Except the people of Europe, in general, don't look upon the ITZHAKIST Jews in such a bad way as the others, save for the Byzantine peoples, naturally. The things is, there isn't too much diaspora left, and most of the remaining diaspora is Orthodox Judaist, not Itzhakist.
Bah! Das Kapital is better, because my username is mentioned in the TITLE itself! Now how is THAT for a faked presidential campaign?
Anyway, beginning update.

AAAAAARRRGH! I just realized I accidentally deleted Svenian orders!!! Ice Eye, please, resend them while I'm doing the rest of the update.

Purge the heathen!
The entire horizon was burning. Entire villages and lonely farms had been set on fire by the spearhead of the Visgothian army. A single rider rode towards Kings Siegfried. He was a Sergeant of the Order of Saint Martin and the mud and blood on his armour showed that he just had left the battlefield.
Sire we have burned very single building on the road to fortress of the heathen. The rest of the soldiers are still pursing hordes of peasants who are trying to escape from our wrath. We have only encountered minor resistance.
King Siegfried was pleased. His plan seemed to work. Maybe they would reach the city in a few days and then He assumed that the population of the city had doubled during the last months. Countless of peasants were trying to escape from him. All the streets would be jammed and the enemy would have a hard job to organize the defend of the city.
The Grandmaster of the Order rode on by his side. His entire head was covered by the iron helm and even the eyes were protected by grids. And that was the only part of his body not covered in some way by the plate armour. In his right hand he held the lance and in the left he held the holy shield of Order with a big yellow cross in the centre. He stared towards the horizon.
King Siegfried, this battle will be a big step towards the final triumph over the heathens. Im honoured that I can be part of the holy moment. My Knights are ready and the priests have finished the blessing of the army. We are only waiting for your order.
The King nodded. Slowly he pulled out his broadsword.
FORWARD TO VICTORY!
And the army started to move. Soon afterwards a chant was heard on the right flank. The Order had started to sing. Soon the rest of the army joined the singing. It was a imposing view as the crusaders marched forwards to beat the enemy of Christianity once and for all.

Update 7 - Year 1290 CE
Global Events:
Fennians relieve Finntown in the last moment, just as it was about to fall. The Iroquois are pushed back after surprisingly tough fighting. Elsewhere, Nova Tarentia has been captured by those Fennians, and Greenland with Iceland were returned to Scotia.
(-5 Fennian battalions, -2 Lombardian battalions)
Svenians pull out of Messipia just in time, as the Visgothians were about to cut them off. Messipians then proceeded to crush the remaining Scotians on the Aztec Peninsula...
(-3 Scotian battalions, -6 Messipian battalions)
Visgoths burned down all remaining Svenian Caribbean colonies (1 Economy transferred).
(-4 Visgoth UU, -3 Svenian UU)
The Svenians are a lot less lucky in the Mayan territories. Not only do Visgoths take Mayapun and Chichen Itza, cutting the Svenian supplies off, but also a huge and mystirious army arrived from the south by the order of some Inca. The Svenians are pushed back to the eastern coast...
(-11 Mayan battalions, -2 Visgoth battalions, -3 Severoslavian battalions, -4 Incan battalions, -14 Svenian battalions)
Incan expansion is slowly dragging on in the Amazon rainforest, due to the decidedly hostile terrain.
Camelotium fell and was plundered by the Scotian troops (-1 Economy). Their celebrations did not last long, though, as they were cut off from the sea and supplies. The attrition rate was horrible, nevertheless the Scotians chose to push on. However, they only managed to reach and besiege Londinium, and are losing THOUSANDS of men due to attrition in their camp. What could have been a war-winning measure now led to the entire Scotian army to be stuck in the middle of hostile terrain. Meanwhile, despite the heroic resistance of local militias, the Visgoths seized and pillaged the Scotian capital, Tara (-1 Scotian Economy, 1 Scotian Economy transferred to Visgoths). Most of Eire is now in Crusader hands.
(-29 Scotian battalions, -5 Britannian battalions, -1 Visgothian battalion, -2 Visgothian UU)
The Svenians defeat the Severoslavian fleet decisively, while linking up their forces along the coast. Severoslavians retreat to more defensible positions, allowing the Svenians to plunder some more territory (1 Economy transfer). However, as new orders did not reach the Svenian forces, they fail to launch a decisive offensive.
(-5 Severoslavian battalions, -19 Severoslavian ships, -4 Svenian battalions, -11 Svenian ships)
Severoslavian Ceaser, Dobrinin, has died, and the entire country mourns him. The new regent is determined to outregent the Polian regent, which is not too hard.
Alexandrine blockade hurts Croatia (-1 Economy).
Back in Fennia, Mielus inexplicably sends Fennian settlers to populate the frozen, nearly-uninhabited north of the land. This is looked upon as odd, and a group of nobles planned a nearly-successful coup which was stopped just as it was about to be implemented fully (-1 Confidence). Fennia jumps into the mobilization train (+30 battalions).
Khazars and Baltians sign peace but, apparently due to the Baltian maps (or lack thereof in sufficient quality AND quantity), the Baltians continue to occupy BYZANTINE Crimea, which supposedly was meant to be Khazar, and a corridor leading towards it. The Khazarian force moving in to reclaim that territory was brutally slaughtered, taken by surprise as it was. Meanwhile, most local Tarunists and even some of the Baltian troops who deserted after the peace (-10 battalions), refuse to leave Khazarian territory. They believed this to be dishonorable, and continued their rebellion. They already reached the Caspian Sea, merging with the remainders of the old Gogalite hordes living there, and are generally wrecking havoc (-1 Economy).
(-3 Khazarian battalion)
At least in the research front, things are going better for poor, poor Khazaria. Unexpected progress is being made on the project one (OOC: Erez, the first research you ordered for this turn), while designs for a ship similar to the Berber skullwall, but somewhat more mobile, have been acquired.
Meanwhile, the reason for the Baltian peace with the Khazars becomes rather obvious. They cut off the Black Army-held coast, and stopped two of their battalions from escaping. Ever. The rest reorganized themselves, though, and escaped into Polian territory. The low-moral (after the kings mystirious disappearence), though numerically superior, Polian border troops were crushed, and the Black Army got to the pillaging part (-2 Polian economy). The Regent of Polia himself has been captured (he was leading the Polian troops against the Black Army, but most of them ran away upon hearing of the previous defeats)! However, in Baltia, the people do not fear the Black Army as much as before, believing that the Black Army had ran away in fear, and realizing that it was a rather small force, really.
(-3 Baltian battalions, -16 Polian battalions (OOC: dont worry, most of these were just desertions/prisoners), -4 Black Army battalions)
Some of the Black Army soldiers were persuaded to talk after a long torture session! The Baltian Minister of Questioning (OOC: Its similar to Head of Inquisition, but its Tarunist) will gladly report the results to Henrich von Dunkelheit as soon as reminded to do so (in PM form).
Cretan Republic is no longer there, Croatia is the only one still fighting the Alexandrines. In a sudden burst of wisdom, the Croatian knights chose to abandon Carthage, burning it down (-1 Economy) and fleeing to Lombard positions. Unfortunately, their ships were sunken by the Berber Skullwalls... though the rest of the Berber Fleet still seems to be missing somewhere. The Lombards take the Berber city of Oranus after some hard fighting on the land (the Berbers made a determined last stand, drawing Lombards into the city and inflicting outrageous casualties upon them) and the sea (during which, the last remaining skullwalls were sunken save for one that was captured), but it seems that a large part of Berber population is gone. The Visgothian attempts to get new Berber recruits in their-held territory in Berberia failed, as the cities there are quite depopulated, though there is a growing Visgoth populace: most Berbers fled long ago, and now that Oranus was taken, there is nowhere for them to run to save from the desert... or is there?
(-7 Berber battalions, -5 Berber skullwalls, -12 Croatian battalions, -12 Croatian ships, -16 Lombard battalions, -13 Lombard ships)
Zulu war against the Khoisan League goes well. Ingenious tactics and strategy, combined with the first ever sub-Saharan African seaborne landing, allowed the Zulus to crush much of the Khoisan League. Nevertheless, its remnants withdrew further north and are prepared to fight to the death.
(-3 Zulu battalions)
Georgia sees huge amount of fighting, as Khazars attempt a counteroffensive. Unfortunately, the Byzantines have perfected primitive counterbattery fire and had the surviving Georgian mountaineers attack Khazarian supply lines. The Khazars bogged down, allowing the Byzantines (now-mobilized! (+30 battalions)) to launch a counterattack. It is costly, but pushes the Khazars further back. Unfortunately, this left the Syrian theater of warfare unguarded, and thus the Judeans launched a counteroffensive, advancing far into Cilycia, while Persian reoccupied the Byzantine-held Iraq as it was abandoned by its garrison.
(-29 Khazarian battalions, -9 Khazarian UUs, -37 Byzantine battalions, -3 Byzantine UUs, -3 Judean battalions)
Persians begin a campaign of missionary efforts, forced conversion and nasty things shown to Mithrian priests, somewhat increasing the amount of Itzhakists in the country.
As the year approached its end, the vassal king of Greater Manchuria, in a drunken rage, killed the Turkanese ruler. War is coming between those two Sinhalese vassal states...
Juang Empire is falling!
(spotlight)
(30 battalions defect from Juang to HW, -10 Juang battalions, -3 Heavenly Warrior battalions, -6 NDranese battalions)
The Edo Faction, having lost its leader recently, surrendered without a fight as its remaining forces joined with the Hamamatsu. It is unknown as to what will the former allies against Edo do now...
Sabahese diplomats continue gathering information, however, most information they managed to find in Java. The other missions are progressing rather slowly, though some points of relative interest have been found there as well.
Random Events:
Volunteers rush to join the Baltian army against the Black Armys assault (+5 battalions).
More people join the Order of St. Martin (+5 UU).
African tribes begin minor raiding against the European trade posts. This might develop into something bigger overtime.
Spotlight:
Fall of the Juang Empire
"Freedom comes from the Barrel of a Cannon"
- attrib. to Tzin Shu. "Why Do We Fight?".
In 1286, the Juang Wang Emperor formally abdicated and gave power to his cherished "parliament".
That was the last straw for his Empire. Apart from a minor area surrounding Juankorum and Korea Proper, not only Chinese peasants but even the Chinese and Manchu soldiers have rebelled. All the nobles with any foresight immediately fled to Sinhala or even pledged allegience to Shai Pai Ming. The Heavenly Warriors, once a minor, regional, secret movement now controlled territory roughly the size of Europe, surpassing even Tzin Shu's rebellion area. Meanwhile, the core of the loyalist troops were overtaken by a surprise attack in Korea - the N'Dranese force crushed in into the more patriotic areas of Korea, raising a rebellion and marching on to besiege the pro-Manchu cities further south.
All the remaining loyal troops fled to assist the "parliament" in Juankorum. Interestingly, the system begun to get off the ground, now that it was limited to only a tiny area around the city and thus had less corruption. The "Juankorum Commune" has been declared, and people like the Chinese lawyer Wai Zhen-li and a Manchu noble and brilliant commander Nabunai took over. They seem to plan to create their own state on their peninsula, though unfortunately they chose an arrogant and snobbish Manchu aristocrat, Khokhotai, as the leader of the delegation to Shai Pai Ming.
Meanwhile, grief fills the newly-liberated China. In the age of 79, Tzin Shu, the legendary Chinese rebel called by some "the New Confucius" has died from old age and numerous wounds. Since the rape and death of his two daughters at the hands of the Juang soldiers, he had sworn to fight for Chinese freedom, and he died, seeing that dream fulfilled. His last words were "make China great again".

We suggest that the borders are straightened a bit. You need some room around the eastern city and I will take some more lands in the west ok?

To: Lombardia
Congratulations on your deafeat of the last Berber city. Any idea were the rest of the infidels is hiding?
To: Croatia & Alexandrine Empire
We suggest that you end this silly war. We have to fight the greater enemy!

I probably forgot it. Read: polar bears disrupted supply lines.
Does Polia even have a NAVY to attack? Oh, wait, they have an entire SHIP.
Which is probably stored away somewhere.Most territory there is useless... but they did take a port city (albeit not often used) and damaged the connection with the eastern colonies.
OOC: As for underdeveloped, right now and in OTL it is the proud host of probably the most polluted city in Russia (as Chernobyl is in Ukraine).
Unfortunately, yes. I shouldn't have allowed it in NES2 I, nor here. Unfortunately, Gelion set the trend for nations to "mobilize"...

There is a Black Army in our backyard. Just in case rumors didn't reach you yet.

It seems obvious that it is the Alexandrines who are hiding them. Notice how conveniently the Berbers sunk our Croatian allies when the Alexandrines failed to catch them? The Maronites no doubt allowed the Berbers to hide from our wrath beyond the Herculean Channel.

A black army? African heretics and infidels have risen against you?
OOC: can we at least speculate i took some of the land i should've come the update? I dont much fancy the idea im losing out because part of my orders were missed

You can have some more in the west if you lose some in the east, just to give the cities a wider berth. Also if you claim the caribic then we claim the northern sectors of the NorthAmerican Atlantic coast and the islands between Britannia and there (when they come back under our control of course)

Woot! I expanded into Asia!!
Will post a story sometime soon. What are the chances of being able to stay near land/retreat a lot so that my navy doesn't get pummeled when I try to clean up the rest of the civil war?
LOL!

lurker's comment: Is it just a coincidence that the black army has the Sinhalese colors?
