History: After seeing Britain, the United States, & Scandinavia lost to Islam, the call went out for a new crusade to restore the power of Christendom. Bypassing Jerusalem, the crusaders decided instead to attack the Islamic Holy City of Mecca. Led by the Occitan Beauregard I de Toulouse, they conquered much of the peninsula & converted her inhabitants to Catholicism. When Beauregard died, his son, Beauregard II de Toulouse, took the throne. Identifying more with Arabian culture than Occitan culture, he changed his name to Ghalib Hakeem, & is ready to go on a crusade of his own; he is determined to spread order, faith, & prosperity throughout the world in the aftermath of the Happening.
