Chapter 79: The Darkest Parliament

The Frankfurt Preparatory Committee, with all five members wearing very sour expressions, faced a vehement protest from the Austrian Delegation, founded on the premise that the Austrian Empire was an indivisible entity.

The representatives for the Frankfurt meeting were allotted based on population, theoretically electing one delegate from every fifty thousand people. If areas outside the German Region weren't excluded, the meeting would be dominated by Austria.

During this period, Schleswig and Holstein, both sub-states, were still under Danish control, and Austria still had control over portions of the Italian Area. In terms of population, Austria exceeded the total of the Lesser German Region.

The protest was one thing since regions like Hungary truly didn't belong to the German Region, and they were not afraid of a drawn-out dispute.
