Kapitel 767: The Dawn of a New Era

Berengar gazed upon a map of Europe, which was sprawled out across the table in his war room. This map contained the current German Empire and its neighbors. From the Baltic to the North Sea, and all the way down to the Adriatic, his Empire stretched, uniting the German peoples of Europe into a single Empire. There was one notable exception: the House of Burgundy currently held onto the other half of the low countries, where the majority of its citizens were ethnic Germans. 

However, this was not a major concern to Berengar, as he just received word from the Papacy. Emperor Vetranis had predictably stabbed him in the back and ceded over control of Egypt, including the Kaiser's Pass to the Crusaders. Pope Julius informed him that he must withdraw his forces from the region, and surrender control of the Canal or face total invasion.
