"Ambassador Aland, both railways and telegraphs are what we need, but we also need military equipment to resist invaders, otherwise we cannot even guarantee national security, and we have no intention to build our own country." John IV said.
Aland: "I understand Your Majesty's concerns. Our East Africa will make some preparations to ensure your country's security!"
How to ensure the safety of the Abyssinian Empire? That naturally involves resolving the current military conflict between Italy and the Abyssinian Empire.
Therefore, Aland's promise is very important to the Abyssinian Empire, as the Abyssinian Empire alone definitely cannot reach a consensus with Italy.
Of course, extending such treatment to the Abyssinian Empire is related to the importance of the Abyssinian Empire to East Africa. The Abyssinian Empire is the only large country with a population in the tens of millions whose trade is monopolized by East Africa.
