Re: Blood and Iron
Karl Wagner is a disgruntled middle-aged instructor at the Bundeswehr Command and Staff College. He finds himself concerned about the direction which the German nation is headed in—just as he is killed by a terrorist attack. Only to awaken and find himself reborn as an infant, Bruno von Zehntner, the youngest son of a noble family renowned for its part in the German war industry a few years after the founding of the German Empire. Bruno, as he is now known, desires to rewrite history and ensure the German Empire emerges victorious in the coming century. And in doing so, finds himself entrenched in a world filled with Blood and Iron!
The Altruism Paradox
The next day, everyone was in a much better mood, having slept off any negative thoughts regarding the horrific but accurate retelling of war that Bruno had shared during the previous evening's dinner.
And Franz Joseph had wanted to personally meet with Bruno, who had made a significant investment into Serbia's meat industry, one that gave him a significant amount of control over it. Because of this, Bruno found himself in Franz Joseph's personal quarters, where he sat across the Austrian Kaiser face to face at his desk.
The man was quick to break out an offer of an expensive drink, which Bruno politely declined due to the early hours of the day. After which Franz Joseph just blatantly came out and said what needed to be said, since Bruno was not willing to stand on ceremony with him.
