French allies conquer the great city of Tombouctou in 1529. The French allied themselves with the Manding’s great enemy, the ever growing Songhai, and were finally able to take the empire.The French conquerors executed both claimants to the throne, those who claimed to be Mansa Mahmud II and III. The French conquerors stayed, and carved up viceroyalties within the empire. The Songhai were kept at bay as quasi allies, for the time being. The leader of the expedition, Henri-Philippe du Penn-ar-Bed, returned with the Manding crown and vast treasures of gold and copper and such, and Charles IX humbly accepted the title “Emperor of Mauretania,” declaring his realm to be an empire, in the same sorts the English had. He also declared himself equal to the Holy Roman Emperor in precedence, and declared himself to be an Emperor. The Dauphin Philippe was also created "Prince du Timbouctou." Many peasants went to Africa upon du Penn-ar-Bed’s return to Tombouctou. Missions were set up to convert the pagans, and the King himself ordered the Muslims to be treated as if they were Saved Peoples, and to be fined for not attending Mass.

1529: The Wettinite and Eastern Orthodox churches agree to a "eucharistic union", with Wettinism recognized as the "true western rite" and Wettin himself consecrated "Patriarch of Mainz and Metropolitan of the west." In return, Wettin agrees to remove the philioque from the German mass, reject the supremacy of any patriarch, including the Bishop of Rome, over ecumenical church councils, as well as acknowledging the "first among equals" status of the patriarch of Constantinople and gradually introducing some eastern practices into the German church, at his discretion.

April: Ivan meets with his father and informs him that he is renouncing his claim to the Russian Throne. He feels he can not fulfill his vows of Knighthood while Tsar. Vikenti is now the heir to the Throne, a role that is more to his personality and that Dmitriy had been grooming him for in the event that something happened to his brother.

August: Tsarina Solomonia Yuryevna Saburova is throne from her horse while out riding, she dies instantly. Dmitriy goes into a state of shock and deep depression. Due to his fathers depression, Vikenti takes over the day-to-day business of the Country.

Some of the Boyars see this as an opportunity to regain some power and form a group to oppose the Tsar and his son. These Boyars are mostly Traditionalist Orthodox and have support of many of the Traditionalist Clergy.
