiling must be the yellow race, even a hundred years later.
The black race is nothing more than a slave class to the white race, and overall, blacks do not pose a threat to the white race. However, it is different for the yellow race. Although white countries have an advantage over yellow countries, they cannot completely defeat them.
Sheffield also knew the history of a hundred years later. If it weren't for being politically incorrect, he really wanted to say that this judgment was very correct, and even far-sighted. The yellow race, or more precisely, the Republic, was indeed an unprecedented enemy. The judgment was not wrong at all, and could even be said to be very correct.
This is not disrespect for the previous life, but because he feels that the yellow race deserves this kind of defense. Why don't white people guard against the black race? The existence of useless people has never shown its own value.
This is not what Sheffield thinks. Given the current ethnic ratio in the United States, the yellow people should not be treated the same way as the black people, but the fact is that they are treated like this.
This situation is in line with the old saying, those who are not of my race must have different hearts! However, within the United States, this old saying is more appropriate than ever, and it is applied to the group that spreads this saying.
The more powerful the motherland of this ethnic group is, the more hostility this ethnic group will face in the United States. And there is no solution. Even Sheffield will be suspected of his loyalty to the United States if he dares to speak for this ethnic group.
This is the current situation in the United States, and as the mother country becomes stronger, these immigrant groups from powerful countries will only be discriminated against more and more. Of course, there are exceptions. During World War II, Germany's overwhelming momentum also affected the German immigrant group in the United States, causing the division of German immigrants.
There were even many German immigrants who returned to Germany to fight for their country. Of course, the result was that the German immigrants who remained in the United States brutally attacked their motherland, and their level of cruelty even exceeded the hatred of other ethnic groups towards Germany.
So there is no standard for judging this matter. The Rockefeller family is obviously a group of people who are loyal to the United States. They have completely cut off ties with their original motherland. For the Rockefeller family, other news about Germany is a distant past, and they are unwilling to mention this past.
Unless Germany is far more powerful than the United States, to the point where it can never be caught up, then German immigrants in the United States will have another trend of turning their hearts toward their motherland.
With Rockefeller Jr.'s arrangement, it was not difficult for Sheffield to settle down in Chicago and welcome the arrival of his German guests in this industrial center of the United States. Sheffield was not a German immigrant and did not need to pay special attention to the issue of cutting ties with Germany.
After waiting for a few days, Sheffield met the business representatives from the Ruhr area as he wished. At this time, Sheffield took on the role of Rockefeller Jr. a few days ago and led these German industrial representatives to visit the industrial center of the United States.
"With its vast territory, abundant resources, and powerful capital, the United States is truly a country that one dares not think too much about!"
"It is even more awe-inspiring than the UK itself. No wonder some politicians feel that the development of the United States has become a competition to European countries!"
Some business representatives in the Ruhr area whispered that they were deeply impressed by the industrial center of Chicago. The most shocking thing was naturally the huge scale. If this scale was transformed into the military field, how much energy would it unleash?
"You see, there are black people in all these factories. The United States is a country of immigrants, and its ethnic groups are not stable. Germany is full of Germans, and there is no such ethnic group in Britain and France. The loyalty of black people to the United States is very questionable. Moreover, these black people are not promoting national progress, but rather hindering it. This is a hidden danger in the United States."
Sheffield didn't know that the German technical experts he invited were currently speaking ill of the United States. But even if he knew, he wouldn't say anything. First, the European countries in the future are the true reproduction of what they are complaining about now. They emphasize diversity, and the United States is like a normal country.
Secondly, he has a certain understanding of the Germanic group. The Germanic group itself is a group that blames everything on the earth and the sky. Some people say that Germany dislikes the Republic, some people say that Germany dislikes the United States, and some people say that Germany dislikes Russia. In fact, all of these are correct.
When a German opinion poll comes out, the negatives outweigh the positives for all the participating countries, even their own country, Germany. There is just not a single country that the Germans like.
To be honest, I'm having some problems.
