Time Flies By

While Itami Riyo engaged in a campaign to destroy those who rebelled against her newfound power, Berengar was focused on the development of his Empire. The first Hydroelectric dam was being constructed, which would soon provide electricity to the city of Kufstein. As for the rest of the Empire, it was rapidly modernizing in its industrial and agricultural capacities. 

By now, animal power had largely been replaced on farms with steam powered tractors, and the cities were under reconstruction to allow for modern amenities like plumbing and other major conveniences. There were even magnificent statues made in the form of German heroes that had existed as cultural attractions. Soon, all the German cities would be as advanced as its capital.
