The roman response seems strangely slow, just summoning the Despot? The empire is cut off from its eastern holdings. Wasting months just to hear a bunch of excuses (what else can the guy say?) doesn't seem the smartest way. Aragon is in its death throes, If I remember correctly there was once...

Protectorate's aggression in Sierra Leone? WOW. Nobody can claim Bauer intervened out of goodness of his heart, but to frame it like that... what a deluded bunch. So a people deciding their own destiny (incentives offered to them notwhistanding) is against peace? it is, but that seems so...

It's Mezzogiorno. Sorry for the nitpick.

Doesn't seem very smart to develop so much near Austria. Emilia-Romagna seems quite risky. I guess the southern question for Italy is not being addressed as OTL :(

While it is understandable Hassan's desire to free muslims from the terrible coptic rule, this move on Cairo and beyond is really foolish: now he's threatening romans' interests, they HAVE to intervene. On a side note: The Ottomans are officialy of monster size, what next? Hormuz seems pretty...

ALready there, they settled some decades ago (I don't remember when exactly or where, near Cairo I believe).

But is It in the interest of the Romans to intervene? Cairo is under Coptic control so there's no damage to roman interests and trade with Ethiopians is mostly done by sea (and if the muslims cut off direct trade between Alexandria and Gonder the Romans would be the sole intermediaries through...

Wow, poor Ethiopia. It did seem a bit too big, too fast, but this is bad. They probably will lose Makuria and Darfur while they're gonna fight much harder for the Horn of Africa. Probably we'll see an end to this kingdoms system. Copts had it coming. Anything south of Cairo is gone.

What nuke? unless I misunderstood they won't use it. Three weeks is an awful amount of time, the protectorate troops will be well entrenched WITH a supporting populations. Britain has to do something, but it will be probably an embarassment.

Damn, I forgot. :(

The Quote from Julius Ceaser is ominous... you could be right :eek: A tribe switching alliegance provoking the (hopefully) only use of nukes in warfare?

Right. If I'm not mistaken they retained Lombardy and Veneto (and France to appease the Italians gave them the green light to take Latium and Rome).

With such a projection into the Balkans, will Russia manage to get all of central Asia like OTL? or its distraction will see some buffer states remaining?

I must confess this part about corporations playing spies is not for me. About the area... how are things in North Caucasus ( i don't recall any update on it, it was on the maps, but...). There is no play by the ottomans to take over the islamic countries under gernany's thumb? or are they...

Trouble is brewing on all sides for Rhomania and Demetrios seems the kind of guy which will act without any strategical view. This serbian situation wouldn't be that bad if there wasn't also the North African and Ottoman ones. The most worrying are the Persians (time to drop the label...

ehm, sorry but maybe that smily face next to that sentence is not really appropriate?

I wouldn't worry too much about this golden age thing: take Italian Renaissance, so good that Italy remained fractured and became a playground for other powers for almost three centuries?. Golden ages are basically myths. good to see the roman core doing so well, I still expect a more...

But on the long run it could be better, building on sounder foundations. The moon is a given, maybe it won't be abandoned like it did IOTL (the current talks about Mars make me laugh).

I think it's the second. I've never had any doubt reading it.

Hell yeah, I love this technology nuggets.
