Rule Germania!

In the center of Kufstein lie a Theater Hall, which had recently finished construction, and tonight was its grand opening. Because of this thousands of people from across the city had gathered to witness the masterpiece that was written and directed by the young High Queen of Austria. 

Whether it be commoners or the nobility, all would gather together to witness the brilliant play conducted by the talented actors and actresses who lived within the Kingdom of Austria. For the Grand Opening of the Theatre House, Adela had constructed a play based upon the Battle of Teutoburg Forest. 

This was a battle fought in ancient times by the Cherusci Chieftain Hermann, also known by his Roman name Arminius, who led the Germanic tribes to victory against three Legions of the mighty Roman Empire. In Berengar's previous life this battle was used as a propaganda piece for centuries, and he intended to make use of it in this timeline as well.
