Wien, 12. Oktober 1856


Railroad expands to Klausenburg



Ruthenian capital is incorporated in to the iron grid. The last spike was driven on the 6. Oktober at the new Klausenburg station. Works will continue for another 6 months as the yard is completed and the nearby depot is connected. The mayor pointed out that this line will make Klausenburg the gateway to the east, the trading hub between Wallachia, Russia and Moldavia, making it as rich as the cities closer to Wien. He also issued a statement of condeming the opposition, saying that this railway is the proof The Empire cares about their eastern provinces and praised our Holy Emperor and his minister von Büol for the honor.


Rapid industrialization of Steiermark



The mineral wealth of Steiermark promted the most blessed Emperor to concentrate the Empires assets in making the province a steel powerhouse of Austria and Europe. The architect of the project, minister von Büol decided that the proximity of the heart of the Empire, ore sites and developed railway connections make it ideal for steel and steel products production.
Critisism was abound as some believe that such a slav province is not to be prioritized for industralisation. Von Büol responded by saying that it is more efficient to move products over the entire Europe than wagons of ore across the Empire.
Some of the inteligensia raised concern that such rapid growth will drive inflation up to which von Büol answered that the Empire has enough gold to fix such problems before they may cause damage.


Diplomatic tour of South America



The Imperial passenger ship Grossvenedig set sail today towards Columbia with a majority of the Austrian diplomatic core including von Büols personal assistant, count Richard Belcredi. The first stop of the tour is Caracas and should reach it by 20. Oktober.


Bountiful harvest of 1856



The summer of 1856 was sunny with frequent rain and the harvest is above average. Interior minister Baron Alexander von Bach boldly remarked that the average yield was three times than that of the previous years and with correct distribution and storage we should prevent famines in the next decade, no matter the future weather.
The Austrian Empire has been truly blessed
