Pain! Pain beyond words!

Let's make things more enjoyable around here.



600 CE

All nostalgia for Rome should be used up on this map.

Danipaguache: Blue Gray
Mutal: Leafy Green
Kaan: Dark Brown

Wari: Pink
Tiwanaku: Sky Blue

Eastern Roman Empire: Dark Blue Purple
Visigothic Kingdom: Forest Green
Lombard Kingdom: Yellow
Avar Khanate: Dark Greenish Brown
Frankish Kingdom: Blue
Kent: Light Red
Sussex: Blue Gray
Wessex: Crimson
Essex: Puke Green
Mercia: Medium Blue

The situation in India around now is very difficult to model, especially what with the scantness of historical material from this era.

Ah good, except for the Turks. Here's a map of the Gokturk Khanates in the period, according to Wikipedia; the lighter areas are directly-ruled, the darker aren't, but supposedly are mostly subservient as well, to one extent or another. Note that Khazars lived on the shores of the Azov Sea back then (where you put the Huns, as a matter of fact), and indeed were vassal tribes to the Western Gokturks.

@Drake- AGH!!!

Nice map NK.

They were like that in nesing for ages! but then North King came along and started sticking that colour on the maps and everyone just went along with it, I bet he's gloating right now! thinking he's better then me! well he aint, he should get down on his knees crawl into hell itself and burn for all eternity!

Nk wouldn't burn, he'd melt. Proven fact of kings of the North, they are made of snow and ice.

I didn't follow the new colouring...

They are! All those who disagree should be taken away by eagles...somewhere.

A++ oopps never mind

Awesome NK!

I wonder how, in NES terms, the Umayyads managed to rise so fast.

Hmm... I may have a hankering to mod a nes with that map and background

They had a genius leading them, and a bunch of story bonuses.

Holy mystic muffins, Batman! That's one heck of a Caliphate. Personally, I think Byzantium and Persia both forgot to send orders...

Thlayli was playing them? it would also explain how they fell so fast too

Disss. I actually just think that they were friends with the mod, Allah3000. He always shows favoritism. I mean, come on that big of a bonus for some prophet guy who only preached in two desert cities, sheesh. Muhahamid was obviously just ripping off Moesizzles stories from the first IT

The Ummayad Caliphate rose because of good orders, but even moreso because of utterly insane story bonuses (this exploitation of the story bonus system has become known as the Prophet Syndrom; stories were antalogized into a book called the Koran) and because of both of its neighbours having oversacrificed economy in their last war. Also the Visigoths were ruled by Sheep.
