This is our second attempt at a short run as Legitimist France to restore the House of Bourbon, who ruled France prior to the French Revolution. With the experience of the previous run well in hand, I'm going to be more focused on increasing the power of the interest groups in government that support the House of Bourbon, as well as being more conscientious about weakening the ones that will support our enemies, the House of Bonaparte and the House of Orleans.
Episode nineteen sees increased French aggression in South America, where we wage a short war on Venezuela to turn them into a protectorate. In political news, we shift our tariff policy from Protectionism to Mercantilism, and on the economic front, we commence another massive increase in the overall mechanization of the economy, including building up the industry to meet our new, more automated needs, eliminating a ton of labor jobs, lowering taxes, and increasing standards of living.
Episode Timeframe: March 1877 - June 1879
