Chapter 75: Chapter 75: War Must Serve Politics

Mr. Kossuth was not an economist, and neither were the high-ranking officials of the Republican Government; they had no economic sense whatsoever, they simply never considered what 200 million shields meant for Hungary!

Just because they didn't know, didn't mean everyone seated was unaware. Howell, the representative of the banking consortium, questioned:

"Mr. Kossuth, do you know what 200 million shields mean?"
