Hi, I wonder what Undertaker meant when he told Dietrich he had something to do in France

Business in France

YOU AND ME BOTH.

I'm reminded of the World Fair in Paris that really happened in Paris in 1889, but I think it was more like that spring? Anyway, s1 of the anime includes it, and that's partly why our earl and Sebastian go to France in the anime. That's where they start their battle against the queen and Ash/Angela, then it heads back across the channel and ends at Tower Bridge.

We also know that Queen Victoria was actively trying to strengthen her alliance with France at the time, historically. Relations with Germany (her grandson, Wilhelm II) were already strained by then, even though WWI wouldn't happen until more than a decade after her death.

Then there're all these hints the Phantomhives might have family ties in France. Lots of French names in the family, etc. And since they have informants who travel or live elsewhere, like Diedrich (Germany) and Chlaus, (traveling) but there's been no mention of their network of evil nobles in France, we might still meet them. That mystery lady with the fan (or even the guy with the large facial scars) could be a liaison in France.

Souvenir Box from the Belgian Village, 1934

I almost overlooked this one until my partner pointed it out to me. This claims to be from the 1933 World's Fair - also known as the Century of Progress International Exposition . Apart from a dysentery outbreak and the the ongoing depression associated with the Great Depression, the Rainbow City they built was a cheerful future outlook in an otherwise bleak time.
