In the center of Vienna's city hall, there was a large gathering of monarchs from across the globe. From the petty kingdoms of Europe, who bent the knee to the mighty German Empire, to the North African and near eastern sultanates, all the way to India, and beyond. If you were a monarch in this world who had even the smallest amount of respect from your peers, you were invited to this meeting. All except for one.
What was noticeable to everyone was the distinctive lack of representation from the Japanese Empire. A statement which spoke to the host's true intentions. Berengar had personally greeted all of his so-called peers and shook their hands. Welcoming them to the first ever international peace conference, which would go down in history as the Vienna Accords.
