Principia Moderni (Map Game)

Principia Moderni, or "The Beginning of the Modern" in Late Latin, is a map game beginning in the final days of the Middle Ages in Europe, and the early days of the Ming dynasty in China--1420 C. E...The House of Hohenzollern have become the Electorates of Brandenburg--though most of the power in the Holy Roman Empire still lies with the Habsburgs, Joan of Arc has defeated the English at Orleans, the city of Tenochtitlan is founded by the Aztecs, the Timurid Empire has united Central and West Asia, and the Yongle Emperor sends out Zheng He to voyage westwards. It is a turbulent era, in other words, an era of change, and an era in which power is cemented.

 * Naples uses the funds from the reparations from the Swedish war to repair all damage they recieved from the war. They use the extra (that would have gone to fix the boats, but Sweden did it for them) to expand their army. They focus on the forces trained to defeat colonial uprisings. Speaking of colonies, Naples expands both of their colonies by 400 square kilometers. Ricasolia is getting closer and closer to being connected between the two parts, and many think that soon it will be contiguous. Meanwhile, Istoias expands northward along the east coast of Madagascar by 400 kilometers squared.
 * China honors the new deal with Manchuria and increases military presence in Manchuria for the protection of China's new vassal, while recycling the troops in Aztec lands with some troops from China. Lines are resupplied and the Chinese make considerable gains against the Aztecs this year. By the end of this year, the last Aztec Emperor is killed and the Aztec empire surrenders.
 * Checking the third archive. Turns out I had destroyed the Aztecs last algorythm. Check the very bottom. I was just making a new algorythm before I noticed it.
 * In the Commonwealth, new King-Emperor Frederick II is angry that the Swedes refuse to hand over control of the Netherlands, instead offering back territory that already belonged to the AGC. However, he offers to only take Friesland and Groningen, allowing Sweden to keep their major ports. Meanwhile, Atlantis expands by 25*50 sq km, making it officially larger than Neue Brandenburg.
 * Look you gained East Oldenburg which was meant to be Swedish and also Prussia; a compensation of 2 million kronars and the free rebuilding of your navy to 1690 standards. Is that not enough??? All I get of you is only Jutland and a bit of Holstein... and check the map!AGC.png
 * The Vietnamese continue their campaign of military expansion. They request that the Swedes accept the Anglo-German terms, as they are much better than anyone in Sweden's position can expect.

 * Swedish king Charles X states enough is enough and rejects the AGC territorial claims. He asks Frederick to recheck his atlas before making false claims. The AGC is already getting the same amount of territory off Sweden to compensate for Jutland and also 2 million kronars and a complete refitting of their fleet. Sweden asks AGC also not to go into Dutch areas. Sweden and Denmark embark on military expansion. Asgard is expanded by 2300 sqkm.

 * France has no problem. It will be ally of Sweden anyway.
 * Venice continues to upgrade its military by building the wall however just at the end of the year the original plans are cut down so that the construction can be finished next year while the walls will not be as impregnable as planned they will provide a decent defencive structure.
 * The Incas continue to upgrade their military and expand their homelands. A great Incan general begins to settle the quarreling tribes, by killing their leaders primarily, or by burning their villages. The new leader rules by an Iron fist to regain control of the Incan empire.

 * The Persian government, aiming for a widespread empire, increase the size of their army and prepare an invasion of the Indian States.
 * Katimon expands west along the southern coast at 1000 sq km. Bi Hloa expands east along the south coast at 500 sq km. Hanthawaddy upgrades its economy, repairing the damage over the past several years.

The new age of art and literature begins to show signs of bringing about a more individualistic and Western outlook on life.

1691

 * China sends supplies to the former Mayan and Aztec lands for rebuilding. Most of the military in the area is sent back home, while others decide to volunteer to be part of the growing militia. In China, a party for the military is thrown. The heavy support for the military and a wave of nationalism strikes China, boosting the economy. This boost is what saved China from going into a financial crisis due to the long war.
 * Russian Tsar Peter I Hires European Generals To Train New Russian army in the modern style. Russian Cossacks succesfuly Capture All land west of Baikal(one of the main reasons being sparse population, and I have been expanding here for a long time). Russian Schools. Russian Tsar Peter Founds Moscow State University(starts building) and Hires Isaac Newton to be a proffessor in the Russian Academy of Sciences. The Academy is to be a separate institution than the University. Russian Tsar Peter sets out to improve the overall Russian way of life and Bring it up to European standards.

 * The Venetians finish the smaller wall and upgrade their infantry again by increasing the ammount of nobles and therefore the army. Cinque isole gets an influx of settlers and expands 1550 sq km.
 * You aren't allowed to just take over another user's nation like that, without at least bringing it up on the talk page. If Kunarian really did request you take over his nation, you should ask permission on the talk page first.
 * Naples expands their military, creating a whole new force designed for land combat and occupation. As this force is being built, both Istoias and Ricasolia are expanded 400 square kilometers. When the force is finally done, they assemble outside of the city of Brindsi. Angelo goes to the city and looks over the new force, and he is pleased. He then goes to back to the house of a nobleman nearby. However, as he enters is room, a servant woman pulls out a throwing knife and hurls it at Angelo's neck. The king is killed by the attack, and the assassin leaps from a window. From examining the dead body, the Neapolitan officials realize it was really a man in disguise, and he was of North African descent. A sorrowful and enraged King Carlo VI later announces to his allies that they determined that the man was from Hafsid Tunis. He wrathfully declares that the Muslim Hafsids struck down his father because he was a Christian monarch. Naples declares war upon the Hafsid sultanate, regretfully informing their allies in Algeria that they must concentrate all their forces upon annihilating this nation that dared to strike down their king.
 * Persia declares war against Kashmir and begins to siege the capital. The Kashmiri armies fight off the Perisan Army, but outnumbered and outpowered, they fall to Persian forces. In a few months, the Persians take over the capital, along with half of Kashmir. The remaining part holds on against Persia.
 * I wish it was that easy, but we've got an algorithm for war. To add to that, taking an entire nation in one turn is very implausible. I'll plug in an algorith for you against Kashmir ASAP, though. CrimsonAssassin 22:31, October 19, 2011 (UTC)
 * O.K. I am very sorry. I will revise my move. Thank you. RandomWriterGuy 22:39, October 19, 2011 (UTC)
 * As Minister of War, I help with/do the algorithms and you have annexed 27.7% of Kashmir. If you attack them again in another war within 100 years you will probably be able to overthrow them.Scandinator 12:48, October 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * The king James I of France transform the algerian territories under his autority in the Sultanate of Algeria, ruled by the sultan Suleiman, who was allowed to rule the vassal state, if in exchange allow the french control, the christian missions and respect the rights of the christian people in the Sultanate (the king of France will do the same with the arabic people in his realm). The half of the algerian territory is given to Burgundy. The colony of Malouinas is expanded 2000 sqkm. The prince Jeanne convince the king James to send troops to support the neapolitans against the Hafsids.
 * The Algerians have not been fully conquered as due to Naples leaving. You can only annex 18% therefore the total is 31% which does not meet the required target of 33.3%. 
 * Commonwealth King-Emperor Frederick II decides to accept the Swedish terms simply to avoid another round of war with the Swedes. He accepts the French trade agreement but says that he cannot assist in Algeria because his troops are just finishing a war of their own. More settlers begin to move into Prussia as it becomes a part of the nation. Neue Brandenburg expands by 10*50 sq km.
 * Sweden and her vassals send aid and supplies to Persia, France and Naples. Denmark and Sweden continue military expansion.

 * The Vietnamese declare war on the Irish after an Irish warship sank a ship containing an important diplomat on his way to Vietnam's local allies. The Irish had continued to kill any shipwrecked Vietnamese sailor found on Irish territory, and this incident was the last straw. With Venice occupied with their own problems, the Vietnamese take the opportunity rid themselves of their Irish issues. The massive army created for the Persian War is deployed to Furansuchou to invade the fanatical theocratic Irish dictatorship.

1692

 * The Vietnamese army makes landfall in Ireland and begins the invasion of the theocratic dictatorship. The Vietnamese send an ambassador to Persia to try to solve the diplomatic issues gathered over the last 15 years.
 * China will accept the deal in exchange for eastern Khasakstan. However, they offer a strong economic alliance with Russia. Meanwhile, rebuilding in Dōng guǎngchǎng (Mayan/Aztec colonies) continues.make it west changitistan and we have a deal. Il post a map before 5:00 EDST(-4h UTC)...so 9:00 UTC? I will probably post it...before 5:00 EDST(Eastern Daylight Savings Time)
 * Sounds good. Where do you want the split? OTL borders?
 * Here's a first draft of the map. Its prety much liek OTL. you can change some stuff, and the west part is purely for teh conveniance of having Kazakhstan and Russia Proper attached by land.
 * Looks great. However, the area touching the Caspian Sea is pretty important. If I give that area up, could you send me some tech when the industrial revolution hits (Beijing in the red area of the industrial revolution spread map)? I'd also like to propose a military and economic alliance.
 * as long as its only beijing because of very increased trade. and alliances accepted.
 * DealDivision_of_Stuff_copy.png
 * France expands Haiti 2000 sqkm. The sultan Suleiman and the king James send troops to support Vietnam, and asks the vietnamese and hanthwaddian help in Algeria.

Though I do not conquer the whole Algerian territory, the territory under my control undergo the changes I previously mention.
 * Sweden and her allies attack Ireland in support for Vietnam. Unfortunatly a Swedish navigator made a mistake and lands in Scotland which is promptly invaded by part of the Swedish army and its allies. The remainder of the army reaches Ireland and attacks the Irish. Holaand expands by 2300 sqkm. New Denmark expands by 50 sqkm.
 * It's not Scotland, is Ireland.
 * ​Before advancing anymore throughout Kashmir, the Persian army occupies the conquered area to search and destroy any resistence. To prevent uprisings in the area, the Persian government passes a law that gives religious and racial tolerance to everyone.
 * Start with religious tolerance. Religious equality is unheard of.
 * I am very sorry. Thank you.
 * Hanthawaddy exemplifies a transition into a more individualistic lifestyle as a large number of Mons in cities begin to purchase other buildings as property, submitting many to servitude. Bi Hloa expands east by 1000 sq km, and Katimon north by the same amount. Some people living in Toeh Ngoa Nyoing become concerned with overfishing near some towns, and thus, several laws are enacted governing when commercial fishing can take place.
 * Neapolitan troops seize the Island of Malta from the Hafsids, and use it as a stepping stone as they attack the Hafsid nation itself. They send a naval fleet to begin to bombard Tunis in order to take the seat of the Hafsid government. The Tunisian fleet is weak and easily destroyed by the fleet from Naples. Troops land in Hafsid territory in order to launch a massive land attack and cut Tunis off, but they are unused to the terrain and do not advance very far. They thank Sweden for their aid in the war, and state that they do not fight in this war due to a desire for territory. Therefore, they will not take all of the conquered territory, and will give some to any Christian allies that aid them in the war.

1693

 * The Vietnamese conquer the Irish capital of Dubh Linn, and the remainder of Irish reistance collapses. The Vietnamese put the Irish High Chieftain and the rest of the Irish ruling elite on trial for the numerous crimes that lead to the Irish War. They also find evidence of scores of hideous crimes inflicted apon their own people. All of the people on trial are convicted and sentanced to death by hanging, which is carried out on the anniversary of Venice's disgraceful interferance with the rightful outcome of the war. Most of the Irish national government is executed to prevent a potential Venetian-backed coup from taking place. The members spared by Vietnam are the ones who expressed regret for their government's numerous crimes. These people have agreed to exile in any one of the Vietnamese colonies as part of their punishment. Most chose the Vietnamese Carribean colony due to its tropical temperatures.
 * Naples sends word congratulating Vietnam on stopping the rogue Christian nation of Ireland. Meanwhile, they continue to send forces to Tunisia to avenge the death of their beloved king. King Carlo VI states that the Crusade has already begun, and these wars against Algeria and Tunisia are the battlegrounds. He swears that the Hafsids will fall, even if it requires Naples ending the current war and building up their military for a second war. Unlike the Persians in Kashmir, religious tolerance is no aspect of this crusade, and mosques and Qu'rans are burned by the Neapolitan forces in their rage, with thousands of civilian casualties. They seek to avenge the Muslims' murder of their king upon the religion. Just want to make sure that everyone knows that I am not some crazy anti-Muslim, just the Neapolitans in this game are.
 * Naples can annex all of the Hasfids.
 * The Anglo-German Commonwealth declares its support for the Vietnamese invasion of Ireland, as truthfully the Commonwealth has wanted to do the same thing for a long time. In the North, the Scots become more warlike as their major enemy falls, and in Northumbria there are fears of a Scottish invasion which are luckily unwarranted (for the time being). The Commonwealth military is built up in case fo Scottish invasion.
 * Swedish parlimentary officials are horrified when thry hear of the accidental diversion of part of the fleet. However as reports arrive on the Swedish victories in Inverness and Loch Ness the tension disappears. In Ireland, Swedish troops land in the north and south. Belfast and Cork fall to Swedish forces. Sweden asks the AGC and France to help take out the rogue state of Scotland. Sweden proposes to split the British Isles in this manner. Sweden is shaken by the sudden unexpected death of Queen Ulrika Eleonora. Sweden however still manages to expand Hodlaand by 2300 sqkm and Denmark expands New Denmark by 50 sqkm.
 * The Vietnamese give the Swedes a counter-offer they will recognize the Swedish claim to Scotland in exchange for Swedish recognition of the Irish claim to all of Ireland. ^They offer to purchase the territory Sweden took in Ireland for a very generous price, as they had basically conquered Ireland before Sweden invaded.
 * Deal. Only if you help me take over Scotland. Also the AGC can receive all of England if they help.
 * I've pretty much allready conquered Ireland.
 * Hungary continues to update its military in general, including the garrisons on Újfundlandi and India. Meanwhile, Greece also updates its navy and army,fearing a Napolitan invasion.Neos Preveza expands 650 sq km.Öböl expands 500 sq km, and Ezsák-Afrika expands 1550 sq km south. Meanwhile, Greece severes diplomatic ties with Naples.Protstantism grows on Hungary.
 * Itsaygahi encourages the efforts of Natchez, as it expands along the Mixxixxippi. Itsaygahi itself expands northwards, into OTL Maryland,
 * China amps up its military, setting up a huge army near Khosut upon learning of a final surviving Khanate. Meanwhile, rebuilding efforts in Mayan/Aztec colonies continue.
 * James I of France lead a campaign expanding the colony of Haiti 2000 sqkm. The sultan Suleiman sends ambassadors to negociate with the Pope nad other christian communities a post-war status of tolerance and mutual respect after the crusade. The prince Alphonse asks Vietnam to purchese the territory of Rochefort (he asures the vietnamese respect the laws that they establish there, and the non-christian citzens of the territory will be freemen). Also asks to Naples a tiny part of the hafsid territory for the cooperation of the Sultanate of Algeria (I supported you, but it did not appear in the algorithm), France will pay for the lands that Naples give to Algeria. Is created a parliament, a permanent government conference, which is formed by the House of Peers (nobility), the House of the Faith (clergy) and the House of the Plebeians (elected leaders of people's assemblies and rich people of the cities).
 * I will add you to the algorithm, as this war is far from over
 * The Perisan government prevents any more inasions on Kashmir so that the military can be updated. It asks for military aid from Russia and China, and signs a non-agression pact between the two nations.
 * Am I doing this wrong? Please tell me.
 * Yes. you should dedicate more turns to update your military to then invade and conquer the country succesfully.
 * I am very sorry. I will change my previous move.
 * Russia falls into celebration as Ivan IV's daughter, Anna is born. Peter prepares for the trade of territory for an unusual demand for a great tech advancement when it is proven(this came from chinese astrologers that convinced the emperor to add this to the agreement in exchange for loosing control of the caspian sea). Peter starts planning for a great in cognito voyage to europe which will later be known as the great embassy. Peter Continues modernizing the russian army and their weaponry, improving their tactics and hiring more generals to train a conscript-based army. PEter Orders a complete overhaul of the Russian Navy.

1694

 * The Vietnamese send most of the army in Ireland to Scotland, where they provide as much asistance as possible to the Swedes. This is done in recognition of Sweden's asistance in the Irish War. The sole condition of their involvement is that Vietnam gains the territory taken by Sweden in Ireland.
 * Hungary joins the Hafsid War, and try to get some territory on OTL Libya, centered on the city of Tripoli.the plan is give the territory to Greece after the war is over.However, Greece does not joins the war.instead, updates its navy, still trying to avoid a possible Napolitan invasion.most of its warships are placed on the Morean coast.Hungary also sents a message to Vietnam, declaring that it will support it on the war against Ireland, in trade for the Irish colony on the island of Újfundlandi, which is seen as a obstacle on the objective of claiming the whole island to Hungary.Hungary offers a alliance to Denmark.the administrative control of the colony of Neos Preveza is officially given to Greece.Öböl expands 600 sq km west, Uruguay expands 1150 sq km south and north inland, and India expands 1000 sq km inland.
 * Naples: With the Hungarians and Swedes attacking the Libyan portion, and the Franco-Burgunidan-Algerians invading from the west, the Hafsids are forced to divide their forces in order to combat all of these foes. This allows the Neapolitan generals to surround the city of Tunis, and begin the seige of the Hafsid capital.
 * China's military is mobilized to the Khosut/Chinese border, though not sent into Khosut. The Khosuts know practically nothing of this. In September, several hundred cannons are brought to the lines. Meanwhile, rebuilding in the Mayan/Aztec colonies continues.
 * The Sultan of Algeria is focus in end the last rebelions in his territory (I need someone to finish the algorithm) and sends troops to support Persia. James I travel to Rome to talk with the Pope about the invasion to Egypt after the war against the Hafsids and Zyyynids. The prince Alphonse travel to Greece to talk about a possible alliance. The french-algerian army builds up its military.
 * France can annex all of Algeria.
 * Persia foritifes the eastern border next to Kasmir to prevent suspected Kashmir invasions.
 * Hanthawaddy sets up a settlement at OTL Ishigaki at 50 sq km, which would be a major point on the route to the northeast passage. Hanthawaddy explores the Kuril Islands and the Sea of Okhotsk, giving each of the Kuril Islands Mon names. During the year, the Raja of Toeh Ngoa Nyoing dies of double pneumonia and is succeeded by his son Hkun Maha Doing.
 * After a russian naval ship encounters the Slaver Hanibal, The Russian navy persues it and pushes it into an iceburg, becaue of it not wanting to get caught, and the russians just wanting to know who or what it was carrying. 300 of the slaves on board were rescued and emidiately transported to Novorossiya, and after being well fed, and given proper treatement for whatever injury or desease tey had recieved were given a chopice: live in Russia and its colonies(one of them situated in africa) or be returned from here they came. about 35% of them returned to their homeland, and the others decided to live in protection by the anti-slavery Russians, 50% of those who decidced to stay were transported in luxury to Afrikanskaya zemlya and the others in luxury to Russia proper, where they would later decide where to go. Peter I decrees that only modern europeans ships may be used in the russian navy, save the koch and any ship the spetsnaz wishes to use. After hearing about the mon names of the kurils, the russian tsar sneds the Mon Emperor a letter with the writen declaration of his father's clame to the Kurils and Shalin, along with their russian names. Peter decides to reshape the russian navy, and starts decomissioning the old ships and replacing them with new ones. Peter orders this: For three hundred and tewnty five of the finest galley ships to be made, to the european style, and they should be armed with the newest guns and mortars, with the crews armed with musketoons. Retraining of the army along with cossacks capturing siberia continues.

The Hafsid king and many other government officials are executed for conspiracy to assassinate King Angelo. The victorious King Carlo VI declares that the Hafids have forfeited their right to rule over land. In memory of the martyred Angelo, northern Hafid lands are taken and turned into the Neapolitan puppet-state of Tunisia.

Meanwhile, King Carlo begins to prepare for the eventual Crusade. He sends word to France that the Mamluks are the only prominent Sunni Muslim nation left, and that the Shi'a in Persia and Itsaygahi are not a threat. He states that they should work hard for the next decade, preparing their militaries for the invasion of the Mamluk Sultanate.

 * you have a colony in California?i thought that it was Joseon who had one in California.unless that you annexed it when it went inactive.
 * Where is the colony??? It's not on the external territory page. If it is the one directly south of mine, Denmark was gonna claim it this turn.
 * It's on San Fransisco Bay. I founded it as an outpost years, if not centuries, ago. I'm just returning to it because I have another colony to found. And last thing I heard Joseon's colony is in Oregon, and not California.
 * The Commonwealth has the colony in California.
 * The Vietnamese colony or the Joseon colony?
 * Sorry, I'll rephrase that. The Commonwealth has a colony in California. OTL Eureka.
 * Yes but it was just a trading post, not a colony. Creating the colony takes one turn. And it doesn't make sense for a colony to immediately expand 1400 sq km. There is not enough resources yet. -DK
 * France is building up its military, creating new military orders and new technologies. James I sends word to Carlo IV, his brother-in-law, asking three things: 1. For petition of the sultan Suleiman, he asks the respect of the native tunisian religion under the mentorship of the Sultan of Algeria. 2. The sending of missioners to the non-christian lands of the French colonial empire. 3. The permition to start himself the war against the mamluks in a decade. Also, the french insist that they weren't annoying with the vietnamese and they just want the land of Rochefort again, with no agression, and the king is open to a negative answer and no decleare any hostility to Vietnam or its empire. The sultan of Algeria send words to Persia and Itsayghi asking alliances for a new world where the Islam and the Christianity live together in peace and friendship.
 * Naples, which has no problem with Persia and Itsayghi, for it was the Mamluks they fought in Cuba and the Hafsids who struck down their beloved king, somewhat accepts. However, King Carlo VI states that he will let the Tunisians practice the Shi'a branch of Islam, that of the Persians and Itsgahi, but not the Sunni branch of the Hafsids. He agrees they should prepare for an eventual crusade.

1697

 * Naples sends more money to the church, as well as large amounts of money from the conquered Hafsids. The Pope accepts some of this money; however, large amounts are redirected to the Catholic Church of Jerusalem. This results in the Church there being the wealthiest and most powerful group in the state, even stronger than the Venetian merchants that dominate the city. They accuse the Venetian nobleman who was given rule over the city of heresy, and he is tried and jailed by the Catholic Inquisition. As Venice is silent, the Catholics ask King Carlo VI of Naples to appoint the next ruler of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, the southernmost Crusader state. Carlo appoints a trusted friend of his, making Jerusalem a puppet state of Naples and an ideal launching point of the Crusade.
 * The Anglo-German Commonwealth is found to be urbanizing (but not nearly to the extent of industrial revolution) in the latest census.

 * The king James of France offers to the king-emperor of the Commonwealth an alliance. The french army is still improving itself. The king of France asks again for the designation of his son, Jean, as Archbishop of Avignon. The Parliament approves the freedom of the Algerian people to practice any religion they want, but the military service is obligatory for at least ten years, except to the Christians and Schmittists (recognized in this realm, not in France, where the military service is obligatory to them). The Sultan accepts this temporary. The Islamic and Schmittists french start to be concentrated in the colonies and the sultanate of Algeria.
 * Jean is appointed Archbishop of Avignon and head of the French branch of the Catholic Church
 * The Commonwealth accepts the French alliance, although to remove confusion if France goes to war with any of the Commonwealth's other allies (Naples, Papal States, Russia, Hungary, China, Denmark) the Commonwealth will remain neutral or side with their older ally.
 * The Russian Tsar Peter I decides to have a portrait done(the one seen on the Russia page) before he starts his journey, the portrait will later be sent to the Anglogerman Emperor-King as a gift. First he visits Hungary, where he reafirms his alliance. Then it is for to France, where he is visiting in cogneto. HE spends most of his time in voyages of simple ships, and pops by venice to learn great shipbuilding skills, which he then sends to Russia's navy shipbuilders.

Peter Wants the first Russian University to be amongst the best in Europe. Ivan is left to rule for what seems to be a 3 year trip. More Strelets unsettlement grows with their power resieding. more and more boyars are getting angry about peter ditching the Russo-byzantine tradition for more European Russia. Some try to conspire with the strelets agaist Peter. In Peter's Absence, Ivan signs the Law on the Militia. This law states that in wartime, any able-bodied man(not onlyu the 20-30 year old conscript) is elegible to serve in a temporary army or "militsiya", where you are taught to use a firearm, listen to orders, and sent on the field of battle. This means that if enemy is advansing, then Russian People closest will retaliate and arm themselves with flintlocks and fire away as militsiya units! A new Russian Census is scheduled for 1706 by order of Ivan. IN late winter Ivan Catches a serious flu, which has many complications due to already his alredy things. and is bedridden untill june 1698.

 * Naples' king Carlo VI sends many Neapolitan Schmittists to Istoias, resulting in the swiftly growing colony having to expand by 650 square kilometers further along the southern coast of Madagascar. Many of the banished Schmittists had actually fled to Naples from the rest of Europe, knowing that Naples would take send them to Istoias where they could worship in peace. Meanwhile, he also orders the colony of Ricasolia to expand by 900 square kilometers in an attempt to connect the two halves of the colony. In Tunisia, there are some Christian and Schmittist converts by the Tunisians, However, the majority of the Tunisians that convert convert to Shi'a Islam, as it is closer to their native faith of Sunni Islam. Although there is still discrimination against Shi'as, it is far less than the amount toward Sunnis, and in fact even less than the amount toward Schmittists due to Naples not wanting bad relations with the Itsaygahi or the Persians. Unfortunately, King Carlo VI does not live to see the end of this year, as he falls off of his horse and breaks his neck. He has no son, so his daughter Queen Lucentia is crowned monarch of Naples, Protector of the Papal States and Jerusalem, and Overlady of Tunisia, Ricasolia, and Istoias.
 * You only have two colonies and two vassals.the 1550 sq km is the maximum of expansion for all the colonies (the expansion of all the colonies, in total, may get up to 1550 sq km.), not for each colony.
 * I have 3 colonies actually, but I forgot that Jerusalem was a puppet state and not a real colony so I will change that when I have time
 * I am trying to say that your total expansion amounted to 62 px (3100 sq km), and this only would be possible if you had 8 colonies/vassals.your minimal number with four colonies/vassals would be 1550 sq km, but it an't 1550 for each colony.1550 is the total to be reached by the expansion of all the colonies, as i said before.
 * I knew that, I had counted Jerusalem and then put a 3 instead of a 2 in the calculator, resulting in 1550 being half of the number
 * James of France congratulates his niece the Queen Lucentia and the entire family (King James, Archbishop Jean, prince Alphonse and princess Leonore) travels to Italy to see her coronation. With relatives of himself ruling in Naples and Burgundy, the king starts to feeling in confidence to ask the promotion of Jean to a cardinal. The french army still been improve. The king James asks a new allaince and trade-pact to the Tsar. Also, If the Tsar sends cossacks to teach in the french military schools, France will send knights and algerians to teach the europeans and arabic tactics to the russian army.
 * The Pope says he must wait for a while to promote the brother to cardinal, perhaps on year 1700, as it is the turn of the century and a symbolic time? Or maybe right before/after the Crusade, so he can lead the faith in that battle?

Peter's Navy is overhauled completely and peter ceates the 4 Russian Fleets. The Baltic, Pacific, Black sea and Northern Fleet(althouth his one is mainly consisting of Koches, very very useful). IN December, Togeterh With Evgeni, Alexandr Ovchenko has a great Eureka! He inadvertantly invents the Piston! He thinks about how to intergrate Piston technology with steam for the next year or so. more to come.
 * As the troops in the Khosut Khanate are recycled with more Chinese troops, the lines are resupplied. Meanwhile, more cities are built in the Mayan/Aztec colonies.

1699

 * Naples: Queen Lucentia orders Ricasolia to be expanded 1000 square kilometers, and Istoias expanded 550 square kilometers. However, all of the money that has been used to do these expansions came from the nobility, and the ultra-conservatives are against a woman ruling over them. Duke Biondello di Sicilia, the nephew of Mario di Sicilia, the queen's grandfather's brother in law (he is nephew by blood, not marriage) is seen by many as the real power behind the monarchy, and his political enemies unite with the conservatives and the money-strapped nobles. Many nobles revolt, led by brothers Roberto and Marco Fuzzoli. However, others stay loyal to the crown, resulting in a civil war called the Insurrezione Nobile,
 * You can send aid to either side in this war if you want, but know that I will control the outcome of the conflict, as it is a civil war.
 * The Vietnamese expand New Vietnam by 28*50 sq km. The Vietnamese declare support for Queen Lucentia in what is swiftly turning into the Neapolitan Civil War. They do this because they feel that Lucentia is the true heir to Carlo VI, given that she is his own flesh and blood and not a power-hungry nephew. They also give their support because one of the greatest rulers of Vietnam was the Empress Hồ Kim Anh, who had also faced a sexist insurrection against her authority. The Vietnamese Emperor Tôn Thành declares that they will supply whatever Lucentia needs to stay in power.
 * The Anglo-German Coommonwealth sends more settlers to Wolkenland. The national cricket championship is held, with newly acquired Hamburg being the champion. More coconuts are brought back from Neue Brandenburg, as their juice becomes a delecacy. Construction of the Maidenhead Palace continues. The Army is increased in size.
 * Alexandr Ovchenko invents the first piston steam engine in late June. Or at least design it, what is left to do is construct it to prove that it works and show it to the Tsar. More Urban Booming occurs in Moscow. During his trip up north into the Baltics, peter orders to stop and contemplates the view of the place where the Neva river meets up with the baltic. He thinks about building a city there, a new Capital for Russia. With a final gush of wind blowing in hi face, he decides on one thing, and orders that a great city built in that spot, a great pot city, a great new capital. A capital by the name of St. Petersburg. Russian Military expands as it is trained more efficiently. Strelets corps continue to not be as powerfull. Peter I Seeks a chance to prove his new and modern navy. Meanwhile, to Accomodate New Mon settlers, the colony of Canada And Novorosiya expand each by 1500 km. Peter Decides to stop using the old byzantine Calendar and start using the Julian Calendar, thus making the Russian 1699 the shortest year in Russian History, spanning only from september to January, when it is planned to have new Year celebrations for the year of 1700, the turn of the new Century.
 * The French royal army is expanded with the new corps of local police in the coloneis and an autonomous branch in Algeria. To protect the Pope, the king of France invites him to come to Avignon, while the prince Alphonse travels to Naples to fight the rebel menace. He attempts, above all, to secure and retake the islasnds of Corsica and Sardinia and the Papal States. Also, french troops of the police colonial corps are sended to the neapolitan colonies to avoid any attempt to join the rebellion from local leaders. Meanwhile, the sultan Suleiman send troops also to support the neapolitans in Sicilia and the southern peninsula.
 * The Indian States agrees with the plan from Persia and form with Persia into a new country- Persia-India.
 * It is totally unrealisitc for all remaining Indian states to all join a foreign nation at once. If you want to slowly absorb them through means other than conquest, you can have maybe 1 join every several years until after a couple decades you get them all (The Mughals should take longer than the rest, as they are more powerful). But no claiming an entire subcontinent in a single year
 * Persia buys the Western and Eastern Indian ports (except those owned by European). Persia uses this to establish itself as a sea power.
 * You cannot take multiple nations in one turn! Take one every 5 years or so. Also, what Arab states are you talking about?.
 * Much better. After several years, you may be able to turn them into vasslas.  Like I said, maybe 5 years for each one, that could be enough time (although taking breaks would always be good)
 * Hanthawaddy faces rebellion and crop failure during the year. Many Mons choose to migrate to the Russian possessions in North America and Katimon, where the lifestyle remains intact. More Mons settle in Bodhivati, because of a new interest in the lifestyles of the islanders, which although simple and apparently primitive, appeal to the desire of Mons for greater happiness. A Basque settlement is created on Bodhivati, created by those fleeing Turmoil in Spain. Thus, Bodhivati expands north 700 sq km. Bi Hloa expands east 1200 sq km, despite less demand for slaves than usual.
 * Stockholm is surprize attacked by the Danish forces. Danish shipbuilders attach canons onto the Danish submarines which will eventually sink the sub but not after doing tremedous damage. The harbourside palace is destroyed and Charles XI escapes but is injured in the attack. Many ships are destroyed in the harbour and hundreds are dead in the resulting chaos and fires. Meanwhile Danish troops seige Malmo. Sweden sends pleas for help to their allies. Denmark requests Russian, AGC and Hungarian help. Meanwhile New Scandinavia had still been expanding and finishes the year with 2750 sqkm expansion.
 * Russia will support denmark, even If I think that I shoud invade I am asking you if we should mabe start The Great Norther War(not Wars)? I am asking you if you are OK with a Full scale invasion of Sweden. If you are it shall start next year.
 * Go ahead and invade.
 * Neos Preveza expands 650 sq km north.Újfundlandi és a Labrador expands 1200 sq km, 800 sq km inland on the central part, near OTL Ungava Bay, 400 sq km on its southern settlement, and Dél-Afrika expands 700 sq km north and west.Meanwhile, because of its alliance with both countries, Hungary stays neutral on the Danish-Swedish War.However, unofficially, gives more support to Denmark.Hungary also gives support for the loyalists in Naples.Greece stays neutral and continues to update its military.
 * China offers help to the Hanthawaddian disaster. In December, the Century Celebration occurs in Beijing. Thousands of people flock from Eastern Asia to attend this event. Inventions are shown off, culture is shared, and the largest firework display of the time occurs at the end.

They are winning though, so it should not be long until they are reuinited, and are able to help Persia. Naples proposes that the two nations begin trading, as it will help both of them.
 * Sorry to keep correcting you, but currently Shahrzur lies between Persia and Kurdistan. They are the same strength, so conquering Shahrzur should be just as easy. If the war lasts for a while, you may get Naples' help defeating Shahrzur as well.
 * I am sorry, I will recorrect my move.
 * What bonus points?
 * Stability Bonus points
 * The Vietnamese expand New Vietnam by 28*50 sq km. The Vietnamese declare support for the Swedes, and will give them all the support they can give and still maintain official neutrality.

They send word to Persia, telling them that they will bring the Crusade to that nation if they continue to fight the Christian nation of Armenia.
 * Hanthawaddy's economy levels after two years of weather and riots. However, many farmers continue to face hardship and famine. The rice crop is more successful than the previous year, but other farmers attempt to grow wheat in the region. Bi Hloa expands east along the coast at 1500 sq km. Toeh Ngoa Nyoing expands east along the coast from OTL Murmansk at 700 sq km.
 * James I of France dies, and Alphonse I is crowned king of France and colonies.

 * Russian Student Alexandr Ovchenko Invents the first piston steam engine and presents it to the Tsar. Peter takes emidiate interest in the topic and more urban booming occurs. Peter orders People to think of ways that this new invention can be employed to better Russia. Subsequently, St Petersburg continues. Peter sees a great opportunity to prove his new army and navy. Peter Declares War on Sweden, jouning Denmark's side of the Conflict. Russia hopes that The Anglogermans and the french will do the same(ok, if scandinator wants to do an algorithm its his choice, and if he wants to dictate the outcome of this conflict he is free to do so without an algorithm, it is his Dano-Swedish war after All, or should I say the Great Northern War!).more to come.
 * The Chinese emperor works on the urbanization of China. This massive project will result in the expansion of Beijing, Shanghai, and several urban areas. It will affect not only mainland China, but also the colonies in Central America. During this period of economic expansion, the GDP rises sharply and a wave of nationalism and pride sweeps the nation, as opposed to the incident that ended the Ming Dynasty.
 * Burgundy expand in the north of Cote d?Ivoir 1500 km
 * Sweden counter-attacks heavily against Denmark with Norwegian and Swedish army groups. The Norwegian branch of the navy destroys the Danish one in the naval battle of Malmo. The Danish troops there lose their supply link and surrender. The Swedish navy attacks Copenhagen harbour but encounter no resistance. The ships sail straight in and discover the Danish king died at the end of the previous year after starting the war.

Anyway, I want to know if you want to set a result yourself without making an algorithm or make the algorithm, now that Russia is involved the result will mabe change?LxCaucassus
 * Naples cannot help Sweden, as they are having a civil war.

1701

 * In Naples, the civil war has come to a close. With the help of their allies, the Neapolitan royalist forces easily occupy the island of Sardinia.  Duke Mercutio attempts to flee on a ship to Spain, but his vessel crashes and the rogue duke is killed.  Meanwhile, the Fuzzoli brothers have almost been defeated, and are driven to a small corner of the Papal States near Venice.  However, right before the Neapolitan forces attack, Marco Fuzzoli does something totally unexpected: he offers to sell his Noble_Inssurection_Finish.pnger, Roberto, to the Neapolitans in exchange for his portion of Italy becoming free. Duke Biondello laughs at this offer, asking why Naples would trade away territory for a single man.  Marco then reveals the bombshell: Roberto Fuzzoli had let the Hafsid assassin that murdered King Angelo into the nation, hoping that the Mamluks would aid the Hafsids, resulting in the Neapolitan government falling and letting him take Naples as its new king.  However, when the Mamluks stayed still and the Hafsids fell, Roberto had to rely on a clusmy rebellion as an attempt to gain power.   Marco then tells Duke Biondello that if they don't let him take that small part of the Papal States, he will let his brother escape into Venice, where he will never be brought to justice.  Knowing that they must catch this horrible traitor to bring justice for the martyred Angelo, Queen Lucentia agrees to this request, creating the small independent nation of Fuzzolia but capturing Roberto Fuzzoli, who is excecuted for his horrendous crimes.   The name of Fuzzoli has become a curse in Naples, and other members of the Fuzzoli family chane their last name to disassociate themselves with their most hated kinsman.
