The Balkans, a region shrouded in mystery and conflict, now faces a transformative era with the advent of new railways. Leaders from Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia, Kosovo, Bulgaria, the Ottoman Empire, and the Austrian-Hungarian Empire are united by the potential wealth that railways connecting East and West promise.
