In order not to derail another thread over the matter of railway gauges, German mediators have taken the initiative to discuss the Latverian - Wachovian Conflict at another place - right here.
So far, this is what is known about the tensions and emnity between the Latverians and Wachovians. We would be obliged if you could shed more light on the origins and current developments of the matter:

Ah, but what is really important is, like hands, Latveria, has bigger guage railroads, which the women love to ride, compared to Wachovia's small, narrow guage. :nod:
von MarwitzPah! The Latverians have always been braggards with nothing much to show for it. Bigger gauge railroads they have, but being inept and corrupt as they are, the only railway line worth mentioning runs from their captial inland to the principal seaport on the coast.
The ingenious Wachovians, on the other side, have realized the importance of railroads decades, not to say almost two generations before the Latverians. They have established a railway network that connects all places of importance. And they managed to do so without much support from abroad, which was also the reason that they decided to develop it as a narrow gauge.
This narrow gauge railway network finally enabled the Wachovians to put on hold the notorious intrusions and cattle thefts by the Latverians because they could now concentrate forces quickly to face or cut off the intruders. The labor forced from the countless captive Latverians in the Wachovian mines and quarries has gone a long way to develop the Wachovian economy and to teach the Latverians their place. :readit:
