Dawn of Phoenicia

Himilco We already have a footprint in Europe and have made no significant military advancements. It would be better to wait until we were able to crush the Gauls under our feet with more advanced military technologies than to go to war now. As well, if we build an even more impressive economy and know more of the world we may be able to more easily wage war upon our enemies.

There was no Hanno candidate.

Mago marches in Gaul.

Instead of going for Lugodunon, a gaulish stronghold he goes to Burdigala meeating near to no resistance.

Gaul people of Quart Tarrak rioted, but the riot was supressed easily.

Lutetia defenders tried to keep the city, but they lost the battle and surrendered.

All of Gaul was under Carthaginian control.
All? But no! The small mountainous village of Lugodunon keep resisting against the conqueror.
Pety life for the camps of defenders.

After capture of Lugodunon all Gaul forces surrended.
Gaul was succesfully conquered by Carthaginians.

New Phoenician Empire after the conquest of Gaul.

Mago:

Mago Barca wants to conquer lands for Carthage. Inevitably greek kingdoms is the next target, but they are too strong to be conquered.
*Declare war on Greece
*Capture workers, destroy improvement especially strategic ones.
*Capture cities if possible.
*Small production of war elephants.

Himilco:

Himilco wants to continue Hanno's policy. He wants to circumnavigate the world.
*Focus on producing gold.
*Circumnavigate Africa.
*Settle a subsaharian city.


Hasdrubal II:

Hasrubal II wants to control all of Iberia and extract all of its riches.
*Culturally cover Iberia (city founding+culture buildings)
*Build mines in Iberia.
*Make sure Iberian cities controll all mines there.

Halao Barca:

Halao Barca wants to spread the truth of Tao in the empire over old believes.
*Research monotheism and adopt organised religion.
*Spread Taoism in all phoenician cities.
*(Off UHV course)

No leader that wants to settle the rest of Iberia and get back to discovering new techs?
War with Greece now would be a waste of lives and resources, and settling beyond the sahara a costly adventure with dubious gains.

Ok. I will add some more choices then.

No votes were casted, although options were added.
Thus elections are tied, I chose Himilco.

Tin isles were full of riches and hospitable people.
Trade relations with them improved.

New Phoenician Empire was the strongest empire in the world.
The world feared our army.



However, this didn't stop local rebellions.




Phoenician trade with Persians and Greeks was very profitable and brought new ideas.

Phoenicians explored west Africa and found new resources and riches waiting to be extracted. They found several colonies, but Golden Coast was the most important.

Phoenician empire remained in history as the most important ancient empire.
Its influence extends even in modern era.










It begun from a small city tributary to a Levantine kingdom and developped into one of the most important empire of ancient times.






That's all folks.

Huh. I was actualy expecting this go on a bit longer.
Thanks for the story Citis, hope to see another one soon.

Same here!
(Also I thought I had voted, but it seems my phone's net is not as reliable as I hoped)
