The Mountain cities are also expanded to a degree allowing for more people to remain in the area and not force them to populate the new southern towns and cities. A new Major Coastal trade port emerges called Surioucan named after one of the Emperors new Daughters. Aggressive programs of making Bronze cheaper and most useful in society are carried out. <p style="margin-top:1em;margin-bottom:1em;">Morocco: <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:sans-serif;line-height:19.1875px;">  <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:sans-serif;line-height:19.1875px;">Reforms continue and the first major ports are established which continued trade.

We destroy Portuguese force in Tangiers and move into the area, although Portuguese force still continue to fight against our forces. Naples: The military and the navy are built up, the colonies expand at their usual rates. The vassalization of Savoy continues.
 * Trans-Andean Tribes: Using Incan agricultural methods, the meager population of the Tribes grows from about 75,000 to 80,000 with Inca immigrants helping the tribes establish some of their first settlements using Inca architecture and skill. Despite other tribes saying that the Inca are brutal, they have provent to be great allies and an important ally and leader in helping the tribes emerge from their previous situation. The First city is built at the Foot of the Andes mountains, small but becoming larger by the month.

We push through Tangiers as another part of our army crushes Casablanca.

Inca Empire: The Empire continues to fill its previously claimed land and works on increased movement away from stone tools into metal tools and weapons. The navy of the Inca is continually invested in with ships reaching as large as they could get with current knowledge. The Emperor orders more well-built and larger designs as the remaining new ships are devoted heavily to coastal trade. With the increase in agriculture and a relatively quiet year on diseases the Inca population continues its boom with the population reaching 15.2 million. The coastal ports begin to develop their own major agricultural centers using the flatter land to develop a decent amount of land area. The mining output of the empire increases heavily and the first sets of rudimentary ceremonial armour is made for the men who guard the inca temples. A new huge Temple of the Moon, and Temple of the Sun are started on the coast of OTL Chile and are expected to be completed in the next few years. The taxes of labor for the state in order to get provisions such as food are continually phased out as the Emperor continually expands the economy and allows for the creation of true marketplaces for the first time in Inca history. The marketplaces begin to pop up nationwide. However, they are geared toward rarer and specialized things like rich fabrics, gold, silver and less common foods. This is met with wide success. However, large scale food trade for payment remains less prominent to the agriculture being part of taxes which are then redistributed. This form of tax instead of payment remains highly successful. However, a larger growth of a currency begins to develop. An Inca historian accurately recognizes and documents the fact the Inca empire is built on agrilculture and not economics and this seems to prove the point that there has not been a famine in recent history. Naples: The military and navy are built up. The colonies expand, Nova Capua by 3 px and Nuovo Tiber (called by some nobles and the settlers as Tiberia Augusta or Cives Tiberianum.) The expansion of the Neapolitan power at its peak for the last century is outstanding, Giovanni, being the first Neapolitan hero to really succeed, is called Giovanni il Buono, in Italy, as in Venice and the Papal States. He plots another plan that would end with Neapolitan rulling over Italy but sickened of war his people and nobles unite and ask for peace and, although wishing to push the unification of Italy, he agrees and begins focusing on Naples. The first aspect he sees is the Romanity, the Kingdom has for long enough entered into a declination period of the Romanity, even the Hellenic culture had been lost even though they controlled parts of the kingdom until only 500 years ago. With this, the king begins an outstanding new movement. On one side it begins to bring Latin teachers to the high level schools and universities to teach Latin as the primary language, and to fund churches to teach Latin to the people of South Italy, while bringing Christian Greeks to Italy as well to bring Hellenic culture. It is expected that by 1549 the population would use Latin  or a more Latinised language as vulgar and common languages. The Republic of Liguria is formed as a Vassal of the Kingdom. Vassalization of Savoy continues.
 * Independent Andean Cities: The new cities of the once tribal civilization are developed with help from the Inca. The tribal lifestyle is forcibly ended with Inca armed forces. While a large group of people were not okay with the forced change of lifestyle, others are enjoying the ability to indefinitely grow food and have less to worry about. The population of the new cities reaches almost 95,000 as the ability to provide for more people has allowed for population expansion to a large degree as well as predicted continuity of this. The Incan technological advances and tutelage has led to the rapid rise of the cities as well as their trade related development. The development of a road system begins which is meant to link up with the Inca's road system. The highly impressionable people begin to adopt the Inca gods and have built small rudimentary temples to the Sun and Moon.

Inca Empire: The empire continues its expansion of coastal settlements and agriculture allowing for good population growth in the area. The population of the empire expands to 15.3 million. The Expansion of the Empire south into claimed territory is near complete as more towns and settlements are founded. With the Southern area growing exponentially it is turned into the fifth Inca province and is to be expanded all the way down the coast through the mountains and surrounding plains and hills. The Emperor continually helps the Independent Andean cities advance and helps them reclaim territory for their expansion. With the Empire continually moving forward paving the way south and helping their expansion by continually building up through agriculture base as well as an actual growing currency now. The Emperor once again allows for a massive buildup of infrastructure on the coast connecting many of the Inca coastal cities and towns through this system. More effort it put in to domesticating and breeding llama's and Alpacas for use as pack animals. This is semi successfuly as the ability to begin larger amounts of trade is highly effective. The Inca Ruler using the previously accidental trade establishment with the Aztecs begins to use small expedition groups aimed at exploring the continent but not claiming any land. The Inca explorers start by moving across the coasts and skipping moving up into central America. many tribes are encountered along the way but none powerful enough to either be a threat, or be of any use to the Inca.
 * Independent Andean Cities: The Cities now solidly under Inca stewardship and control as a vassal and begin continued population build up. The Citites continually adopt inca religeon and other technology and tactics and are subsequently taught many things about it in order to facilitate Inca supervised, but majority independent growth.  The population grows to almost 100,000 thanks to surplus food, and now semi Inca integration.

An Incan runner taking weeks has reported back to the emperor that unknown men have been found on the coasts and have made contact with one of the emperors eploration parties.

Ming Dynasty: The military continues to be built up, and the navy continues to be improved. More ships are built, and new harbours are built. Taoism continues to rise, and some more Taoist Temples are built. The Taiwan colony expands.

Inca Empire: The emperor decides to prevent any large scale contact with these unknown men and give them a wide berth but does decide to send another party, this time part of the new merchant class that has arisen in the empire. all in all only about 30 men have been sent using pure Inca reputation for protection on the way to the colony. While that matter has been addressed for the time being the Empire continues its expansion south claiming more land and pushing now more into the fields of the south as well as the mountains. The continued agricultural expansion is halted due to the continued surplus coming in every six months. More mining is conducted to begin looking into stronger metals than bronze. However, it currently remains unsuccessful. The Military is expanded to a degree as the Warriors are used to help spearhead the expansion south and hel heavily with hunting and establishing settlements. The massive naval effort being exerted has allowed for large scale coastal naval trade to occur bringing many of the Mountain Highways into less use and hence less upkeep and wear and tear. The first real shipping and trade organizations have begun to form using the new form of Inca currency. However, much of the economy is still based on agriculture so as to prevent any type of famine from occurring. The expansion of metalurgy and mining has led to thriving businesses coming above that starting to make the Labor taxes that are in place look less exciting. However, some form of this is still left in place to create a reserve for the government in case of times of emergency. The Temple of the Sun on the West coast in OTL Chile has been completed with the Temple of the moon to be completed in the next year. The Emperor secretly begins to think that sacrifices on the top of the period of children and people is not okay and begins thoughts on how to phase it out of his society. The possibility of major diseases like one that affected a village a few years ago is considered and plans are made to try to prevent major disease outbreaks like this from happening.

All Portuguese are either killed or captured, we send the prisoners back to Portugal for peace.
 * Independent Andean Cities: The Cities begin a small expansion rate by claiming land similar to their masters (15 px = 3 times expansion rate) The cities also begin using the Andean mountains that they control for Terraced farming much like the Inca. The Mining is also heavily copied and a small voluntary tribute begins to be paid to the Inca thanking them for their generocity in helping the Cities be fully established and flourishing. The Remaining tribes which have been hiding are either wiped out or join the Cities. This addition as well as the regular population growth bring the Andean cities population to 115,000 with 13,000 tribesmen being added to the population with another 2000 births. The Birthrate is relatively low compared to other years. The Cities helpfully integrate their new tribesman into the cities with help from the Inca who are masters of the practice.

Ming Dynasty: The military continues to be built up, and the navy continues to be improved. More ships are built, and new harbours are built. Taoism continues to rise, and some more Taoist Temples are built. The Taiwan colony expands.

Inca Empire: The empire continues to populate its new southern province with thousands of people. The population expands to almost 15.7 million with the huge agricultural booms taking place. Tree farming is known as well to give nutrients, and hold the thin topsoil to the areas so as to not mess with the local ecology. The Armors of the Inca come into more common use as many believe these new armors are a gift from the sun god Inti for the greater protection of his people and warriors. The continued population booms have led to many of the southern provinces, and Coastal citites particularly boom with new residents as some of these cities boast more than 20,000 to 30,000 inhabitants now. The Cities of Cuzco, and Machu Pichu, both reach unprecedented 700,000 people each in their cities. The Emperor once again calls for more expansion of the Currency of the empire and for that to take the place of much labor taxes. However, labor taxes is still considered a way to pay taxes if there isn't enough money. The Inca ship system of trade becomes much more advanced with the currency, metal and agricultural transports becoming much more common. The Inca empire begins a major program of disease control, where the affected areas are isolated and any attempting to leave are are killed to prevent disease spreading. Bodies are also burned. This is to limit how the disease can spread or affect the vast majority of the populace and is supposed to prevent the population from completely succumbing to a disease. The Inca Highway system is expanded deep into the new territories with tributary roads moving into the areas such as foothills and the plains. Naples: Military and navy are built up, colonies expand and the vassalization of Savoy continues.
 * Independent Andean Cities: The Cities continue increasing their population and reach around 120,000. The Cities use new agriculture to help advance the cities farther. The Inca are asked to help build a protective fort for the capital city.

Inca Empire: The Inca empire continues large scale military advancement and keeps their equipment up to date and in well working order. A small outbreak of a disease in a small section of Machu Pichu. The disease tactics are carried out with the infected killed and their bodies burned to prevent spread. only about 50 die from this outbreak. The Inca establish a larger food reserve and now mineral reserves to prevent lacking months from coming about. The mineral reserves are carried out by smelting down ore and making it into basic bars among other things to store it effectively and use it when needed. The continued establishment of currency allows for more dynamic market oriented things to develop along with an emerging trader class. Highways in the north are expanded and are made so that they can be cut off at strategic mountain passes to prevent any unwanted access to the Inca lands. The same is planned for as many of the used strategic mountain passes throughout the Empire. The Inca continue expanding into newly claimed southern territory. The [population boom puts us nearing 16 million. The Inca Emperor tells his people that the Sun god has predicted that the people of this nation must not be limited to the mountains and while it has served them well they must expand to the plains near the Southern Province. The Temples along the Western Coast have been completed and are put under the keeping of the Preists. The City of Souanti is established in the Southern Andes in the southern province and is destined to be a Secondary capital in the South so if something happens to Cuzco then the Empire will not cease to function. A Clear line of succession is established beyond just the Emperors first son, second son and brothers to be very clear and conclusive so as to not have any issues if the Emperor or more than one heir is killed or dies. Support is offered to the Andean Cities to allow the construction of a defensive fort to be eventually expanded into a defensive fortress the Inca possesses. The possibility of establishing a City in the Fields and foothills below the Andes is considered so as to better learn the area and prevent the tribes from holding on to it for too long. The Fleet of Trade ships continues increasing coastal trade. An Incan ship captain is tasked by the emperor specifically to once again go find the Aztecs as they were briefly encountered. The ship eventually ends up in OTL Panama sailing up the coast.

Iron Ore generally mined and crafted as something of status and prestige is discovered to have properties superior to bronze. Metalurgists are given minimal amounts of Iron in an attempt to work with it. The Inca decide to establish a semi Autonomous settlement among the same as the Independent Cities. (kind of how the Greeks did with the Med) This is done to help establish a larger presence in the plains and influnece the Tribes to help take the areas faster when mainline Inca expansion comes. '''This city is called Ico. '''The Provincial council is established to give representation from every province and newly developing area especially the Vassal city of Ico

(This is true. The civilizations previous to the Inca were doing this as were the Inca as prestige. Figuring out it would be useful for other things could have happened especially since this area's bronze age had been around for about 200 years.) &#35;LivinLikeFeudal (talk)
 * Independent Andean cities: The Cities have continued their development and population growth reaching 122,000. The Cities' military is upgraded and is made militia typed for the time being. The possibility of establishing another City is debated.

Aztec empire: After the new contact with the Incas, exploration begins south of them, and small settlements are set up along the coast of  Veracruz. But most is focused going north. Farms are erected across the country, and the place is fairly well fed, leading to healthier woman to give birth to healthier children, decreasing the rate of death at birth. A lot of focus is also spent on the training for the military, and shipbuilding. Tenochitlan begins fortification after raids from other peoples, and men are ent to find these people. Texcoco and Tlacpopan also begin a set of fortification, and get richer by farming, mining, and trade. We send more people to this land down south. ALong the way, by OTL Panama.

Tasardom of Russia/Muscovy: With the Russian population reaching 6,000,000 (est) as of 1500, our Tasr has begun initiating programs to become more centralized and focused. With centralization becoming of necessity we have raised an army of 60,000 professional soldiers, we expect more can be recruited, but no enough materials are avaliable. Better roads are being constructed around our current lands to increase travel, though full completion will take time. We wish to begin trading with local nations such as Poland-Lithuania and Sweden.

Naples: The unification of Italy as plan of the monarchy begins arising, many nobles from the recently conquered Florence and Pisa, with the expansion of the colonies continues with Nova Capua expanding 3 pixels westward and Nuovo Tiber expanding 2 pixels southward, Giovanni after 13 years of rule has its last plan done, his war against the Venetians. However, the plans remain hidden until the empire can be able to fight against the venetians with success. for now the plans of Italian unification remain hidden, and Pope Alexander VII is called to crown King Giovanni of Naples as the first grand ruler of Italy since the fall of the Roman empire.

Polish-Lithuanian Union: The price for peasant labor labor becomes cheap to almost very free, causing many Feudal nobles to gain a large number of more peasants. The increase of the peasant workforce has started an agricultural boom in Poland. Grain and other agricultural products begin to be floated down rivers until they arrive at the Gdansk Province (Or Danzig). The Gdansk province begins its monopoly of Polish foreign trade, exporting to much of East and Northern Europe, including Muscovy, Lithuania, Sweden, and many Northern German nations. To reach markets inland, Krakow becomes an important trade city for it's central location in Poland, allowing trade to Bohemia, Bradenburg and Hungary. We ask to renew our alliance with Lithuania, which is controlled by  Władysław II Jagiełło, the close family member of Poland's Sigismund I.

Tsardom of Russia/Muscovy: We continue our centralization program to connect our cities, towns, and smaller villages with stone roads to replace the older dirt roads. We expand 8 pixels north along the border of Sweden (OTL Karelia). Our army now consists of a constant 80,000 regular soldiers to further protect our lands. We begin constrcution of a small naval fleet consisting of eight ships to help protect our trade ships in the Baltic Sea. We appreciate trade that has flowed between Poland-Lithuania and Sweden, we wish to begin trade with Estonia and Denmark.

Inca Empire: The Empire helps the City of Ico influence nearby tribes using the city as a vector for the transmission of Inca culture. The same is done with the Andean Cities. More large scale improvements to the highway system are established. Semi-regular contact is made with the Neopolitans using a ship to drop men off closer to them and then make a trek the rest of the way. The semi-regular unofficial trade with the Aztecs has caused larger growth of the northern coastal settlements. The Empire continues expansion of its metalurgical knowledge now using Iron to begin developing and upgrading weaponry. While the Bronze is just as well being adapted, the possibility of an even stronger material to secure the empire and its interests. The Inca continue filling up territory to the south and begin to prepare a mass expansion into the plains as they have been adapted over the past few years with now very competent leaders of this field to help establish settlement of the area. With Ships now becoming a regular more wanted commodity for trade this maritime ability has allowed for some of the focus to shift from the mountains to the coastal trade ports and cities. '''The Incas begin influencing more tribes with the promises of helping create city states much like Ico and the Andean cities. ''' The Inca population reaches  16.1 million. A new mass Generation of people have joined the younger aged adults of the Empire. '''The Inca begin to slightly influence the Maya as it will take longer due to the distance. However, traders begin to influence the previously declining Maya toward a more unified stance. '''The Empire begins to push scouts into Amazonia to make contact with the tribes there.

Naples: Military and navy are built up, while this the colonies of Nova Capua and Nuovo tiber expand at their usual rates plus the bonus of the events, while this the plans of the Venetian invasion are hold as the Venetian forces continue being stronger than the Neapolitan forces, an alliance is offered to France and to Switzerland in order to form stronger alliances outside of Italy, the unification of Italy is delayed.
 * Independent Andean Cities: With Inca support the first fort to protect the people is built outside one of the cities.
