Chapter 21: Militarized Management

Within the Hechingen Military Academy, the students were undergoing rigorous training. The instructors, veterans of the army, enforced discipline with strict adherence to military rules, even utilizing rulers for punishments to maintain order during exercises.

The students sat in the classroom, attentively listening to their instructor, Ernst, who aimed to teach them about the Hohenzollern family and instill German cultural traditions. Language barriers were overcome using simple vocabulary and gestures.

Ernst began by explaining the concept of "family" and then delved into the meaning of "Hohenzollern." He associated it with "nobility" and emphasized the importance of "honor," relating it to high-ranking officials in their homeland, akin to "royal relatives."

He further clarified that "Sauron" was both a place name and the name of a noble family, the Hohenzollerns. Ernst, as a member of the Hohenzollern family, wanted the students to understand the significance of this name.

When one student admitted to not fully understanding, Ernst encouraged questions. He compared the Hohenzollern family's status to that of their homeland's emperor, drawing a parallel between the two.

Ernst went on to declare that the students were no longer subjects of their eastern emperor but were now citizens of Germany, with the German emperor as their new leader. He aimed to reshape their identities and values, preparing them for a unified nation with a pan-German cultural identity in East Africa.

This plan was part of Ernst's vision for a harmonious and stable future for the colonies, ensuring that there were no destabilizing factors when facing the challenges of the changing world.

Ernst continued to impart knowledge, essentially brainwashing these students to embrace their new identity as Germans and laying the foundation for a transformed society in the colonies.
