Joined the Tracker and incidentally found that we apparently tried this once already.
In an interesting inversion the people of Hamburg have interrupted the construction of their library to create military training grounds while the normally reclusive population of Munich has now begun collecting written records to found their own library.

Nobody owns any cattle in Munich, the nearest source is across the Russian border next to Hamburg, which is reason for much strive and conflict between the German and Russian peoples.

Nighthawk and Hawklord can you put a "_" underscore in place of the space in your in-game name

For the tracker? They don´t need that ingame, the issue lies with the player options.

Yeah it doesn't work, but it has nothing to do with the leader names. For some reason it doesnt like having the game name have underscores ("_") in the title. Honestly I dont think the tracker is going to work for this one due to the underscores....
Anyway, sent on to hawklord...

Aww, I did that because Writing in Gunpowder (w/o "_" was created, and deleted by Matt) I'm not sure yet if it can be reopened

Bandits outside of Cordoba!! Bandits are robbing the farmers of Cordoba and causing general mischief. The people of Cordoba are independant and are only part of the Spanish crown by blood. The gap continues to widen with the Cordobans and Isabella now, as the Queen cannot be bothered by the banditry, and so the local city guard authorities of Cordoba are left to deal with the problem. (selected: troops in Cordoba unavailable for 2 turns, lose 5 food)
Meanwhile, Barcelonian city guard archers destroy uncivilized barbarians roaming the tundra north of their city. Barcelonians, being the militaristic type, are more than willing to bring the fight to them!

Yes, the Greek Jews are truly being a pain in our rear ends as well. Unfortunately our closest city is made up of Isabella haters and have taken up Judaism themselves... Issy contemplates what to do about these folks on a daily basis...

Some poor sap got a barbarian Uprising. Not me though.
Breaking news! Germany has always been a hotbed of science and progress, but a new innovation is sure to propagate that status for centuries to come: The Alphabet. Writing has been around for several generations already and you can´t go from Berlin to Munich these days without seeing some kid scribbling on a clay tablet. However, previously every city had its own system and if you actually wanted to read something you had to contact a professional to decipher the wide variation of signs and symbols.
Not anymore though, as the community of Berlin´s highly prestigious library has devised an easy to learn standard set of letters which stand for a certain sound, and not a syllable or word like in older writing systems. Scribes around Germany are already working on implementing the new standard in all areas. It didn´t take long for this great new invention to further understanding of many a field, as sages from Russia, the Netherlands and even Greece visit to gaze upon the collected knowledge of Berlin´s library and in turn share their own wisdom with the prospering city.
Ushering in a new age of increased interest in other cultures, the High Council of Germany has even sent emissaries to Queen Isabella of the far-away land of Spain to organize a personal meeting between her Majesty and esteemed leaders of the council in the Dutch city of Utrecht. Now that no German city is without some sort of library and brave explorers sail where no man has sailed before it is clear that this is becoming an era of advancement and progress like the world has not seen before. Even though rich deposits of Iron have just been discovered not far from Berlin in addition to the already known copper fields it is unlikely that the next generations will see war in light of the recent developments.
Germany shall forever be known as 'Land der Dichter und Denker'!
