This is a screenshot from my current game as "The Knights" for Europa Universalis 2. As you can see, I (grey) have managed to capture a good deal of Anatolia. The Karaman are an enclave in the south, and are my vassals. Everything gray in Anatolia belongs to the Order of St. John, though those specks north of the Black Sea are not mine- they're Georgia's, awful Paradox color choices as usual. West of them are two Crimean provinces held by Genoa (why I cannot fathom) and then Crimea itself. For some reason, Venice holds Adana, though as you can see it is currently undergoing a rebellion. Trabazond/Trebizond is in the hands of the Golden Horde. Sivas is Marmeluke.
I first captured Antalya from "Teke", and Konya from the Karaman. I only recently won Smyrna, Angora, and Kastaman from the Ottomans in a war in which I successfully laid siege to everything they had in Anatolia, and was laying siege to Constantinople. I was allied with Aragon, who caused a good deal of ruckus in the Balkans.
A view west of my insanity. As you can see, Venice is doing quite nicely, as is Hungary. Aragon owns southern Italy and the island of Sicilly. Also for some reason Corsica is indepenent.
Also, for reference, here is Iberia. I believe Granada was taken in 1427 by Castile (with the help of Portugal). Byzantium was also annexed by the Ottomans in 1436. As you can also see, Aragon and Castile are not united but they have divided up Portugal, which attempted to revolt a few years ago and was stomped. Right now the Aragonese are reaching for Navarre...
I like how Dublin is in the hands of the English, while Belfast is the capital of Eire. Eastern Ireland's going to be a contentious issue several centuries form now.
Your challenge is to rationalize all this with a timeline. Go!
edit- It's 1476, and Castile is now Spain. However, Aragon is still an independent kingdom from it. Que pobre!
