The African Legacy
My Zululand started out as a stong but backward nation. Establishing our empire from Zimbabwe to the Cape was slow and demanding, especially as we had to destroy those pesky tribes like the Bantu, as well as those annoying dinosaurs. Our aims were simple in the beginning, to occupy Madagascar and create a nation that filled Zimbabwe to the Cape without room for others to build. Expansion to the North was key once other barbarian tribes and dinosaurs were extinct, to build cities to protect Zimbabwe from a potential front line. Tensions had begun to create when we met other civilizations, whilst trying to secure an important with rich resources, including elephants key to our progress!!! However it was too far for our Settlers to occupy quickly and with Persia and Songhai closing down on us, we made the tough decision to declare war on Persia, as they attempted to settle in this important area.
The Persian and Egyptian War
After the declaration of War, I took many patrols of our great Impi Warriors North, we soon took the East Port of Hamadan. Persia had other ideas by signing an alliance with Egypt. By doing this we took it out on Egpyt by quickly razing 2 weak cities including Giza to the ground. Persian and Egpyt signed many alliance including Cambodia, Inodnesia, England and Germany yet there were going to do no damage as they were to far away to trouble the Zulu Empire. I then took Bactra of which was well established, I zoomed through to head for Byblos, I was then confronted by there Elephants that had met us on the border of Byblos, after failing to eliminate these, I saw more heading towards my remaining forces, it was time to get a peace treaty fortunaely I came off lighter than expected as we tried many times before with the Persians demaninding a big sacrifice. I only paid out 60 Gold.
More of the story will follow soon, with news on the persian alliance and an increase on anti-sematism within Africa
