Okay, here's a proposal for helping keep our timeline on track from here on.

Where possible, for the next few centuries, identify an expert on the Age of Exploration era nation/culture that you are controlling, list them here, and ask them to review your events to improve their plausibility/style for the times.

If you yourself are an acknowledged expert on them, you are excused.

Some possible (but not the only) examples of suggested buddies:

Abdul Hadi Pasha - Ottomans
Leo Caesius - Persia/Mesopotamia (I'm going to contact him for my White Sheep Turkomen)
Doctor What - Native Americans (particularly West Coast :))
Hendryk - China
Faeelin - France

For Spain: Inaki. No question. Same goes for Navarre.
I think I can handle my German possessions and the Hospitalers.
Anyone know an expert on Greeks/Greek Orthodoxy? Could be important for Rhodes.

Thought he just got temporarily kicked for that one.

then there was a message mentioning how Midgard had said he was leaving because everyone echoes Ian's words or toe the line (or somethign like that)
