Harry Potter Morning Light

Since the 1870s, Egypt has become a popular place for winter vacations for both wealthy and not-so-wealthy people.

Pomona looked at the Daily Prophet on the table. Its front page still had a moving photo, but it was no longer the lucky Weasley family who won the jackpot. That year, Bill was still in Gringotts in Egypt. While working, the Weasleys visited Bill and took a trip to Egypt.

Although Arthur was not rich, he tried his best to give his children a fairly wonderful childhood. The year after the Weasleys went to Egypt they went to see the Quidditch World Cup, which would have been a great memory if the Death Eaters hadn't turned up - except for Dally, who ate the fat the twins gave him. Tongue Toffee.

The wizard's jokes were not that interesting to Muggles. In order to cut off the pig tail that Hagrid had transformed into Dudley, Dudley had to undergo surgery. She could not imagine that after Dudley had a fat tongue, Vernon and Peregrine How did Nee treat Dudley.

No matter how Dudley looks to outsiders, he is their only son. Of course, the Weasley twins did this to relieve Harry's anger.

A sense of humor can help people socialize, but laughter can also be divided into good intentions and crazy. During the Battle of Hogwarts, when Neville walked out of the crowd limping, the Death Eaters all laughed.

She sighed. There was a silver snake-shaped pen holder on the table. It didn't belong to her. It was probably a gift from a Slytherin student to their dean.

It looked nothing like Nagini, but Pomona still thought of her, and Quirrell, who had all been to Albania.

There was a blood orc named Nagini who had been with Credence. Pomona didn't know if she was the one who turned into the snake.

Some things are very disappointing to mention. We all gather together for happiness, so why mention it? Such disappointing people should leave as soon as possible and leave the world in peace.

Pomona didn't want to disappoint others, so she would choose to shut up when she was with everyone, but she was alone now, and she could think whatever she wanted.

Ali Pasha is also an Albanian. This Albania is not the old name of Scotland. The Italians used Albania to invade Greece during World War II.

It is difficult to find out the early experiences of Ali Pasha. Some people say that he was a tobacco seller, while others say that he was born in a noble family. Because he was dissatisfied with the gentleman education of his parents, he did not like reading since he was a child. In 1801 he joined the Ottoman army and together with the British drove away the French expeditionary force.

In short, Egypt was in a power vacuum at the time, and he took advantage of this opportunity to become the governor of Egypt in the Ottoman Empire.

Egypt in ancient history was the granary of the Mediterranean. Although Athens has absorbed many craftsmen as citizens, Athens is not a handicraft center. Even those engaged in commercial trade are not Athenian citizens, but so-called strangers.

In the Greek world at that time, citizens had their own public obligations, especially in military city-states like Sparta. Spartan citizens were not allowed to do business, let alone farming.

Since citizens have various restrictions, foreigners do not have these restrictions, but they can engage in trade activities more conveniently. The island of Delos used to be a trading center, but it was neither the Delians nor the Athenians who controlled the Mediterranean trade, or their influence on trade was very weak until the Athenians moved the public gold of the alliance stored on Delos to Athens. Since then, Athens has become the trading center of the Mediterranean.

Egypt's geographical location is also the same. It could have been a transit point for trade between Europe, Asia and Africa, if the plan proposed by the French to build the Suez Canal or the British plan to build a railway connecting Suez and Alexandria could be realized.

However, Ali Pasha did not agree with the British or the French. He was worried that Egypt would lose its sovereignty and be subject to foreign economic penetration - concerns that were fulfilled by his successors.

He also did not want to agree to the Business Agreement of 1838, but in addition to the coercion of war, there was another reason. Not long after he unified Egypt, he carried out a series of domestic reforms. Everything had just begun to bear fruit, and there was also a lot of opposition. His people.

The consequences of the compromise, besides being devastating to Egypt's fledgling industry, were also land ownership. Originally, when the Mamluks, Ulama and other old forces were attacked, part of the land was distributed to farmers. The abolition of the tax package system and the replacement of individual taxes with taxes expanded the actual area covered by taxes. As a result, while the burden on farmers was reduced, national tax revenue also increased.

The Europeans aimed to put Egypt on a path of economic development that relied solely on cotton, thus reducing the planting area of ​​food crops. By the time of World War I, Egypt had become a food importing country.

It can be seen from the example of the development of the United States that cotton cultivation requires a large amount of credit for infrastructure construction. In 1862, Said Pasha began to borrow money from the British, and construction of the Suez Canal also started in the same year.

In the Bible story, Pharaoh listened to Joseph's dream interpretation and made adequate preparations for the seven years of famine. He did not let the country be destroyed by famine, and he also obtained a large amount of land.

The Egyptians had many nomads under the influence of the Ottoman Empire and the Bedouin, and their farming technology was still backward. During the lean years, these foreign banks would lend usury to Egyptians through expatriates to purchase cotton or land at low prices.

However, compared with the land annexation in Egypt, this was a trivial matter. By 1901, 50% of the land was in the hands of a few people.

These peasants who lost their land became agricultural proletarians. Unfortunately, because their country's industry had been destroyed, they could not enter factories like the British peasants after the enclosure movement. They could only work in the landowners' private estates and engage in Anglo- Similar work for plantation slaves in the American South.

However, although they were burdened with heavy debts, they could not be used as mortgages like slaves, which also led to many manor owners being heavily in debt.

At that time, three-fifths of Egypt's population enjoyed privileges and did not have to perform corvee labor, so these peasants were forced by Said to build the Suez Canal.

Apart from the plundering of Egyptian cultural relics in European museums, in order to achieve modernization as soon as possible, Ismail Pasha borrowed heavily from Europe, leading to the country's bankruptcy. At the same time, the exorbitant taxes and taxes borne by the Egyptian people were also extremely heavy, almost to the point where they could no longer survive. the point.

By 1883 and 1884, Queen Victoria was worried about the Ahmed Rebellion and the Mahdi Rebellion. At that time, a British garrison was trapped in Egypt. She asked Glades, the then Prime Minister, to rescue them. However, the Prime Minister at that time had to face A series of things such as parliamentary reform, in the end, only a general named Gordon could complete this mission.

That year happened to be a time when the Richard Parker case was causing a stir, and people were discussing whether this maritime practice should continue to exist.

People need to eat and drink water. The Suez Canal construction site was let people work without adequate preparation, which eventually caused the canal workers to collapse in pieces like wheat.

Although it is called the canal, it does not flow with fresh water. Originally, Richard Parker was so young. If he could hold back and not drink sea water, his chance of survival would actually be greater than that of the older crew members.

When Fleur Delacour complained that the food at Hogwarts was so greasy that she couldn't even fit into her dress, she could have chosen not to eat it.

But Pomona still chose to remain silent. What was the use of talking to a 20th-century French girl?

If you choose appetite, unless you are gifted, it has nothing to do with love.

If you choose love, you often have to control your appetite.

Can food bring happiness? Pomona herself sometimes doubted this. There were times when she was so sad that she couldn't eat. Food didn't make her feel happy.

If Nagini was once human and after she turned into a snake, she swallowed the body of Kharidi Babuji, would that make her happy?

When Neville slashed Nagini with the Sword of Gryffindor, Pomona seemed to hear a long sigh, as if someone had finally been relieved.

For a moment, she felt envious.

You are relieved, Dumbledore, but you have made many people suffer. It was a good show that you directed and acted!

Would you like to drink it now or before bed?

Pomona looked up. The old bat was standing at the door with a crystal bottle in his hand.

I don't want to drink it, she said through tears.

Then drink it before going to bed. He put the potion on the table. Why are you so sentimental?

You think I should be ruthless? she said coldly.

You should think more about yourself. He said softly, I can't take care of you forever.

She didn't understand what was so crazy about him that he had such an idea.

I look older than you, senior. He looked down at a point in the void. Others think I am your father.

Should she joke at this time, Who told you to grow old?

Who is that 'other'? she threatened.

What do you want to do?

Whoever dares to speak, I will use the fang curse on him.

He sneered, as if he thought she was childish.

Take the move! Pomona released a magic spell at the old bat, but he easily deflected it.

She recalled Hermione's exclamation in the Shrieking Shack after seeing Harry cast a spell on Snape.

How dare you attack the teacher?

Then she laughed wildly and continued to curse him.

Instead of getting angry, he smiled.

As for the things in the room that were damaged by the spell, no one cared about it.

Anyway, she could use the repairing spell later, and she didn't use dark magic.

Everything will be restored, just like Harry's glasses, which were always fixed by a clever little witch.
