History: For centuries, the Habsburg have used Royal marriages to secure new crowns, and territories to expand their realm, it is in fact, how they gained their modern home of Austria. Over time, it included Hungary, Croatia, Bohemia, and Silesia, but dark times were coming.
In 1740, Archduchess Maria Theresa ascended to the throne of Austria, becoming defacto Empress, of the Habsburg Empire. Within months, Bavaria, France, and even Prussia invaded Austria. At the peace of Breaslau, Austria ceded Silesia, some parts of the Austrian Netherlands, the rest of the Austrian Netherlands, to the Netherlands. At the peace of Salzburg, Empress Theresa granted the Bavarian Elector the title of the Great Bavarian King, in recognition of her right to the Austrian throne.
Now, as the age of the Napoleonic War rises, Kaiser Josef II, Holy Roman Emperor and Habsburg Realm must decide, whether or not to join the first coalition against the rising French Republic, and plummet Europe, into an all out War, the likes she hasn't seen for decades.
