Content blog 4: Describe Sisi, explain how she is an empire heroine

One of my favorite stories we read was about Sisi and Franz Josef. Sisi was a young 16 year old who travelled to upper Austria with her mother and sister Helene. Helene was to be the bride of their cousin Franz Josef. Franz fancied Sisi over Helene. Sisi was young and more appealing. She didn't go to all her meals and had an eating disorder. She did enjoy writing, and she was provided with a writing station. Sisi wished that Franz wasn't a prince. She was hesitant in marrying him even though she loved him. She didn't want to be a mistress and change herself to fit that image. At the Schonbrunn palace she felt like she was trapped in a cage. At the Hofburg palace Sisi was given more. She had bigger rooms and her own bathroom. She felt more comfortable here because she had more stuff at the Hofburg.
