post holy moly Roman Empire, elephant train heavy lifting equipment
left over from Hannibal is unneeded for SS skiers to do in Österreich
that folded before the thousand year Third Reich as damaged goods
which after the war victorious Allies land grabbed like Germany
— Vienna and Austria divided into one two three four sectors —
then when Stalin croaked it’s declared to be a “neutral country”
thus avoiding descending Iron Curtain less than velvet gloves.
