Longing for news as one yearns for the stars and moon, the tidings of the Great Indian Rebellion finally reached Vienna in July, and Franz knew that the British were in trouble.

During this period, 40,000 British soldiers and 230,000 Indian troops controlled the Indian subcontinent. Since the beginning of 1857, there had been continuous reports of mutiny among the Indian Corps, but all had been suppressed by the British.

On May 10th, three Indian regiments initiated the rebellion, capturing the ancient city of Delhi and declaring the restoration of the Mughal Empire, which sent shockwaves throughout India and the uprising rapidly spread across the nation.

Without question, Franz fulfilled his obligations as an ally and immediately informed the St. Petersburg Government of the news. What would happen next was now unpredictable.
