Christening the SMS Linde

In the docks outside the city of Trieste, lie a massive warship. This vessel had been under construction for between two to three years, and now, after substantial effort, it was finally completed. In Berengar's past life, historians would have referred to this vessel as a super-dreadnought, and rightfully so, as it dwarfed the thousands of other ships in the harbor. 

This warship would be the first of many such vessels to replace the existing Adela-Class Armored Frigates that saw common use in the German fleets. In the Adriatic, there were three German Shipyards, all of which were dedicated to the construction of Linde-class Battleships. The SMS Linde was the first to be completed, with the others following in the coming days.
