Europe, 580, A.D.
The time of many changes.
In Northern Africa, a tribe of people called the Berbers begin to slowly settle down from their nomadic ways. For years, they made a living off of raiding caravens and have become adept at camelback warfare, but their current leader orders them to settle down. Still, nobody has heard much of this new kingdom that was established in the land known as Libya. Not even the seemingly all-knowing papacy. But then again, perhaps the Papacy doesn't know that much of what's going on in the world around them at all. In fact, thousands of miles away, a brand new religion is about to be born...
Still, Europe is for the most part blissfully unaware of such foreign events, caught up in her own troubles and inner conflicts. In the tranquille French countryside, a steady peace reigned for the first time in decades. The new city of Orleans had started St. Clotilda's bassilica and was becoming one of the most beutiful cities of Europe. The only noteworthy news, besides the sudden upturn in the French economy, is the mission Guntram sends to Heinrich I of Germany.
Meanwhile, Clotaire II, a healthy robust youngster and son of the deceased Clotaire I begins to gain favor of the king. Rumor has it that he is next in line to succeed once the heirless Guntram dies.
Iberia is just as quiet. The Andorrans sit around constructing their great wonder and increasing their economy, while the Visigoths construct roads and expand slightly to the North and East. Recent explorations by their adventurers have established contact with the two peoples.
In the cold North, King Maati meets good news. A leading noble grants him his daughters hand in marriage. Within a few years, King Maati and his wife, Olga, have a child, Lalli, a healthy 4 year old. A university is build in Helinski, which is quickly becoming one of the most culturally advanced towns in Europe. The only trouble comes from Pagan norsemen from the North, who refuse to accept Christianity and start to raid villages at the Finnish borders.
Hearing of Maati's trouble, King Juhan of Estonia quickly sends aid. 500 Estonian Horsemen, and 500 Finnish Royal Knights quickly destroy all opposition. Thousands are forced to convert, and Finland gains much territory.
Estonia itself is going along very well. A direct land border had recently been established with both the Russians and the Finnish, the three countries all having contact with each other. Estonia also expands farther along the Baltic coast, and rumors of a large kingdom to the West come up. The army grows as the economy worsens, but the future looks bright. A great wonder named the docks of Tallin has been started, as workers continue to work diligently at improving the practically nonexistent Finnish navy. Juhan also asks for trade with the Russians, who agree. The best piece of news is last, as Juhan has recently recieved a heir, a son named Konstantin.
Trade flourishes between Russia and Estonia, however, not in an organized manner. Though the groundwork is established, neither side recieves economic bonuses for the bartering activiites. Untill 572 that is, when the Russians become the first European nation to establish an official trade route. It costs a lot, but Russia will now recieve an economy level every 3 turns.
Russia had also recently ordered many expeditions. The first was to find more Slavic cities and unite them with the Rus, however there they ran into a problem. There didn't seem to be any other Slavic cities. Indeed, the Russians were the most advanced Slavic people's in the world. However, far West, rumors of another Slavic kingdom have emerged. But they're obviously just rumors
. The only rumors Ivan III is concerned with right now is that of a large empire to the South, that of Byzantium. He orders a great expedition to go Sotuhward and establish a tradingpost from where contact with these Byzantines could be started.
Speaking of Constantinople, Emperor Justinian dies. However, not before establishing a line of succession. He is succeeded by a young noble named Maurice I, the new Byzantine empire. Maurice I continues the job his predecessor had started. A new statue is started in Byzantium, the war statue, dedicated to the Byzantine military. Expert craftsmen get set to spend their entire lives working on it. Armenia was recently annexed at the price of an economy level, and Maurice's recent additions to the army don't help either. Further expansion into Anatolia is conducted, and perhaps most importantly, a large caravan leaves with Diplomat Soo for the land of China in 872 A.D. However, nobody has heard of them since. Still, the Byzantine Empire is the most powerful in the known world.
In Germany, the news from the French is greeted lightly. As is the Hungarian presence to the South. The economy is greatly increased, while further expansion is mounted. More germanic tribes join Germany, but the nobles grow uneasy at the King's new power. One in particular, Henry of Saxony, seems ready to revolt.
The Sassanid empire expands farther in ancient Persia, Shah Khorsau I still extremely angry at the Byzantines. Still, he's too far to do anything to them for now. As for the Hungarians, they expand into the Balkans, meeting little resistance from the many Slavic tribes going Southward. The Mediterranean Kingdom, expands into Southern Italy.
And of course, our favorite hell on Earth. Britian!
Learning something from the latest encounter, Ragnar Savag, the Ironfist tries to copy the strategy Alfred III used in their last encounter. For years, Alfred and Ragnar had been fighting numerous small battles, but the biggest yet was about to be fought. The Norwegians and Northumberlandese met, deep in Northumberlandese territory. Alfred's army was boosted with the loyal locals who had picked up arms and joined his ranks, however Ragnar was determined. Surrounding the enemy, Ragnar's huge force completely annhialated Alfred III and his weak army. The fact that it even took a while and took many Norwegian lives is astounding, and a testament to Alfred's capabilities as a strategist. However, Alfred III died in that battle. Ragnar became a great hero of the Norwegians. He had conquered all of Britian and controlled a large chunk of Scandanavia. And nothing could stop the Norwegians from becoming the world's most powerful force!
Or could it....
tongue: sorry Amon. I can't just completely kill of Revolutinary, and besides, you're long overdue for a challenge)
On the way back home to Norway, the heirless Ragnar III dies before returning to Oslo. He is burried in one of Oslo's many Nordic temple, his people weeping around him. All hell breaks lose at that point.
Norway is split into a bunch of warring factions, mainly headed by Ragnar's old generals and nobles. Clubbing each other for years, the ancient kingdom of Norway is practically destroyed. Still... hope remains. A young lad named Eric, nephew of Ragnar, has just gained control over Oslo and the surrounding countryside. Perhaps, with his army of 2000 men... he could lead Norway back to the top of the World.
As for Britian? Northumberland falls into Anarchy as well. Nobody is sure what will happen. However, a druid mysteriously appears in Northumberlandton one day, with a magnificent sword in his hand. As if by magic, he lodges it in a giant boulder and places it in the graveyard of St. Alfred's abby. He proclaims that the man who draws the sword from the stone shall be the rightful heir of Northumberladnton.
As for the Anglo-Saxons? Cedric, the king of Wessex who had years ago beseeched Norway for help gained control of all the kingdoms that had been united by Ragnar. He calls his country "Angloland", which is later shortened to "England". The ancient Roman city of Londonium is rebuilt, and shortened to "London". Cerdic turns his eye to improving his economy, which is strugging, although he also sends a message to Oslo later that year.

We hear you are the rightful heir to our ancient friend, Ragnar Savag the ironfist. If it wasn't for the efforts of that great man, I would never have made our own nation. We offer our help in any way we can so that you may regain the territories your Uncle had lost upon his death.

Oh ye people of Northumberlandton. I have no intention of invading you for now. You are free to do as you like, but we welcome you to become a part of England. We only ask that you stay out of our own country for the time being.

Had Ragnar known any of this was going to happen...He would have had more sex (And therefor had an heir)...Because this sucked!All of Norway rested on these warring factions that didn't recognise Erik's rule.
Erik Savag would gain the title "The Mighty" after this because well....He'll be mighty
Erik's first act as regent of Oslo would be to Greatly raise the military...So he raised it by 3000 men!These would come to great use in the wars ahead.
Here was his plan for the war
He at first sent out a message to the South Western faction saying that if they don't surrender he will attack them furiously and without mercy...If they fail to comply Erik will send a message to the Northwestern Faction to help me against the Southwestern faction and divide the land between the both of them.1000 men were to stay home in case of a surprise attack from an enemy.
After the defeat of the southwestern faction (And a draft from that region to strengthen the army) a message to the northeastern faction would be sent telling them to surrender...if they fail to comply Erik would send a message to the faction just south of me to help out against them...We would divide the land in half...Again leaving 1000 men behind to defend Oslo and territories.
After that (And another draft from the newly conquered area) Erik Savag would then send a message to the northwestern faction to submit or meet the fate of the other 2 factions....If he did not comply Erik would send all but 1000 men against him...Then draft from the newly conquered area.
Then a message would be sent to the other 2 factions...And if they don't comply Erik sends forth ALL of his armies to whipe them away...And then of course draft and take all the ships from them.
Also...If the factions surrender just draft from that region and proceed as per the plan....And if the other factions don't aid me...Go in alone. But stick to the plan..And if Angloland helps I'm sure that some of the factions will surrender...And probably the last 2 would surrender after seeing the northeastern example.
Have the Ango Saxon men fight alongside mine in every battle.Oslo is to be gaurded by Norwegians.
If the enemy factions wish to surrender durring a battle let it happen...But send them to dungeons untill they're all in there...And exicute them!Let it be known Erik Savag is the ruler of Norway! Noone else!

Could you perhaps keep a post with all the trade routs somewhere? or just write +1 or something next to conomy in the post with the nations, so we know what trade routs are, and how much economy we can expect next turn.

Story:
Ivan III was consirned with the failure to find any other civilized slavic people around this area, but that was a secondary consern.
Right now expantion, and finding a route to the empire in the south that rumers call Byzantium were the primary consern of the Russian Tsar.
In order to expand the Tsar created a class of Boyars, who were large landowners, nobles etc, and granted each one the right to some land that they would have to expand into. Each of these Boyars was given a group of soldiers to help with the expantion, and some degree of independance from the Tsar, so the expantion could continue without the Tsars constant atention.
And finally the Tsar organised an expedition of 1000 man to head down the Volga river and explore and bring any native population under the control of Russia. Plus establish a post from witch later an expedition would be launched to reach Byzantium.
Diplomacy:
To Finland
From Russia
We are neighbors, and neighbors should help each other. We propose a begining of trade between our two peoples, I am sure it would benefit both our countries.
Orders:
Improve economy by building harbors alond the river, so trading is more easy using boats. (That, together with the trade rout from Estonia should put my economy to excelent)
Create a trade rout with Finland if they agree
Expand in all directions following the story
Send 1000 man down Volga to create a post for later expeditions
(All of this should put my economy at stable, right? or am I confused again?)

Eh.. 
You can:
- continue wonder
- order expansions
- conduct diplomacy
- begin trades
- and do ONE thign in one turn. So you either raise the army OR raise economy, OR you can build churches. Not all at once.

Rumours were growing in Estonia that the royal ships would be soon send to a long trip; and king Juhan himself would be leading that trip!
"It is time!" yelled the old king Juhan.
"What is?" asked his son Konstantin.
"Ever since my father Lennart was the king, it has been the will of Estonian tribes to be in control of the entire southern Baltic Sea. And now, my son, as our nation is growing in all possible ways, it is time to send navies to explore beyond the seas!"
"Woah father, isn't that a bit dumb? I mean, we might lose some men and we could sure use them for better purposes..."
"Like what purposes, son?"
"Warfare..."
"Goddammit! Don't tell me that you'll become one of those war-mongering fool-kings once I die!" Juhan yelled at his son and then beated him up and kicked his ass until it was turning blue, as it was often done for misguided children during those times. And Juhan kept his head; and in his old days he not only send 100 ships to cross the Baltic sea, he also joined the voyage himself!
ORDERS:
-Send 100 ships (and 500 footmen along them) to Sweden to modernday Stockholm to spread the Estonian empire!
-Start huge settler recruiting programs, allowing free land to everyone who volunteers to become a settler in Sweden!
-Make king Juhan himself join the journey to get more people to volunteer!
-Send 1500 footmen to expand south along the Baltic coast towards Germany (leaving 1000 footmen to defend Estonian soil)!
-Send 1000 horsemen to quickly expand south, towards Hungary!
-Grow economy! Grow economy by trading furs with barbarians! Grow it like a friggin MANIAC!
