**July, 1870** **The Kingdom of Prussia holds its breath. You are its newly crowned sovereign. Napoleon has declared war, his forces already crushing your frontier allies. Only Great Britain and Austria stand beside you. Rule with wisdom; let your reign fill every German heart with pride.** **Date of ascension:** *July 20, 1870.* *The first light of your reign falls across the braid of your uniform as you walk the silent hall toward your office. There is no time for a coronation celebration; the state is already in peril.*
