Establishing a nation overseas? The Americas would be the absolute new continent! We'd overcome any obstacle to conquer it. Many say Australia is better, but it was discovered by the Spanish and Dutch long ago. That place is over 90% desert; in the early Age of Exploration, it would have been a worthless wasteland nobody wanted. The smallest continents in the world—North America, South America, and Africa—are all far better than Australia.
The suspension of the voyages to the West had objective reasons: a few people benefited while the vast majority suffered losses. After all, it was an official organization, and ordinary people could not reap the benefits.
The Han King was like this before he traveled through time, and he's still like this after he traveled through time. Didn't you come here for nothing?
If you want to establish a base overseas, ports near the Strait of Malacca are the most suitable, such as Palembang and Singapore. The idea of establishing a nation in Australia is absurd. Northern Australia is all rainforest, and the interior is all sand. Only eastern Australia is suitable for rapid development, but the soil fertility is very poor, making the conditions too bad for agriculture.
Those who clamor to establish a nation in the Americas are indulging in unrealistic fantasies. Do they even know how vast the Pacific Ocean is? In the age of sailing ships, it took Asia a year to travel to the Americas and another year to return—a two-year voyage! Without steamships, immigrating to the Americas and establishing a nation was just wishful thinking!
Just say it out loud, everyone'll laugh at you, why are you doing it so secretly?
For establishing a nation overseas, North America is undoubtedly the chosen land. Other options can be abandoned; North America is the foundation for world domination.
I hope the protagonist can establish a country overseas, wage war, colonize, and so on, rather than just wandering around abroad and then returning to the comfort zone of the Ming Dynasty.
I've never understood why something that's been cut up gets featured on the recommendation list.
This novel was pretty good, why did they stop making it?
