章 389: Designing the Electric Telegraph

Over the past few years, since Berengar first began to introduce modern chemistry to the alchemists who had gathered in Kufstein, they had managed to produce a significant degree of a great variety of chemicals. So much so that a portion of the industrial district was dedicated to chemical engineering. 

The chemistry Labs had grown in size and staff as more alchemists fled from the german regions to Austria in search of a better life. When these alchemists arrived in Kufstein, they were properly instructed in the field of chemistry and inspired to give up on their primitive notions of gold conversion and immortality. 

For the most part, Berengar allowed the chemists the freedom to make their own discoveries; due to this academic liberation, these brilliant minds could rapidly advance the field of chemistry. In doing so, they managed to discover and create many of the chemicals necessary for advancing into the Industrial Age.
