Economy:Growing 2/1

Sciences:2
Culture:1

Spending Orders

• 1 jack on economy
• 2 jack on sciences

Spoiler :

Military Orders

• 2 armies will continue to campaign against hostile Hittite tribes, focusing on those that are the most anti-Egyptian. This alternately weakens the pro-war Hittites, which increases the relative strength of any pro-peace groups and putting greater pressure on the Hittites as a whole to make peace.
  
• 1 fleet at Crete, one in Egypt, as before.
  
• The sooner this war is ended, the sooner we can continue colonization expansion in other areas.

Domestic Orders

The Pharaoh is Nynetjer.

• I have now invested 2 jack into my economy, and established control over many rich regions that provide luxuries and minerals for the homeland.
  
• A system of client-kings will be established in conquered Anatolia, Egyptian-influenced Hittite tribes that pay tribute to Memphis while retaining autonomy over their internal affairs. Copper and tin, as before, will be incredibly useful once I develop Bronze.
  
• Continued scientific research. Learn, baby, Learn! Particularly Bronze, from the Sumerians.

International Orders

• Trade with Carthage, if they accept, again.
  
• NAP with Arabs.

The king looked over what was now just an open lot. But the king had plans. This would be the spot for the New "French Quarter" which will be a feat beyond all others. This will certainly bring great pride and joy to the People of Louisiana.

Yes the times were good in Louisiana, but just outside Louisiana, in the unknown wilderness a group of uncivilized people which the people of Louisiana called "Barbarians." Everyone knew that these barbarians must be wiped out for the glory of Louisiana.

So Mousier de Roi has sent orders to do exactly that. But only time can tell if that will work. Because these Barbarians must be taken care of if the king wants to complete his goal of owning all of North America.

I was very tempted to say the exact same thing. Weird how people think alike.

A Flip of a Coin​

The nobles of Harappa looked at each other. Everyone seemed very excited, everyone looking around with wide eyes and listening with eager ears. Everyone in Harappa had heard the news: Two powerful realms had been found by the fleet. However, no lasting contact had been made. That’s why the meeting had to be called. To decide Harappa’s interactions with these new people.

“I say we conquer these pitiful people,” one of the nobles said. “We can defeat anyone if we face. Reports even say that the Arabian Confederation doesn’t even have access to bronze!”

Many supported this man’s idea, but then another man stood up.

“They are also far away, as well as more numerous than any rabble we’ve faced on our borders. A war with these people would be costly and dishonorable,” man shouted. The room grew quiet, and many looked around with shifting eyes, unsure how to continue the meeting. But slowly they began to talk again, giving reasons for invasions and reasons against them. And after these debates the room would get quiet. Then the cycle would start over again. It was becoming clear that Harappan leadership was having trouble deciding what to do.

Finally, the eldest member of the council stood up.

“Let fate decide our actions! I shall flip a coin. Heads we attack the Arabians, or tails we attack Sumeria!” He shouted.

The room got quiet as he flipped the coin. The few moments that the coin hovered in the air felt like years to the men in the room, the fates of thousands decided by that coin. And so gravity did its job, and the coin landed. On its side…

“Well the, what do we do now?”

“Just shut up.”

And so the men stood there in amazement as the coin stood on its side, not moving at all. Some of them simply left the building flabbergasted, not knowing what to make of the coin. Some prayed to the gods, wondering what the coin meant. Others cursed their luck, wishing for their own plan to be used. But finely the elder councilor began to speak:

“Fate has decided. We shall not march on either of these new countries, and we shall leave them in peace.”

And many agreed with the old man, believing that the sides of the coin represented peace and trade, not war.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Diplomacy:

To: Arabian Confederacy and Sumeria
From: Harappa

In this world of savages and hardships, we thought there were none but ourselves that were truely civilized and learned. And yet here you both are! We of Harappa are glad to see that other becons of civilization shine in this foggy world of barbarians. We would like to offer both of your trade and friendship, as well as the garuntee that we will help fight any uncivilized people assaulting any of your lands.

NInja dude, since you think like me does that make you a bad ass? I THINK SO!

EDIT- Wait.... Maybe I think like you! What does that make me, if this is the case...?

 

[Icekommander]

King: I love my new band of dumbers!

Advisor2: DRUMMERS

King: Oh yes right of course. I think we need a new national holiday: Band day!

Advisor1:Your majesty that Mayant(Pun fully intended) be the best idea?

King: Why ever not?

Advisor1:It's not really that significance, is it? Besides what would we do?

King: Well we would have a whole bunch of people play drums, and we would eat good food and drink lots of beer. Then we would party all night and wake up after 1/2 an hour of sleep with terrible hangovers. It would be a blast. And wouldn't other leaders be terribly impressed with it if we invited them?

Advisor1: Well, I suppose...

Royal planner: Your majesty time for your decadual tour of the country!

King: Is decadual a word?

Royal planner: Is now. It means every decade.

King: Hmmm. I like it! decadual, decadual, decadual. Somewhat of a mouthful isn't it? Decadual decad....

Royal planner:...

Advisor1: Oh god!

Royal planner: I would like to apologise in advance for this horrible monstosity.

Advisor2: Perfectly fine old chap! But now your coming with us!

Royal planner: Nooooooooooo!!!!

Next year, at a village beside a river​

King:...ual decadual decadual

Local: Your majesty!

King: Hi!

Advisor1: I think we can take out the earplugs now.

Local: Want to hear our band? We have made a few additions to the traditional one.

King:Sweet! I wanna hear it!

Advisor1: What are these additions?

Local: Why reed pipes of course! If you have enough of them and the right drums, it makes beautiful music?

Advisor1: Music?

Local:Music.

King: Music!

Royal planner: Music *sighs*

King: I totally want some for my band!

Royal planner: I shall add it to the plan!


And so reed pipes were added to the traditional Yahkman band which laid the foundations of modern music


Edit: OOC: Barbarians eh? Sounds good. And if your badass, what does that make me? ALso I"m not sure that both of you wanting to say "double post" for no paticular reason(other than the fact that sheep made a double post) does not make you think alike or badass.
