Masona stays independent...

I'm going to try to keep playing, but with high school cracking the whip at me, it's hard to.
Same.....
Imperia begins an expansion campaign to the west

Masona begins an exploration expedition in order to find new empires to trade with.

Erinaum changes it's National Anthem.
View it here!

Seriously, a really cool song.

Erinaum cuts out even more stone from the quarries for it's massive wall.  Previous sections of the wall still in the interior of Erinaum are being "Recycled" and brought to the new outside borders.

Avalonia expands its far side colony. Almost a million residents and friendly natives reside on the colony islands. a large stone wall encircles the main citadel, opening for the busy port. It's governed by the wise Avor family, kin to Avalonia's ruling family.

Work on the cbrown town to connect Avalonia and Erinaum continues with success.

Avalonian chemists have combined gunpowder with certain substances that increase it's volatility, three of the inventors have perished from explosions. Several other volatile substances have been discovered, though not exploited.

OOC:

What year are we in (relative to the real world).

Well, there's gunpowder and it's early industrial, so 15 or 16 hundreds or so I guess, although the course of technology hasn't been especially logical. So yeah, 1500s or so maybe. Thousand year time skip put us there.

Well, since there was about 500 years between the discovery of gunpowder and the creation of guns, I'd put ourselves at 1100 because the discovery was only recent.

Muskets aren't quite close enough.  (Plus, let's keep the honor of the sword for longer)

Erinaum's Cbrown town reaches the Eastern Border.  A celebration is under way, as a temporary dam is made 3 miles within the border and the cbrown town is filled with water.  5 crates of Åkkáłé¡ are opened.  The newly created gunpowder-based rockets shoot into the sky and explode, creating showering the sky with beautiful lights.  A nearby barbarian tribe gets frightened by the Erinamese and perceives the workers there to be gods.  They bow down and worship, but the Erinamese are having trouble persuading them otherwise as there is no translator available.  Erinaum sends a request to Rossiya Imperii, sincs the tribe came from their lands, if they can persuade the tribesmen that the workers are not gods.

Erinamian trading vessels can now use the cbrown town as a way to transport goods across Erinaum.  Erinaum waits until the Avalonian project reaches the Erinamian end.

(The empire of Rossiya Imperii has already fallen.

The Shogun of Nihon has passed, his son taking his place. Our armies continue to push Southward, finding almost nothing in their path.

Is there anyone left there who can translate the tribal language into Erinamese.  It'd be a shame to start a tribal war.  They're not going to let Erinaum continue the cbrown town and will certainly not let Avalonia come from the other end when they get here.

Presider Åø¡œvøn VII dies and the people elect ¡œvøn XXVI to the Presider position.

(The old Monarchy that governed Erinaum was the ¡œvøn family.  Åø¡œvøn was a closely-related cousin family that reigned when the Representative Socialist Federation was founded.  The Kings reigned as mere representatives withing the capital city.  Now, ¡œvøn XXVI, the 26th generation in the royal family, has been elected as the Presider)

Avalonia has control over Rossiya Imperii, it has been annexed into the Avalonian Union. Translators doubling as diplomats are sent over to Erinaum with escorts of light cavalry. Another group is being sent as far as the cbrown town will take them where they will continue with another group of light cavalry. It bis estimated that the groups will reach in a week or so (in game).

A wealthy Avalonian, Zoth, has founded an academy. Academ Zothus is fully staffed, and has around a thousand students at the moment. It's classes include astronomy, alchemy, engineering, art, philosophy, economics, mathematics, reading, writing, and religion. More courses will exist as qualified teachers arise.

Avalonian general Dornon has raised a near legion of hounds that he has trained for war, their spiked collars set them apart from other mongrels an enemy might employ on the battlefield.

Avalonia sets up a new taxation system. Every citizen pays a governmental and military tax, and then pays an additional small tax for every public service provided by the government that they take advantage of. Each tax goes towards its own section, for instance, the road tax pays for road maintainence, with one percent going to the central Avalonian government. Citizens are very happy with the new system, and the central government actually gets more out of the new system than the old.

The men reach the site of the digging and the tribesmen are peacefully removed.

Might Avalonia have any updates on the cbrown town's construction?

C'mon guys, we can do this!

Sorry, it's been a crazy week.

Cbrown town has passed through former Biron, and is entering an area well prepared by barbarians.
