[Pride and Prejudice] The Bennet Family

After transmigrating into the world of Pride and Prejudice as an eldest daughter who never existed in the original novel, Clarissa Bennet begins preparing from childhood for her family's precarious inheritance.

The world in the book broadly follows the course of history, with a few differences. In the post-Napoleonic era, the global order is on the verge of being reshuffled and rebuilt.

Beyond the peaceful countryside, new technologies, ideas, and theories are taking root. The first wave of the Industrial Revolution is about to sweep across Europe.

Founding factories, investing in cutting-edge science, promoting parliamentary reform, fighting for women's rights... Clarissa discovers that she isn't working alone. Her sisters are her steadfast support.

Gentle and resilient Jane devotes herself to charitable work protecting women and children.

Sharp-tongued Elizabeth gradually gets involved in lobbying and public speaking.

Mary uses graphic storytelling to create musicals and hold the line in public opinion.

Lydia and Catherine have a keen eye for fashion and transform into a pair of sought-after star designers.

The Bennets become the only family in British history to establish themselves in high society through their six daughters.

When Clarissa Bennet is lost, she never turns to other people's famous quotes or deeds for guidance. Instead, she writes in her diary:

“Clara, history is a precious gift left to you by those who came before. Your achievements are built upon this treasure.

Do not grow arrogant or conceited. Remember to do something for your brothers and sisters who have shed blood and tears, and to speak up for the women forgotten in the corners of history.”

“Don't worry, Clarissa. I've always kept my promise to myself.”

An alternate Europe, with a slightly adjusted timeline and original worldbuilding.

If you haven't read the original, you can treat this as a transmigration-to-Europe, Industrial Revolution-era story about a tycoon building an empire. It won't affect your reading.

No breaking up canon couples, except Lydia's.

Theme: Ideals make the world a better place.
