Family Issues

Berengar sat within the confines of his study. In his hands was a gilded chalice which contained a drink of fortified wine. Nearly half a year had passed since Berengar had unified the German Empire beneath the banner of Austria. In this time, Berengar had spent nearly every waking hour overhauling the government of his Empire. 

Progress was slow, but by now the Feudal Nobility had lost most of their previous power, and in its place, the semi-constitutional, meritocratic government that Berengar had already instilled in Austria spread to the rest of the Empire's borders.
