Bebel und Bismarck plot

On July 19, 1870, France declares war on Prussia. August Bebel and Wilhelm Liebknecht, both representatives of the Socialist Workers' Party, are on their way from Leipzig to Berlin to give their opinion on the war in the Reichstag. Although the French emperor was the first to declare war, German Chancellor Otto von Bismarck provoked it. Several attempts by the workers' parties to prevent the war still fail. Von Bismarck manages to get all MPs with him, but Bebel and Liebknecht continue to resist.
