Update 18 READ THE ENTIRE THING! 
THE END OF ANCIENT ERA, BEGGINING OF THE MIDDLE AGES!
The Ancient Era was marked at the decline and fall of the Egyptian empire *not roman
), a long period of peace passed, religions appeared, Chrstianity flourished in europe, but then it was divided as the eastern orthodox chrch splited, in the middle east, a new religion also came, islam, spreading from africa to teh middle east, in asia, buddhism apperaed, epreading fast.
** in the middle ages, the people will grow less happy when at war w/ an empire of the same religion....... but they might even volunteer to fight in wars against other religious believs *crusades style*, check the stats to see what religion ur empire became.**
u can change ur empires religion, but this it takes a long time and several turns, but be aware as this can bring negative effects such as civil wars.
As the time passed on, new agricultural practices were developed, allowing countrys to expand, those empires who had to handle pesky boring barbarins, were now larger, unlike those landlocked countrys that didnt had to worry much in the barbarian age. however, the new agricultural revolution of dividing the land in 3 sections has come to an end, as no more land can be found to sustain people w/ knon agriculturla practices.
this is still the same, u can't expand, exept by taking others peoples land, in the next age, the age of exploration and empire, it will be all about expansion ! expansion! expansion!
so dont pout .
New nations Appear in The map, and Old nations have changed, specially names.......so check the stats list, this all to make it more realistic w/ changin times.
AND NOW......THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE UGLY..
THE GOOD:
due to new govts of feudal lords and monarchys, u no longer have to have a specific economy to maintain the super sized military armys, so u can grow to legendary size and have an developing economy w/ no problem.....but be aware that poor economy and huge armys dont mix, they might rebel or go to the other side.
THE BAD:
Due to huge curruption in the feudal system, and since much of the money now goes to ur knighs, and the church, everytime u grow economy, it will grow one level, not 2 as it used to be. dont forget it.
THE UGLY:
Expect some nasty things......bubonic plagues, religious insurrections..... etc etc..
i think thats it, i edited the rules, a bit as u have seen, i also added new stat levels to economy and others......
