Austria is uneasily located at the heart of Europe, flanked by Italy
and Germany on the one side and by Slovakia, the Czech Republic,
Hungary and Slovenia on the other. It is a natural bridge between
prosperous Brussels and impoverished Tirana, between a towering 
Germany and a cowering Serbia, between the Balkan and central Europe.
In its former incarnation as the Habsburg and capital of the 
Holy Roman Empire, Vienna ruled all these regions.

Today still Vienna itself is still like a medieval bastion.
Anachronisms abound, from antique decorations in otherwise 
ultra-modern buildings to forgotten catacombs beneath bank vaults and
subway tunnels. Honest-to-goodness castles and imperial palaces still
exist and stand side by side with ancient cathedrals, modern shopping
malls and sky scrapping office buildings. The city is more than only 
a natural hub between East and West Europe. It is also a pivot of 
Europe's organized crime and espionage. Albanian drug dealers clash 
with Ukrainian and Moldavian human traffickers and Russian KGB 
agents turned weapons smugglers, and there they face off with 
already established west European and Italian crime cartels.
