Nearly six months passed from the time that Hans first inherited the throne from his retired father. And during this time, he had been closely monitoring the civil war within the Rus states. What became abundantly clear to the man was that the longer this war waged on, the more women and children that would be killed.
Thus, after six months of constant bloodshed, Kaiser Hans von Kufstein took the podium in the Reichstag, where he made his first declaration of war since ascending to the throne. The man was nearly forty years old, but like his father had inherited good genes, that made him look as if he were five to ten years younger.
Thus, he was still quite handsome, and unfettered by age, as he made his speech that would send the German Army into the lands that would one day be Russia.
