"International trade..."
Adelaide was deep in thought and then shook his head; he knew more than anyone else in the room.
The Federation didn't yet have the basic conditions for international trade. The countries were already very dissatisfied with Bail Federal's neutral stance during the war. There was actually a deeper reason behind this.
During the world war, as a neutral country, Bail Federal naturally became a haven for much capital escaping the war, which would inevitably accelerate Bail Federal's economic development.
On one hand, various countries were shattered by the war, with declining populations and desolate lands, while Bail Federal's neutrality made them stronger and more prosperous.
This would make many warring nations feel a hard-to-describe displeasure, even the winning countries might feel that Bail Federal and other neutral countries stole the spoils of victory that should have belonged to them, and naturally wouldn't show Bail Federal any goodwill.
