Strange case of near relations in European politics
The article discusses the uneasy ties between Austria and Rome amid Italian unity celebrations at Turin. It notes Austria's minimal participation in Italian industrial displays, the aging Emperor Franz Joseph, and the shifting dual monarchy under Archduke Ferdinand.
