With the island of Tegota* firmly in his control, Kyroke turned his sights north to Hanaki**. amassing a large force, he set out to secure his dominance on the main island. Disunited in their constant warring, the scattered tribes started to fall one by one to Kyroke's united force. Yet these tribes were not like to ones that had settled on Tegota. Many of these tribes were semi-nomadic, and quite adept at leaving at a moments notice. Despite his initial headway, his opponents were able to evade him, fleeing further north faster than his forces could follow.
Back on Tegota, a new discovery had arisen in the western seas. A small fishing crew had stumbled upon a Huaxia outpost, located on an island near Kotana***. The guards there had welcomed the fishermen from behind a wall of spears. This was considered a good sign, as a man who fears his neighbor and meets him with force was considered honorable. Still, no blood was shed, and a small trade route was soon established between Okasina and Shou Qiu. Still, Kyroke was wary of his new neighbors.
The Renota tribe, who had fled to Kotana, were flourishing. despite a misunderstanding with a coastal village (which resulting in the village being destroyed) the Renota were able establish a safe community on the mainland. Here, abundant farmland allowed the Renota to grow, and helped ease some of the tensions that were inherent in Kasanazi society.

It wasen't my intention to block you. I just wanted to create a path north so I could have a city in North Afrca
Ok, maybe I went too close to you. I'll change the map so I'm headed for the west side instead

New Rule Update: Trade Centers
I changed the way they work. When they're created, the trade income+city LP is added together and all routes adjusted. The number is then frozen in place for three turns. (Which means increasing LP and/or trade to the city wouldn't increase the route income until the three turn mark).
New Events: Trade Events
Take note, events are bad. M'kay. They also can only affect a certain segment of players. For instance, the average LP (the city cost) this turn is 38 which means these events can only normally affect players whose total LP is 38 or above. Players under 38 can be affected as well but only in a severe case. Note, the average changes each turn.
Also note, none of these can be triggered while you're at war except Collapse (read the section for further info).
There's also a secret event not listed.

I could just sell you some land or something.
King Saul was sad. How could he be though? The armies of God and brought land and wealth to the empire. Trade was booming in Jerusalem. Israel was one of the wealthiest nations of the know world, so how could he be? The answer was David was getting all the fame for leading the armies. He killed Goliath, not Saul. He annexed the Syrians, not Saul. Saul always wanted the glory and fame that came with battle, and he never got it.
Saul discharged David from the army, and instead put him as one of his top advisers. The King donned the armour and weapons, and marched to leade his armies. His achieved success in the South and the East, taking Bedouin and Mesopotamian lands. He then choose to march North, to bring the people of Canaan into his Kingdom. It was his only defeat. The enemies flanked the Israeli armies, and broke through the ranks. In complete confusion, the armies of god were defeated, and there bones lay in the ground. To avoid capture, Saul fell on his sword, and David was hence know as The Second King of Israel.

It was a momentous day. The Euskaldunak, after making first contact a civilized group, were ready to truly step beyond the mountains of Pirinioak. A small explorer unit, representing all the Basque people, ventured beyond the mountains.
It was a momentous day. Euskaldunak boats from the east of Iberiar had found an island in the middle of the sea. The island had no native population. Clearly, this was Pirinioak's gift. The island was named "Pirinioetako Oparia" [Gift of the Pyrenees], or "Oparia" [Gift] for short. A settlement was established, and it was named "Oparia Hiria" [City of the Gift].
It was a momentous day. The elder council, inspired by the cooperation of the Euskaldunak, announced there would be even closer ties between the many tribes.

Claims:
During this timeperiod, the Angolan Confederation continued to slowly centralize around the capital of Luanda as it expanded along the Cape of Good Hope. The colony was established by a disgruntled priest of a new sect of the generally accepted religion of the burgeoning culture, who sought out a sanctuary for him and his followers. Carving out a large chunk of the fertile coast of South Africa, it was soon a fully accepted, mostly self governing, province of the Confederation.

Egypt. Land of sand, and water. The desert, and the Nile. Death, and life. Things Aegon knew all too well.
He rode on Balerion the Black Dread, far over the deceptively deadly sand dunes and out of reach by any mortal weapon. The barbarians in the area had been known to lay traps in the sand, covering pits with tan hides. They hid in the holes, waiting to ambush his more heavily armed troops. In the months he had been in this wasteland, he learned that the natives were worthy opponents, fierce in battle and cunning as foxes. Their darker skin seemed to protect them from the sun, and was almost the same color as the dunes themselves.
They were most concentrated along the river they called the Nile... Aegon would have to find a better name for it some day. The Nile seemed to be the only source of fresh water in these lands, aside from a few small ponds in the desert. The natives guarded all of these water sources fiercely, rather than just leave for somewhere that better supported their primitive lifestyle. They would submit or leave, otherwise the fools pay... such as those in the small group Aegon saw a mile away, preparing to ambush the small force of Targaryen soldiers he was flying above.
A mile is hardly any distance for a dragon in flight. The natives could not actually tell when a dragon was above them until its shadow fell upon their forfeited lives. Balerion would fly so high in the sky that he appeared to be a mere black bird. Unfortunately for the Egyptians, a diving dragon is the fastest thing alive. Aegon had Balerion swoop down to attack with a mere tap of his hand. His fierce dragon fell upon the natives quite literally before they knew what hit them: They smelt the fire before they saw the danger.
Half their number lie dead or dying by the dark dragonfire, the rest scattering like the wind. Balerion had no trouble in hunting them down. He ate well, and knew there was much more flesh to feast upon later. After his pet had finished his meal, the Black Dread took the skies once more, the king of Dragonstone upon his back. The pair had grown up together, it was said, but Aegon knew that his companion would outlive him by hundreds of years. His legacy was both the dragon he had tamed, and this empire they would carve: An empire to last the ages. An empire of Fire and Blood.
In addition to Aegon's campaign in Egypt, he sent scouts out to the west. His war effort was stalled slightly, but he would rather take an opportunity to find more trade partners by the horns. Gold was needed more than land, after all. Speaking of gold, 35LP into trade center on Driftmark, 12LP into Driftmark city, 10LP into Dragonstone, and 10LP into King's Landing. Also, accept research agreement with Jerusalem
