Restoration of the Austrian Empire

About This Novel
The smoke of the Napoleonic Wars has not yet cleared. Metternich used balance of power diplomacy to push Habsburg, the eagle of the Alps, to the center of power in Europe for the last time. But the foundation of feudal conservatism has long been rotten, and the accumulated social contradictions are like lava underground, waiting to burst out with just a thunder. The revolutionary wave of 1848 swept across Europe. The barricades and gunshots on the streets of Vienna shattered the dream of the Holy Alliance and dealt an unprecedented blow to the decadent nobility and royal power. The water of the Danube River is no longer as clear as it used to be, and the empire, which was once prosperous, has long been crumbling in the torrent of time. The defeat of the Second Italian War of Independence and the disastrous defeat of the Austro-Prussian War were like heavy shackles, trapping this eagle that once soared in Central Europe in the shadow of the Alps. My name is Liang Chen. By an accident, I became the Ferdinand in the Habsburg clan who had never existed in history. The reverberations of the old era are still in our ears, and the clarion call of the new era has already sounded. Surrounded by European continental powers, national conflicts arise everywhere, revolutionary waves arise one after another, and feudal shackles are entangled. Standing at the crossroads of history, I have only one thought - to give this dying ancient empire a chance to survive in the age of iron and blood. (The story is purely fictitious and has no adverse effects. It analyzes capitalism and imperialism from a first-person perspective)
