Dear Journal,
Having just restored the French boundaries and the Bourdon Dynasty, we Prussia have finally come to a balance of power amongst Russia, Austria and Great Britain. We are now currently looking out against France and created a kingdom out of Belgium and Holland. A conflict is beginning to form because we want control of all Saxony and only received two-fifths. Being a woman during this time, I am able to see the outside picture and the large conflicts amongst the countries. Having not much freedom to speak, we as women and householders are beginning to form our own point of view. Fighting and campaigning for more rights everyday, such as equal education and work for us, is taking place. Still to this day we are not capable of owning any property. We do have control of how money is spent within our families and household decisions. I have a strong love and care for children and only want the best for them.
Fondly,
Lilly – of an aristocratic family living in Prussia.
