I, transformed into a vampire girl, sparked the Industrial Revolution.

Chapter 144 A Tribute to Her Excellency President Alice!

With the state apparatus functioning normally, everything Alice created has finally become a reality, and the world's first great power has been born. Singing and dancing fill the land of the Amerlan Federal Republic. The war is over, and a better life beckons to them.

The city of De la Leyé was established in the Île-de-Las ...

In designing the main roads, Alice, based on existing conditions, established the principle that "there must be an underpass or overpass within 500 meters." Drawing on the experience of the Trian urban planning plan, Alice also designed inner and outer ring roads for the city. The main urban area was designed to serve administrative and commercial functions, as well as high-tech industries such as scientific research and the tertiary sector.

In the inner ring of the city, Alice also designed a university town, where many institutions of higher learning, such as the Amelansi National Union University, will be relocated. Part of the central research facilities, including the Amelansi National Academy of Sciences, will be moved to De La Rai, the future capital.

Alice focused on the human touch of the city during the design process. Outside the CBD with its towering skyscrapers, Alice advocated the construction of low-rise residential buildings and a large number of high-rise low-cost apartments in and outside the city's first ring road. Alice wanted to do her best to avoid the emergence of so-called slums and to take care of the lives of people from all walks of life to the greatest extent possible.

Apart from Progress Avenue, which will be used for future military parades and is only one kilometer long, the widest roads in the city will not exceed 45 meters.

Wider roads are not necessarily better. Overly wide roads are not only impractical but also clash with the surrounding low-rise buildings. The city of De La Leyé will build a large number of low- to mid-rise residential buildings. These buildings may not be grand or imposing, but they can carry the memories of citizens about their lives and growth.

Cold steel and concrete cannot support dreams; only a love for life and passion can.

At the central level, Alice designed a massive administrative complex—the Amelansi People's Building, the Amelansi Administration Building, and a series of military and political residences, including major departments such as the Secret Intelligence Service and the Ministry of Emergency Situations. Alice designed separate offices for them.

In the suburbs, Alice designed two airports, North De La Leyé Airport and South De La Leyé Airport, which guard the capital. The new airports were designed using the concept of a transportation hub, with an underground railway connecting the two airports. Two railway stations were also set up in the east and west of the city, De La Leyé East Station and De La Leyé West Station, which were connected by an underground railway.

Public transportation is also an indispensable part of urban life. Trian’s experience shows that public transportation is undoubtedly the public service that can best alleviate urban demand in modern life. The whole city needs at least 2000 stations and more than 150 bus routes, and taxis are also essential.

Underground, the city's subway system is an indispensable part. The city's planning is so large that it must have more than five subway lines, many of which must cross the Seine River, a long river in De la Leyé.

Anyway, this great city will take five years to build, but Alice is ready.

"Ahhh, little Alice, are you ready?"

"Waaaaah~ Aren't I the president? Why do I have to wear clothes like this?"

A grand ceremony was held in Trian, a power transfer ceremony and declaration of national change established only among the upper echelons of officials that would shake the world.

Alice was naturally dressed in a pure white princess dress, and on her head she wore the [Crown of Rule] that she had taken from the vampire lord.

This small crown is a ring, which is made up of a tube filled with an unidentified golden substance that is transparent on the outside and golden on the inside. The crown is decorated with gold and silver.

Alice was eager to find out what this thing was, but she couldn't. The ring was unbreakable, uncut, and magic had no effect on it.

She had no choice but to give up, and now Alicia wore it on Alice's head as the most beautiful decoration.

"Ladies and gentlemen, great citizens of Amelia, today is a momentous day in the history of our nation. Great Amelia has entered an era of revival, a brand new era!"

Alicia led Alice into the Trian Conference Building, which was bustling with people, including socialites, high-ranking officials, and media reporters. The walls were decorated with the Amerinsky tricolor flag, and the honor guard stood tall and proud, holding their rifles straight.

Amidst the crowd, Alicia, dressed in splendid attire, entered with elegant steps. Alice, though unwilling, had to comply with Alicia's request and act as an elegant lady.

"Well, Lady Alice, this is really awkward."

"Isn't that right? But it's good this way, isn't it? Putting aside her daily work, our Miss President is indeed exceptionally beautiful."

"Citizens of Amelancy! Today, a brand new future unfolds, and we are about to face a new era fraught with challenges! And for the future of our nation and people, I, Alicia de la Leigh, Her Majesty the Queen of Amelancy..."

The venue fell silent. People held their breath, trying not to miss a single detail. Those who knew the inside story simply smiled silently, while the media reporters were so nervous that their cameras trembled.

"...I will pass the throne to my daughter, Alice de la Leigh!"

The crowd erupted in debate and cheers. Although most people had always hoped that Alice would seize power, they never expected that day to come so soon. Some reminisced about the past, some were overjoyed, some looked forward to the future, and some shed tears of sorrow.

However, Alice accepted the crown, but instead of wearing it on her head, she placed it on a table that had been prepared beforehand. On the large table was a cushion and a book with a brown cover.

"Citizens of Amelansi! Our nation is about to face a new future. The old system is no longer suitable for the times. I, Queen Alice de la Leah of Amelansi, declare that in order to better serve the country and the people, and for a new future, I will abdicate and establish the Federal Republic of Amelansi. And I will assume the presidency of the first Federal Republic of Amelansi!"

The outcry from the crowd reignited the atmosphere. Alice's reign as queen lasted only five seconds. The queen and the royal family were no more, but she still held power.

This strange approach sparked nationwide discussion, with progressive thinkers praising the act and revivalists overjoyed at the restoration of the ancient republican system.

However, there were also dissenting voices. Alice picked up the brown book on the table, and the title "Constitution of the Federal Republic of America" ​​suddenly became clear to many people, who realized that this was a move that had been in preparation for a long time.

“Miss Alice Delalaye, please raise your right hand.”

Alice raised her right hand and held it next to her head as prompted by the ceremony officiant.

"I solemnly swear that I will faithfully perform the duties of President of the Federal Republic of Emelansi, do my utmost to uphold, safeguard and defend the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Emelansi, dedicate myself to the country and the people, and remain loyal to the country and the people."

"I solemnly swear that I will faithfully perform the duties of President of the Federal Republic of Emelansi, do my utmost to uphold, safeguard and defend the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Emelansi, dedicate myself to the country and the people, and be loyal to the country and the people!"

A burst of tricolor flowers erupted, and Alice's white princess dress was replaced by a black suit, with a white, blue, and red sash slung across her body. She held the Constitution aloft.

"Long live President Alice! Long live the Federal Republic of America!"

Someone started it, seemingly a fanatical progressive thinker, who waved his fist and cheered loudly. Three-colored flowers danced in the sky. Alice took the three-army command sword, a symbol of military power, signifying that the president held power over the three armed forces.

Ameliancée proclaimed to the world the birth of a new federal republic, which, despite its authoritarian nature and the fact that it was born from the actions of a princess, had nonetheless taken a small step toward a future that belonged to the people.

"Greetings to Her Excellency President Alice!"
