While Frankszonia has its university, inherited from the Dark Ages it seems (especially when one considers the curriculum), the Hurtshog Fahrtz uses it primarily for training cadets in engineering, mapping, and staff work. Of course, it also produces a useful crop of lawyers and courtiers for those rare times of Imperial council and coronation ...
Otherwise, he's focusing his efforts at developing apprenticeship programs among the trade guilds and importing artisans of new industries ...
speaking of which, in addition to the ceramics, sausages, and foundry, I've decided to invest in bookbinding and printing efforts (after all the major book fair of Europe is held in Frankfurt).
