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.

''' A powerful lord calls a meeting of Ethiopian lords to discuss the possibility of electing an emperor. The lords are appointed to a council and elect Bakaffa, of the Solomonic royal line, as emperor. His male descendants are sent to Wehni, and he is crowned. Meanwhile, the Pahang Kingdom makes a successful break from the Empire of Vietnam. The amount of support is large that most of the cities south of Narathiwat and north of Sumatra declare independence and opt for the protection of Pahang in return for incorporation into the kingdom. '''
 * Itsaygahi has been expanding south in Florida for many turns now, and since they got that grey portion down there that the Mamluks rule, they now should hold all of Florida, yet the map has not been updated at all for decades despite their expansion through there. Also, maybe Finland should be the color of Armenia, as Russia already has two Vassals (Kazahkstan and Livonia) and Finland would be loser controlled, like Armenia (also, since the Finns are making their own colonies, it would make it easier to distingish them apart)
 * About Talagi on Florida: i forgot.and Finland ain't a puppet state of Russia, like Armenia.both are united, like the Kalmar Union, and the Kalmar Union had the same colors for all the countries. i asked DK if i could make Finland/Russia the same colors, and he said yes.
 * I guess it would be up to Kogasa in this case.
 * Naples expands Ricasolia 1550 square kilometers from the eastern part of the island along the southern coast. Meanwhile, the Crusade is declared officially over, with the majority of the Neapolitan forces returning home, although some remain in Jerusalem to calm down the disorderly people there.

 * Naples has solidified its control over Jerusalem, and King Biondello and Queen Lucentia, reunited after a long seperation in the war, have their first child, who they name Romeo after the founder of the Entori dynasty in Naples. Meanwhile, they improve the infrastructure of Naples a great deal, due to the recent decrease in the quality of the infrastructure of the nation.

Under pressure from other members of the royal family, Gaganjit decides to launch an attack on the two major power bases at Bengalla (OTL Dhaka) and Aynwa (OTL Innwa), but they are ineffective. Toeh Ngoa Nyoing expands east 400 sq km from OTL Murmansk, as Toeh Ngoa Nyoing begins to show signs of dissent from the Mon crown.
 * Hungary updates its army.The Greek army is upgraded, along with the navy.since various parts of territory on the Nile were already taken, the caravels constructed will be useful for a few months when Egypt resumes expansion.However, given the instability of the country, using the armies stationed there to continue expanding is virtually impossible.the first tests are made, with some of them reaching Cairo.However, is stated that only few cannons can be placed, with the consequence of slowing the ship down, and is unknown if they will be efficient on battle.Újfundlandi expands 3050 sq km on its main island.
 * Finland continues to build up their military, and continue to build and improve some infrastructure. Finland also expands their new colony 50km inward.

After new sites of gold are discovered in the colony the government tries to take control, sending many ships to bring it back to Europe. One ship, coming into the bay (OTL Humboldt Bay) crashes into some rocks, which causes its shipload of gold to be drowned. This creates a legend of the wreck, and people walking along the bay will find washed up pieces of gold for decades. Meanwhile, the King-Emperor calls the Estates-General, and declares that it cannot be dissmissed for more than a year at a time, making it a type of Parliament. Finally, the Spanish alliance is accepted.
 * France builds up its military, waiting a new war to expand the Colonial Empire. The Parliament gives representation to Haiti and Malouinas-Terre de Feu. The Council votes for iniciate a new educational system: The school is divided in three periods: Primary (6 to 10 years), High School (10 to 16 years) and Final Schoolg (16 to 20 or 22); the education required by the government is divided in three branches: Science: Math and biology; Philosphy: Lenguages (French, Greek, Latin, Arab and Italian) and ancient philosohpy; Law: Basical knowledges of politics, economy and military. In the colonies of Naples, the missionaries start risings against the government, claiming the acceptance of their cult. The caliph travels to Hanthwaddy to convince the rebels to lay down the weapons.
 * Is that elaborate an education system plausible at this time? Not many people (farmers) could afford to send their children to school until 22 (or even 16). 
 * IN Russia, Peter Continues to fight the corrupt people in power. Peter's "new men" start replacing the old nobility in positions of power, basing their high position on competence, rather than bloodright. More MIlitary expansion occurs.

They begin to torch Sunni Mosques and destroy Sunni villages, killing thousands with a bloodthirstyness rarely seen since the middle ages. Massive amounts of refugees poor into the areas surrounding these colonies, fleeing the Neapolitan destruction. Many Neapolitans have become sickened by this act the government and the Catholic church has done, and convert to Schmittism. They all travel to Istoias, which is expanded by 1550 square kilometers northward due to the massive amount of new colonists.
 * Yemen continues to expand north-west by non-Mamluk territory. Yemen also continues to lay the newly researched road types, which are stronger than dirt-paved roads.

 * With Itsaygahi reaching a new height, Florida being entirely absorbed, the Huron becoming a cohesive kingdom sending tribute to the capital, and the Natchez being given the right to claim all land around the drainage basin of the Mixxixxippi west of the Ohayo by the Queen, and a new wave of expansion towards the Great Lakes, a new Golden Age is declared.
 * The king Jean expands the military, and he becomes the Gran Maester of the Order of Saint Robert. Meanwhile, the missionaries are still crossing the frontier and urging rebelions. Some mercenaries and militias, against the will of the Caliph, invade Tunisia, and some mamluk soldiers, under the orders of the radical heir to the Caliphate, Selim, invade Jerusalem. Rumors of failed assassing trying to invade Rome and kill the Pope start circulate Italy. To fix the civil problem, the archbishop Jean Cardinal Bertrand of Avgnon and the caliph travel to Rome and offer the Pope and the King Biondello to annul the prohibition of the sunnism. In case of asks its help, France will sopport Persia. The Caliph travels to Yemen and offers to the sultan the posibility of expand his frontiers invading the neighboor countries.

 * the Kingdom of Egypt wants to start diplomatic relations with Ethiopia.
 * Mamluk Egypt is in civil disarray, and thereby, has no player controlling it.

1723
''' The Arabian famine ends but the effects linger on... '''
 * The Vietnamese and their vassals continue on their campaign of military expansion. The Vietnamese launch a naval blockade on mainland Joseon, severing the connection with their colonies. The Joseon Navy, weakened from decades of neglect and with a majority of its ships scrapped, stands little chance of breaking the blockade.
 * Persia: Persia manages to finish the road project within the country and is begining to connect the highway with the Russians and Chinese. It also asks Hanthawaddy to establish trade relations through sea trade.
 * Yemen sends their diplomats to  Persia , offering them a trade agreement: Will sell iron ore for leather. They also expand north-west.
 * effects of the Napolitan war continue in Greece.more refugees flee to Tripolitania, and the ensuing overpopulation leads Greece (via Hungary) to ask for buying territories of the neighboring Swedish colony and Tunisia.Meanwhile, the Hungarian King Géza dies, and is succeeded by his son Zoltán, crowned as Zoltán II.Neos Preveza expands 500 sq km inland west.Újfundladn és a Labnrador expands 2550 sq km inland on its main island.
 * Finland continues to build up their military, and continue to build and improve some infrastructure. Finland also expands their new colony 50km inward.
 * Ethiopia (much to its pleasent surpise) discovers Naples to be a almost fanatical zealous nation. The Emperor sends word to Naples, asking their support in an upcoming invasion of the Islamic nation of Sennar, to Ethiopia's west. They also make the same proposal to the Hungarians (whom they found in control of much of Egypt).
 * The Anglo-German Commonwealth, in an attempt to make their people more literate, decides to copy the French early education system. The schooling is free, but for farmers only goes up to 13 (as by this time children are needed as help in agriculture). Citygoers become much more educated, however, and their are questions whether ruling by 'Imperial Decree' is the best system.
 * I'm not the one to usualy judge, but wasnt free public education for children a response to child labour in industrial factories? -Lx
 * The Russians Give the Secret to the Penza rifling to Finland, and the secret to the steam engine, as part of the Confederation. Peter Orders that each Gubernatorial Capital have at least two secondary schooling institutions. More and more iron mills apear in central Russia and one appears in Villnus. So far the textile factory in Nizhny Novgorod reamins he only one in Russia, let alone the world. Novorossiya expands 3000km inland towards the great lakes, while canada only does so 500 px inland. Russia is becoming a refuge for muslims persecuted in Neapolitain colonies. Most settling in Kazakhstan Armenia or OTL Tatarstan.
 * France offers a cooperative education system to the Commonwealth, in which the both countries will share the new technologies, as expansion of the trade agreement. France will sell to the Commonwealth books and knowledges of the french and arabs (like military strategies), plus some resources like haitian sugar free military training of the Commonwealth's recruits in french and egyptian Army Schools, in exchange, the Commonwealth will share information and technologies with France. The french empire builds up its military. In the Parliament, Voltaire becomes Prime Minister, increasing the seats and powers of the people in the french policy. France offers to Yemen, Persia, Egypt (Hungary), Jerusalem (Naples) and Ethiopia create a organization to manage the trade and foreign relation in the Arabic Peninsula. The organization also will serve as support for the Islam and a fundamental pillar for the relationships between the Middle East countries. The missionaries are still causing problems to the government, in Tunisia more than anything.
 * Yemen agrees to join the organisation and hereby signs the document of doing so.
 * Rebellions in the south of Hanthawaddy spread along the Irrawaddy River Valley as far south as Pegu near the mouth of the river and as far north as Sagaing. The leader of the rebellion, known simply as U Kyan, writes a manifesto justifying Burmese independence and creation of the Union of Hanthawaddy, criticizing the idea of a multi-ethnic empire, and mobilizing the people. This is also in response to the fact that Mons, for hundreds of years, had begun to be slowly displaced from the South of Burma, and settled in Bengal and other areas of the Empire of Hamthawaddy. Emperor Gaganjit does not receive the manifesto well, and declares full-on war. He attempts to invade Hanthawaddy through the mountains and then the sea, but is pushed back by the sheer force of the Union armies. Kumbasem (near Kulin) expands west along the coast at 1300 sq km.
 * The Chinese Emperor dies without naming an heir. A gigantic funeral, the largest in history as of 1723. Despite his producing of multiple offspring, the family starts bickering over who is the rightful leader of China. While the fighting is bloodless, it creates a scandal of legitimate and illegitimate heirs claiming the crown. In the end, an already sucessful heir is appointed King by an election among the family. The Chinese infrastructure improves in both mainland China and the overseas colonies.
 * Naples continues to fight the war in the colonies. KIng Biondello refuses the proposal offered to him by Jean and the Caliph, stating that he will not change his policies due to the rebellious and murderous actions of infidels. He refuses to sell any land to Greece. He tells Ethiopia that Naples will support the Ethiopians in the war with Sennar, due to his support of that Christian nation. A trade route between Ethiopia and Naples is supported. The armies in Tunisia and Jerusalem continue the genocidal war.
 * Spain continues upgrading its roads and navy, with the last of the ships being completed. Spain secretly prepares to invade Portugal in 1724, begining to mobilise its army and navy.
 * lets hope that this invasion of portugal doesnt go eldwolf.
 * Stop comparing him to Eldwolf! Playing as the same nation makes him no more likely to be a troll than someone playing as any other nation. If I were Spain's player, I would be offended that you assume he is a troll because he plays as the same nation a troll did. Stop, seriously!
 * Thank you, whoever said that.
 * I meant that as a joke!
 * ​Sweden and Scotland upgrade their militaries. Sweden expands Asgard by 2750sqkm.

1724

 * Naples: The Neapolitan forces gain more ground against the rebels in Tunisia and Jerusalem, killing thousands of civilians in the process, including a few non-Muslims. However, the constant warfare against the Muslim world has begun to show signs of becoming unpopular among the highly taxed people of Naples. The anti-Muslim frenzy that occured after the martyrdom of King Angelo has died out by now.
 * Persia: Persia finishes connecting the parts of the highway with Russia and China. It also signs trade agreements with Hanthawaddy and talks about a possible invasion of the Mughals.*China already invaded and destroyed the Mughals.
 * But you didn't even divided the territory.that's why it wasn't added on the map.the only clue that i have is Hanthawaddy's territory, but, the Commonwealth should get any territory?if yes, which?and Persia?
 * I am currently drawing the map, though I have been extremely busy lately.
 * The Vietnamese and their vassals continue their campaign of military expansion.
 * The offer for buying territory from Tunisia or the Swedish colony stays up.eventually, the offer to Sweden is withdrawn because no answer was received.The situation complicates, with the military on Tripolitania claming for war, and Michael trying to avoid it by all means available,However, popular support for a war is very strong, although the equipment is a bit outdated.Jews continue to arrive to Greece from Jerusalem.Meanwhile, at Hungary, already tired of the situation between Naples, Hungary and Greece, King Zoltán declares that his nation holds no responsibility for Greece's decisions, essentially abandonging Greece in case of war, and disencouraging Michael even more.Hungary continues upgrading the military.Neos Preveza expands 750 sq km inland, Ufundlandi expands 1400 sq km on its main island, and Dél-Afrika expands 900 sq km.
 * Yemen is very unhappy that, after they sent diplomats to Naples and Persia, to offer trade agreements, these diplomats had to wait over one year, and still didn't receive any response. Therefore, Yemen issues an embargo agaist Naples and Persia. They also extend their boundaries north-east.
 * The ambitious Swedish king is unable to resist the tempations of the Incan rumors. He marshals the fleets and sails into South America and invades the Incan Empire. The Southern part of the Empire where the invasion occurs reminds Charles of Norway and he declares he shall name the new Swedish dominion Fjordland. Asgard is expanded by 3050 sqkm. Scotland continues military development. A part of the Swedish fleet goes off course and lands in Hawaii. The Joseon govenor is panicing as the Joseon king has not contacted him for ages. The governor is told the situation and accepts that the Joseon Empire will collapse. He eventually asks to join the Swedish Empire rather than become easy pickings for the Vietmanese or Chinese. Hawaii is incorporated into the colony of Asgard. Meanwhile Swedish blacksmiths are on the verge of a breakthrough with the steam engines...
 * Finland continues to build up their military, and continue to build and improve some infrastructure. Finland also expands their new colony 50km inward.
 * France builds up its military. Voltaire publish a book about the separation between the State and the Church, proposing stop the religious racism and policy in the whole Empire, but respecting all the religions. The Caliph asks the Pope and the King of Naples to be rational. Meanwhile, his heir commands a great horde of muslims to Tunisia, and send assasins to murder the Pope. The Caliph asks for an allaince with Ethiopia. The Caliph strts new relationships with the foreign muslim nations, inviting their leaders to the Hajj (this includes Yemen and Persia). Some schmittists rebels in Haiti invade Ricasolia to support their muslim brothers in Algeria and Arabia.
 * Naples: The attack on the Pope injured him, but failed to kill him. The Pope excommunicates the king of France until the King tries to stop the anti-Neapolitan rebellions within his empire. King Biondello has all of the Ricasolian Schmittists transported to Istoias, however, once there, the Istoiasan Schmittists are horrified that the Schmittists in the Caribbean were so violent, and have them isolated in a distant part of the colony where they will not be a bad influence. The genocide continues, the assassination attempt against the Pope destroyed whatever chance of peace may have arisen from the calming of the anger over Angelo's death. The Governor of Jerusalem, wanting more forces to fight the Muslims there, begins to encourage Jews from across Europe (other than Greece) to travel to Jerusalem to drive out the occupyers on their Holy Land. Many Jews do begin to travel to Jerusalem, and join in on the genocide to attempt to drive the Muslims away.
 * You do know that the more that you encourage the revolts to occur, the longer and more brutal they will be? I am beginning to doubt that I will be realistically capable of making any situation that doesn't end in almost all of the Sunni Muslims in these two colonies being wiped off the face of the earth.
 * Russia seems not to like this genocide and provides official shelter for the Muslims escaping genocide. The Patriarch of Moscow will willingly accept the King of France and the into christian orthodoxy. more and more refugees form the middle east in mass numbers, many fleeing genocide.
 * Why do the Pope excommunicate the King of France, who was always against this act of rebelliousness? Though the King of France and the Caliph will be always allies of Russia and the russian domains, the king is still roman and the Pope is being ireasonable. He asks his aunt Lucentia to reincorporate France, the faithful and eternal ally of Naples and Rome, into the glorious grace of the Church. The prince of Arabia sends word to the Pope and the King of Naples: "I do not wanna start a war between your principality and my father's, and less a war with our protector France and Rome. I only ask the King to be reasonable and stop this ungodly and nosense genocide, to start again the peace between Rome and Mecca. As Mohammed is relative to Jesus, the Catholicism and islam can be brothers".
 * Chantuk Raballiyah becomes a leading member of Itsaygahi's military class. He calls for the streamlining of inefficient bureaucratic government, a redrawing in the boundaris of power in Itsaygahan society, and a reduction in the powers of the increasingly autocratic monarchy. The new King Ehkago I does not react well to this, and dismisses the Royal Body, Itsaygahi's Parliament
 * China declares war on, and invades, the Incan Empire with Sweden. They have their eyes on OTL Chile and parts of Argentina, though an ambitious assault on Cuzco is proposed. Several Chinese warships make the trek across the Pacific, reaching and setting up several camps along the East Incan shore.
 * Ethiopia happily accepts Naples' trade proposal, and soon raw resources from Africa are being sent to Naples. And just to win more support from Naples, the Emperor issues an issue decree that all Muslims must leave Ethiopia. Meanwhile, Ethiopia declares war on, and invades Sennar with Naples' support. Sorry-I'm kind unsure of how to do a war- I'm going to start writing it on the Talk page but I'll make some mistakes.
 * Spain declares war on Portugal, launching a diversionary attack in the south east corner of Portugal. This attack reaches the south west corner of the Iberian Peninsula. This causes the Portugese army to rush south to defend, opening the way for the main Spanish army, led by the Ranger corps, attacking from the north. After much fighting with the disoriented Portugese army, the coastal city of Oporto is taken. King Phillip orders a reorganisation of tactics to further confuse the Portugese army.
 * The Hanthawaddy Union gains the favor of the Rajah of Toeh Ngoa Nyoing. Chauhhpiu, long a cultural island, declares independence from Hanthawaddy as the Free City of the White Elephant, writing a constitution that incorporates some elements of European politics. Imperial Hanthawaddy's economy plummets to the point that it is dependent on aid from generally wealthy Ngenkeh. Haklon expands south at 500 sq km.
 * The Russian Tsar Condemns the Genocides made by the Neopolitains. Peter Officialy declares Kazakhstan a safe heaven for all sunni Muslim Refugees. The influx of refugies is already starting, as over one million have already migrated to Kazan and Kazakhstan. The Russians start slowing trade with naples. The Muscovian Patriarch, head of the Russian Orthodox church, hearing of the injustice dopne to the king of France, offers him a place in the Orthodox christian community, along with the entire french nation(note that russia does not give a rat's ass about what he pope says, they're orthodox not catholic). Russia starts to welcome more african muslims into the Kazakhstani comunity. Meanwhile, canada expands 3500 km towards the great lakes via the St lawreence river.

Bout the map...LAke ontario's the other lake, the one you put the iroquois is lake erie...-Lx
 * Naples: The old Pope dies from complications of his wounds, and the new Pope undoes the excommunication of the king of France, claiming the old Pope was too old and irrational to think clearly. Meanwhile, the horrible acts of genocide in Jerusalem has resulted in so many Sunni Muslims being dead or having fled the nation that there is not a large enough population to successfully revolt against the government. However, the new Pope is a much more liberal man, and convinces the Neapolitan governor to help the Sunni leave Jerusalem, instead of just killing them. In Tunisia the genocide was less effective, and many Sunnis still revolt, however, the governor ends the genocide on the condition that the revolts stop as well Vast new swathes of land are open in Jerusalem, and many non-Greek Jews continue emigrating to that area to live on the newly open land. Queen Lucentia sends word to Sweden that she will send the forces currently in Tunisia and Jerusalem to help against the Incas, due to the genocide having been ended and the violence having stopped. She states that Naples will take whatever territory is left over to take.
 * Persia: Persia begins to open trade routes to the west and allows western arts and architecture to be adopted in the country. Also, it invites Russian leaders to ask them about the Ottoman Empire and asks whether they should destroy them or not.
 * I'm pretty sure the ottomas are either dead or somebody's vassal, however, I would fancy some land in the new warlord states...but I cant agree to war alone anymore, Finland has to consent.
 * Currently, they were toppled and replaced with Turan. Persia doesn't have any borders with the Turans, however, maybe they should concentrate on Shahrzur (in which one more war should take them out) instead
 * France builds up its military. The king joins the war against the Incas. The prince Selim becomes Caliph and declares that all muslim who still in revolt is an heretic, lessen the rebellions in Tunisia. The king also decides it is time to expand the Empire in Africa, and declares war on New Shongay to annex it. The king and the caliph are really sorry because of the previous neapolitan issues, and donate several quantities of money and resources to the Church. Meanwhile, Voltaire becomes schmittist, and the duke Pierre dies, leaving his title as Duke of Malounias and Terre de Feu to the heir of the throne: Robert.
 * The new Pope wishes to meet with the Caliph Selim to bring an end to the Muslim vs. Christian violence.
 * The Caliph accords a meeting with the Pope to end the "war" He also start to planing the Second Crusade for the next decade.
 * The crisis continues.parts of the army stationed on Tripolitania start to plan a attack on Naples without permission of the King.the plan is discovered, but virtually no action is taken initially.already trying to avoid a war, Zoltán intervenes on Greece, basically making Michael a figurehead while he takes the actual decisions. with the problems on Tripolitania, he, at discovering the plan, exonerates all the military involved on this, including soldiers.most are exiled to Ezsák-Afrika, while transporting the muslims fleeing from naples to Egypt via Tripolitania becomes the standard procedure.relations with the Papal states are reestabilished, Meanwhile, on Hungary, inspired on the French parliament, Zoltán creates the Council of Nobles, to fu nction as the french parliament, but totally subordinated to the king.initially, only the higher nobles can be part of the Council.Neos Preveza expands 1500 sq km inland and along the coast, and Ezsák-Afrika, due to the influx of "settlers", expands 550 sq km.Dél-Afrika expands 1000 sq km.
 * Yemen expands north-east and does not sign cooperation treaty with France. Therefore, they establish new villages in their newly taken territories.
 * The Vietnamese and their vassals continue their campaign of military expansion leading to the upcoming war.
 * Finland continues to build up their military, and continue to build and improve some infrastructure. Finland also expands their new colony 50km inward.
 * The King's attempt to enforce his will on the vassals leads to war. He does not have the organisational ability to run the entire realm in times of war, and summons the Royal Body again. The military group demands that the vassals have seats in the Royal Body, so the Body is dismissed again.
 * Ethiopia thanks Naples for sending its support in the war with Sennar, and asks for a formal alliance with Naples. Much to Ethiopia's pleseant suprise, Sweden, the Netherlands, Scotland, and Estonia have al sent support. Ethiopia sends formal requests to establish trade routes with those nations as well as Russia and Hungary.
 * The Russians agree to attempt to trade with Etheopia, but are worried due to etheopia's lack of sea border. Peter I of Russia, during one of his sea voyages that he loves so much, viewieng much of the Baltic, spots a shipwreck. He orders his crew to search for survivors. The crew obey their "Kapitan"(Peter was famous for asking not to b called emperor while he was on a ship, but simply captain, or sir.). Peter was not excluded from the action. Peter, seeing a sailor stranded in the water, leaps out of his lifeboat, into the freezig waters of the Baltic to save him. Upon his return to St Petersburg, he falls ill. He falls ill of a sore flu that is worse than anything that he ever had to overcome before, and it got the better of him. Peter dies. Upon his deathbed, he is famous for his words while naming a final successor, while lyuing there. Feeling the end is near, he orders his secretary to fetch a pen and paper and write what he says: "leave everything to..." and falls into a sleep from witch he will never awaken. Soonafter, Catherine, his wife, will crown herself empress of all the russias by right of next of kin, as she was proclaimed co-ruler along with Peter. Thus starts the century of women. Meanwhile, 10 days of mourning are proclaimed. Novorossiyais expanded 3000 km inland, and canada 500km towards the great lakes. Meanwhile, the first Steel plant opens up in Minsk, Riga, Irkutsk, and Nicolaevsk. People are thinking about bringing the steam engine to novorossiya and Canada and Novaya Kamchatka
 * The Spanish navy sails around to the port of Oporto, to pick up troops and the Ranger corps for the assault on Lisbon. when the Spanish army arrives in Lisbon, they find it largely undefended, due to the confusion in the Portugese army, caused by the multiple attacks from Spain. They take the city within a week, deposing the government, and causing the King of Portugal to send messengers to the army commanders, telling them to surrender, as the capital has fallen, and Portugal becomes part of Spain. However, there is still some resistance from some cities and guerrilla warfare from underground movements, and it is expected to take at least two more years to remove all these movements.
 * The Hanthawaddy Union request an alliance to Anglo-Germany, hoping the technology of the area will benefit the new government. Hpasem is renamed U Kyan City. Imperial Hanthawaddy expands irs economy, hoping to increase the Union's dependence on it. It also offers incentives for Mons to move to the Brahmaputra River valley and protect Mon culture.
 * China takes more Incan land, focusing on surrounding Cuzco and starving it of resources. In the meantime, the Chinese infrastructure drastically improves.
 * Sweden sends some military aid to Spain with Scotland and Estonia and Netherlands give supplies. Sweden crushes a disorganized portion of the Incan Army. By now the Incan coastline and Southern areas have fallen. Sweden launches a daring attack on Cuzco with its elite Norweign Mountain Rangers. These troops are trained in the harshest winter mountain conditions in Norway. They infiltrate the city and allow it to fall from within. The panicked Incan King evacuates to Quito. Sweden produces its first steam engine and the king is joyous. New sweden is expanded by 3050sqkm as the seized Incan lands form the seventh Swedish colony of Southlaand. Sweden encourages Spain or Hanthawaddy to join the war to gain OTL Ecuador and Northern Peru.
 * The Governor of New Hanthawaddy states it will offer minor support, asking Sweden to hold onto the territory until the situation in Burma improves. Hanthawaddy will allow Sweden to retain all rights, including that to mine gold in the territory including and to the north of OTL Chiclayo, with no limit on how far inland, until Hanthawaddy can afford to take it over.

1726

 * Neapolitan forces assail the south-eastern part of the Incan Empire, attacking OTL southern Chile. Meanwhile, Queen Lucentia begins to increase the volume of trade with foreign nations, resulting in a growing merchant class. The anti-Islamic feelings in Naples have died down, and in fact the exposure to the Muslim world has resulted in many Arabic-style art movements beginning to become very popular within Naples. Jerusalem and Tunisia have pretty much settled down by this time. Many Jews continue to arrive in Jerusalem, and now make up 40% of the population.
 * Persia: Persia once again declares war against Shahzrur. It manages to catch troops by suprise and begin invading towns and villages nearby.
 * The Vietnamese and their vassals continue their campaign of military expansion to prepare for the upcoming war with Joseon.
 * A messenger arrives with a warning "Ireland may have fallen and so has Jerusalem but Joseon shall not, we warn you the northern confederacy and the Crusaders will smite your forces and crush your people. Their blood will be spilt in return for your actions." Back in Venice, Milan and the Crusader States vietnamese and those accused of being so are publicly executed in violent manners, the most popular is having their jaw ripped off and then slowly being dissected while under a strong natural painkiller.
 * The Vietnamese respond by cutting off trade with the Italian states and their Crusader puppets. They also deport any Venetian merchants in Vietnam they can find. In revenge of the innocent Vietnamese citizens slaughtered by meddling Venetians, they execute any Venetian merchant who resists deportation by taking a page out of Wallachia's infamous Vlad the Imapler. Unlike the Venetian mob killings, they do so without an form of painkillers.
 * The Vietnamese recieve a letter detailing that "Vietnamese blood will spill beyond the Venetian borders ... that no Vietnamese will feel safe as long as they continue to occupy european land"
 * Why is it that the Italian states cannot keep their noses out of Vietnamese business?
 * It began as a religious and political fued and now has developed into something more after the Vietnamese invasion of Ireland and the subsequent thumbed noses at Venice.
 * I assume that Neapolitan & Papalini trade was not cut off and Neapolitan & Papalini merchants were not killed, because Naples (and its vassal Papal States and puppet Jerusalem) are still good allies of Vietnam and never interfered with Vietnam's affairs at all.
 * The Vietnamese have ceased their expansion in Europe. The Venetians need to stop thinking of themselves as "Team Venice: Europe Police". Clearly you have learned nothing from your earlier banning. Let me make myself clear. You are not the master of this game. You do not get to dictate what people do in it. You are taking the fun out of his game with your temper tantrums.
 * Heh. You are currently the only one throwing a temper tantrum. I am playing out Venice, you made yourself their enemy and now have to deal with it. Venetians and North Italians alike hate the Vietnamese and now the new government uses this to bring order again. Pointing the finger at an easy suspect, Vietnam. Also its "Venice: Europe Liberation Force, GO!" Plus Venetian traders are unlikely to be in Vietnam, trade ended a long time ago, Vietnamese however could easily be in Venice considering how easy it is to get there and the fact that trade with Ireland never ended until now.
 * Naples sends word to Venice that they should not fight Vietnam, the Vietnamese are fellow Christians, the Koreans are not. Naples was planning to send aid to Vietnam, but is unsure due to the Vietnamese apparently thinking Naples is their enemy...
 * The Vietnamese Emperor sends apologies to Naples, as the Neapolitan executions had been done by Vietnamese citizens angered by the murders of their friends and relatives in Venice, which has begun to be referred to by the Vietnamese as " ", or "City of Blood" in Vietnamese. The Vietnamese Emperor personally sends letters to the relatives of the Neapolitans killed, along with gifts of valuable heirlooms as peace offerings.
 * Naples calms back down, but states that they are afraid that they will be unable to send supplies for the war in Korea due to too many other wars.
 * The Koreans can be reasoned with replies Venice. Venice also notes that Ireland was a jewel of the christian faith with little straying but a tad away from it, Vietnam essentially ended that and now Venice shall have to make up for the loss of faith in catholocism. They also point out that Korea can be influenced and Venice was plunged into chaos before it had a chance, Naples should think carefully before regarding the Vietnamese as true christians.
 * Naples' ambassadors state that Joseon itself is not threatened, only their colonies are threatened. Sweden took the Korean colony of Hawaii, yet Venice is not challenging them. Therefore, Venice should stay out of the war in the east as long as Vietnam does not attack Joseon itself.
 * The Council of Nobles is reorganized into a Low and a High Chamber, with the Low Chamber being reserved for the low-ranking nobles, the zemans, and the High Chamber for the high-ranking nobles, which already were on the original Nobles' Council.each noble family has right to one representant on the council.Hungary updates its military, including the one on the garrisons of Öböl.Meanwhile, in Greece, Zoltán once again asks Naples for a more complex non-aggression pact, on the objective of avoiding a war with Naples.back in Egypt, the situation begins to stabilize,both Uruguay and Öböl expands 800 sq km towards each other.Neos Preveza expands 1450 sq km.
 * Naples agrees to sign the pact, although they don't know why the Greeks are always so scared of a nation that never threatened them at all
 * Yemen expands north-east and continues to prepare their army for invasion of rival tripes in Arabia.
 * After 35 months of fighting in Sennar, Ethiopia makes an uneasy peace agreement with Sennar, and takes the easternmost tenth of Sennar's territory. The Nobles, and wealthy landlords who ruled this area are Christianized and sent to seize the area aournd OTL Assab in the name of Ethiopia. Emperor Bakaffa has plans to build a new capitol city on the coast there.
 * Yemen sends Ethiopia a military aid of 1'000 spearmen to help them in their expansion.
 * Ethiopia responds by requesting a trade agreement.
 * Yemen accepts the offer and establishes the trade route between Aden and their city.
 * Finland continues to build up their military, and continue to build and improve some infrastructure. Finland also expands their new colony 50km inward.
 * The troops of the Duke Robert of Terre de Feu and Voltaire start to invade the southern Inca Empire. Meanwhile, the Order of Saint Robert, led by Jean III invades New Songhay and starts to bombard thw ports and asault the strongholds, while the missionaries are beginning to convert he native popultion to Catholicism and Schmittism and the new-caliphal Islam. France builds up its military adding to its armies new siege weapons and thousands of recruits of the whole empire. Some troops of Arabia and Algeria are sent to Persia to help it against the Shahzur.
 * Songhay is landlocked, you cannot attack it as there is no way your troops can get to it. Do you mean New Songhay? Check the labelled map on the talk page, the African kingdoms part is not out of date. Plus, it is already Muslim, so you cannot convert them to Islam.
 * Corrected.
 * "FOR VENICE, FOR THE TRUE DOGE, FOR GOD!" screams the last Furioso heir. "The times of Venice being ruled by a criminal are over, Now begins the reign of the Ombreggia family!" Venice has been tossing and turning for the last 30 years over the events of the Furioso take over and now they are dead murdered by another Family, the Ombreggia. The recent fighting in the last years was brutal and now rumours of Family take overs have been spread to the other northern states. Venice meanwhile arms itself, with new weapons and tactics, also they begin construction of a new navy. Venice is back and with new management
 * Naples is glad that Venice has recovered. The Pope apoligizes, stating that the nobleman controlling the Crusader state of Jerusalem had turned against the Church, and that he was replaced and now Jerusalem is under the control of the Papal states and Naples. However, he notes that a large chunk of the Papal states that borders Venice broke away to form the nation of Fuzzolia, and that Countess Giovanna Fuzoli would gladly make her nation a vassal under Venetian rule, similar to how Milan is in relation to Venice.
 * The Doge receives Naples well and accepts the joining of Fuzolia into the confederacy. They are angered about the death of the Nobleman and demands that his body is returned to Venice, so he may have a burial as a warrior and hero of Venice.
 * The Nobleman was not excecuted and allowed to return to Venice, but it appears that he might have crashed and died on the way if Venice never recieved him.
 * The King Jean III of France and Egypt is just delighted with the return of the venetian order: "The french people has miss its faithful and supportive ally, and we hope start the alliance, trade and friendship between our countries again". The caliph Selim I of Algeria travels to Venice to ask the new doge his position about the religious discrimination between ctholics and muslim.
 * The Doge replies inclined, saying that France can expect Venice to be able to assist it and that Egypt will now have a large trade route now applied to it. They also add that the Catholics and the Muslims are treated equally in trade however now that the new Church of Venice (catholic based) has been made, Venetian citizens who are Venetian Class have to adopt the religion however Italian Class, Citizen Class and Resident Class citizens do not have to.
 * The King of Itsaygahi calls the Royal Body again, agreeing to accept Vassal's seats in the Body. However, the demands of the Body are unpalatable, and the mobs growing in the major cities of Itsaygahi are particularly worrying, so he takes the feudal loyalist lords in the Body and sets up a new Body in the solidly loyal Seminole areas. Itsaygahi is one the verge of civil war.
 * who is fighting who here btw?
 * On one side is the vassals, the military officer class, the Marcher Lords and the merhcant trading class of the Charter Port Cities. On the other is the King, the nobility, the Church, the Seminole majority areas, and many of the older towns.
 * Tensions between Imperial Hanthawaddy and the Hanthawaddy Union subside, although there are still minor naval conflicts. Hanthawaddy updates its economy, and Haklon expands south at 1400 sq km.
 * Spain: After having defeated Portugal, king Phillip orders the rangers back to their feifs, except for two, who he sends with the army to the New Incan Empire, to assist the nations fighting there.
 * Sweden secures Cuzco and the Incan Empire is on the verge of defeat. The Norweign Mountain Ranger troops prepare an attack on the mountain fortess of Quito and the other Swedish troops have along with the Napolitian, Spainish, French and Chinese; secured the entire Inccn Empire up to Southern Peru. Sweden starts to create more steam engines and based on previous successful designs, make 4 more over the year. Sweden expands New Sweden by 3050sqkm.
 * As a gift to china, the Empress of Russia gives china a steam engine, its designs, and how to work it, so they can reproduce for work in its capital. Seeing that there are more genocides centering out of the italian peninsula, the Russian Empress frowns upon this in anger, and updeates the military for possible action. Novorossiya expands 3000 km inland. Meanwhile, the iroquois expand their territory of influence further south. the first factories are made in Lithuania, and in kazakhstan's capital already three mills have been built.
 * China thanks Russia. Work on the steam engine begins immediately, though many scholars scorn the use of the steam engine. Nevertheless, ideas for use of the steam engine flood in. The most daring idea: a vehicle powered by the steam engine!

1727
''' Disaster strikes Persia as the ground under Tabriz buckles and breaks swallowing buildings whole. The entire city is left in ruins and estimates state there are at least 80,000 dead.

Small amounts of production have started on the Capitol (though mass building of building there won't start until next year. The city is to be modeled after Naples or St. Petersburg. The city will be named Gänana Anorä, but in colonial slang will soon be called just Gananora.

 * Venetian architects arrive in Ethiopia and plan to assist Ethiopia's construction of its new capitol.

He says goodbye to his wife Lucentia and his sons Romeo and Benvolio and daughter Maria. He then sets sail toward South America. He arrives at the Neapolitan areas, and then takes control of the Neapolitan army. The army moves through the Incan territory easily, and soon most of Patagonia has been conquered. Alas, for the army became too overstretched, and they are surrounded. Biondello and his forces fight valiantly, but they are all killed. The Neapolitan forces are forced back down to the coastal areas of eastern Patagonia, crushed by this great loss of a great leader.
 * Yemen expands north-east. But no major changes in government happen.

 * In China, a vehicle using a steam engine continues to be thought of, among other ideas. Aid is sent to Persia as military units are sent to Inca to seize more land.
 * The Vietnamese and their vassals continue to expand their military in preperation for the upcoming Korean War.

The upcoming war is to be fought mostly on the seas and in the various Korean colonies.
 * The Venetians warn that should free Japan be touched, Venice will fight, it will not lay still as the devils of the east calling themselves Christian destroy another nation.
 * Your definition of "free" is "interesting" to say the least.
 * The Vietnamese respond by stating that they "will not easily bow to the rabid murderous thugs of the west calling themselves Christian."
 * Venice continues to demoralise the Vietnamese of Europe after Privateers begin to cut off a majority of trade ships, those that are captured are dealt with brutally. The hero of Jerusalem returns to Venice alive and declares his son the new ruler of the north holy land. Fuzoli impressed by Venice and their offer however wanting to remain slightly independent, joins the confederacy in a manner similar to Milan. Venice manufactures a huge war fleet of the greatest new ship in the navy, the Venetian ship of the line, this continues to greatly improves their military standing. Venice also has a religious surge into the Church of Venice, the ideal being about conversion of others.

He attempts to do the same in Algeria, Arabia and the colonies, but the local governors don't allow him to do it. The king starts bringing near to Hungary and Russia now their governments are more "parlamentary".
 * State Health Plans in the 18th Century? That is unrealistic to the uttermax

 * Egypt accepts the French offer.
 * Incan Empire: The Incan Empire, after decades of isolation, begins to expand once more and begins looking for allies around te world. Pleas with te nations of the world to stop attacking te Inca and to withdraw from te Empire are sent out to every nation that will take notice.
 * Currently the Incan Empire is mostly in disarray and being massively invaded, the only part you could control would be the tiny light gray part in OTL Peru. You could probably expand it some through the dark grey parts, but not enough to unite the empire in time to stop the invasion
 * Ethiopia attempts to convince some of the nations that are invading the Inca so stop, but does not put any real diplomatic, economic, or military pressure on anyone.
 * All out war breaks out between the King and the Royal Body of Itsaygahi. The Kingdomis split, roughly East-West. The King has the most immediate upper hand, controlling the capital and some of the most established areas of the country as opposed to the frontier nature of much of the land under the Royal Body. However, the Marcher Lords, the Vassals and the Military class have more troops to draw upon and can wage war more effectively compared to the King's more antiquated ceremonial troops.

They are used to achieve superhuman feats of energy and help lift the final blocks of the Stockholm Cathedral which is completed at last. The chatedral rivals the one in Moscow and towers over all but the lighthouse. The Netherlands lays claim to Northern Flanders and attempts to persuade the ruler to join the Netherlands. Antoher option is to split it with France...
 * Spain updates its military and requests the ruler of Burgundian Algeria to join the Spainish Empire. The ruler is offered vast tracts of Spainish land and a small palace to live out his years.

 * The Vietnamese and their vassals continue to expand their military in preperation for the upcoming war.
 * Incan Empire; The Incan Empire launches an all out assault on the Swedish lines and break through after several disastorous attacks . Sweden is offered a deal in which Sweden gains the belwo territory from the Incan Empire and 5 tons of gold and silver. Incan_proposal..pngng that eventualy the Swedes will take out the Inca completley as did the Chinese so long ago, the Swedes are promised as many resources and gold and silver as well as a good portion of the Incan Empire iif they stop attacking the Inca.
 * It's not just Sweden attacking the Inca, China, Naples, and France are all attacking the Incas as well.
 * Check the algorythm. Your post is implausable and Sweden's coalition has trumped your empire. If you had turned up every turn and not sprouted implausability then the Empire might have survived. It's too late, the coalition will take everything.
 * Sweden rejects any offer by the Incan Empire.
 * Gananora is fully built, as a modern city in Italian style (modeled after Naples, Venice, and other European cities) with 'Public' Healthcare and schools (only the richest 20% of Ethiopian society receive these 'Public' things. Many citizens are promised Public Healthcare and Public Schools if they settle new lands South of Ethiopia. The program is a success, and Ethiopia's southern border expands 1000 km south (though the immigrants will still have to wait for those things).
 * ok...Public healthcare, public schooling and many governement social security programs were made because of the Industrial REvolution, Etheopia's not even close to that! It was beond peoples wildest dreams to have fre schools and medical expenses, now you're just pushing the limits of plausibility! \i wil post the same thing on the talk page
 * France asks Egypt an alliance to join its project to a final war against the Mamluks. In new Songhay, the prince-duke Robert invades the main cities and starts to recruit militias and set free slaves. In the incan empire, the mainly schitimittist and christian troops invade the southern Patagonia and strt to sign alliances with local tribes. Haiti is expanded 2300 sqkm. As descendant of the king of Burgundy, the king Jean III offers a deal to Spain: The french will recognise the spanish conquest of the burgundian Algeria if Spain supports the french claimings on the throne of Flanders and its war against New Songhay. France also will give technologies and weapons to Spain.
 * Naples continues its war against the Incas, attacking the many Incan cities. The primitive south Americans are no match for the Europeans, yet the Neapolitans are demoralized and are unable to fight as well as they would otherwise.
 * Inca Diplomacy: The Inca beg for the nations of the world to stop invading them asking China and other nations to remember the Inca's aid in the war against the agressive Hathawady, in which China itself was invaded and asked for the Inca's help, and that France and Naples were both on China's side during the Hathawady-Chinese Coalition War (i cant remember the actual name of that war), and that sicne they were on CHina's side, they were on the Inca's side as well.
 * Naples has never fought on the side of the Incan Empire in any war. They demand territory, at least the size of OTL Ecuador, to create a Christian land within South America.
 * France asks the Inca government to give it the eastern coast (not all of it, just a half or quarter in the south) and recognise its rights on Terre de Feu and Malouinas. If the Inca Empire does it, France and its vassals will abandond their intentions to going to war and will be friend and allies (economical and military) of the Inca Empire and successors.
 * [[File:Division_of_inca.png|thumb|left|108px|division of inca as set forth by the incan empire red=naples
 * IncaDivision2.png Neapolitans send their own plan for the division of the Empire, which was agreed upon by Sweden and China as well:
 * Incan Diplomacy: Seeing that the Inca will still be alive, millions of Incan soldiers, civillians and ordinary people take nothing but there most prized possessions and migrate to the reaminder of the Incan Empire. As much gold and silver as possible is taken to the Inca remainder, or about 78% of all of the gold and silver thanks to huge casts pulled by lamas and horses. The Inca grudgingly agree to the border offer but agree that at least the Inca still exist. 89% of all the Incan People moved to the remainder of the the free Incan Empire while the rest are heald prisoner by the Europeans. The Incan Emperor asks that the remaining 11% of the people be able to migrate to the remaining piece of the Incan Empire. When the Inca people reach there newhome, they begin to vigorously move into the uninhabited woods and jungles surrounding the Incan State, expanding the Empire to the west and north, as the free state that is all that remains of the once great empire is to small, forcing the people to expand into the surrounding jungles and forests. Angry a the Emperor and the Incan gods for having them being colonated twice, the emperor is killed and the Incan Republic procliamed from the new Incan capital of Quito, and the old religous order is destroyed with Orthodox Chistianity being embraced as the new Incan Reilgion.
 * By the Inca people leaving, do you mean all people who dwelt in those lands, or only ethnic Incas?
 * There is a sudden change in Venetian foriegn policy, the Doge looses power to his growing rival the Capo of the Venetian Merchant guild. There is no change of governance but the Capo essentially takes control. The Capo sends a public note of apology to the Vietnamese telling them that "the Doge lives in the past, being 40 years of age he still remembers the conflicts of times past." but also adds "However your insults to our people will not be forgotten should you try anything against the central wishes of Venice." He also attempts to calm the Venetian aggression towards the Vietnamese and instead manages to redirect it at several other primitive eastern nations. The Capo upgrades the military continuing up the Doges improvements with a new rifle for the Infantry called the Lungo Rifle, it is highly accurate at ranges of 50m however trails off afterwards. There are 4 Arsenals built in the crusader states, while small they hugely improve the economy. Then expands the colony of Nouvo Venetia by 2000 sq km with an influx of people.
 * The Natchez raise an army of the horsemen of the Plains, while the Charter Port Princes convert their trade barges into warships. The allies of the Royal Body are quickly gaining an upper hand over the feudal monarchy and their scions. However, the Grand Army of the Seminole once assembled will be one of the most fearsome military forces on the continent and will be utterly at the King's disposal. The Orthodox Christians declare independence completely and look to place themselves within Russia's sphere.
 * China ignores the cries for mercy, though they purposefully do not harm citizens during conquests. In December, the emperor has a change of heart. They request that the Incans are given Peru. Meanwhile, work on the first steam powered vehicle results in tragedy; an inventor attempts to create a 'horseless carriage'. The vehicle goes out of control and crashes into a house in a town near Beijing, where the inventor is from. The vehicle explodes on impact, killing the driver and everyone in the house. The area will later be named 'The Industrial Folly'. Success is reached on more practical use in Beijing though. Textile production increases by nearly 50% in the capital city.
 * The governor of New Hanthawady is pleased to reopen diplomacy with the Inca Empire. He offers special rights to the Incan Empire in the trade of spices in return for ability to settle the Chincha Islands, which are explored during the year, and the harbor at OTL Paita. Fighting reopens in Hanthawaddy as Hamthawaddy invades Pegu, with a large naval attack, retaking the city.
 * Sweden's Norweign Mountain Rangers launch a successful surprize attack on Quito. The Incan Emperor is captured in the attack and the remanents of the Incan Empire fall to the coalition's hands. The land north of the Swedish claim is split between New Hanthawaddy and Spain. The Incan Empire is no more. Meanwhile steam engines a being made in Estonia, Sweden and Norway. They ulitize coal at a frightening speed and smoke billows out. Charles banishes the steam engines from all regional capitals: Stockholm, Olso and Tallinn. Scotland upgrades its military. Netherlands propses to split Flanders between France and itself. Sweden requests to by Iceland and Finnmark from the Hanthawaddian colony yet again as those are traditionally Nordic lands. In return Hanthawaddy is promised half a ton of gold and half a ton of silver as well as unresistricted Mon use of Norweign ports. Asgard expands by 3050sqkm. Sweden constructs a new road system across the nation to allow faster travel. Sweden also offers Russia an alliance. Sweden offers to sell Hilo (the largest Hawaiian island) to China in return for a similar slab of land from the Chinese Andean claim on the Incas.
 * Sweden cant do that, the Inca excepted the Coalitions terms and thus the war ended, so can someone cross his post out? DeanSims 23:30, November 25, 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry DeanSims, but Spain and Hanthawaddy joined in at the last moment, and with their extra help that last area of the Incas fell as well. It looks like you'll have to get a new nation.  You could get Onguayal, that country just to the east of the Incas, and it comes with a vassal already (Manoa) or you could get that new country that formed in Brazil if you want to keep playing in South America.  If not, many African nations are open (although I would advise against playing as New Songhay or Sennar), and there are various other independent nations scattered around that you could also get.  Hopefully, you will be more active on your next nation so it will be stronger and with more allies.
 * Spain accepts most terms of the French deal and immediately send supplies to aid the French in New Songhay, but King Phillip refuses to support the French claim to Flanders as it will force Spain to go against Sweden. Spain gladly accepts its land in the Incan Empire and plans to send off a colony ship from Cadiz. Spain upgrades its military and improves some infrastructure.
