Pre-History of Sinhala

Please note that I do not feel like researching the history of real Sinhala, and so will not be historically accurate.

The fertile plains of Sinhala is what gace birth to a world empire. Along the wind-swept grasslands of central Sinhala (Sinhala being modern-day Sri Lanka) there reigned a tribe of supreme fighters and excellent barterers. This tribe was lead by a succession of chiefs of the name Jamao. Back to before oral record dates, the name Jamao has led the tribe in the dangerous and competetive world that they inhabit. Upon becoming chief, Nikapu Jamao had great plans for his country. The tribe now numbered in the thousands, and the central village was now a sprawling village of commerce and population. The protective army was now much more dominate then anyother force upon Sinhala, and so the tribe gained the name of Sinhala, ruler of the island. Becoming chief, Nikapu set the destiny for Sinhala in a number of campaigns of uniting the island, one of which would later claim his life. The Sinhalese army was set forth to unite the tribes of Jaffna and Colombo, the largest rivals to the civilization of Anuradgapura, the capital village of Sinhala. The battles were excitedly on the side of the Sinhalese, who soon united the island underneath the "purple lion" banner. Sinhala was now posed for Indian-Dominance.

Upon the destruction of the Colomo tribe, the man who made it all, Nikapu Jamao was killed while fighting off a counter attack against his army's camp. At his funerul, his son Haiya became what is now called Emperor instead of chief. He, too, was an expansionist who learned from his father who was the most honored chief in all of Sinhalese history now. Statues and murals of him were soon made and constructed throughout Anuradgapura, and soon the whole of Sinhala Island.

With all of the island under Sinhalese control, it would be much harder for Haiya to reign in his father's footsteps. However, there lay a large land, larger then four of Sinhala Island's, for what Haiya knew, and it was all for the taking. So eventually the Sinhalese navy was born by the construction of transport rafts and canoes; and the maps of Sinhala grew as the Emperor financed more and more voyages into the unknown areas of the continent. The scouts soon brough back new of another nation, worthy of the contact and diplomacy of Sinhala. This nation claimed to call themselves Dravidians. This of course was a huge dilemma to Haiya, as another nation would mean a halt in expansion. So, done quickly to offset the expansion of the Dravidians, the army was sent across Palk Strait and into the jungles and mountains that only a few Sinhalese had ever dared to venture into.

The Indigiounus people were of course against the expansion of the Sinhalese islanders onto their land, but there was little to be done against the mighty army serving under Haiya Jamao. Tribe after tribe fell to the armies of Sinhala, and the wealth poured from the blunders and into the capital, making the nation rich and prosperous. Haiya didn't stop with the fall of the strongest tribe in Sub-India, the Madurai. No, he pressed on into the dense jungle regions of the country, conquering tribes that were unknown even to the most edept explorer.

Soon Sinhala had reached the border with the Dravidians, Haiya pleased with what he had accomplished. He had conquered just as much territory as his father, plus the added fact that he had created so much wealth for the new nation, and conquered so much unknown land, that he would definetly go down in history. Haiya died a year later, after the official border with the Dravidians had been set. His first son, Hakai was sworn into his position on his father's funeral as well. Hakai is an Emperor of the people, not the economy, but still decided to honor his father and grandfather with such a statue that would withstand the ages.

And thus is the story of Sinhala untill now.

ORDERS
Begin construction of Jamao Statue, increase the army by 200 men and citizen mood.
Increase the economy by investing in a national treasury.
 
SICILY

Step 2 had begun for the rebirth of Sicily. A new empire would arise from the old one. Step one was the economy and age upgrade. Step 2 would be a major army increase, and an education increase.Also, the UU's would be exchanged for money. A new name for the empire would be taken from this time of 'rebirth'.

ORDERS

- Increase the army TONS.

- Trade in the UU (its supplies should be worth some money) for one + economy level for me. (the UU will trade in their suuplies for money and then the former units will become regular citizens. The suuplies are worth money, giving me a free economy level.

-Increase the education.

-Change nation name to 'New Sicily'

-Expand into mainland Africa.
 
[War chronicle as told by "Gitul Serif"]

-we embarked off of the Emperial navy into the heart of the enemy.In front is a forest.Behind to my left I see a village and to my right I see a plains and a farm.
-My Likot informed my unit that we weren't going to be doing any hardcore ransacking of villages unless they were on the way to the enemy capitol...So we went into the forests,now knowing of the dangers ahead.
-I had equipped my trusty sword of bronze I called "Arse kicker" and my shield "Thy juriz" (Or "My gaurd").I had on my copper chainmail and I was fit for battle as the Geystral lad I am.The Likot on the other hand was more elaborately decorated...With his Green cape and with a jade emblem of Geystral embroidered on the Cape with the seal keeping the cape around him...The Kardah had a Jade clad Bronze suite of chainmail on...On his horse and surrounded by his best men...We were sure of easy victory.
-(Day 2)we've been marching into the forests when archers unloaded a hail of arrows at us...Luckily half of them were traitors and they turned on the others and unloaded them arrows at eachother...It was sheer confusion as the battle was taking place...We didn't know who to kill and who to take prisoner...And who to let join us!
-(Day 3)Another ambush...This time following it was a cavalry rush that was stupid....We couldn't catch all the archers this time...But the cavalry assault we anhialated.I even got an arrow in my arm that day!
-(Day 5)We've found a trail that is said to lead us to the Java capitol...We're taking it...We've been under constant pressure from the Java militia's and whatnot and we're not sure what's gunna happen anymore.
-(Day 7) We've been taking this road and now see ourselves misled...We've tooken the wrong road and an enemy army is scouted to be 3 hours away...Atop a hill.The scouts say there's easilly a hundred of them...My Likot says we're going to have to take the hills tomarrow.
-(Day 8) We've attakced the Hills gaining almost instantaneous ground against these primitive bastards...Some of these enemy soldiers...half conscripts,even threw rocks much to their idiosy...I got a small rock chucked at me from a kid...I dropped my weapon and started laughing...Falling to my knee's and weeping in joy as the stupid kid ran because he thought I was posessed...To him it was life or death...To me it was laughing whilst roling on the ground helplessly at the commedy performed around me.
-(Day 11) We've been following a new trail...On the heels of the army we just vanquished back at the hill.My Likot sais we're 2 days march to the enemy capitol.
-(Day 13) We're at the doors of the enemy capitol...We've made camp and the army is divided into 2...One part consiting of 200 Gitulen and one force consisting of 100 Gitulen...I'm with the 100...We have to take a hill to the right of the capitol...This should be interesting.On the bright side I get double rations for today:D
-(day 14) We've stormed the hill today...A relitively easy task to accomplish because there were no more than 50 soldiers...Half conscripts on the hill for us to maul down...We mount "Rock hurlers" on the hill today using enslaved ******* Java from the nearest village.
-(Day 18) after much rock hurling we decided to go in...And go in we did..Pummeling the city and taking half of it just today!I'm in a plundered house right now...I think the next day's battle should be very easy.
-(Day 19) the day's battle was an onslaught for the enemy..We took them down and now there's Geystral flags rose apot the towers of this city...The Kardah gave a good speech today...I forgot to write it down but I remember my spirits being lifted heavilly...We're sure to do some good for this barbaric kingdom.
[End of chronicle]

After the battles took place in Java the Emperor of Geystral was happy that he had barely lost any lives...He therefor had parades and festivals threwout the Empire to celibrate these victories.The aim of these scattered festivities were to gain some volunteers for the army so the Empire could go about doing it's normal job of sanitising itself.

ORDERS

-Keep waging the good war against the Java.Using the whole army to smash them...Give full pardon to those who surrender and enslave those who don't

WONDERS IN PROGRESS:

Could someone give me a little background of Etrusca? I tried looking but 15 pages doesnt sound like fun to me :p
 
Etrusca? it' in Italy? It was never a country... just the name of this people Estrucans... If I'm correct about you civ at all...
If so Everything the Roman had they took from the Estrucans including balistas and all other weopns... But legions were invented by the romans...
 
Azale- I can give you the history of the Etruscans if you want to be them. But Europe is already incredibly crowded with players, not to mention NPC's. There is plenty of open area in Asia or Africa and if you'd like a nation there just let me know and you'll get a suitable bounus for starting late. If not, just let me know and Etrusca it is. By the way, thanks for joining.
 
Espania

The land of Espania continues to be powerful amng thier neigbors. Though only one threat arises among all of them, France. This small nation, though strong. They have recently sacked the Gaul Capitol, a useful, very useful city.

I call my council of all five states representatives to one table in my palace in Madrid. The wooden seats are all filled while everyone whispers to each other. "Why are we here... what's happening... what is that red robe this guy is wearing... what am I haveing for lunch...?" it went on and on until I entered the room, the room hushed as everyone's eyes were looking straight at me.

"Hello everyone," I said in spanish "you probably haven't notices why we are here-" A break of whispering occurs. "Ahem, you are here about our threat up north, in one hunderd years our philosophers predict a recruit of 400 more troops to our army, this should be put to good use..."

The discussion went all night long and then to the next day. Many were tired and exhausted, though we have though of something...
 
As of right now i've got 8/13 orders. I'll do the update un about 3 hours if i can get just a few more. Oh and Azale, just let me know what nation you decided on, and i'll get the stats made for you.
 
So were is this update we were promised in 3 hrs?
 
The Hittite Army continues to siege Troy. Still barely clinging on the Greek defenders of the city fall in droves to the fury of the Hittite’s. Seeing their inability to break through they city walls of Troy the Hittites construct a navy and send it across the Aegean Sea, only to have the superior Greek navy destroy it enroute. The first wave of 100 Hittites die in the worlds first large scale sea battle.

In Central America the War of Aztec Superiority continues with a full scale Aztec and Honduras assault on the Toltecs. Both sides gain significant ground but the Honduran armies are able to advance further due to the mysterious death of the local Toltec general.

In the Middle East the Arabians establish a trade route with the Persians, exchanging slaves, animals and textiles for food weaponry and gold. They expand further into the desert and found the village of Riyadh near a oasis facilitating growth. Their continued diplomatic attempts to integrate the Israelis yields no results as they insist on their own nation. In addition they begin the Great Arabian Conscription to increase the armed forces.

In North America the Canadians utilize the Huron triremes to ferry settlers across the Great Lakes. In addition the Canadian explores and traders shed new light on the size and power of the Cree people. Also the Delaware’s introduce the Canadians to many previously unknown cultures. The Canadians also finally complete the College of the War of Self Determination.

On the Indian Sub Continent the Sinhala government begins construction of a statue to the former Jamao’s. They also grow their economy by massive investment into the national coffers.

In the Mediterranean Sea, Sicily remains itself and initiates a massive growth of the army. In addition to this growth a overhaul of the empire itself is enacted. They expand deeper into the desert of Africa, and are stopped by the inability to transport water that far into the expanse. Their unique Sicilian warriors are disbanded to put more money into the Sicilian treasury.

In Southeast Asia the Geystral army continues to advance in the Java jungle, but does so slowly and taking massive casualties as both sides don’t know who are allies and who are enemies. Towns change allegiances daily depending on what army is closest and who threatens them the most at any given time.

In the northernmost reaches of Asia a new people known as the Magadan’s arise out of the cold forests and start the beginnings of the first Siberian state society.

In West Europe the Spanish construct a large wall on their border with the Franks. In response to this, the surprised Franks then initiate the construction of a larger fort system on their side. Also in the north the Lapps overrun the embattled Spanish colony due to lack of supplies and inability to cope with the cold. Further to the east the central European barbarians begin an invasion of German territory and the Slave nation.

NPC Diplomacy
I'm going to hope that i don't need to still do this. If you all still want me to let me know, and i'll put it back up for next update.

Trade
Geystral - Vietnam (2/3)
Arabia - Persia (0/3)

Rules
Everyone might want to look at their economy before ordering anything expanded. A_Dead_Rat, your econ was dead, and you ordered two things upgraded, i accidently gave you a navy even though technically you couldn't afford it. In any case it got destroyed.
Also from here on out, if you are in the Bronze age an upgrade of army is 150 men.
