"The Inspector General," a major work by the famous satirical Writer Gogol.
This work is like a mirror, reflecting the ugly nature of the dignitaries of the time, thereby exposing the darkness, decay, and absurd reactionism of the serfdom society.
The Vladimir Empire in this world is very similar to a certain serfdom Empire.
The same militarism, the same darkness and decay, the same Empress ruling.
Compared to the Vladimir Empire, Sussex is definitely considered incorruptible and ethical.
A smile does not appear from thin air, nor does it vanish without trace; it simply transfers from one person to another.
Seeing the Rurik People suffer more, the Sussex people would laugh happily.
They might not dare to curse their own country's greedy officials to their faces, but they do have the courage to angrily denounce the Rurik officials.
And they would do it fiercely.
