Overcoming Dread

While the war continued to wage in the East, Berengar had other matters to attend to. Governing an entire Empire that is at war with another industrial power was no easy feat. Even though the war was a large part of his focus, Berengar needed to keep his attention on a wide variety of issues.

Currently, Adela was working on the important task of setting up the Memorial Day Festival. Like the United States of America in Berengar's past life, the Reich had several national holidays dedicated to the military and the labor force. 

Memorial day was a time of mourning and remembrance for all those who had died in the many wars that Austria and the Reich had fought over the last fifteen years. However, it was also a time of celebrating those who had given their lives for the reich. Thus, there was a large festival and feast conducted in all major cities of the Reich that were held every year in the autumn.
