You'll be glad for the swap Strauss, you'll get the turns with cats in Russia.
Quiet turns, mostly troop movements and worker directions. I whipped in the forge @ Turfan as it had grown into unhappy annyhow. Probably best left unwhipped this next set of turns. Started a Coloseum @ Old Sarai, about the only option for more

and market @ New Sarai. Think about whipping both in shortly. Whipped library in Samarquand to speed the border pop, will recover quickly once it has expanded.
CoL (also known as Civil Service, yes really in some parts of the world...) finally in, started Drama for Theatres and more

.
Not a lot else really one or two skirmishes. Lost one Keshik on the inherited turn, thats about it. Moved and consolidated troops in Russia. Cats on the way up there.
Oh and I'd whip the NE in P-Fury as soon as you can, that city will grow like um.... something that grows really really fast.
