Axum Empire Invaded!
Arabia has invaded the Axum Empire! They attacked en-mass into the Area on the Saudi Arabian Penninsula as well as into Egypt, with Significant gains, as the Axum Generals seemed at a loss, finally they managed to reform and hold the Arabians, but much land was lost as well as the Vital port of Alexandria and much of the land in Egypt. The Arabians came forward in a 30 000 man strong army, which basically over ran the defenders.
Casualties: Arabia -5 000 troops -1 ship
Axum Empire - 12 000 - 2 ships
Moldovia at War!
Another of the Unlucky nations this year was Moldovia. With their well prepared armies, and good war plans, the Army of Greece advanced Capturing Land all the way up to Hungary on the Coast, and almost over to Constantinople in the East, but were halted mainly in the center, by the rough terrain and dogged fighting of the few units in the area.
Casualties: Moldovia - 5000 troops
Moldovia - 1 economy
Greece -2 000 troops

Spotlight
War in England.
The Celts, hoping for help, received none, as the French Government seemed mothballed in a sense. But still they attacked, in both the North and South, but were met on all fronts by a seemingly larger better trained and better organized British army. They had massive reserves, and a larger army. Although the Celts made slight gains in the North, the main story was the British retaking most of Wales, and making a spearhead of their own in the North.
Casualties British -5000 Britania - 2000 home guard - 5000 troops
Celts -10 000 troops
