Elements of becoming a political power?

1, the gradual optimization of politics is the premise of the rise of great powers. There is no doubt that a country's political stability, conforming to the trend of the times, plays a very important role in the rise of the country. Without good and stable politics, the country will bear great pressure and obstacles in the development of other undertakings. In the Netherlands, civil autonomy, the realization of purchase autonomy, and the subsequent Dutch war of independence and the abolition of the king were all the unification of the Netherlands, and finally the United Republic was established. Britain, the British civil war broke out, the Republic of England was established, and the glorious revolution won, and finally the parliamentary resolution was higher than the royal power, and a constitutional monarchy was established. In France, the people's uprising captured the Bastille, followed by the French Revolution, which established the National Assembly and overthrew the monarchy. In Germany, war is the unification of Germany, the establishment of the German Federation and the unification of Germany after World War II. In Japan, Emperor Meiji regained the executive power, and the emperor's theocracy was strengthened day by day. In Russia, in 1860, serfdom was abolished, an active asset revolution broke out, and reforms began. The October Revolution triggered by World War I eventually led to the birth of the Soviet government. In the United States, the war of independence, the establishment of the United States, the liberation of slaves in the civil war, and the realization of the reunification of the North and the South are all enough to witness that all countries should make political preparations before achieving development. Only when politics conforms to the trend of the times is the prerequisite for the rise of great powers. 2, the protection of human rights, the establishment and improvement of the legal system is the guarantee of the rise of great powers. Even today, as the ruled in ethnic areas, people need the sense of security given by this country, and the guarantee of this sense of security comes from the contract produced after consultation with the country. Therefore, it is not uncommon to fight for human rights and laws in the process of the rise of great powers. In the United States, the Magna Carta guarantees individual human rights and influences people's thinking. In France, the signing of the Declaration of Human Rights and Civil Rights established a society ruled by law, and denied the ideas of imperial power, privilege and respect for human rights put forward in the Civil Code. In the United States, the Mayflower Convention, as the first political contract in American history, highly emphasizes citizens' self-management. In the War of Independence, the Declaration of Independence was signed, and the equality of human rights was put forward. The first written constitution, the Federal Constitution, was signed at the Constituent Assembly, and the right of individuals to own land was guaranteed in the Homestead Law, which triggered a vigorous westward movement and objectively stimulated the leap of agriculture and industry. In Japan, the five vows emphasized the Meiji Restoration, the signing of the imperial constitution and the inviolability of the emperor's divine right, which led to the strengthening of early militarism and the invasion of North Korea. In Russia, the rulers introduced the legal system and drafted the code. It can be seen that the protection of human rights and the establishment and improvement of the legal system play an important role in the rise of great powers. 3. Extensive foreign trade and unique economic development model are the basis for the rise of great powers. We will hold this view in the past, now and even in the near future. The material basis is often the yardstick to measure a country. This also proves that economic development is the basis for judging the rise of a big country. Rotterdam appeared as an early fishing ground in the Netherlands. Later, developed stock exchanges and a banking system were established throughout the country. The state legislates to protect bank credit, establishes colonies extensively, and marches into the East. In Britain, the mercantilism, the rise of maritime trade and the government's support for predatory trade led to the expansion of commercial colonization. Under the leadership of Charles de Gaulle, France established extensive diplomacy, started NATO and established a unique development model. In Germany, the obstacles of customs clearance, tariffs and national customs union will be eliminated, and finally economic unification will be realized. In Japan, extensive diplomacy has been established, and the state has led industrial development, entered a leading economic development mode, set up factories, supported private enterprises and established joint-stock banks. In Russia, the extensive establishment of factories and the timely application of new economic policies have consolidated state power, improved people's living standards and achieved economic recovery. At the same time, re-establish the economic system, introduce commodity and economic mechanisms into socialist construction, implement a five-year plan, and develop a planned economic development model by means of national macro-control. The United States introduced the financial and fiscal system, and the securities market, exchanges and banks flexibly used the development model of combining national macro-control means with market economy to achieve economic leap. It can be seen that extensive foreign trade and unique economic development model are the basis for the rise of a great country. 4. The state's attention to talents, education and scientific and technological achievements is the key to the rise of a great country. Scientific talents are a key to promote historical development, and it is particularly important to attach importance to talents in contemporary times. Of course, in the process of the rise of historical powers, these talents who have played a role in promoting historical leap are also favored by rulers. Similarly, education is no exception. In the early Netherlands, because people created new methods to dissect fish bellies, the fishery in Rotterdam developed earlier, and the improvement of ships and the increase of fish bellies were more beneficial to overseas trade. At the same time, China also attaches importance to traditional education. In Britain, the rapid development of textile industry stimulated the invention of new textile industry and power machine. At the same time, Britain has actively promoted the high-tech development strategy, strengthened the protection of intellectual property rights, and famous scientists in China have also promoted the development of entrainment science. At the same time, give high respect to intellectuals. As well as the introduction of the concept of time, the improvement of transportation also played a stimulating role. In France, the cultural thoughts of the national team are highly valued. In Germany, the state attaches great importance to the cultivation of national quality, popularizes education widely, respects academic activities and gives material support to academic circles. In the second scientific and technological revolution, scientific and technological inventions generally appeared. Although Japan was defeated in World War II, the existence of soft power such as science and technology and talents made it re-enter the ranks of powerful countries. In Russia, Peter the Great constantly sent overseas students and established a wide range of schools. During the Soviet period, in the development stage of the first five-year plan, the movement of production technology innovation was widely popular. In the United States, only by actively introducing industrial achievements and talents can we achieve a leap in science and technology, and the application of electricity triggered the second industrial revolution. The establishment of the National Patent Office provides legislative guarantee for the establishment of the patent system. 5, timely participation in science and technology and industrial revolution is a necessary factor for the rise of great powers. History seems to be a trend, and the trend is erratic. In this trend, some people choose conformity, while others choose rebellion. There is no doubt that you can live by following the trend of the times. In the process of the rise of great powers, many countries just follow the trend of the times and take the lead. In Britain, the first industrial revolution made it an early world hegemon, and at the same time made the world its factory and trade market. In France, influenced by Britain, it has also achieved rapid development. In Germany and Japan, they took advantage of two revolutions and gave them all the advantages. In the United States, due to the development of the electric power revolution, the second industrial revolution made it the hegemon of the contemporary world. These typical examples are the development opportunities provided by history for human beings, and what determines whether human beings can accurately seize the historical opportunities. 6. The strategic thinking of rulers and leaders is the vane to guide the rise of great powers. Rulers and leaders often play a leading role in a country. A good strategic decision and a forward-looking strategic goal often play a vital role in the future of this country. In Britain, it is because of Elizabeth's unique strategic vision that British maritime trade has developed so vigorously. In France, thanks to the leadership of Napoleon and Charles de Gaulle, France has always been one of the signatories. In Germany, it is because of Bismarck's "iron and blood policy" that Germany can develop strongly. In the early days of Russia, it was precisely because of the reform of Peter the Great and Catherine II that Russia always maintained its position as a historical power. In the Soviet era, it was precisely because of the knowledge of Lenin and Stalin that Soviet stationery became the first in Europe and the second largest country in the world. In the United States, it is precisely because of Roosevelt's New Deal that the United States can get rid of the economic crisis as soon as possible, achieve economic take-off and become the world hegemon. These typical examples are enough to show that a strong leader plays such an important role. 7. Geographical advantage is an important objective factor to realize the rise of great powers. As we all know, good geographical conditions are as important to the rise of great powers as the talent of newborns. The Netherlands is located in the northwest of Europe, facing the sea. Under the influence of the Atlantic warm current, it is conducive to the construction of ice-free ports and the development of fisheries. This is especially true for Britain, which has more unique conditions as an island country. France is located in the west of Europe, near the sea. The Mediterranean climate is conducive to the growth of succulents, provides conditions for the development of animal husbandry, and is also conducive to overseas trade. Located at the crossroads of Europe, Germany is rich in inland navigation and plays an important role in East-West communication and economic development. Japan, due to the influence of Japanese warm current and the conditions of Japan as an island country, provides a platform for the development of fishery and maritime trade. Russia spans Europe and Asia and absorbs nutrients from all over the world. The United States has a vast coastline, far from Europe, and avoided the interference of war during World War II. Geographical advantages The objective factors of a country's rise also play a role. 8. Strong military power. To become a political power, military strength is the most important guarantee. You may be economically powerful, but the only thing this society can say is force. Force is what political powers must pursue. To sum up, there are many conditions for the rise of a country. First, the gradual optimization of politics is the premise of the rise of great powers. Second, protecting human rights and establishing and perfecting the legal system are the guarantee for the rise of great powers. Third, extensive foreign trade and unique economic development model are the basis for the rise of great powers. Fourth, the state's emphasis on talents, education and science and technology is the key to the rise of a great country. Fifth, timely participation in science and technology and industrial revolution is a necessary factor for the rise of great powers. Sixth, the strategic thinking of rulers and leaders is the vane to guide the rise of great powers. Seventh, geographical advantage is an important objective factor to realize the rise of great powers. Eight. Military strength. The above is a timely summary of my understanding of the conditions for the rise of great powers.
