Here we go...
1575: State o' the Union..Soild! Well...we're lacking things like an infrastructure...but oh well.
1580: Nappy comes demanding Copper for Crab. I manage to tell him his soilders would rather eat with spices instead.
1585: We got some crazy Great guy who decided he wanted to build something Great. I told him to take a nap in the capital. I take Monty's city and he captulates. The ARMY moves back west.
1590: Saladin comes by demanding we stop trades with Longhorns. As we hate Longhorns...I agree.
1600: *snore*
1605: Well, we decide to finish this great statue...it looks pretty in the Capital.
1610: After alot of blood, sweat, tears, and gold, our pixelated science team has discovered Steel.
1615: *SNORE*
1620: Wang Kon's embassy in our capital suddenly closed. Why?
He took up a broomcloset in Saladin as he became his vassal! That wasn't good.
1625: *having nightmares over that last move by Wang*
1630: Saladin's religious ways are paying dividends. He builds a shrine...
1635: More of the bearded Arab. Now I'm told he's adopted State Property. Which means he has communism. And the Kremlin. Boo.
1640: In comes Steam Power...and I decide to head for rails.
1645: Nothing to note...
1650: The True Faith is spreading naturally...I trade Steel for Rifling with Nappy.
1655: Saladin wants copper for stone. I tell him his Turban his on too tight. It seems Abu Bakr agrees because he decides to defect to us. (We get a GP in Washington.)
And...that's it. Recollections coming up shortly.
