Chapter 3391 The best time for Sinaria to join the alliance

"It turns out that Advisor Xia Duo also knows about Moon Shadow Island, so it will be much easier to explain next."

Mikael's expression relaxed, as if he had let go of some burden, and he continued: "Synaria on Moon Shadow Island was established almost at the same time as our current Ilfarang, but because the island lacks resources, its development is far less than that of the mainland. We have developed over time.

"Even though we tried our best to assist, before the establishment of the Northland Alliance, Ilfarang's own situation was not good, and Advisor Shado should be very aware of this.

"It was under such a situation that our two countries formed a formal alliance. The subsequent establishment of the Northland Alliance can also be regarded as a sublimation of our friendship."

It is true that Elfaran and Netheril are united to keep warm, but the establishment of the Northland Alliance and the sublimation of friendship between the two parties have nothing to do with it. It is the Drow War that contributed to the birth of the alliance.

However, Chateau did not point out the fallacy. Now he finally understood why King Ilfarang and a group of political advisors wanted to meet him in person.

Mikael has actually hinted just now - Sinaria wants to join the alliance, or in other words, Ilfaran wants Lascinaria to join the alliance.

There is actually nothing wrong with this. Big countries all want to enrich their wings, and the most direct and final way to enrich their wings is to find a younger brother and gain the other party's support at the alliance meeting.

When the Northland Alliance was established, Ilfaran suffered from the lack of any younger brothers, so he forcibly integrated the border human tribes with a total population of less than 200,000 into a country, and named them after his own country - Irusk.

Although the total population ranks at the bottom among the countries in the alliance, and is smaller than the total population of the independent Elam region not long ago, Irusk has caught up with a good time after all, and has the same voting rights as Evriska at the alliance meeting. country makes no difference.

In fact, if Evereska randomly sent a team of elite mages to Irusk, they could all be wiped out, but in the current alliance, order prevails.

The independent and sovereign status of a country has nothing to do with its strength. It is only related to the recognition of various countries and whether it has gone through the relevant procedures of the alliance. From this perspective, there is no doubt that Irusk is a country that is similar to Evereska or even Ilfran and Nai. An independent sovereign state with equal rights in Thrael.

Of course, independent sovereign countries can also have their own tendencies in foreign affairs. For example, Irusk, which is not yet self-sufficient and needs to take refuge in Irfalan, almost completely follows Irfalan in foreign affairs.

There were also attempts by Irusk executives to move closer to Netheril, which is also a human country, but Netheril still refused after comprehensive consideration.

The current Irusk is actually a carrier of voting rights at the alliance meeting. It itself has little value, and the vote in the alliance meeting is not worth falling out with Ilfran for Netheril. .

After all, both sides are still allies! In addition to the Northland Alliance Charter, both parties also have a private alliance contract. In this case, it is not difficult to decide how to choose.

At present, Ilfaran wants to let Sinaria join the alliance. This will undoubtedly increase Ilfaran's voice in the alliance, and the relationship between Ilfaran and other elven countries is not good.

Especially for Comanso, even if it has eased now, it is more at the official level, and public hostility and even hatred are still high.

Cormanthor, who claims to have inherited Arivanda's last glory, is actually inheriting Arivanda's blood debt.

This is indeed the case. After the destruction of Arivandar, many of the surviving dignitaries fled to Listal Forest, and now of course they are rooted in Cormanthor. This cannot be denied, and it is also difficult for Cormanthor to cut off. .

After all, the slogan of Golden Elf Supremacy has been chanted for so many years. Even if there are changes after the establishment of the Northland Alliance, people's perception cannot be changed in a short time.

In this case, Cormanthor will almost certainly become the biggest obstacle for Sinaria to join the alliance.

Moreover, it is still wartime, so the reason for refusal is even more natural.

Especially when Sinaria is suspected of becoming a medium for sea elves to join the Illuminati, Shado can almost imagine that most countries will not agree to Sinaria joining the alliance.

But now, the alliance has investigated this direction, and Moon Shadow Island is not a hidden place. Sha Duo has noticed when he traveled to the main plane before. As long as other countries have basic detection methods, it is not difficult to discover Moon Shadow Island and the places above it. of many elves.

In the mainland elven countries, especially Katemere in the south, almost 100% of the ancient families have the contact information of the sea elves. It is not necessarily necessary to go through Sinaria to find the sea elves.

Once it is later discovered that Sinaria is involved with the Sea Elves and the Illuminati, the possibility of it joining the alliance will be even lower.

As for why Cynaria must join the alliance, in fact, it is not necessary to join the alliance, but to maintain contact and trade with the mainland.

There are too few resources on the island. Even if the survivors brought resources from the mainland for development, it has been nearly ten thousand years, and no matter how much resources there are, they will be exhausted.

Shado estimated that Sinaria's basic resources were either obtained from Elfaran or from the sea elves, with the greater probability being the latter.

After all, as Mikael said, Ilfarang's situation in recent years has not been very good, that is, it has the advantage of a continental country, otherwise it might not develop as well as Sinaria!

Not long ago, the Alliance discovered the largest mithril mine in history in the Gray Peak Mountains. Preliminary exploration found that it is enough for the Northland to use for thousands of years. The mithril mine not only produces mithril, but also produces other metals, and even other Metal is the majority.

In this case, for Sinaria, there is one more reason to integrate into the mainland, and it is also very sufficient.

Because it is foreseeable that with the support of the newly discovered mithril mine, the alliance is about to enter the fast lane of development. If Sinaria fails to keep up at this most critical node, it may be difficult to integrate in the future. .

Even if it integrates, it may not be able to enjoy the welfare status of the current alliance countries.

For the current alliance, introducing a new member country is equivalent to one more person sharing the cake. If Sinaria cannot bring more visible benefits to the alliance, why should the alliance let them join?

At this point, even Shado, who very much hopes that the alliance will include all the forces in the main plane, has to admit that the addition of Sinaria is almost a purely negative benefit to the alliance.

Even taking into account possible future ocean development, Sinaria is not an indispensable or irreplaceable role.

Or maybe at that time, they will consider it more from a political perspective and agree to Sinaria joining the alliance to achieve the purpose of integrating domestic forces, but at least now there is really no need.
