Before building the Mahazangad City, a massive tropical and arid urban design competition was held in Germany. Ironically, the winner was the design work of French architects. It seems that the French know Madagascar best. His entry is called "Traveler Cannabi", which is a characteristic plant in Madagascar. Because the leaf sheath is cup-shaped, it can store a large amount of water, and its sap can also be drunk, providing emergency water sources for travelers in arid desert, hence the name "Traveler Cannabi".

The branches and veins of the traveling cannabis look very exquisite. The branches are like fans, and the vascular bundles are of course fan bones, and the leaf veins are also quite regular and symmetrical forked. This design mainly considers the strict water supply trunk and branch lines, which are symbolized by fan bones and leaf veins, and the water pipes are forked like the vascular bundles of the traveling cannabis. This regular and symmetrical design suddenly conquered the hearts of German architects and judges, and became a popular in Germany, and Tangning also liked them.

The design of the city is mainly the design of roads, water supply, and power supply pipelines. As for the buildings growing on these branches, it is much looser. The designer placed some of the various prefabricated buildings that Downing had invented and popular before on the renderings, including Japanese mortise-shaped wooden buildings, shell buildings, and membrane structures.

The traveling canna building complex may be the most regular city in human history. The Germans who love rigorously love it. The real estate industry in Mahazanga first developed and pre-sold many vacation villas. Its initial construction could accommodate 30,000 people in life, but all facilities could be expanded. As long as there is a demand for the built main road, a new "fan bone" can be built immediately. There were originally ten fan bones, each of which could accommodate 3,000 people in residential areas.

The residential area of ​​these 3,000 people is equivalent to a leaf, with 20 symmetrical leaf veins, each leaf vein can nourish 150 people. The residents with this leaf vein share a large water tower. If the main tap water road fails, the water tower can ensure that the residents of the "vein area" are not affected at all for two days. Such a distributed design can ensure the most important survival needs of residents.

Even in the Sahara Desert, there is water vapor in the sky, but most of them are evaporated by the hot near-earth air before falling to the ground. Therefore, if you encounter a fault that cannot be recovered in a short period of time, the water tower can also be equipped with an airship-style water collection system, which can be consumed by residents in the meridian area and restricted bathing.

Given that Madagascar is often hit by tropical cyclones, windmills that power Deutsche City must have sufficient hurricane protection capabilities, so most of them are designed to be balanced and firm H-type and Q-type. Like distributed water supply systems, windmills are also located in various veins, with the forks of the main road and the terminals of the leaf veins. When the main road of the power supply fails, the two windmills located at the beginning and end of the leaf veins can also shoulder the responsibility of ensuring residents' electricity use.

From the design point of view alone, Deutsche City is definitely the place with the highest quality of life in Madagascar. I believe that the super execution of German engineers and workers will not disappoint the rich people who pre-order vacation villas. Madagascar is a place with extremely inconvenient transportation. As long as the transportation route is sent to protect the important roads, the colony can basically be protected from attack.

On the other hand, with the assistance of the Windsor Empire, the "first air force", the life of the indigenous people was not so comfortable. Once the patrol airship found that a small-scale army was gathering near the colony, it would send a UH64 helicopter (a multi-purpose helicopter that loads a large amount of ammunition and is suitable for fighting enemies with backward weapons) to sweep. Just a formation of three or five helicopters can defeat the indigenous people's backward army and escape.

Soon, about a quarter of Madagascar territory near and north of Mahazanga was under the firm control of the invaders. A huge colonial construction will also begin. In poor Madagascar, there is no money to build real roads for a long time. The dirt roads look very interesting in the dry season, and when it rains, it becomes waste, and people walk on it like walking in a swamp.

The first priority of the colonists was to build a cement plant and steel plant to provide raw materials for prefabricated buildings and roads. The active and enthusiastic Federal Geographic Society soon discovered ilmenite because this ore contained weak magnetic properties. The exploration airship quickly discovered magnetic anomalies, thus becoming the first industry with economic potential for Madagascar. Its reserves are quite large, and this industry alone can make the colonists of Mahazanga rich.

Needless to say, titanium is a metal with excellent quality. It surpasses iron and aluminum in three important properties: high mechanical properties, light weight and corrosion resistance. In the future, high-speed aircraft use titanium alloy as the shell. Now, titanium dioxide compounds of ilmenite are called "the whitest substance in the world". Only 1 gram of titanium dioxide can apply an area of ​​more than 450 square centimeters to snow-white, which can be used in coatings and papermaking.

Ludwigshashi pigment manufacturer Badenaniline soda ash Company soon joined the industrial construction of Madagascar, which became the world's largest chemical company BASF in later generations. The discovery of ilmenite was purely accidental, but it once again stimulated the stock of Madagascar company, which seemed to confirm the legend that the Windsor consortium's sword would not be empty.

It seems that the metallurgical industry in Madagascar can supply sub-Saharan regions, while the North African market can be handed over to Italy, Israel, and Windsor consortiums to mediate internal market allocations soon. The Federal Expeditionary Force General Staff was stimulated by the discovery of ilmenite and increased its invasion efforts. The Expeditionary Force quickly approached Antananarivo, the capital of Madagascar.

The German army's storm of wind shocked the government of the Kingdom of Madagascar. After being stimulated by the whistling of helicopter reconnaissance, the queen and her brother, prime minister and husband fled south, and like the Brazilian emperor, called on all Madagascar subjects to vow to deal with the invaders to the death.

After the German army occupied Antananarivo, it announced internationally that Madagascar was the owner of the Madagascar Island and would implement a loose liberal policy in Madagascar, and all prisoners of war were released and the necessary money was distributed. This was the first time in history that a large-scale military operation was used to attack the main force. Its progress was rapid and announced the arrival of the era of air control.

The Blue Whale Class airship participated in the first war logistics. Its huge load capacity and speed of 100 kilometers per hour created the first record of invasion in core cities that controlled 600,000 square kilometers in history. An unusually arid areas have one advantage, minerals are easily discovered, such as Australia and Madagascar. The German Federal Geographic Society found that Madagascar is simply a mineral museum, with rare metals such as cobalt, nickel, platinum, zirconium and other rare metals, and even found that there might be oil. So far, the stock of Madagascar has risen tenfold.

Although these are good news, Tangning didn't take it much. He was concerned about how the large island, which is generally half a year in the dry season, will develop agriculture. This is a challenging issue. Agriculture is called the primary industry. If a place has no guarantee of food, it often cannot develop industry. Tangning believes that this is the biggest reason why the people of Madagascar have always lived on the brink of extreme poverty.

He found that the island of Horse Island was a very similar place to the Great Wilderness of Cerrado, Brazil. Baobabs are as numerous as termite mounds, and it is so outstanding that there are no decent plants around that can compare with Baobabs. After identification by botanists, these huge plants, which are generally more than 30 meters high, often have a lifespan of more than a thousand years! It is simply auspicious among the trees. Their elephant-like big belly stores 100,000 liters of water, which can be used for a family of five to eat, drink, defecate and sensation throughout the dry season.

The edible part of the fruit of the baobab tree is like a cube, which looks very satisfying and tastes good. Its leaves taste very good and can be eaten as vegetables. The only big problem is that it is not easy to collect fruits and leaves. They are usually thirty meters high, and the trunks are like bottles that can hold an elephant, which makes it difficult for monkeys to climb up.

The airship harvester, which is only able to create in Windsor Consortium, has become a historical stage so brightly. With this, the entire "non-agricultural area" shrouded in the highland rain shadow area has become a natural plantation. Thousands of years of life have given this strange tree super vitality. It also has thick wood trunks like tree species on the Cerrado wasteland, which can withstand the attack of wildfires, and its thick trunks can withstand the rampage of wind disasters.

The economic value that half a year of sustainable agricultural harvest can bring to local residents is enough to support the food expenditure throughout the year. The company only needs to hire a small number of farmers to support the residents of more than 100,000 square kilometers. Through redistribution, it is almost considered to be a primary industry to obtain all the labor force in the region. Thinking about it this way, it seems that the economy can really develop.

As for the central plateau area with sufficient rainfall, it is easier to do it. Even if you do nothing, promote the agricultural technology of the University of Munich, use high-yield seeds and high-quality fertilizer ratios, and Madagascar's agricultural economy can take a big step. A further measure is to transform the original, not flat and narrow terraces into high-standard terraces that can be operated on a large scale, and productivity will increase by hundreds of times.

The barren mountains may be due to various reasons, some are acidic or alkaline, and some are due to lack of nutrients, which can be revitalized through scientific transformation. Demand can best stimulate the development of science and technology. German engineers quickly created the theory of rebuilding mountains and fields and designed machinery that specializes in cutting terraces. These machinery can not only transport soil, but also screen out small stones in the soil and other factors that interfere with planting. Through specially designed and mechanically leveled terraces, they look incredibly beautiful in the air, and are simply Euclidean geometric patterns. The whole of Europe is excited by the upcoming era of mechanized terrace farming in Madagascar.

Not only the terraced fields in the central highlands, but even the tens of thousands of square kilometers of prickly forests in the southwest have gained new significance under the hands of the Innovation Master. Everyone knows that the hometown of cactus is in the desert. This most famous prickly plant has clearly mentioned what our prickly forests are used for. The prickly forests in Madagascar are a unique biodiversity prickly flora in the world. They are different from the cactus in the desert. They are not monotonous.

Whether it is trees, shrubs, vines or herbs, they are covered with sharp spikes. Whenever the morning is cool, these rare tenacious creatures on the earth are surprisingly collected quite rich dewdrops, which is comparable to the high-altitude remnants nets invented by Tangning. Their leaves are very small and hidden deep under spikes. It is difficult for ordinary leaf-eating animals to eat them than climb to the sky.

Due to the diversity of these plants, some species with good ornamentality and usability can be selected as fences in the courtyard. In order to achieve the extreme ornamentality, the Madagascar company's travel expenses invited a large number of German architects to visit the prickly forests and asked them to design the prickly fences.

The simplest and most crude design is to circle the prickly vines into barbed wire and place them on the top of the fence to prohibit climbing. These vines will gradually wither, so they are not perfect from an ornamental perspective. A better design is the wire mesh with fresh, independent climbing prickly vines. Tangning personally chose a very complex combination of prickly plants, including flowers, leaves and vines, as the fence of his personal residence.

The walls of Downing's Homes in London are invisible, which are "hidden walls" composed of rivers. Similarly, thorny shrubs that are more than one meter high can also be used as hidden walls. As long as their width is beyond the reach of ordinary people, they can still see through them. This is a better hidden wall than a small river. Because the river is easy to swim, and thorny shrubs are difficult to deal with.

Such hidden walls can be used in railways, highways and other places, which can block pedestrians who seek shortcuts without affecting the sight of travelers. They are ancillary facilities for advanced transportation. When building railways and highways in wealthy areas, the issue of scenery should be considered.
