The Miracle of Electricity

While Wolfgang was awaiting trial for his crimes, Berengar was busy with more important tasks. He did not bother interfering with the trial. The judicial process existed for a reason, and he knew the man would be found guilty. What mattered to him was the fact that his Hydroelectric dam and power station had just been completed. Kufstein and the surrounding areas now had access to plenty of electricity. More than they could possibly use if Berengar was being honest.

This created the perfect opportunity for Berengar to introduce a technology he had been wanting to create for a very long time. Until now, it had been difficult for the German people to get any work done when the natural light of the sun faded at night. The people of Germany still relied on primitive devices like oil lamps to see in the dark. Well, that was about to change as Berengar was currently working on designing the first ever light bulbs.
