In Chapter 101 yesterday, the one that promoted it referred to football.

Despite all Franz's efforts over the years, he had failed to spread football throughout the German Confederation, yet the bicycle, a mere means of transportation, accomplished it with ease.

At first, I wanted to write a passage about promoting football, but then I felt it wasn't quite appropriate and deleted it. I didn't delete all of it, though, which is why this awkward situation appeared.
