The Crown of Burgundy

France is collapsing. The July Revolution of 1830 has overthrown the old order, but in Dijon and Lyon the rebels seek more than a new king in Paris. They seek independence. Invited by nobles, merchants and revolutionaries alike, you arrive as Josef d'Auxois, a minor Habsburg noble offered a crown that does not yet exist. Unite a fractured land, negotiate with foreign powers, balance the ambitions of nobles and bourgeois politicians, suppress rebellions or encourage reform. Will you found the Kingdom of Burgundy, create a republic, or watch your dream collapse into civil war? The fate of a nation rests in your hands.
