  1. The Visconti Victorious 2.0

    Why would contact be slower?

  2. Alamgirnama: A Mughal Timeline

    I would make the argument that Tibet’s strategic utility comes in the form of being a superior defensive position for any empire who originates in an area adjacent to it rather than, as you would suggest, being a staging ground for invasions. Not until quite recently, give or take twenty or...

  3. Hadrian's Consolidation - reboot

    China’s isolationism, at least the iteration of it which seems to colour the discussion here, was a mixture of xenophobia and proto-nationalism that came as a result of the Mongol domination. Any and all archaeological evidence of foreign goods and coinage in China before the Yuan/Ming/Qing...

  4. Hadrian's Consolidation - reboot

    Just out of curiosity, I was wondering if you have a source for that.

  5. Hadrian's Consolidation - reboot

    Hecatee's recent post has revealed a somewhat subtle detail about the implementation of the examination system in Rome, the empire is slowly shifting into a proper stratocracy. Education, as an abstracted concept, is about enhancing the particular skills of those who pass through its system...

  6. The Horse and The Jaguar

    Maybe do this through a PM? Most users here don't see your post as "bumping for reboot" but as "annoying necro raising false hope". Thanks for the interest though.

  7. Hadrian's Consolidation - reboot

    The contention of the Wikipedia article you linked in your post is that the Song’s failure to fully industrialise was due to the lack of a “middle class” which meant a lack of potential customers for civilian consumer goods rather than inter-state competition.

  8. Hadrian's Consolidation - reboot

    I'm a mature adult and didn't giggle at that sentence.

  9. Hadrian's Consolidation - reboot

    If Greek is not removed from its position of lingua franca in the eastern portion of the empire, the survival of the Roman empire is suspect. The reunifications of China had much to do with the single dominant culture in the region being so tied to the imperial identity. Having two dominant...

  10. Hadrian's Consolidation - reboot

    List of border towns incomplete You can help by expanding it

  11. Hadrian's Consolidation - reboot

    I wanted to express that I found this particular part to be slightly confusing and jarring. You should place some reference to their discussion about water mills in here:

  12. The Sons of Inti Shall Not Perish

    We have been blessed

  13. The Colombian Empire: A (mostly) United Spanish American TL

    You must be new here

  14. Hadrian's Consolidation - reboot

    Are you talking about mastic? Have you heard of Heron's Fountain? It appears to work on the principle of differential air pressure and answers the question regarding whether "air" has mass. Mass has a relationship with pressure and volume so I think that this can be an avenue to discovering...

  15. Hadrian's Consolidation - reboot

    Idea: place the aeolipile within a lead spherical chamber/disk with a funnel at the bottom to catch the steam. The water can be recycled.

  16. Hadrian's Consolidation - reboot

    Instead of locomotives, what about paddle wheel steamers as the first application of the steam engine?

  17. A House of Lamps: A Moorish America

    Technically correct is the best correct.

  18. Visconti Victorious: Medieval Italian Unification

    Thanks for the reminder

  19. The Sons of Inti Shall Not Perish

    I'm sure if you asked some pomegranates...
