Creating an Industrial Empire in 19th Century Parallel World

In a tragic accident, mechanical engineer Poul Nielsen and his best friend, civil engineer Jonathan Axelsen, are killed when a truck crashes into the coffee shop where they were hanging out. Suddenly, they find themselves transmigrated to a parallel world in the late 19th-century country of Avalonia. In this world, they'll need to work tirelessly to earn enough pennies to survive. But they won't settle for just getting by - they want to become the Edison, the Chrysler, the Rockefeller, the Carnegie, the Ford, and the Westinghouse of this new world. In a world without electricity, Poul and Jonathan decide to start an electric power distribution company. But that's not enough - they also want to build appliances and motors to make their business profitable. They see the opportunity to revolutionize ground transportation, and they start an automotive manufacturing company. They tackle huge infrastructure projects such as metro stations, skyscrapers, bridges, tunnels, and dams by starting their own civil engineering firm. They even invest in the arms manufacturing industry. But the road to success won't be easy. Fierce competition awaits them, as robber barons are willing to do everything to crush their competitors. Predator against predator, and government intervention. Poul and Jonathan must use all their engineering expertise and business acumen to navigate this treacherous landscape. Join Poul and Jonathan on their journey to become the wealthiest men in the world in a parallel universe where anything is possible.

In the White House

Days before the meeting, the Axelsen & Nielsen Arms Manufacturing Company was receiving messages from the Kingdom of Sardinia, the Ottoman Empire, and the Republic of France about an acquisition of AN-M1 rifles. Those countries are the allied forces determined to stop the expansion of the Russian Empire and to protect their interest in the region.

Now they can't do that if the Russians wield a superior rifle than them. So, not only does this present a huge opportunity for their arms enterprises to grow, but it is making their name in the arms industry known around the world. 

And at this rate, the Axelsen & Nielsen Arms Manufacturing Company may soon take over the top spot in their enterprises, which right now is being held by the Axelsen & Nielsen Air Brake Company.
