The Austrian First Danube Steam-Navigation Company (Erste Donaudampfschiffartsgesellschaft – DDSG) was founded in Vienna in 1829. The company started as a small business with just 1 steamship in 1831 but developed quickly into a large passenger and cargo transportation firm operating with over 150 vessels in 1848. At first, only a few national lines were established, but the services extended beyond the Austrian borders in 1834. Due to the significance of the company for the economic and transportation policies of the central government, the most important statistical figures related to the achievements of the corporation were published in the official Austrian statistical yearbooks (commonly known as the Tafeln). Data analysis demonstrates huge difference in expansion of the shipping network and the volume of transportation in various sections of the Danube.
