1082-1155 (329-402 AD) (L'Uniona Homanus)

Post War Africa
Due to the settling down of the African states, with the powers in that area rather well-established, there was an attraction to that continent from other exiled people of the nearby area. In India the Buddhists were once again being exiled from the Maurya Empire, a task which seemed to become necessary not too often after the last purge. This group of Buddhists was sponsored by a wealthy merchant man who happened to hold the same faith. He led many of the Buddhists to come with him to Africa, a place which he had heard much about being a tradesman on the West coast of India. Before the government could seize more of his assets because of his religion he decided to up and leave one the environment became clearly too hostile. He brought many of the local Buddhists he knew with him and they intended to sail to the Bantu Kingdom. Some other groups left to live in the Kingdoms of the Thai, Khmer, Lao-Cham, Tibet, Java and other araes East of India.

This intrepid, young man’s name was Jahangir and he moved more of the Buddhists in the Maurya Empire, with ships he paid for, than any other of the migration routes which were followed after the Purge of 1084 (331 AD). The Bantu received the Buddhists quite with more than due hostility. They were given no land and no quarter and they were considered to be so much akin to the Satavahana that many believed that they were spies with a clever plot to take down their Empire. This infamous rumor spread as fast as the Buddhists had to and the violence which was shown towards them led to the commandeering of many of their ships and the deaths of many of their people in the Bantu Kingdom. The Bantu people’s hostility was returned again in the Zulu Republic but to a much less severe degree.

When the Buddhists, who were down to half their original size, came upon the Satavahana Kingdom they were greeted at first because the Satavahana believed them to have information about the Maurya Empire and its possible weaknesses. As over the course of the three years that the Buddhists stayed in the Satavahana Empire, it became increasingly obvious that they were lying. eventually they were placed in a slum town on the southern border of the country but they were eventually expelled entirely from the Kingdom in the year 1089 (332 AD). The Buddhists followed the coasts looking for an area that would be far away from the areas of the Satavahana or any other Kingdom. While they resided in the Satavahana Kingdom they managed to convert some new people and they followed them on their journey into the heart of southern Africa.
