The Empire of Austrian and Hungarian Tribes advanced dramatically through the years 425 BC to 50 BC. In circa 400 BC Jesus Christ was born in Palestine, and the secret of Monotheism spread quickly to the Austrians and Hungarians through Macedonia (just don't ask what the term "B.C." stands for - no one seems to know). In 300 BC a Christian fleeing the officially Mystical regime of Rome settled in Budapest and painted a stunning fresco in the Sistine Chapel there. His name was, of course, Michelangelo. The Pope of Budapest sent ambassadors of the faith forth to Germania, where the peaceful tribes received the message joyfully. Meanwhile, in the Middle East Islam was born, and Christianity was virtually wiped out of the place of its origin.
The Germans, meanwhile, advanced quickly in the faith and invented the science of Theology, which enabled the building of a massive cathedral containing a great organ played by that great German, Johann Sebastian Bach. (Baroque music, too, was invented around 100 BC.)
In other events, a brash Russian commander of a mounted lancer troop attacked an Austrian horsemen troop, killing them all. The Russian government profusely apologized for the behavior of their captain, and outfitted the Austrian Empire with another brigade of mercenary horsemen, in exchange for which the Austrians promised never to approach the Russian homeland again.
In 238 BC, the nobles of Carinthia and Budapest marched on Vienna to demand concessions from Vindobonix, the Celtic ruler of the area and self-proclaimed Emperor of Austria, Hungary, and Slavonia. His increasingly overbearing tactics in unifying the hinterlands into a single empire had provoked the nobility. Therefore, they forced Vindobonix to consent to a House of Margraves, which would allow the most important nobles to have a veto over policy. The Austrian areas were, of course, overrepresented relative to the Slavic and Hungarian areas. This oligarchic arrangement signalled the beginning of Limited, rather than Absolute, Monarchy in Austria. It allowed the nobles to undertake measures, such as enclosure, that rapidly increased productivity and the empire's population. Furthermore, both internal and external trade increased as some Austrian cities joined German cities in a Hanseatic League.
By 50 BC, the Austrian Kingdom was expanding rapidly, while strategic relations with the German Empire aided the development of technology.
