Update - 3400 B.C.
Years pass. The Spanish King found many of the key protestors from that anti-army protest a few years back and fed them to the Lions. Then he realized he didn't have Lions, so he just threw them into the sea. Eitherway, that scared the people silly. They didn't become unhappier, but it was hardly a good thing. Spaniards throughout the country start mining. This increases the economy. Little metal goods such as chains and jewelry become a renowned characteristic of Spain that lasts to this day.
In Korea, the dead king is replaced by a counself of various important politicians. They often squabble, meaning important decisions take longer to reach, but every once in a while they appear unified and send Korea forward. Their first great decision was to expand further South along the Chinese coast. As an extra stroke of brilliance, some economists set up rice farms all along the new territory which increases the economy. The dead king's son, Stalin007 suggested the start of a grand project. The Korean Golden fleet. The Korean fishermen overwhelmingly support this endevour. Backed by popular support, the council approoves. It will be completed sometime in the not too-distant future.
In England many new changes were happening. After many complications, the Welsh finaly organized their army by the English system, and unified the two forces. The King sent messages to the two Northern Nations filled with threats. War clouds loomed over England. The tax at the already constructed temples was increased, which did wonders considering that everyone was praying for a swift conclusion to the war. The economy increased. The dull mood of upcoming war and the bad weather was somewhat lifted by the announcement that the Great Temple was half-done. Crowds gathering at the capital city of London gazed in amazement at the building arising from the many huts. The King then started organizing his battle plan.
Then something disastrous happened.
Apparently a temporary truce was signed between the two barbarian countries, and the picts took advantage of it. A raiding party of 30 men went to the Welsh bordertown of "Welsh Borderton" and massacred the populace. Horrified, the Welsh (who were up till then sceptical of the war) stood behind their king from that moment on. The Armies quickly filled up, larger than ever, and angrily marched toward Scotland. With the new agression by the picts... the Scotland-first battle-plan was harshly criticized in some corners.
Meanwhile in the Golden Empire of Egypt was doing pretty well itself. The few Assyrians whose land was destroyed by the Israelis fled to the new country, while Arabs, some Nubians, and Berbers all came to the region. They all got together suprisingly well though, and a new race was created. Their Pharaoh, China444, mobilized the galley's for the first time and made them expand along the coast to the west. Egyptians cheered, their country growing smarter and bigger without a care in the world... for now
The problems were however piling one on top of the other in Israel. First, news finally came of the ex-Assyrian king. Apparently he had gone to seek help from the Hitties, who agreed to take back his territories. Unlike the Assyrians, the Hitties had a much bigger and better trained military. No pushover. To make matters worse, panicking Assyrians demanded the king protect them. Israelis, frightfull that the Assyrians got them in this tight spot, respond in a wave of racism against the Northward people. Amass this chaos, intellectuals look toward Amirsand and his decision on the matter...

New Unit
Welsh Revengeman
Formed after the Pict raid on "Welsh Borderton", the new troops are arguably the best in England's arsenal. Unlike the English fighting for expansion, these Revengeman fight for... revenge, giving them a thirst for battle with the picts.

From the People
"Arrgh! Lemme at dem' Pict bastards! They'll pay for dis'! Who cares about them bloody Scots! The King better have us march to Pictland first!" shouts enthusiastic Welsh revengeman Adrian Wynn, on the march North.
"Look at how smart I am!" sais Egyptian youngster, Amunthep Kharattum, brandishing the new stone tablets he wrote hieroglyphics on. Unfortunatly, he misread a street sign on his way home, ended up taking a wrong turn, and got eaten by an unfriendly dog.
"Aaahh!! The Hitties are coming!! This is all the Assyrians fault!" shouts Raghib Lipkastein as he throws a rock through the window of an Assyrian couple's house.
