Synopsis

In France, just entered Versailles, with the identity of the Crown Prince.

The only problem was that the reigning king was Louis XVI, and in two years, he'd be "snapped"...

Since I couldn't rely on dear old dad and the ministers, I had to take matters into my own hands to reform France!

First, make a bit of easy money to solve the financial crisis that had plagued the nation for hundreds of years.

Then give a harsh lesson to those nobles harboring treacherous intentions and plotting to seize power.

Next, confiscate the Church's abundant lands, acquired without lifting a finger.

Industry, technology, agriculture, commerce—I will all advance side by side, I, the greatest Crown Prince in France!

That year, when the little British struggled with the allied forces at his borders, I simply took over his little island.

That year, my sword pointed at all of Europe, the magnificent feat Napoleon didn't accomplish, I will achieve!!!

What an unexpected gem. It's surprisingly true to the historical time period as well as offering many insights. Makes me brush up on my world history, just in case.

Masterful storytelling and translation work, as well as deep insightful pen work by the author, has translated this historical fiction into an deeply engaging, adrenaline pumping, action-packed story. There is no system (thank god; I think everyone is tired of the overly used troupe and clichés of face slapping), but with masterful use of language - both by the author and Faithfully translated by the TL, allowed arcs of the story to have similar scenes of "face-slapping". Additionally, the amazingly true historic resemblance of other fictional character woven seamlessly into the true historical background and characters. This story is an absolute delight to read! had me gripping the edge of the seat in every chapter, without sudden and obvious cliffhangers. Beautifully done TL. This is an absolute gem among the drool that is infesting this webnovel platform.

Full review below, but the first thing I need to note is that this book embraces antisemitic tropes regarding Jews, money lending, and international cabals manipulating things behind the scenes. The world background of this story is surprisingly rich in detail, which makes this crude antisemitism all the more disappointing. If not for that, I would recommend that people give this book a shot, even though I have serious criticisms regarding character development. The Crown Prince wants France to become the dominant power in Europe and is willing to kill (and let people kill each other) to ensure that it does. Beyond that, Enlightenment values, and some amount of naivete regarding women, he doesn't have much of a personality. In some ways, the details of his decision making process and world building can help make up for his lack of character development. Other characters are similarly one-dimensional. The translation of this book also seems to be MTL. The story is readable but some parts are painful.

My favourite book now, I like books like these, but this one is just written perfectly, not making the story too fast, nor too slow that you lose interest. No fantasy bull that just gives him a huge advantage, he's just a bit of a history geek, has a good grasp on where to direct, but can't just wip up a new weapon like it's nothing, research is still needed. has historical people in it, and events. Keep up the good work, it's all I read now.

My favorite book to read right now, it features an intelligent MC and shows how he navigates the oppressive political scene as a crown prince -as you've probably guessed-, it's been done really well and I highly recommend it to anyone who likes similar books or just bullying the British.

Like that each step in gathering political power is shown. Every reform takes time and faces opposition. This process is show here. This makes the novel kinda realistic which is rarely seen in historical kingdom building novels

diria que é um novel lenta, e com capitulos broqueados, ele em si parece que faz muito mas na verdade faz pouco, mas como é a frança evitar revolução é dificil mesmo, até o momento so teve 2 expansões militares, protagonista um genio militar e genio basico esperado diria que falta muito para ser uma de topo desse estilo, mas é razoavel

I have to say this work occupies the absolute top in the genre of history, if you excuse the tardy way the future knowledge is introduced, the execution of this knowledge is almost impeccable. The court intrigue, one upping between england and france and the way the economy is built from shambles is all I am up for. don't miss in this gem, have a read especially if you are a history enthusiast.
