Principia Moderni II (Map Game)

Principia Moderni, or "The Beginning of the Modern" in Late Latin, was a map game beginning in the final days of the Middle Ages in Europe, and the early days of the Ming Dynasty in China - in 1420 C.E, a turbulent era; in other words, an era of change; an era in which power is cemented. The first game was perhaps the most successful map game on the wiki in terms of length, finishing without dying and plausible expansions. However, it did have its problems, and has now finished. Thus, this second game has been created. Welcome to Principia Moderni II.

Perpetua spends several days crying after being infomred of the opportunity, but decides to accept when realizing that this is likely to be the highest-ranking offer that she recieves. She is resolved to serve the Apache as an honorable queen and a wise adviser to Ekta.

The cable lines prove very successful and small communication stations begin to be set up in the towns which hold cable lines. The opinion of the British Isles continues to be hugely negative, and it seems this feeling will not die down for a long time. The language of Sankala continues to become very popular. As a first language, pupils learn it dedicatedly as they know it would become the language which could be communicated fluently with Orissans. The Imperium continues its railroad projects. The aim is to be able to connect the major Ethiopian cities in each corner of the nation to Addis Abbaba to make sure that trading spreads all throughout the nation. Consolidation of the many new lands integrated continues. Port towns continue to grow and fishing becomes a large source of income. The new roads to these towns help spread trade and make it easier for traders to enter and leave the towns for fish. The propaganda continues, fuelling Ethiopian rage and helping its people to work harder and better for the nation. People work for their nation and for greater prosperity. The army is upgraded with new rifles produced and given to the army, while the navy continues to work with the Orissan navy and train together. In Bado, the process of establishing thriving towns and villages continues. The locals under Ethiopian aid begin to learn of the ideas of plurocontinentalism and quickly begin to accept it. Already a demand for jobs arises in Bado and many tribes' people migrate into the towns to work and construct new housing and factories as well as build roads in the nation. The tribal people learn how to communicate by writing in Sankala, as the Ethiopians begin to implement it in schools and start to teach the Bado how to write with it. In Northern Antillia, colonists from Wahab continue to co-operate with the Inuit, providing them medicine and new goods in exchange for being able to learn more about them. Baridi sees many small outposts constructed and business opportunists head to the lands to be able to get new furs and wood. The nation continues to see a bright future. The propaganda continues to encourage different tribes to co-operate and inter-marry. This will help cause stability and peace in the empire and unite its peoples' even more. This is already happening in the cities as people from different areas move in and work. The nation's propaganda begins to tell its people that the first stage to revenge is close, and citizens could help the nation in any way they can. Many join up the army after reading the propaganda messages. As well this, there is a huge number of emigration from Ethiopia to Orissa seeing the union between the people's nations and the easy chance to go travel to the other nation in search of jobs. The nation also reports large numbers of Orissans coming into the nation to set up new lives, presumably for the same reasons. Many find employment in the reservoir projects which the Orissans excel in due to heavy experience in Orissa itself. Crops continue to be grown successfully and a plan to greenify the deserts is brought to the attention of the government.

Anti-Icarus riots break out in Ona Yagich but are swiftly and brutally put down by the expanded and increasingly professionalized military. King Atticus begins tacitly supporting the opposition but does not overtly support them for fear that the Prime Minister has greater loyalty within the military. Icarus begins building a secular university on the outskirts of Ona Yagich and orders the bureaucracy to stifle the eforts of the Apostolic Church to expand it's own universities. The observatory built by the Church is confiscated, purged of religious decoration, and renamed as the "Temple of Science". In Yagich Rafael, the local council of nobles condemns Icarus' re-election votes unanimously for independence from the Haruwin to form the Selk'nam Kingdom of Yagich Rafael - they pointedly continue recognize the monarchy and proclaim their continuing loyalty to King Atticus, asking that his younger son Gavin Peter be proclaimed as the heir to a new Yagich Rafaelite throne. Icarus draws up plans for a naval invasion, but a third of the fleet is based in Yagich Rafael under the command of locally-born Admiral George Not'gni'hsaw, who immediately pledges his fleet to the defense of the new Kingdom. Despite wide support for Yagich Rafaelites on the mainland, Icarus prepares to go to war. However, King Atticus announces in December that his son Gavin Peter has not only accpeted the Yagich Rafaelite throne, but that Atticus himself has abdicated claim to the throne of Yagich Rafael and that Gavin Peter will be immediately entroned in the city of Yagich Rafael Yagich. Frustrated, Icarus calls off his invasion plans and recognizes the new state, but begins plotting against the royal family.

''' Ports in the Albanic Isles have gained a roaring trade from Scandinavia, Benelux, Normandy and Brittany. This helps the slow recovery of their economies following the massive looting that occurred during the Ethiopian evacuation of the Isles. The large scale cultural robbery, and the fact that the refugees did not care wether the machine or treasure was imported from Ethiopia or native, ensures that the Ethiopians will be demonized by the local governments for years to come. This all-encompasing hatred allows the nations to transcend and harsh feelings towards either the Welsh or the Germans. NOTE: Let's be honest, this sort of thing is all too plausible given OTL history.'''

 * Propaganda within the Maharajya continues as the government continues to convince its people that their hard work and loyalty is necessary to the survival of their people and state. With the new line constructed, the links in the nation increase. Many southerners head up north and view the progress with awe. Many poor northerners head southward to try their luck in getting a job and earning money for their families. Government propaganda begins to take hold in the lives of the people of Mysore, telling them that integration within the subcontinent is vital to the security of the nation and its culture. Sankala continues to grow in power and popularity, with millions in the north and the south adopting it in their everyday lives for communication with others of different groups and nationalities, breaking down the language barriers wherever it is found. In Bumbai, it is announced that the biggest shipyards on the planet will be built (and believe me, we can and will build it) and will consturct the biggest fleet on the planet. Integration of Sri Lanka into the mainland continues to progress, with many on the island coming to appreciate the wealth and glory of the United Maharajya. The SOC's promotion of Atlantia continues and many thousands of Maharajyans seeking to move into the colonies of the nation continue abroad, seeking additional opportunies there. Uttarshina is expanded by 1150 km inland toward Brasil, increasingly closing the final gap between the two territories.

The linking of cable lines make the transportation of messages easy and quick. However, a problem arises as there is are various cable languages in use. A pair of Orissan-Ethiopian scientists make the easiest cable language there is and name it the Uda Code (OTL Morse Code). The opinion of the British Isles continues to be hugely negative, and it seems this feeling will not die down for a long time. The language of Sankala continues to become very popular. As a first language, pupils learn it dedicatedly as they know it would become the language which could be communicated fluently with Orissans. The Imperium continues its railroad projects. The aim is to be able to connect the major Ethiopian cities in each corner of the nation to Addis Abbaba to make sure that trading spreads all throughout the nation. Consolidation of the many new lands integrated continues. Port towns continue to grow and fishing becomes a large source of income. The new roads to these towns help spread trade and make it easier for traders to enter and leave the towns for fish. The propaganda continues, fuelling Ethiopian rage and helping its people to work harder and better for the nation. People work for their nation and for greater prosperity. The army is upgraded with new rifles produced and given to the army, while the navy continues to work with the Orissan navy and train together. In Bado, the process of establishing thriving towns and villages continues. The locals under Ethiopian aid begin to learn of the ideas of plurocontinentalism and quickly begin to accept it. Already a demand for jobs arises in Bado and many tribes' people migrate into the towns to work and construct new housing and factories as well as build roads in the nation. The tribal people learn how to communicate by writing in Sankala, as the Ethiopians begin to implement it in schools and start to teach the Bado how to write with it. In Northern Antillia, colonists from Wahab continue to co-operate with the Inuit, providing them medicine and new goods in exchange for being able to learn more about them. Baridi sees many small outposts constructed and business opportunists head to the lands to be able to get new furs and wood. The nation continues to see a bright future. The propaganda continues to encourage different tribes to co-operate and inter-marry. This will help cause stability and peace in the empire and unite its peoples' even more. This is already happening in the cities as people from different areas move in and work. The nation's propaganda begins to tell its people that the first stage to revenge is close, and citizens could help the nation in any way they can. Many join up the army after reading the propaganda messages. As well this, there is a huge number of emigration from Ethiopia to Orissa seeing the union between the people's nations and the easy chance to go travel to the other nation in search of jobs. The nation also reports large numbers of Orissans coming into the nation to set up new lives, presumably for the same reasons. Many find employment in the reservoir projects which the Orissans excel in due to heavy experience in Orissa itself. The government begins to heavily consider beginning to greenify large tracts of lands which are not the best to farm on to make it more suitable for wildlife and make it rain. The nation is told that a war will soon take place to regain lost honour for the Ethiopian people.

Icarus discovers that two Bishops Guardsmen have been sent to spy on him and reclaim the observatory and promptly arrests them, declaring them "Welsh spies disguised aas clerics" and has them publicly executed in Ona Yagich. Massive amounts of government money are lowed into the infrastructure of the Yagich Atticus Colony in preparation for the 1844 Warrior Games, and many in Ona Yagich are disgusted that Icarus is holding them on his island home colony rather than in the Capital.

The Code begins to be taught to those sending and recieving messages to make their life easier and make communication easier. The Uda Code also gains popularity in the the United Maharajya. The opinion of the British Isles continues to be hugely negative, and it seems this feeling will not die down for a long time. The language of Sankala continues to become very popular. As a first language, pupils learn it dedicatedly as they know it would become the language which could be communicated fluently with Orissans. The Imperium continues its railroad projects.

The propaganda continues to encourage different tribes to co-operate and inter-marry. Effects can be seen in the cities and are continuing to grow. The large amount of people exhance between Orissa and Ethiopia continues. Many Orissans begin to marry Ethiopians and visa versa in Ethiopia and its territories, causing the mixed population to grow. The nation also reports large numbers of Orissans coming into the nation to set up new lives, presumably for the same reasons.

Venice begins to make a name for itself in tourism for the upper class, education and naval construction in some of the farther islands with the lagoon's sheltered and settled condition proving to be perfect for shipbuilding. Florence and a few other cities in central Italia become industrial centres as huge cloth weaving factories spring up to serve the growing demands of an expanding population.

 * Chappe_electric_telegraph.jpgy: Victor Schappe, son of the elder of the Schappe brothers (inventor of the visual semaphor telegraph system used in the German Empire and elsewhere) announces an invention: an electronic Schappe telegraph! The invention differs from the Ethiopian system because the electric pulses actually move the arms of a small semaphore! This means that the current telegraph operators do not need to learn a new code, and seeing as the controls are virtually identical, they need only minimal training to use the new devices. The Department of Telecommunications adopts the new invention, and telegraph lines are laid between the semaphore towers, which become electric repeating stations. The old manual poles will remain, for use in the frequent blackouts, and as a cheaper, slower alternative to sending messages by electric semaphore. In other news, the Kingdom of Tanimbarkai greatly expends its military, introducing the repeating air rifle into the army, and buying a gun-steamer from the Khmer Koch boatyards. In Saxon Australis, a 2nd Royal Australis Regiment is formed to assist the 1st RAR and the Imperial troops in defending the greatly-enlarged colony. Staying in Australis, the Weltzeituhr organises a competition, offering a large cash prize to the first exploratory team to cross the continent from Boniface to the Southern coast and back.

 * Persia's Shah Aslan's orders to find out a semi-republican government have not gone unheeded, and the advisor who led the project has drated a Constitution aimed at establishing a fair and equal government. This potential change in government is viewed by some as too radical, but by others as a vital way to maintaining the size of the current empire. New Persepolis is now a highly effective administrative center, and the city is showing signs of large wealth, as well as increasingly prevalent imperial structures. The economy of Persia is doing really well, and is currently the largest it has ever been. In Turkomenistan and Samani, the Turkomen vassal, the nations are now decently confident in the new Persian leaders who help oversee local affairs. Through exposure and already occurring factors (including Russian, Chinese, Indian, and Persian influences) the populations of Turkomenistan and Samani grown to a Nestorian plurality, with the Muslims no longer holding the plurality. This had been long anticipated, as the connection between Mecca and these states has long been broken by Nestorian Persia. The arranged marriage with Shaybah comes to fruition in the early summer when the Shahzada comes of age and marries the Emira of Shaybah.

 * Georgia is Neu Berliner.
 * That's where I draw the line with Scraw. There's no way he can control two nations halfway around the world.  Rex is way more plausible than Scraw, and the map shows that. Leave it alone.
 * Yet I was doing the same thing all this time with Germanica and Mysore. Or the Phillippines. I've yet to do something that involves implausible expansion, and I have not broken any expansion rules, which Rex has, vassalizing six states in three years. Punk.
 * Baghdad has grown into an immensely powerful city, and begins to rival New Persepolis in splendor.

1844
''' Russia enters into civil war after the childless Tsar dies under mysterious circumstances. Multiple "heirs" of questionable legitimacy arise, each with their own armies to seize the Imperial throne by force. The heavily Catholic vassals of Riga and Estonia join the Kingdom of Baltica. The Norweigan Dependancy and the Swedish vassal, already overlooked before the civil war, join the Empire of Scandinavia. The rest of Russia's vassal declare independance, leaving Russia with only Russia proper barely in their control. NOTE: It's been five days. You know what happens. And there's also the fact that he never did anything with his Scandinavian vassals. He didn't even acknowlege their existance. Seriously look up LX's posts and you'll find no mention of Norway or whatever name the Swedes are supposed to have.'''

'''Nonononononono this is bullSHIT. The Tsar is ELECTED in Russia and this is not fair because as of late, he's not the only one who's been active. The whole nation can't just collapse like that, because Russia is an ORTHODOX nation, and the Baltic states have been like such since the great Caliphate war. You can't just go about breaking up great powers for a stupid reason such as "has not posted for five years". People have lives and nations don't have to do shit all the time. If it was a weak, newly formed nation, this would have been acceptable, but Russia is neither weak nor new and is being attacked by Greedy Glutton Yank who just wants control of the region.'''

The opinion of the British Isles continues to be hugely negative, and it seems this feeling will not die down for a long time. The language of Sankala continues to become very popular. As a first language, pupils learn it dedicatedly as they know it would become the language which could be communicated fluently with Orissans. The Imperium continues its railroad projects. The large number of railroads bring greater progress to the nation and the inudstrial zone moves northward. Consolidation of the many new lands integrated continues. Port towns continue to grow and fishing becomes a large source of income. The new roads to these towns help spread trade and make it easier for traders to enter and leave the towns for fish.

The army is upgraded with new rifles produced and given to the army, while the navy continues to work with the Orissan navy and train together.

In Northern Antillia, colonists from Wahab continue to co-operate with the Inuit, providing them medicine and new goods in exchange for being able to learn more about them. Colonists from Wädäb begin to teach the Inuit a script to be able to write their language. Most of the Inuit are unsure of this revolutionary new idea but many show interest in learning it and using it to write Inuit. Baridi sees many small outposts constructed and business opportunists head to the lands to be able to get new furs and wood. The nation continues to see a bright future. The propaganda continues to encourage different tribes to co-operate and inter-marry. Effects can be seen in the cities and are continuing to grow. The large amount of people exhance between Orissa and Ethiopia continues. Many Orissans begin to marry Ethiopians and visa versa in Ethiopia and its territories, causing the mixed population to grow. The nation also reports large numbers of Orissans coming into the nation to set up new lives, presumably for the same reasons. Many find employment in the reservoir projects which the Orissans excel in due to heavy experience in Orissa itself. The government begins to heavily consider beginning to greenify large tracts of lands which are not the best to farm on to make it more suitable for wildlife and make it rain. With the allies of Mataram, the Ethiopians move into the land brutally quickly and liberate the numerous black slaves the Arabians have had. The conditions of the fellow Africans make Ethiopian blood boil and the nation moves with brutal pace, taking Arabs as captives and offering former slaves to join up and fight. Within the end of the year, the East Arabian Federation cannot continue to combat the combined might of the allies, and the nation's army collapses. The capital of the nation on both Comechellak and Africa are captured and the nation comes under the control of Ethiopia. Ethiopia's second army, poised at the Orissan Gold Coast see a huge boost in soldier numbers from freed slaves who are hugely grateful to the Ethiopians and vow to help them as repayment. Many cannot be supplied and are given captured Arabian weapons to make sure they can continue to fight. Orissan weapons are imported to arm the large number of troops. From the Gold Coast, Mali is invaded - with the aim of swiftly taking over the nation.
