Succesfull Andronikos I. Komnenos ?!

At the height of power:



Reign from Dnieper – Carpathians –Czech mountains – Danube – Alps – western mediteranian sea – Corsica – Sardinia – Northern Africa from Algeria on to Tunisia, Lybia, Egypt down to Ethiopia (more or less southern?) - Palestine – Syria – Mesopotamia – Azerbajian – Caspian Sea – Caucasus – Black Sea – Crimea


how many people or regions of this can assimilate within this time (~500 years?)

1)How do you go from Carpathians to Czech mountains and then Danube? invade Austria?
2) Arzebaijan,without Armenia and Georgia?
3) Dnieper including Minsk or down to Sosch,follow Dnieper to Dnipropetrovsk,Kershon?
If you put all the above in order of conquest then you will get more precise answers...it sounds ambitious and the planning will be a monumental headacke...

1. Yes, when Byzantine Empire gets the Byzantine Republic it will become quite agressive.
2. Nope, when i wrote Caucasus it meant Georgia and Armenia
3. Woops :eek: i meant Dniester not Dnieper... sound somehow similarly. I will introduce a raw plan in a little time.
