Answer 81D:

The elected monarch of germany, Franz Joseph of Austria, has died, and its time for the german monarchical elections. Who will be the next emperor of germany?

The emperor's inside circle doesn't believe the man died of old age though: he was the picture of health, and a private autopsy has revealed he was poisoned. Foreign governments are suspected. The evidence points to France, their ally, which is odd. Do they feel a different emperor would suit their interests betters and allow them to be the senior partner of the entente? or are they being framed by someone who wants to see German and French relations chill? or even by an internal German faction that prefers Prussian dominance over Austrian?

The PC's must figure out who actually killed the emperor. And then they must figure out what 'truth' they actually want to present to the world.
