    Monarchy Restored in Brazil

    There are ways (even though unlikely ways) of accomplishing a monarchical restoration in the 1910’s. I’d say there are two basic requirements to make it work. The first one is a longer and more unstable Hermes da Fonseca presidency, in which the oligarchic pact is not restored towards the end of...

    Crusader Kings II - Paradox Entertainement (02/12)

    If you like Game of Thrones, try The Seven Kingdoms (TSK). It’s set during the Andal invasions and it’s focused on Westeros, which is a lot bigger and detailed than in the other mod. Sadly, key ASOIAF systems like the Maesters are missing, but it runs better in exchange.

    I’ll finally be able to play as my family lol. Hopefully São Paulo is detailed enough in number of provinces to allow that. I don’t understand one thing though. Does this take place during the main After the End mod? If so, shouldn’t Brazil be unified under the Braganzas?

    Crusader Kings II - Paradox Entertainement (02/12)

    I think it depends on your Game Rules. IIRC only Persia, Byzantium and the HRE are enabled by default.

    Crusader Kings II - Paradox Entertainement (02/12)

    This reminds me that I have to continue my Byzantine game. Too bad I had Vassal Limit turned on at the start. I didn’t intend to become emperor, it kinda just happened. Now I’m stuck.

    Pedro II dies early

    The war would likely end in 1868, with the occupation of Asunción. I believe it was the Emperor who pressed for the unconditional surrender of Paraguay and the capture of Solano López, which prolonged the conflict until 1870 and saw some of the worst atrocities of that war. Now, I very much...

    Indeed. As I noted to Ian, AH.com has been building a solid network of historians and researchers for the past two decades. This isn’t an academic social network like Research Gate and Academia, but still offers ways of presenting this community with scholarly opportunities that they would...

    Friendly reminder that applications are due today. I do urge you to apply, if you're unsure. There is a very decent chance of approval, as the first round of applications selected only 27 foreign candidates or so, while we desire to have a complete roster at 50 foreign participants if possible...

    Don’t worry about that. Some lectures will be held in English, while those in Portuguese will have real time translation to English. São Paulo itself is a fairly tourist-friendly city too. Sign up and find out! (it’s real x'D)
