The Boers managed to fight a very effective guerilla campaign, with raiding parties blowing up bridges and railroads faster than their explosive stocks could manage. This turned out to be rather problematic as the Portuguese were now enforcing a blockade through Mozambique, completely strangling the Boer republics. Starved for anything else than bullets and food, the Boers continued heroically resisting the British as they lost all captured territory outside the republics themselves. Commando brigades of 3,000 each made life hell for the British and Canadians as they advanced, but despite everything the Boers could and did do, from better usage of the terrain to attracting foreign volunteers, the British still outnumbered the Boers heavily and after reinforcing, Britain was poised to launch offensives into the Boer Republics the next year.

The Gold Standard Act was passed, concluding a long debate and political battle over what exactly backed the United States Dollar. The transition was very expensive, but with the US no longer spending tonnes of money on backing bimetallism, the US treasury was relieved of a massive burden and the dollar found itself in a much more stable position. 

Agriculture is the basis of Mexico’s economy, employing most of the country and and generating most of the country’s income. As such, the Díaz regime continues to invest and attract foreign investment in these haciendas producing food and cash crops. Although the improvements are modest, the new cocoa plantations do succeed in bringing in more money.

The Mexican hinterland had long been infested with bandits, and as the 20th century dawned Díaz felt the need to extend his authority throughout the entire country. Doubling the size of the Rurales and increasing their pay to ensure their loyalty, these measures extended the iron grip of Díaz throughout the entire country.

President Sales was wary of potential financial troubles in his country and ordered the government to create a consistent budget surplus. Exactly how this was to be done remained in the dark, and not authorised to do anything the government did nothing to balance Brazil’s budget. 

The government further moved to promote industry in the country, which did not go unnoticed by the Colonels. While they were not particularly pleased with these developments, one of them saw his profits increased drastically by claiming funds to mechanically process his coffee. 

The Brazilian economy relied heavily on exporting raw goods, and to build upon this the President deemed it necessary to improve the nation’s export capacity. In line with this, the seaport of Rio de Janeiro was modernised, much to the benefit of the dairy farmers in Minas Gerais, but also to the British industrialists whose goods now swamped Brazilian markets.

Afghanistan reforms its administrative divisions, aiming to remove the burden –and power– of administering entire regions from local governors by delegating power to lower executives. While this went surprisingly smoothly, the reform of the Afghan National Police and the Internal Intelligence Organisation did not go over so smoothly. 50,000 former conscripts were made into police officers and made to enforce the law in distant lands. The result was that while these reforms were successful, the police officers were generally hard-handed and unfriendly. 

The United States kicks the war against the Filipino rebels into next gear, ordering its 30,000 troops on the peninsula to take the fight to Aguinaldo’s army. Whilst booking massive successes, Aguinaldo’s earlier decree that guerrilla warfare be the official strategy of the country was finally listened to, leading to a logistical nightmare for the US forces in the country, with ambushes and raids becoming the order of the day. It seemed to McKinley as if Philippine government would henceforth attempt to force a stalemate and force the Americans to withdraw.

Already known as Asia’s most powerful army, the Imperial Japanese Army began the year clamouring for increased funding so as to ensure that its soldiers received the very best of training. The peculiarities of Japan’s political system allowed for this change to be granted almost immediately, and the Imperial General Headquarters began to put it into good use. Training drills were held in the mountainous regions of Japan, where soldiers were taught to fight in some of the harshest conditions around. Although not all of the soldiers were fans of this brutal training, it nevertheless produced stronger men.

Having triumphed over the Chinese navy mere years ago, Japan now possessed naval predominance in the Asian continent – and was intent on solidifying this status. Subsidisation of the naval shipyards followed in conjunction with government investment, where money was put to good use in expanding the naval facilities of the Empire. This was a boon for the Imperial Japanese Navy’s latest naval bill, which proposed the construction of powerful warships to boost Japan’s strength at sea. With patriotism in the navy rife, there was no problem encountered in gathering the necessary men and materials, and production began immediately.

With the majority of funding having been spent on military matters, there was not too much left on other matters. The Japanese government desired to spend it wisely on boosting the national economy, and began to invest in the upgrading of their railroads. The latest materials were purchased in an effort to revitalise the older transport networks, and modern techniques in wiring were adapted from those in Europe. By the end of the year, signs of improvement in Japan’s transport network had begun to show.

With the Boer War in full swing, Britain was determined to gain the lands of the Boer Republics. To boost the amount of troops coming in the Ministry of Information decided to put on a propaganda campaign, showing Boer atrocities. The Daily Telegraph was heavily invested in spreading these rumours, whilst also attacking the liberal party for its anti-war stance. As a result of this, the liberal party rifted and an election was called in which the Conservatives and Unionist won a sweeping victory. 

Finally, the British Army was to undergo a massive reform as Army Council was created to govern the army and create a clear policy, ending the unclear balance of power between the War Ministry, the Adjutant-General and the Quartermaster General. In line with this, the post of Commander-in-Chief of the Forces was abolished and its responsibilities directed to a new General staff, tasked with preparing the army for war. This new system was instrumental in making the British Army a more efficient organisation

France embarks on a massive plan for naval expansion, laying down some twenty-five ships during the year. Whilst very expensive, and alarming to Britain and France, it was deemed necessary to protect French interests abroad. 

With the possibility of war with Germany in the back of everyone’s heads, the government approves a plan to massively expand the military industry at Saint-Étienne so that it could in case of war better cater to the French army as this year it was expanded With this move creating a lot of jobs, Alexandre Millerand proposes to create a bigger industrial base around Bordeaux. The realisation of this made the city an economic hub, but the weight of French industry was still in the north. 

After making the decision to pardon Alfred Dreyfus, the president lost popularity across society, but with the army in particular. Aiming to restore his popularity, Loubet toured the country. While the concern of an attack on him was always present, such an incident did not happen and the president ended his charm offensive without a scratch.

he German Emperor was a man who had always aspired for a strong navy, much like that of his mother’s. Backed by prominent individuals such as Admiral Von Tirpitz, his dream was one that would soon be achieved. A new Naval Law was passed in the Reichstag in the midway through the year. It called for the construction of a new range of ships no later than 1906, and would serve to merely affirm the moderate amount of ships called for in the First Naval Law. From battleships to cruisers, it ensured that the shipyards of Germany would have a busy time ahead of them.

Despite the scientific advances discovered not only in Germany but around the entire world, the state schools of Germany were unfortunately rife with conservatism and thus missed out on the benefits of modern development. It was a product of a bygone era which many of the brightest minds had sought to overturn, one of which included the Kaiser himself. Appealing to the Parliament personally, he asked for a new piece of legislation to be passed in which the schools would be free to ditch the conservative ways of old and bring about a new modernised stance. The Act, however, encountered stiff opposition. Only after several rounds of debate and immense pressure from the Kaiser did the School Act of 1900 get passed – albeit heavily watered down. Annoyed at the legislative process of the Empire, the Kaiser instead decided to take matters into his own hands. He announced a programme of donating from his personal wealth to some of the top colleges and universities around the nation in return for adopting a modernised programme. Naturally, hundreds of universities and colleges fought for gaining the the prestige of the Kaiser. This paved the way for proper modernisation to begin throughout Germany’s educational system.

The agrarian past of Germany was not one that was easily forgotten despite its recent industrialisation, and the Empire saw fit to begin new investment into the agricultural sector. It would not only provide for a boost to the economy, but ensure that Germany became a self-reliant country. The state began to offer subsidies to those farms willing to grow sugar beets, a plant entirely suitable for the German climate. Thousands around the nation accepted the offer. This was a process that was assisted by increased investment into the mechanisation of Germany’s farms. Millions were spent in overcoming the outdated farming techniques that still remained popular amongst a great deal of the conservative population, and by the end of the year the plan had reached success – the sugar beet had become the staple crop of the German Empire

Due to the deficit being only a year away from plunging Italy into debt, it was decided that imperative action had to be taken immediately. The Italian Parliament voted through a new law in the beginning of the year in which taxation upon both trading and tariffs would be reduced. The aim was to make for a more competitive environment in the Italian market, thus forcing local businesses to become more productive. It was a success, and Italy began to reap the benefits of capitalism. The effects were also noticeable in a newly announced imitative of the state, which hoped to bridge the gap between the poor south and the richer north by industrialising the south. The construction of state-owned factories was a resounding success, and even managed to attract local investors. The low corporation tax provoked the investors into fierce battles, which ensured that the region would enjoy immense industrial growth.

With Italian irredentist claims still lingering over both of its neighbours, France and Austria, it was deemed necessary that the Italian military was to improve drastically. A new training programme was introduced with the aim of not only increasing the skill of individual soldiers, but fostering loyalty to their country. Despite noticeable changes taking place in the effectiveness of the army, it was noted that the ruthlessness of the programme sometimes ended up lowering morale.

Education was also a priority of the Italian state during the dawn of the twentieth century, and recognising that too many children went without school, the state decided to stamp out the problem immediately. A new series of schools were constructed throughout the country, so as to ensure that children whether rural or urban could all receive education. The project was successful, with 1900’s enrolment being the highest Italy had ever seen.

The 19th century ideal of Scandinavism was brought to life once more, after an iniative by the Swedish-Norwegian Ministry of Propaganda printed out hundreds of thousands of posters, all with a focus on the common links of the Scandinavian people – whether they were historical, cultural, or religious. The movement grew surprisingly quickly, appealing to a wide range of people, and culminated in a grand parade in Stockholm attended by several prominent Swedes, Norwegians and Danes alike.

As a large country with a small population, it was vital that Sweden-Norway took steps to ensure their infrastructural links were amongst the best. Investment in the roads spanning the nation took the forefront of the state’s attention, with existing routes being improvised by the use of bitumen and new roads planned between pre-existing routes and those smaller towns which were off the grid. Hundreds of towns found themselves newly linked to the road network, providing a boost to the economy.

The Sick Man of Europe was one overcome by a debilitating illness, having fallen far behind the other powers in the last few decades. But his mind was still strong, and sought to revitalise the decaying empire into that of a modern state. By Imperial Decree, the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire therefore proclaimed for the immediate expansion of industries - a difficult task for a country lacking any real industrial base. Nevertheless, efforts were spent in opening factories in the centre of Anatolia. Although they paled in comparison to those of industrial Europe, they were still a sign of modernisation in the empire - and attracted the attention of many curious citizens, rich and poor.

Having fallen behind the powerful nations of Europe partly as a negligence of industrialising the homeland, it was increasingly obvious that Spain had to take actions so as to remain a relevant actor in European - if not world - affairs. A new plan was announced by the central government in Madrid, detailing the construction of factories all throughout the south of the country. However, as a result of poor economic planning by a few incompetent ministers, the effort failed to produce as many factories as the state had hoped for. Nevertheless, Spanish industrial capacity did experience mild growth.

Aiming to both subdue the restless region of Catalonia by bringing it closer to the capital, and to provide job opportunities for labourers and local Catalans alike, it was decided that a new rail network would span from Madrid to Barcelona. What ensued surprised even the central government, as thousands of labourers from around the nation turned up to lay down the tracks. The project got off to a roaring start due to the surplus labour, with several investors eagerly awaiting its completion.

Despite already possessing one of the better rail networks in the Balkans, Bulgaria was lacking in neither ambition nor the means to improve upon it. It was decided more had to be done to develop the military’s logistics, and to ensure that the people of the country were free to work where their talents could best be utilised. Funding was gathered so as to ensure the growth of the Bulgarian rail network, and it began almost immediately. The Tsaribrod – Sofia – Belovo line was connected to the Ruse – Varna line in the early months of the year, and the state began to look to connect other major cities to the lines. The effort was a success, with employment at an all-time high and the common people backing the project wholeheartedly.

Formed in 1899, the Bulgarian Agrarian National Union was initially a reaction to unfair taxation pushed by the Bulgarian government. As a peasant’s organisation, it led the country’s largest movement. With the election coming up and already possessing the support of the peasantry, it decided to form into a political party in early 1900 with the clear stance of challenging the incumbent National Liberals. Already wary of BANU, the government began to take action to deprive it of support. New initiatives began in order to support the farms of Bulgaria. Fertilisers were imported and subsidies were granted to farmers in order to expand cultivated land. However, a shortfall in funding meant that very few fertilisers were made available. Nevertheless the subsidies ensured that new farmlands were still created.

After occupying Bosnia for several years without any major flare-ups, it was seen as a rational choice by the Austro-Hungarian Army to begin the scaling down of stationed conscripts. Gradually over the year, up to 30,000 conscripts were given leave and allowed to return back to their homes or settle for a new life in Bosnia. This had the effect of not only reducing the military expenditure, but granting a boost to the local economy due to the surplus of labour now available to work in labour-intensive jobs such as those in factories or farming. This proved to be beneficial in light of the government’s investment into farming, where uncultivated lands across the empire were to be sown with crops of all sorts. Despite plenty of labour being available for the task, the farmland expansion was not as extensive as hoped. On the bright side the industries of Austria-Hungary received plenty of labourers from the disbanded conscripts, and productivity increased.

Possessing a long but underutilised coast across the Mediterranean, Vienna saw fit to begin tapping into its potential in order to stave off the deficit. New facilities were constructed alongside the coast, and merchant fleets proudly displaying the banner of the Austro-Hungarian Empire soon become an increasingly common sight across the Mediterranean Sea as trading links were expanded and diversified. It proved to be worth the investment, with immense profits soon flowing into the ports and the coastline’s economy revitalised.

Having felt in a generous mood, the Tsar sent forth his representatives to meet with the leaders of the Trade Unions in the industrial centre of Moscow. There, he sought a chance from the usual policy of oppressing the Unions to instead placating them, and by extension the common worker, with benevolent laws. The representatives made the promise of securing 10 hour long work days with guaranteed minimum wage, alongside holidays on religious occasions and even the right of paid sick leave. Although the Unions were overjoyed, they swiftly began to clamour for more rights. The meetings began to become lengthier and lengthier, with both sides growing discontent at the lack of progress. Ultimately, the government stood by its original offers – offers that the common worker found to be a grand improvement over the previous conditions. However, relations between the government and the Trade Unions were still fraught with extreme tension.

With almost the entire length of the railroad was built through thinly-populated areas in the impassable taiga, the Trans-Siberian Railway had so far been an impressive project. It had yet to finish its connection to Vladivostok as of 1900, and with a new decree, its date of completion would be pushed back even further. The administrators in charge had realised it would be beneficial for both the military and economy alike to lay down a second railway, thus allowing for travel in both directions. Courtesy of the Tsarist prison camps, thousands of new labourers soon arrived to the harsh lands of Siberia, where they devoted their efforts to both finishing the original line and constructing the second.

Having been the Minister of War since 1898, General Kuropatkin was keenly aware of the many problems that plagued the Russian Imperial Army. With the masses in the army suffering from such problems like malnourishment and poor living quarters, it was clear that this was a situation that could go on no longer. Reforms were announced in which the homes and barracks of soldiers and officers alike were to be improved. Furthermore, rations were made available to the soldiers in not only larger quantities but also a more varied diet, from proper meat to vegetables. Although not enough funding was available to secure such improvements throughout the entire army, it did make some noticeable differences in those military bases closest to the cities.

A survey of Serbia’s transportation network allowed for the government to begin focussing its efforts on the modernisation of its roads and railways. Areas which were lacking were quickly identified alongside those where the roads had fallen into disuse. Fully aware that a strong economy and a united nation require the infrastructural links to hold it together, Serbia began to immediately invest in the construction of new roads. Although corruption was a major issue throughout the project, it still managed to achieve success as several new roads stretching across the country were opened by the end of the year.
