--- World Events ---
The Northern Barbarians, known as the Crimean to the Greeks, begin raiding the northern villages of Greece, testing the strength of the northern armies and defense. The Greeks taking up guard there fight off most of the raids, but some do get through and pillage Greek villages. Meanwhile, in Athens, the Great Tour of Greece takes place with the Greek king going throughout the city meeting with ordinary Greeks. The Serbian Emperor joined him as well. This greatly boosts the peoples moral for the Greek leader.
The Mayans show great scientific skill with the invention of a calendar that is far ahead of its time. To this achievement, the people begin to build a temple to the Sun God, admired by the writers of the calendar. Unfortunately, the Aztecs do not admire them so much.
To Maya
From Azteca
We expect another economic boost as tribute so we do not destroy your weak tribe
Meanwhile, the Aztecs expand rapidly, conquering the minor tribes that surround the great city of Tenochitlan.
Japanese dojos open up all around the island, allowing for the every-day peasant to learn how to fight using the Japanese method. The Kitami lands are also under constant modernization with new mines opening up all around the small country for the bronze material that is very important to the army.
Persian armies begin to raid the border villages of Sumer, plummeting the towns and burning the farms that dot the sides of the river.
Meanwhile, the Sumerians finish the Statue of Ki in Ur, greatly increasing the culture of the city and adding to the nationality that is building throughout Sumer instead of the individual city-states.
The English continue to fall to the Welsh and Scottish, as the combined force meets in Northern England and is now planning to advance through England and burn London in order for the King to recognize their independence. Hundreds of people leave London in an attempt to show the King that they want peace, not war. Again, the Welsh and Scottish offer peace at the [big black lines].
A new nation the Delaware makes their mark along the American coast.
Chinese economy continues to remain in depression [remember, its hard to come out of depression] despite the high trade that is going on with the Japanese. The soldiers of China remain to be underfed and under-trained as they march out into battle against the barbarians and the Jaingsu, and not to mention the better trained Koreans. The Chinese are pushed back in all fronts except for the barbarian front, where they have managed to destroy the barbarians. Meanwhile, the Jiangsu are making progress to Beijing. The Chinese look like a lost cause, but in the east a tribe known as the Zian [the barbarians] have offered a mercenary help, costing one economy level.
Meanwhile, in the deserts of Africa the ancient war of the Ashanti against the Nigerians rage on as the Ashanti push forward into the Nigerian desert, reaching a couple miles outside the capital when they meet stiff resistance by the remainder of the army. However, on the home front Nigeria is faced with two invasions of barbarians who claim were paid by the Nigerians to attack.
An alphabet is created in the Siamese capital of Bangkok, becoming the first in the local area of the Siam.
The Potowotome are able to overwhelm a few earth mounds that were constructed by the Rouge nation [china, you need to call ur nation that?] and push into their lands.
