The rest of the Japanese mainland finally falls to the Japanese city of Kyoto, thus the first tribe to fully conquer Honshu (I think thats the island). From this, and the now-growing unity of the people, the economy bustles.
The Rhineland is captured by Burgundian spearmen, with high casualties that are still continuing. Nearly a hundred men have been lost in the conquering of the Rhineland, and the occupation. It seems as the whole populace is rising up against Burgundy. A failed trip to islands believed to be in the south brings about a man named Chevelle who tells the king that they have technology of the trireme when they discovered copper, and why not use it for the trip? To add to the difficulties the large empire is having, barbarians from a tribe known as the Monaco attack the southern boundaries of the empire and pillage many villages.
Equal forces meet in Scotland as the Scots push to regain their capital, the English remaining to guard it. However, at the Battle of Blue Mountain, the English are forced out of Edinburgh and the Scots regain control. However, the Scottish allies in Wales do not bode so well. The English capture the capital, and the rest of the kingdom surrenders. However, during the fighting, the English acquire a substance known as copper and have successfully wielded the first weapon of copper in Britain.
Barbary Coast is able to revitalize its economy, due to the increase of spearmen among the borders. The barbarians, however, are getting stronger and stronger. Barbary generals suggest striking the barbarians at their home villages to end the threat.
The Choctaw villages, having no defenses due to their army being defeated in previous battles with Mississippi are raided and burned. Many starve and die due to this, and the whole race is pretty much wiped from the land. The land is conquered by the Mississippians.

After the victory, many join the Sumerian army.
