What's this "diesel" you speak of?
Here in our glorious empire we just discovered the wonders of the steam engine, so I assumed that's what everyone was talking about, but it uses coal.
Speaking of which, it's truly a great wonder, but I feel we've yet to tap its true potential, imagine what it'll be like when the newly born princess Victoria reaches my old age... (Perhaps as Queen? Nah, too unlikely).
Now, if we do happen to have a Queen Victoria, it's very difficult to imagine what the world will be like when there's a Victoria II, and even further to a Victoria III (perhaps coronated on a sunny day in Barcelona?).
But that's probably just delusional at this point.
