| A [[ancient and classical|timeline set in the ancient Mediterranean]], written by [[offtopic:robertp6165]]. It originated in a POD discussion thread started by [[offtopic:ImperialVienna]] in which he challenged anyone to come up with a scenario by which Malta would be the center of a large empire. While most responders offered scenarios based on PODs in the Middle Ages based on the Knights of St. John, [[offtopic:Robertp6165]] took up the challenge with a unique POD set in the early ancient period: //"Let's create a whole new ancient civilization, complete with its own language !"// |
