Consolidation of Power

News quickly spread of County Lothar's execution and the forfeiture of his lands in favor of Berengar and his Dynasty. In the year since Berengar had been reincarnated into this world, he had gone from a lowly Baron's son to the Count of Tyrol.

The young man was quite satisfied with his accomplishments, and despite his grand ambitions to unify the German-speaking regions, he knew these plans could not be rushed. As such, while the rest of Germany was at war, Berengar was tasked by Duke Wilmar to protect Tyrol from potential enemy advances through the Bavarian alps, which he was more than happy to do.

Now was the time for expansion, not just in military matters but industrial, agricultural, and educational sectors as well. Thus Berengar was hard at work putting through a series of executive orders, which allowed him to bypass the rudimentary parliament he had constructed.
