Persia is slowly becoming unified, scholars expect a more traditional Persia by the end of the decade.

5MP to build a trade center - foreigners may have resources we can acquire through negotiations we cannot through the land
4.5MP goes to the library of Persepolis, it shall be the grandest structure in all the world, and the first of its kind. It will further the goals of this mighty empire more than any other single work.

 

[Prospo]

Pope, give up your most recent claims in the east.

@The Nations of Asia- Would you all be interested in drawing borders?

@China specifically- You can have Tibet if you want, but I'd like the province to the South of it. Is this acceptable?

 

[Double A]

I'm in India too.

 

[CELTICEMPIRE]

boundaries should be defined

 

[NedimNapoleon]

Does calling a Jihad means I'm immediately at war, or does it mean I am obliged to declare war in the future?

No that means you declare war immediately infamy free

Minor Question - So when two nations claim the same terrirtory in the same turn, it goes to the person who claimed first?

No i do a coin flip, the first nation gets heads

@ Kingdom of the Dragon- I will have the parts of Indochina I already own plus the two in that unsightly gap between my main provinces and Vietnam, the east coast of India, and the islands of Indonesia, minus the Philippines.

Once again, Malacca expands. In this eventful time, the first major event to occur was the assimilation of the rest of the Island of Sumatra. The rebel state that had broken off there had always had very close ties to Malacca, even as it became a vestigial state. In fact, a royal marriage had been made between the two long, long ago. Now, it payed off as Malacca inherited the reminder of Sumatra.

In the north, the Cambodians had made true on their promise to capture Vietnam for Malacca, or at least most of it. Enough for Malacca. However, there was a small area filled with extremely hostile natives who had not taken kindly to rightful Malaccan superiority, and they threatened to split Vietnam from the empire. Therefore, decided the Sultan, a larger army must be raised to protect against these barbarians. Expansion would continue, no matter what these natives thought.

But these years were not strictly military. Singapore became a bustling center of trade, the link between the lucrative Indian Ocean trade and the Far East. With this influx of Western and Eastern trade, new ideas were spreading. In particular, many shipwrights were creating new ships that could go farther and farther. One lofty goal was to create a ship which could set out from Singapore and land in Africa with no stops. Though that dream is far off, progress is being made.

Expand to these four provinces:

Spoiler :

Invest .5 MP into Trade Center I. Invest 3 MP into Maritime I.
Raise two armies with 4 MP.

Benin submits this message to the Kingdom of Scotland, to his Holiness the Pope, and to the German Confederation:

You rule a land of plenty, a land of prosperity united by peace under the teachings of Christ. However, the European order is being threatened even as your lands prosper; the infidels are at your doorstep, seeking nothing but the end of the Christian kingdoms. Your unmatched might has prevented them thus far from making their move, yet the Muslims have not been idle; as we speak they prepare for war against our land and seeking nothing but the spread of Islam over all of Africa. It is to be feared that once they have conquered us they will be powerful enough to reattempt an invasion of France herself. We in Benin beg thee to take up our cause against this common foe. Benin is a land where Christianity has not yet been introduced, where it has choosen to delay its appearance over us. However, we are not a land of barbarianss and we are rising to fight these invaders. But if we need shipments of Grain to feed our armies, a resource which your lands have been blessed. Should you share your stock with us and give us the means to victory over our foe, you can be sure we will open the riches of Africa to your lands.
