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 it is now finished. Thus, this second game has been created. Welcome to Principia Moderni II.

Signups
All nations without names by them may be taken by new players immediately. Nations with normal names by them may not be taken by new players as they are already established main player nations, and cannot be played without permission or a revolt. Bolded names are international unions, with member states indented below. Tribal Names are italicized, and areas which are fragmented by being small states are underlined. Nations in civil disarray or collapsing nations have an attached note. If a player's name has a * beside it, it means that nation is a vassal/former colony that a player is controlling but is willing to let someone else play as if asked. Areas which ** are mod-controlled and players must ask permission to play them.

''' A famine starts on the Deccan plateau, affecting the Khandesh and southern Gujarat as well, as a result of successive crop failures. '''

''' An earthquake strikes Southern Peru killings hundreds. '''


 * Nippon-koku continues to expand more into 霊烏路 (Reiuzi) (Kamchatka). Mononobe Yukihito and Hatashi Kagekatsu sets out a new document that will give the Empress/Emperor some more power in the central government and both sign it. After enough convincing, Ukita Eizō and Ōtani Ikuhiro decide to also sign it, and later Satomi Katsutaka also signs it. The document is passed and now Empress Saigyō, and any future Empress/Emperor, will have some more power in the central government. By the twelth month, Satomi Katsutaka starts to fall badly ill. Meanwhile, 沖縄國 (Okinawa Kingdom) builds up its military. Also, 幽谷 (Kasodani) expands by 1500 sq km, 東海道 (Tōkaidō) expands by 1500 sq km and 屠自古 (Tojiko) expands by 800 sq km


 * Portugal, León and Castille prepare their militaries. Meanwhile, Queen Urraca II Carina dies, and her titles are split among her sons and grandsons respectively. The eldest, Duarte, receives the Portuguese and Scandinavan titles, and is crowned in Portugal as "By the Grace of God, Duarte II, King of Portugal, Galícia and Algarves, of either side of the sea in Africa and Lord of Guinea, Brasil and either side of the Rio da Prata." The second, Afonso, receives the Leonese titles, and is crowned "By the Grace of God, Alfonso XIII, King of León, Asturias, Seville and Córdoba." Fernando, only son of Nuno de Lara, Prince of Cantabria, receives the Castillian titles, and is crowned "By the Grace of God, Fernando VI, King of Castille, Murcia, Toledo and Jaén, of either side of the sea in Africa and Lord of Molina and Biscay". The kingdoms of León and Castille also become vassals of Portugal, but keep their monarchical titles, as Duarte has an Imperial title, though on Scandinavia. The titles of Canuto de Lara are divided among his sons. Dinis receives the Duchy of Guimarães, Nuno receives the County of Lara in Portugal and João receives the Lordship of Lara in Castille. Nuno VIII retires to the comital castle in Monção. Meanwhile, Pedro, youngest son of Urraca, becomes the Archbishop of Santiago de Compostela, as the former Archbishop dies. Meanwhile, Guiné expands 500 sq km, Santo Amaro expands 800 sq km, Loanda expands 700 sq km south in Benguela and Sofala expands 400 sq km. Meanwhile, Paraíba do Sul and São Sebastião expand 1700 sq km (the expansion of both is combined to form 1700 sq km), and in Rio da Prata. Paraná expands 1800 sq km along the Paraná. Meanwhile, a volcanic eruption, followed by a landslide, happens on the Açores.
 * China continues to improve its military as the Eastern Renaissance continues to expand China's economy. General education becomes more prevalent in China. Meanwhile, the scientific community becomes more prominent, as does the artisan community. Relations with Siam continue to improve. Trade with Korea continues as well.
 * The anti-Muslim trade laws benefit Hindu traders greatly, and huge conversion numbers are seen to Trimurt Hinduism. Bumbai grows again this year, and citizens from the newly conquered territories arrive, too. The propaganda campaign continues, and it sees students attending schools and speaking in Hindi. Industry develops, and ammunition begins to be made much quicker by using more people in more specialised roles. The Pandits also continue their attempts at converting Muslims in the country of Bengal, while the Vedic Hindu revival continues. The navy sees bigger and heavier armed ships added to it so that the country can protect its borders. More observations of Vishnuprium (OTL Saturn) are made, and its rings stay - with scientists beginning to see a connection. The NOC continues to establish closer relations with the Dutch, and pay more for certain pro-NOC members in the Royal Family, like the Crown Prince - influencing his view. The NOC continue to trade extensively with the Dutch, and the Dutch economy is almost completely reliant on NOC trade. On NOC advice, the Royal Family asks to join the Germanic Chruch, breaking any ties it had remaining with the Pope. The NOC also trades all its goods for food, to bring back to the Orissans and Khandeshi as a famine emerges. The King of the Netherlands begins to see his health deteriorate, and the NOC quickly backs the crown prince, who is pro-NOC and por-Orissan. The Eastern Renaissance continues, and Russian ideas reach the Orissans too. Machrajdhani grows 500 sq km, and so does Naya Mataram, expanding southward toward the native state on the island. The SOC begins to increase trading in the South Eastern areas, and begins to reassert its dominance in the area. The Raja quickly orders the taking of precautionary measures to insure the famine does not spread. Silos are built, and the large surplus is stored to insure the country does not follow the path of Khandesh. However, the Raja cannot bear to see future peoples of Orissa suffer, and begins to aid the Khandeshi by giving them emergency aid in the form of grain. A byproduct of this is that the Orissa expands its influence in these dark times as the aid makes the Orissans look good. The Raja also orders no cotton to be grown, and all fields are put to growing necessary food grains and crops.
 * Godavari sees more economic trade and small industrialisation which sees printing presses made occurring within its borders. The returning army helps train new recruits. All fields also grow food crops, and surpluses are either stored or given to Khandesh as aid.
 * Orissan Rajputs see the roads constructed bringing in traders. Schools completed have many students from rich families studying. They also grow food crops, hampering trade slightly.
 * Mataram's business companies grow, and revenue is pumped into the education of noble children along with the economy. Army is made better, and the country gears up for war. Many schools are built and see students for the first time. The SOC begins to dominate many areas of trading with Negara Daha, and many Matarami traders take advantage of this fact, and supply the country with Matarami and Orissan goods. The country is weak, and trading with the SOC is helping the country's economy (Negara Daha) to grow once more.
 * Burgundy: Asks Portugal, Venice, France and others to grant them them a port to administer the colonies fully. The military is built up and the colonies expand.
 * Scandinavia expands its military and economy. Nya Sverige expands 3100 sq km. Eriksmark expands 1000 sq km, 500 sq km in each direction along the bay. Ny Norg Stad continues its busy port duties and its naval base in the harbor is expanded. Nya Södra Skottlanders continue expanding into the island of Sumatra. Afrika Skandinaviska expands into the disorderly territory north to meet up with Nya Milan. Construction of the Patriarch's palace/home in Lübeck continues. The SEIC continues negotiations in Bengal, and the Sultan caves and agrees to the client treaty effective 1631. News reaches the Riksdag and they appoint Niall Murdock as Viceroy of India, to the disappointment of the Nyborgs. The Viceroy of Nya Skandinavia diverts colonial funds to provide relief to damaged areas and to commence reconstruction. Using the earthquake as an excuse to show that his puppet leaders in Aymara and the rump Inca state are inadequate, he convinces the tribal leaders that annexation is the best way to go. Late in October, they succumb to Viceroy Nyborg's suggestions. The country mourns the loss of the most beloved leader since King Erik, Kejszarinna Karina. The Prince of Finland/Asturias Duarte, ruling with the regnal name Erik VI, is crowned in Stolkholm at the Palassen Skandinavia by the Patriarch of the Goths. He receives the title of Kejszar, the first male emperor of Scandinavia. It has been an eventful year in Scandinavia and Portugal-Leon.
 * The Mayan Empire expands the economy. Upper class children continue attending school. Flax crops continue to be grown, and linen continues to be produced in Mutul. The tobacco proves to be extremely marketable, and it is planted all over the country. Xaman and Haven expand 2000 km each.
 * After many successful years on the throne, Kaisarin Elisabeth dies in her sleep, the Reichstag appoints Duke of Nuremburg, Alexander Settin as Kaiser. The University of Munchen continues construction of the Joseph wing. Mattias Straubourgh develops the steam turbine and unveils it at the first ever National Engineering day. The New king continues the later Queen's education programme. Salzburg officially admits the Bavarian Monarchy as leige over Salzburg, Salzburg officially becomes a vassal. Bavaria changes its name officially to Reiches Großraum Bayern, or the Empire of Greater Bavaria. (Note: for some odd reason I could not post for days. The wiki page would constantly freeze on the loading editor page. It did it on all of my computers for two days, A brief recap on events is apprieciated. Also to Imp, I accept your proposal.Andr3w777 (talk) 03:07, March 4, 2013 (UTC)
 * So I'm not the only one encountering that problem. CrimsonAssassin (talk) 03:30, March 4, 2013 (UTC)
 * No, you're not the only one. I wonder what is wrong.
 * It's been fixed :P And no problem mate, I predict we'll probably be signing the deal in 1632/1633.
 * Thanks to new technologies developed overseas, Ethiopia produces an excess amount of food, which is immediately sent to Orissa as thanks for their aid in developing technology for the empire. The economy and military are expanded, and the coal shown to Ethiopia by Orissa help them to develop steam turbines for mining purposes. The colony of Borona is expanded by 500 km, and the colony of Warqama expanded by 500 km.
 * The Raja is pleasantly astonished with the Ethiopian generosity. He promises to continue to tell the Ethiopians about their progress in coal. The Raja also makes a mental note to help out the Ethiopians in the time of need.
 * Cyprus buys the colony of Nea Kyrenia back, and renames it Nea Pafos. All of the former colonisers are promptly resettled in the new Nea Pafos. Cyprus begins to expand its army and navy. All colonies are expanded: Nea Lefkosia by 600 sq km, Nea Larnaka by 400 sq km, Nea Lemesos by 300 sq km and Nea Pafos by 200 sq km. Ships continue taking former Romans that no longer want to stay in acquired territory back to ethnic Roman territory, or the Roman's colony on Madagascar. Cyprus also requests an alliance with the Mayan Empire.
 * Crete continues to expand its army and navy. Cretans also continue to leave for the 'exoteriki', the new colonies founded by Cyprus. Crete also requests an alliance with the Mayan Empire. 
 * France: Permits Burgundy to use a French Port to be able to communicate with its colonies. Wanting to expand, King Louis II orders the improvement of the French Army, and increasing to 100,000. (Can I make an army like that by this point?) This way, the Army may be able to successfully invade Normandy and Brittany and finally make them part of the French Kingdom. Speaks with Burgundy military commanders, about a possible joint invasion of the Breton-Normandy Grand Duchy, where Brittany will go to France, while Normandy will go to Burgundy. Both colonies expand north 500 sq km. The King asks Burgundy for a wife, to strengthen the ties between our two nations.
 * Yep.
 * Burgundy agrees on giving the Princess Anna II of Burgundy to the French Royal family and to Aid the French in their campaign.
 * Wettin Lands: All the Wettin sovereigns are very saddened to hear of the death of Empress Elisabeth, especially King Rupprecht, as he is quite closely related to her (either she is his cousin, or his aunt). Prince Leopold II decides to build an extension to his palace, funding it with raised taxes. As a result, more people join the Annist groups.
 * Apache: The Apachean economy is improved by marketplaces being built across the country.
 * Serbia: Serbia builds their military up. The Principality of Serbia sends an economic alliance with Venice, assuring that the Serbian Principality concentrate their financial support of Venice as a European monopoly. The idea is to ensure the trade in the Venetian seas. Serbia calls for peaceful subjugation of Montenegro, ensuring the protection as vassal.
 * This does not look likely (the part about Montenegro). It would be more likely if you tried to vassalize them first.
 * Okay, I'm sorry. I've edited.
 * Kingdom of Rome: Madagascar colonies expand by 1000 km squared each. Katniss turns 24 and Marcus turns 19. Queen Lea turns 38 and King Julius turns 41. Rome offers France a Royal Marriage with a French Prince. We sell Kameroon to Cyrpus/Cret/ArlineseGuy.
 * Venice declares war on the Malaccas. The huge naval fleet bursts out of Nuovo Brescia to attack the nation. Venice attempts to forces Malaccan allies out of the war by persuading them that their trading opportunities will remain the same. Croatia, Greece, Albania, Piedmont, Naples and the Republic of Three Sicilies all send troops into the conflict.
 * The Principality of Serbia sends an economic alliance with Venice, assuring that the Serbian Principality concentrate their financial support of Venice as a European monopoly. The idea is to ensure the trade in the Venetian seas.
 * China, pledging to protect Malacca, threatens war if the Venetian/Malaccan war is not called off immediately.
 * Korea sends its prodigy generals to a Chinese military academy to be up to date with the tactics of the age. Korea's military takes an interest in the use of gunpowder in basic rifles, cannons, and experimental grenades. Long range trading becomes possible with reverse engineering of Chinese trading ships. Korea also attempts to establish contacts with Chinese logging companies in order to secure resources for its experimentation ambitions. Korea wishes to expand its trade to Europe and seeks nations to do so.
 * The Manchurians expand their New Manchuria colony by 2000 sq km.
 * Brandenburg expands its military. Same colonials as last year.
 * Russian colonies expand by 2000 sq km each and linen production and military update boosts economy.
 * Russian colonies expand by 2000 sq km each and linen production and military update boosts economy.

1631
''' The Mount Vesuvius erupts near Naples. The eruption buries various villages, killing a few thousand people '''

'''Maori Warriors attack and destroy the Orissan colony. They manage to seize some weapons and other tools and thus North Island will be at a 25% colonization rate for the next 70 years. '''


 * But how is this possible? I have tactical superiority, and I can go to war with a few puny Maori tribe members. I would also have army men there too...

'''If the British had problems with them, then you'll definitely have problems with them. They had to sign a treaty with them. Read the Treaty of Waitangi.'''


 * Yeah, the Maoris are a very warlike culture, and with muskets, they are formidable. 


 * Oh, that makes sense. Well, the Brits may have signed a treaty, but I'm doing this the old fashioned way: war. They might be formidible, but I have trained armies. Not to say much more than a few 10,000s in terms of population.

Has the famine now been fixed?


 * There is one thing: i always base my disaster events on OTL events. According to Wikipedia, this famine will last until 1632.


 * Ok thanks.


 * Portugal, Castille and León's economies grow. Meanwhile, Fernando VI of Castille marries Isabel de la Cerda, sister of the Duke of Medinaceli. Meanwhile, São Tomé expands 600 sq km, and Sofala expands 600 sq km north, while Loanda expands 500 sq km south. Meanwhile, Guiné expands 500 sq km. Meanwhile, São Sebastião expands 1900 sq km north, while Paraná expands 1600 sq km along the Paraná.
 * Nippon-koku continues to expand more into 霊烏路 (Reiuzi) (Kamchatka). Satomi Katsutaka's illness gets worse and by the ninth month he dies. Empress Saigyō gives the title of shogun to Mononobe Yukihito, and the Mononobe Shogunate is established. Mononobe Yukihito appoints Hatashi Kagekatsu to Rōjū. Meanwhile, 沖縄國 (Okinawa Kingdom) builds up its military. Also, 幽谷 (Kasodani) expands by 1500 sq km, 東海道 (Tōkaidō) expands by 1500 sq km and 屠自古 (Tojiko) expands by 800 sq km.
 * The Manchurians expand their New Manchuria colony by 2000 sq km.
 * The Levantine Kingdom continues to develop its printing press, as well as the cotton industry. As the Greek alphabet becomes more common and decisive, a very early system of schooling begins to be enacted, in hopes of teaching everyone to read in Greek, Arabic and/or Syriac. Vassailisation of the Sultanate of Ternate begins as pieces of the economy are taken over. King Ephraim and Queen Urraca's first child, boldly named Sargon, is born. New Syria expands by 2300 square kilometres (northwards from the River of Hashem and westwards from Wahe Bari), Rihnad Mihyah by 500 and Nusantara 200. Rihnad Mihyah becomes very densely populated as many people go to look for money from the very lucrative sugar and cotton trades.
 * Kingdom of Rome: Madagascar colonies expand by 2000 km squared each. Katniss turns 25 and Marcus turns 20. Queen Lea turns 39 and King Julius turns 42. Rome offers France a Royal Marriage with a French Prince. Marcus's Wife a Portugese Noble Uraca gives birth to two daughters and they name them Alice and Rebecca, and this unites the bloodlines of Portugal and Rome. King Julius asks the King of Portugal if a celebration of the the event can take place. At the same time Queen Lea gives birth to a second son, and he is named Jacob. Princess Katniss is offered in arriage to the Crown Prince of the Levanite Kingdom.
 * Australian Aborigines: The tribal leaders of the Aboriginal groups of Australia are invited to a tribal gathering in the lands of the Pitjantjatjara. The majority of the tribal leaders decide to attend the meeting, which is held in the lands of the Pitjantjatjara, the largest Aboriginal group of Australia. The colonists of the former colony of Von Bismark, who were assimilated into the Aboriginal group of Watjarri, are presented to the gathering. They tell of the mighty technological prowess of the nations to the north, showing weaponry and armour recovered from the colony. This includes a number of muskets, a singular cannon recovered from one of the ships used to transport the colonists to the continent, and steel plate armour from a number of the guard who protected the colonists. A troop of horses are also presented before the gathering, which the colonists have been breeding since their integration into the Watjarri. The colonists warn that the expansionist aims of the nations to the north could lead to the persecution and extermination of the Aboriginal people. The leader of the Pitjantjatjara tribe, Allunga, stands up and states that if the Aborigine way of life is to continue, then the intertribal warfare of the past, and by extension tribal divisions, must come to an end. He calls for the creation of a union of the Aborigine people. This union shall be led by a forum of all the Aborigine tribal leaders, who shall elect one of their own, to act as the Karmai, or head of the union. The gathering votes unanimously for the creation of this union in light of the evidence presented to them. As a result the Koori Union, literally translated as the Aboriginie Union, is formed. The forum immediately votes Allunga into the position of Karmai. Since only 80% of the tribal groups of Australia were in attendance of this gathering, 20% of Aboriginie tribal groups remain outside of the union, forming pockets of resistance spread out across the continent.


 * You cannot centralize like that immediately. It will take decades, a century even.
 * So...let me get this straight. Elders of the Pitjantjara people somehow get a message from central Australia to "the majority" of the tribes of Australia. Those groups then send a leader thousands of kilometres away to the Pitjantjara lands, in central Australia. Once there, they manage to have quite a complicated discussion, despite speaking 350-750 different languages. That is the equivalent of saying that in the year 100BC, a meeting for all world leaders was to take place in the Congo, and that the majority of leaders from Europe, Asia, Africa and America attended and discussed global issues. In my opinion, it is completely impossible. I think regional confederations could occur, especially around the old Von Bismark settlement, but otherwise...Callumthered (talk) 06:03, March 5, 2013 (UTC)
 * Brandenburg does the same as last year.
 * Eire (Sorry for absence): Forgets about Wales. Builds up military. A boat from Eire and a boat from an unknown area collide.
 * Reiches Großraum Bayern continues to improve education, extending it now from the wealthy toward the middle class. Emperor Settin orders the modernization of the recently vassalized Salzburg to bring it to par with Bavaria proper. The Bavarian Bankgruupe expand into the Netherlands as well as Orissa. Stauburough continues steam turbine testing. Science booms in Munchen as many new idea are being formed including a beleif that the natural world operates under a set of physical laws instead of the whims of a distant creator.
 * Ethiopia expanded south of its borders by 10,000 km into the unsettle lands, with priests and bishops preaching to any natives they encounter along the way. Additional technological advancements made in Orissa are made, and brought to Ethiopia to aid in the expansion of the empire.
 * Instead of attacking Ukraine, the best option is put out to be Sibir, but pesky Smolensk tends to be a disturbance...it's annoying, and Novgorod wants a greater border with Minsk...nothing the Spetsnaz can't handle. The Russian Tsar already lays claim to all Russian thrones by virtue of the successor state to the Russian Federation...all we need is for the current royal family, that bunch of rebellious usurpers not related to the Rurikids at all to die... men that were put in their positions by the invading forces, because they swore loyalty...not bad...but assasins are sent into the capital to kill the royal family...at any cost...so that Russia can bring order to the chaos...(all right, how do I find out if I succeed...I know it's not RNG but... is it just plausibility?) Meanwhile, the military gets ready for all-out war ... the economy experiences a boom as well as a population boost. A new census shows a population just shy of 12 million residents of Russia and her colonies ... the colony of Canada expands 4000 sq km.
 * The Mayan Empire expands the military. Upper class children continue attending school. Flax and tobacco crops continue to be grown, and linen continues to be produced in Mutul.  Xaman and Haven expand 2000 km each. The alliance offers from Cyprus and Crete are accepted.
 * Rajputana expands the Aphrika colony by 500 km. Infrastructure is built up in the northern less developed areas of the nation.
 * Bundela increases the size of its military and continues to incorporate elements of its economy with that of Rajputana.
 * Burgundy: Military is built up and colonies expand :Neu Antwerp 750 sq km, Brasilea 750 sq km and Guiane 500 sq km through the port provided by the French, to administer the kingdom's colonies. Military is built up.
 * France: Thanks Burgundy for Anna II of Burgundy, who will be treated well as Queen of France. This guarantees the family link between our two families. The two are to be married by the summer, and invites allies to come to the Royal Wedding. Both Fort Moreau and Fort Ouest-Bout expand 500 sq km each north. The Army continues growing towards the goal of 100,000, with many signing up being promised better wages, and proper equipment training, relying on professionals rather than conscripts. With the first Grenades having been tested out on a test field near Paris, the Division de Grenadiers, which utlizes the grenades developed for combat, is formed as a division within the French Army.
 * Scandinavia expands its military and economy. Nya Sverige expands 3100 sq km. Eriksmark expands 1000 sq km, 500 sq km in each direction along the bay. Ny Norg Stad continues its busy port duties and its naval base in the harbor is expanded. Nya Södra Skottlanders continue expanding into the island of Sumatra. Afrika Skandinaviska expands into the disorderly territory north to meet up with Nya Milan. Construction of the Patriarch's palace/home in Lübeck continues. Reconstruction of the southern areas of mainland Nya Skandinavia continues and integration of the  lands of its former vassals continues, though slowed by the earthquake. The Chancellor asks Venice again to call off its invasion, since China has made it clear that it will defend Malacca. The new Kejszar, Erik VI, goes on a state visit to Nye Norge - the first time a monarch has visited the colonies in Scandinavian history. He also travels to his other colony to the north of Nye Norge, Antilia. He is especially impressed by Ny Norg Stad, the model colonial city and most important port in Antillia.
 * Wettin Lands: Militaries are built up. The university in Kassel, Hesse is due to open next year.
 * Serbia: Militaries are built up. Serbia decides to have an imperial ambition. With this, the Principality became the Holy Orthodox Empire, with a czar as governor. Given the diplomatic letters sent to Venice and unanswered, Serbia decides to send to Scandinavia a diplomatic letter economic between the two countries and to Russia a diplomatic letter in view of a future alliance. They built an Orthodox church in Montenegro. It is there to be crowned Tsar, as Holy Orthodox Emperor.
 * Hey, not so fast. You will probably still need some more years before vassalizing them.
 * Sorry. I've edited.
 * Russia accepts alliance offer!
 * Cyprus sends aid to Venice and Naples following the unfortunate Mt. Vesuvius eruption. Cyprus also expands Nea Lefkosia, Nea Larnaka, Nea Lemesos and Nea Pafos by 500 sq km each.
 * Venice continues to attack Malacca with the powerful Venetian navy cutting the Malaccan army in two. Venice accepts the economic alliance with Serbia. Venice also ignores the Chinese threat of attack. Venice rebuilds destroyed areas after the Vesuvius eruption with some villages and towns relocated away from the volcano. Nuovo Treviso expands by 4100 sq km in Cuba.
 * An army from the conquered areas is raised to balance out the population to army ratio to equal the remainder of the kingdom. Industry develops, and ammunition begins to be made much quicker by using more people in more specialised roles. The Pandits also continue their attempts at converting Muslims in the country of Bengal, while the Vedic Hindu revival continues. The navy sees bigger and heavier armed ships added to it so that the country can protect its borders. The King of the Netherlands dies this year and as the Crown Prince comes to power as the new king, he signs a protective treaty which would make the Netherlands a client state of Orissa. The NOC becomes the naval defense power in the region, helping to protect the Dutch trading interests as well as continue trading with other nations in the region. The Eastern Renaissance continues, and experiments using coal to build up steam and power machines is conducted. All these experiments are very rudimentary and no results have been established yet. The SOC continues to increase trading in the South Eastern areas, and continues to vassalise Negara Daha. The Raja continues orders the taking of precautionary measures to insure the famine does not spread. Silos are built, and the large surplus harvested and the grain coming into Orissa is stored to ensure the country does not follow the path of Khandesh. The army begins to move into Khandesh, distributing grain to the starving populace. A Regiment also moves onto the Royal Palace, and arrests the Raja - stating he has not done enough for his people. The Khandeshi army do not fight back as they are starving too, and are given food by the Orissans. The country has almost completely been subjegated. Only food crops are grown this year again, and food is imported. Naya Mataram grows 500 km, expanding southward toward the native state on the island. The Raja, furious at the Maori, orders their island to be invaded using force. He hopes to conquer the whole island in one go and subjegate its people. Bihar also grows more crops, and continues to build roads. The Rajkumari is staying in the kingodm and gives the order to begin Orissanisation policies, i e, to put Hindi up as the main language in schools for the rich and begins anti-Muslim laws in the country too.
 * Godavari sees more economic trade and small industrialisation which sees printing presses made occurring within its borders. The returning army helps train new recruits. All fields also grow food crops, and surpluses are either stored or given to Khandesh as aid. Its sends aid against Maori.
 * Orissan Rajputs see the roads constructed bringing in traders. Schools completed have many students from rich families studying. They also grow food crops, hampering trade slightly. It sends aid against the Maori.
 * Mataram's business companies grow, and revenue is pumped into the education of noble children along with the economy. Army is made better, and the country gears up for war. Many schools are built and see students for the first time. The SOC begins to dominate many areas of trading with Negara Daha, and many Matarami traders take advantage of this fact, and supply the country with Matarami and Orissan goods. The country is weak, and trading with the SOC is helping the country's economy (Negara Daha) to grow once more. It sends aid against the Maori.
 * The Dutch sign an alliance with the Orissans along with a clientage treaty in return for exclusive trading offers and naval protection. One of their first actions is to lower taxation on Orissan goods, and to get the Bank of Amsterdam back to its former power. The country also begins to build churches of the Germanic Church in the south. Trading begins to grow again, as the Dutch are natural traders. They send some men against the Maori too, to help get its army back in shape.
 * ​Russia asks to buy your colony in the Gulf of Mexico...you can join in trade pact with Russia.
 * The Dutch will see. They are unsure as of now.
 * Your vassalization of the Netherlands was struck out because it's horribly implausible.
 * No it's not because I did not vassalise them - I made them my puppets. And I only see you objecting to no other mods, so I do not think it is implausible (I spent 15 years in this) because if this is implausible - then the puppetisation of the Incas sure as hell is.
 * The Kingdom of Lithuania focuses on building a centralized power base in Vilnius. Antanas Jagiellon is crowned King Antanas I. An alliance offer is sent to Novgorod and Scandinavia.
 * Granada still exists. You can't switch nations unless your former one has been destroyed.
 * There is no rule that says "You can't switch nations unless your former one has been destroyed." on the rule page, just saying. Willster22 (User talk:Willster22) 21:09, March 5, 2013 (UTC)
 * China declares war on Venice for their attack on Malacca. The massive, powerful Chinese navy blockades major cities in Malacca to defend against Venetian attack. The nation of Siam, already a major trading partner with China, becomes a vassal of China due to their fear of being invaded by European powers. China announces that any nations helping Venice in taking Malacca over will have their trade with China cease immediately. The economy in China continues to expand as general education reforms continue.
 * Kingdom of Mali: A man named Mudhimi, declares himself King of Mali. After months of struggle he deposes the previous ruler and becomes the rightful King of Mali. With this his goal is to reunite the Empire of Mali, beginning with finding its way to the coast.
 * Apache: Ekta has returned from his isolation and is horrified by his grandson's decisions and his seizure of power from the Elder Council. Ekta goes and talks to Govind but at the end of the conversation Ekta is arrested but soon freed. Ekta amasses an army to take back the nation for the tribes. Govind continues to equip his men with modern weapons and armor. Govind's force 1100 light infantry, 300 heavy infantry, 200 musketeers, 400 archers, 250 light cavalry, 50 heavy cavalry and 300 mounted archers. Ekta's force: 200 light infantry, 50 heavy infantry, 0 musketeers, 275 archers, 100 light cavalry, 20 heavy cavalry and 350 experienced mounted archers.
 * Korea maintains it cannot sufficiently assist in China's war against Venice, nor does it wish to get involved. It maintains its trade alliance with China, and holds Venice in a neutral light in spite of the war, and maintains that it does not hold the same conquest interests as China but does not wish its partnership with China to be misinterpreted as holding their interests, beliefs or passions. Korea explores possibilities of island colonization in the Pacific and Indian Ocean, and maintains its wish to start trade with European countries.

''' ​The Maori, who are firece warriors (and cannibals) unite their tribes to fight off the Orissan oppressors. Should the Orissans attack, the Maori get +20 points for their military to show their valor and courage in combat. '''

Then I should get +20 for being a flipping nation and not a bunch of tribes whose combined population would be less than my army size!!

'''This sounds a bit mod-targeted to me. The Maori never united their tribes in real life to fight off the British, so why are they doing it here? And the Maori were already showing off their valor and courage in battle to begin with. This doesn't make any sense. ~Viva'''

''' Wales vassalizes the kingdom of Lincoln. The Welsh continue to place the teaching of Welsh above the teaching of English, and subtly encourage their English subjects to teach their children Welsh. '''

'''Yup, they just vassalize all of England in one year, really plausible. ஆஸ், I wear your Grandads clothes (talk) 20:13, March 6, 2013 (UTC)'''

Really.

Well, except what Scandinavia owns.

Makes more sence :)
 * The Mononobe Shogunate builds up the military and continues to expand more into 霊烏路 (Reiuzi) (Kamchatka). Meanwhile, 沖縄國 (Okinawa Kingdom) builds up its military. Also, 幽谷 (Kasodani) expands by 1500 sq km, 東海道 (Tōkaidō) expands by 1500 sq km and 屠自古 (Tojiko) expands by 800 sq km.
 * The Manchurians expand their New Manchuria colony by 2000 sq km.
 * Portugal, Castille and León prepare their militaries. Meanwhile, in León, Fernando, second son of Alfonso XIII, marries Antonia Álvarez de Toledo, only daughter of the Duke of Alba.in late 1632, the Duke dies, and Fernando inherits the duchy. Meanwhile, Santo Amaro expands 500 sq km, Guiné expands 500 sq km, Sofala expands 500 sq km, and in Brasil, São Sebastião expands 2300 sq km, and Paraná expands 1900 sq km along the Paraná.
 * Eire: Military and the Economy are improved.
 * Ethiopia expands another 10,000 km to the south, and expands its economy and military. The Ethiopian scientists in Orissa develop a new breed of seeds that can survive on less water (farmers have been altering seeds for centuries), and present them to the Orissan ruler as a gift and proof that his own scientists are making strides in teaching the Ethiopian scientists.
 * True that. The Orissans thank the Ethiopians very very much, and with their gift - coupled with better weather, the famine starts to end.
 * The Kingdom of Lithuania develops the economy and infrastructure. King Antanas I builds a palace in Vilnius as his place of power.
 * Apache: The United Tribal Army (UTA) has fought tirelessly to root out the Apachean Liberation Front (ALF) and both sides have only skirmished because Ekta does not dare attack a larger army, so moves about the countryside attacking outposts and has also earned the backing of the Shamanic Coalition. Govind has erectred a great cathedral in Ekta and has also recruited more musketeers and light infantry to win the civil war that only a monarchy could have brought. With this relevation Govind proclaims himself King of the Apache. Govind, 23, and Ekta, 55, are now enemies but are still family.
 * Scandinavia expands its military and economy. Nya Sverige expands 3100 sq km. Eriksmark expands 1000 sq km, 500 sq km in each direction along the bay. Ny Norg Stad continues its busy port duties and its naval base in the harbor is expanded. Nya Södra Skottlanders continue expanding into the island of Sumatra. Afrika Skandinaviska expands into the disorderly territory north to meet up with Nya Milan. Construction of the Patriarch's palace/home in Lübeck is finished, creating a marvelous structure that defines the city's look. Reconstruction of the southern areas of mainland Nya Skandinavia continues and integration of the  lands of its former vassals continues, though slowed by the earthquake. The Kejszar returns from Ny Norg Stad pleased with the status of the colonies. With the crisis in Southeast Asia intensifying after China's declaration of war on Venice, the Kejszar decides to not take a side citing China's threat to cut off trade with anyone who aids Venice.
 * Burgundy: The Council of Burgundy is founded centered in Besançon. While this, the military is built up, King Charles dies at 80 years of age, and his grandson, Pierre I of Burgundy takes the Crown of the Kingdom. through the port given by the French he begins arming a fleet for the Kingdom to Reach at meast 50 Modern ships by the next two years. The colonies expand, Neu Antwerp 750 sq km, Brasilea 750 sq km and Guiane 500 sq km. The French are asked when it is planned to invade Normandy and Brittany. The King immediately ahowa his interest on the Sciences and Philosophy and it's the first sovereign to establish Burgundian as one of the official languages (l'langue d'bourgogne?). Some Bavarian merchants form the Burgundian Bank set in Dijon, and begin spreading throughout the kingdom and to some regions of Eastern France. It's quite late, but Eastern Cuba and Eastern Hispaniola should either be Burgundian or Dutch because there were Milanese colonies over there bought. Same with the African colony. So why did you erase them and that was about 1580 before the Dutch uprising? So can I at least know what happened to these colonies??Sine dei gloriem (talk) 02:08, March 6, 2013 (UTC)
 * The Mayan Empire expands the economy. Upper class children continue attending school. Flax and tobacco crops continue to be grown, and linen continues to be produced in Mutul. Xaman and Haven expand 2100 km each.
 * The Spetsnaz is flawless in the massacre of the Smolenskian King's family. Since there is no heir to the throne, The Russian Tsar claims it, and, as a consequence, even if there is some resentment, many believe it to be a necessary evil to stop rampant anarchy that comes with regular (as in, unplanned) interregna...it also helped that he rode into town with about a small 20 000 strong armed force. There is a great celebration in Russia, as the Tsar now has one less villainous rebel state accepting of the one true Russian leadership. Plans to invade Sibir are made for next year and the military prepares by training more troops. Russia will come prepared for this war, wether people like it or not... The population booms with the economy and trade with Europe. Also, the colony of Novorossiya reaches a population of 200 000, and expands by 4100 sq km. The Russian economy would also benefit from trade with East Asia...and summer trade routes via the northern ocean of ice (i.e. the northeast passage) are set up, if the Chinese government so chooses...also, cheap (relatively) flintlocks (so cheap, they could possibly count as supplies for the war with Venice if China so chooses. It would weaken one of Russia's main competitors).
 * The Kingdom of Lithuania sends an alliance to Novgorod.
 * China accepts these deals.
 * Wettin Lands: The Ducal University (commonly known as Duke's) in Kassel, the Duchy of Hesse, is opened by King/Duke Rupprecht II. The university is welcomed by the academic community who feel that a university outside the Archbishopric of Magdeburg will keep lecture sizes down and give more people the opportunity to learn. The University of Magdeburg is given precedence over Duke's, meaning that the more talented students attend Magdeburg, while the less talented students attend Kassel. Professors are hired, and students arrive. The armies are also built up.
 * Serbia (Holy Orthodox Empire): Continued subjugation of Montenegro. Serbia sends request or an alliance to Lithuania. Increases its military up. Its economy expands around the Venetian influence, something that benefits them greatly. Next year it's expected for Serbia to mobilize its troops to conquer Bosnia.
 * How did you become the Holy Orthodox Empire?
 * I placed it in 1631. Action authoritarian of czar. Is only Serbia but other name, more "religious". Nothing special.
 * ​Cyprus continues to negotiate with Novogrod over the land in the Gulf of Mexico. Nea Lefkosia, Nea Lemesos and Nea Pafos expand, each by 500 sq km. Cyprus also expands its army and navy.
 * Crete continues to expand its army and navy.
 * The more modernized Venetian navy deals a devastating defeat to the Chinese. However, the Venetian armies are still slow to arrive in Nuovo Brescia and thus the planned invasion stalls. Nuovo Venexia expands by 4100 sq km.
 * China's navy is not outdated.
 * Korea commissions a navy to defend its trade interests. Mercenaries used during the period of infighting are hired to train a small army in addition to tactics learned in various military schools.
 * The Levantine Kingdom expands its colonies; New Syria grows by 1300 square kilometres, Rihnad Mihyah by 400 and Nusantara by 300. Education for Greek, Arabic and Aramaic continues to be enforced, and cotton and sugar industries grow. A new university begins to be built in Latakia, as well as another one on Aleppo.
 * More roads are constructed in former Bijapur, and Bumbai grows as more dockyards are built. Industry develops, and ammunition begins to be made much quicker by using more people in more specialised roles. The Pandits also continue their attempts at converting Muslims in the country of Bengal, while the Vedic Hindu revival continues. The navy sees bigger and heavier armed ships added to it so that the country can protect its borders. The NOC continues to trade with the various nations of Europe, and helps the Dutch modernise their navy. The Eastern Renaissance continues, and experiments using coal to build up steam and power machines gives a few results. Coal makes steam boil much faster than wood, and uses less of it at the same time. The SOC continues to increase trading in the South Eastern areas, and Negara Daha is vassalised this year. The country sees the attention of Mataram. The Raja's measures, and the growing of the seeds in certain drier areas given to them by the Ethiopians have helped Orissa get Khandesh out of the famine. Khandesh is completely subjugated this year and the Orissans pump in propaganda to make the Khandeshi believe that due to their actions, hundreds of thousands of people have been saved (which, TBH, is true). The nation does not object for now, as food flows back to the populace. Many roads begin to be constructed in the country to bring it up to spec with the rest of the road network. Some cotton crops are grown this year, with better harvests. Naya Mataram grows 1000 km, expanding southward toward the native state on the island. The war against the Maori is successful and the army takes the coastal regions of the island, fighting back the Maori. In Bihar, many schools open and roads are completed.
 * Godavari sees more economic trade and small industrialisation which sees printing presses made occurring within its borders. The returning army helps train new recruits. All fields also grow food crops, and surpluses are either stored or given to Khandesh as aid. It sends aid against Maori.
 * Orissan Rajputs see the roads constructed bringing in traders. Schools completed have many students from rich families studying. It sends aid against the Maori.
 * Mataram's business companies grow, and revenue is pumped into the education of noble children along with the economy. Army is made better, and the country gears up for war. Schooling begins to extend to the less rich. After Negara Daha is vassalised, many merchants move to the country to earn money. The government of the country comes under the influence of Mataram, rather than Orissa. It sends aid against the Maori.
 * The Bank of Amsterdam continues to open trading to other nations. The King offers the Bavarians a small slice of their coast which has been slightly troublesome to keep because it is more German. Germanic Church priests begins to convert people in the south, along with preaching unity of the federation as one. Trading begins to grow again, as the Dutch are natural traders. They send some men against the Maori too, to help get its army back in shape.
 * Bavaria accepts.
 * Russia would like to buy the Dutch Texan colony.
 * Brandenburg does the same as last year.

1633
Khafji expands into Arabia after it completes a four-year military campaign against the Bedouin tribes to the west of Khafji.

Sorry, what's Khafji?

'''That nation in between Kuwait and Arabian federation. See the named map for 1600.'''

'''Sudan expands to the east and west following the military success of their new sultan. He also succeeds in having Darfur becoming a vassal of Sudan. With Sudanese support, Darfur expands too.'''
 * The Mononobe Shogunate builds up the military and continues to expand more into 霊烏路 (Reiuzi) (Kamchatka). Meanwhile, 沖縄國 (Okinawa Kingdom) builds up its military. Also, 幽谷 (Kasodani) expands by 1500 sq km, 東海道 (Tōkaidō) expands by 1500 sq km and 屠自古 (Tojiko) expands by 800 sq km.
 * Eire: The Navy is worked on. A draft-type thing is set up. A ship of 37 sailing west for the New World to trade lands on OTL Killiniq island (which is very small), where nobody is. A few small villages are set up, and the area is claimed for Eire.
 * We have a colonization algorithm. I calculate your colonial year to be 1646.
 * I didn't know that.
 * Portugal, León and Castille prepare their militaries. Meanwhile, Santo Amaro expands 500 sq km, Guiné expands 500 sq km in Bissau, Sofala expands 500 sq km north, and in Brasil, Pará expands 1000 sq km along the Maranhão, and Espírito Santo expands 1600 sq km . Meanwhile, in Rio da Prata, Uruguay expands 1600 sq km along the homonymous river. Meanwhile, Joana de Barcelos gives birth to a girl, who is named Joana. Meanwhile, in Castille, Isabel de la Cerda gives birth to a boy, who is named Fadrique and who dies some days after his birth.
 * Ethiopia continues to expand 10,000 km to the south of the empire and expands its military and economy as well. The imperial scientists in Orissa continue to make great progress. Ethiopia also begins to expand its influence into Adal, by slowly bribing many officials to think better of the country.
 * France: Both Fort Moreau and Fort Ouest-Bout expand 500 sq km north. Louis II of France and Anna II of Burgundy both get married in the early spring in La Rochelle, where all are invited to come visit. Reports of the Queen's pregnancy are rumoured, but kept private until the next year. Meanwhile, in discussions with the military commanders, about a massive invasion of Brittany, with 20,000 soldiers at the frontline, and 25,000 as backup near the border. Discussions with Burgundy are being made, asking for their assistance in the war, and in return, they may hold Normandy as part of their domain. The Division de Grenadiers will see their first battles in this invasion.
 * The Dutch are willing to aid the French in return for a French promise not to expand into the Netherlands and a non-aggression pact. The Bank of Amsterdam would also like to open branches in France.
 * French Diplomacy: We accept the terms with the Dutch, though ask that this non-aggression pact does not affect relations with Burgundy.
 * Apache: The civil war still rages and King Govind has trained the Apachean Guard a die-hard military unit that would charge into a battery of cannons loaded with grape shot to serve their king. Apachean Guard # 350. Ekta has secured the far north of the nation and has bolstered his numbers and now even Catholics are joining his ranks the final battle of the civil war is about to begin.
 * Germany expands its military. The colonies expand at the usual rate. Neu Berlin by 3600 sq km and everything else by 200 sq km. Stuff goes on. We continue to exert influence on Vijayangar.
 * The Arabian Federation builds up its military and the federation helps improve the economies of its vassals (Maldives and Comchellak). One method to improve Comchellak's economy was expanding 8,100 sq km inland as another powerful merchant declares himself a Sheik of Comchellak making him the 24th Sheik of Comchellak. Sultan Akram wishing to stay in power for a third term declares another war against Wehali in an effort to expand the federation's Kupang colony. This war is welcomed by many spice merchants and military chiefs.
 * Russia declares war on Sibir. Russian troops are well, preparing for the fight, and are very eager to take back some fo the Urals' resources. The hopeful outcome of the war is that Russia can intimidate the Tatar state to get more arable land. Russian troops march into Siberian territory, making great gains, and decimating local troops, but now without a fight, as winter looms, Russians seemingly stop their advance because, well, it gets cold up north, and they retreat closer to supply lines. This allows the Siberians to take back some territory, and regroup. A new Russian vojvoda is put in place, and his main strategy is two steps forward (summer), one step back (during winter) to allow for supply lines to be constructed. this strategy serves him well, as it allows Russians to keep up morale that they are winning...badly, and give Siberians a false sense of hope to their advances. This hit hard then retreat and consolidate strategy gave Russian troops a push into 20% of their territory, before leaping back to only about 10%. Oh, and Novorossiya expands 4000 sq km-Lx (leave me a message) 02:00, March 7, 2013 (UTC)
 * Scandinavia expands its military and economy. Nye Norge expands 3100 sq km. Eriksmark expands 1000 sq km, 500 sq km in each direction along the bay. Ny Norg Stad continues its busy port duties and its naval base in the harbor is expanded. Nya Södra Skottlanders continue expanding into the island of Sumatra. Afrika Skandinaviska expands into the disorderly territory north to meet up with Nya Milan. The Viceroy of India, Niall Murdock, looks east to expand his holdings but not any time soon. The Kejszar stresses neutrality. Renovations begin in Gibraltar to the naval base and the fort.
 * Burgundy: The colony of Neu Antwerp expands 750 sq km and Brasilea expands 750 sq km while Guiane expands 500 sq km northwards. While this, the military is built up, and the French are said to delay for some time the invasion unless they are prepared for it, the Bank of Burgundy continues growing in Burgundy and Eastern France and Lorraine, and the Religious Reforms begin to Increase Religious Tolerance.
 * Reiches Großraum Bayern, Salzburg grows in immigrants as the new Emperor is fully affected. Troops and immigrants travel to the new enclave given by the Netherlands. The region is dubbed, Minderwertig Conclave. Ships begin construction as the newly commissioned Bavarian Navy begins consrtuction in its new port. The Emperor travels to the Netherlands in diplomatic entourage to thank the Netherlands and to declare an alliance between the two nations, along with a warning to any nations that Bavaria will protect Die Niederlande. Science continues to boom, steam turbines are now being used in a minor way to help extract earth minerals. Coal is now being mined near the city of Nuremburg. (Yes there is Coal, it was mined as early as the 16th century.)
 * Serbia (Holy Orthodox Empire): Continued subjugation of Montenegro. Serbia sends request for an alliance to Lithuania. Increases its military up. Serbia supports Russia morally (since it has no connection). Therefore, insists that when Russia ends its campaign would run a campaign both to seek mutual access between the two countries, to enhance the Serbian-Russian alliance. The Czar gives the order and start the Serbian invasion of Bosnia. The idea of an Holy Empire Orthodox more the Slavic nature, are the main causes for such expansion.
 * While Russian troops have no way of reaching Serbia, you are in the Range of Russian and NETA traders, thanks to hard work and in some part the trade pact with Europa tradegruupe. So, because of this, you are in the range of the Russian firearms market, and, since you are Orthodox, are valid for the Orthodox nations firearms discount act...so, may I interest you in extremely cheap, new or older flintlocks (used by Russian military)? (in other words, should you accept the offer, you get supplies aid in your war).

 * The Arabian Federation continues fighting against Wehali in an effort to expand the federation's Kupang colony. This war is welcomed by many spice merchants and military chiefs as the political system in the federation becomes increasingly dominated by the powerful merchant class as they lobby the Sheiks and Emirs to pursue pro-business policies. This corruption is made worse as the Sheiks and Emirs are themselves powerful businessmen and chair family-owned companies, and decide to pursue the pro-business policies to better themselves. This aristocratic, merchant class is the dominant class in the federation, followed by a merchant-land owning middle class, then a peasant class, and finally a slave class right at the bottom. While some peasants, middle class merchants and land owners begin to complain about the inequality of the power wielded by the aristocratic-merchant Sheiks, they generally stay quiet due to the federation's liberal views on faith, land ownership and business.

 * We will stop if you stop your alliance with Wales.
 * You are in no place to make demands. Don't disturb the sleeping lion.
 * Holds firm, but makes a counter offer. You can have your alliance, but we get Cornwall.
 * No matter. Your navy is puny, the massive Scandinavian navy can defend all shipping lanes and destroy you and your privateers. You don't want to go to war with us. You fail to realize that Cornwall will never join you willingly and you'd have to invade.
 * Holds firm.
 * Germany, an ally of both nations, offers to mediate a peace.
 * The NOC is also interested in peace as war would ruin their trading routes in the area.
 * Eire's Peace terms. You let us have Cornwall, and we stop attacking and give you a discount on stuff. (If anyone wants to know why we want Cornwall, it's because I don't want Wales to have all of England).
 * The NOC would support this as Scandinavia would already have dominance over Wales, the largest country in Britain.
 * Everyone, calm down first. Germany has interests, too. Proposition: Eire and Germany get influence over Cornwall, and we all leave Wales alone, because Scandinavia already has Skottland. Further expansion on the British islands will not be tolerated.
 * Eire : Sounds good.
 * Germany expands its military. Neu Berlin expands 3600 sq km. Von Bismarkk's Land, Vinland, Neu Mecklenburg, and Neu Prussen expand 200 sq km each. Germany is really bored, does some more astronomical and biological research, funds the arts and starts some new construction projects.

Asks Cyprus if Cyprus and Rome can unite in personal union with both being equal partners in this Union. The clause is that Rome may withdraw if it wishes. If Cyprus does not accept, then we offer it to France.
 * ​Rather than Venice, which I don't think has a Royal Family, go for Cyprus. You will help them get a large population base, and in return gain a bit of influence on their colonies.
 * Venice is a constitutional monarchy.
 * Scandinavia expands its military and economy. Nye Norge expands 3100 sq km. Eriksmark expands 1000 sq km, 500 sq km in each direction along the bay.

The APL is also called into revitalize their efforts in combating piracy.
 * This year, disaster strikes the nation. The Orissan Raja passes away in his sleep, after ruling for over 48 years. In the days before his death, he was noticeably frailer. A huge funeral is held in his name, and thousands pour over the streets of Bhubaneswar to to bid their Raja farewell. The eldest Rajkumari takes the throne, at the age of 39.

The SOC gains more profits by trading in Ventian colonies, and pumps the money into developing its dockyards in Bhubanaswar and Bumbai. In former Khandesh, the news of the Raja's death is taken less severely, yet the people are grateful for his role in saving its people. The area sees many new road projects and schools being built. Propaganda is pumped here too. Naya Mataram grows 1000 km, expanding southward toward the native state on the island. In New Zealand, many flock to the colony as the SOC begins to sell colonisation offers at cheaper prices, to send as many people as they can on the island. In Bihar, many schools open and roads are completed. As a new plague seems to spread, borders in the north are closed, and only travelling between Orissa and its vassals are allowed. The merchant ships entering will not be allowed to dock in port unless they have been cleared to (ie, no one on board is sick). Many think the plague is God's revenge on the people, but the growing enlightened minds begin to research on the subject, and find it is happening in dirty areas.

 * Wait, what civil disarray?
 * On the map, there was disarray.
 * But there was no event which says that the nation in question has fallen into civil disarray. Forgetting to add existing events is one thing. Adding nonexistent events is other.
 * But AP told me the country was in civil disarray, and it was on the map too - before my update of it. I'm just really confused...
 * For something to be here, it has to be here and in the map too. He most probably forgot about making the event. Anyway, until further notice, it is not in civil disarray.
 * There, I changed it.
 * Ethiopia continues to work with the Nubian kingdom, and expand its influence into the nation. Ethiopia expands it borders by 5,000 km to the south, and the borders of Yäwah Wäjäb 500 km inland, and Wärqama's borders by 400 km along the coasts. The military and economy are developed further.
 * Poland: A new King takes the throne after the last one dies. His name is Antoniuz Kalinowski.

 * Wettin Lands: The Wettin Catholic Mission to Australis lands safely in Australis, near the former location of Brandenburg's  Bismark's Land colony. The priests make contact with the natives and begin their first challenge - trying to understand them. Luckily, many of the half-indigenous offspring of the Brandenburger colonists still speak German, and so communication is easier. A few Aborigines are converted. Back in Europe, King Rupprecht II of Saxony orders the construction of "Highways" like the ancient Romans had, which are to stretch the entire length and breadth of the Wettin domains. The Prince of Anhalt and the Archbishop of Magdeburg agree, and work begins.
 * The Levantine Kingdom agrees to marry Sargon to the princess of the Roman Kingdom. New Syria spreads northwards and into the Orange River by 2400 square kilometres, Rihnad Mihyah by 400 and Nusantara by 200. Education programs are stopped for the year in order to prevent any spread of "the foul plague". Troops are prepared to be sent to re-establish pro-Levantine government in Persia. The economy keeps developing with the cotton and sugar industries growing. Ephraim of the Levant has a third child, who he names John. Businesses continue to be supported by King Ephraim.
 * Are you sure? she is 25 years older than him, according to your posts.
 * Russian Troops succesfuly lay siege to the Sibirian capital city. They have captured the Tatar border, and do not want to waste more resources than is necessary. During the siege, the Sibir Khan sues for peace. Russians give him peace for the territory that I will put on the map in 1640. Meanwhile, an emmissary is sent to the Tatar state to threaten them into an alliance with grain tribute. His return is well awaited. Colony of Kanada grows 4000 sq km.
 * Luxembourg expands its military.
 * Serbia (Holy Orthodox Empire): Serbia continued the invasion in Bosnia. Serbia continues subjugating Montenegro to be vassal.

Thanks to the drought, the size of the Mayan trading fleet increased, expanding the economy and allowing for increased trade with the European colonies. Linen is produced in Mutul. Xaman and Haven expand 2100 km.
 * The Manchurians expand their New Manchuria colony by 2000 sq km.
 * The Arabian Federation expands its economy to recover from the war with Wehali as more spices come into the federation's markets. Traders in the East Indies also manage to get their hands on seeds for some spices and they start trying to grow their own private plantations of them in Comchellak, Zanj islands, Maldives and Arabia. Trade increases in India and this helps to spurn on the economic growth in the federation. This year's Sultan elections sees Sultan Akram, Sheik of Bahrain loose out on getting his third term as Sultan. Emir Omar, the Emir of Muscat instead returns to power as he is re-declared to be Sultan for his third term. This is due mainly to Emir Omar's policies to curb the spread of the plague; however ultimately these policies only slow it down and it wrecks havoc on the federation.
