Isetium

 * Government: Christian Theocracy
 * Dynasty: Tarakis
 * Andros I (1321-1326)
 * Andros II (1326-1334)
 * Andreas I (1334-1339)
 * Andros III (1339-1348)
 * Andros IV (1348-1353)

 * Marius I (1356-1362)
 * Andros V (1362-1366)
 * Dynasty: Orthaeus
 * Koragos I (1366-present)
 * Economy: The end of The Second Campaign has proved fruitful for trade, as trade with the Caldeans and Georgians is now acceptable based off of the absence of the Ilkhanate. Although the plague has made internal trade throughout the Kingdom troublesome, the more merchants have died, the more take their place, only for them to die and for more to take their place. Much of the surviving merchants, particularly along the coast, have secured personal wealth from the death's of their competition.
 * Capital: Alexandria
 * Demographics: 
 * Population: 5,100,000 (63% Egyptian, 15% Arameans, 12% Assyrian, 5% Israelite, 5% Other)
 * Religion: 69% Hellenic Christian, 25% Pagan, 4% Judaism, 2% Zoroastrianism, ~1% Other)
 * Diplomacy:
 * Atouman: Yeah, uh, stop conquering the Byzantines.
 * Adal, Cyrenia, Girba, Ifari, Lybia, Sumali: Want to connect your major cities to the Egyptian-Aethiopian Silk Road? Good merchant and economic opportunities.
 * Papal States: "Although different in ideology, we are all Christians..." writes Koragos I, "... the fact of the matter is that these Atoumans are proving what other nations have known since the collapse of the Roman Empire: that Christian nations are push-overs. Without the forces of the Zoroastrian Empire in this past war against the Ilkhanate, I may not be speaking with you right now." He signs the letter, adding a final note, "... in an effort to regain the reputation as fearsome warriors in the eyes of God, I ask for your support in this new Crusade. It's outcome will likely set the socio-religious landscape for centuries to come, and I fear the end may be near." A diplomat is sent to the Papal States to deliver the message to the Pope himself.
 * War and Conflicts: 
 * The Heretic Crusade (1368-): 
 * Currently on the front lines, Admiral Mehmet decides to take base at Attalea while scouts are sent ahead to scour the territories for useful paths and roadways. The city of Iconium is razed to the ground after looting it for supplies, food, weapons, and most importantly, more loot. While suffering casualties upwards of 3,400, Admiral Mehmet remains in high spirits of the war, seeing it as more of a slight bend than a dent. Regardless, the dead soldiers are buried near the border of Attalea and Isetium.
 * After allocating a garrison of 5,000 in Attalea and setting up small defenses in the now destroyed city of Iconium, Admiral Mehmet splits the remaining forces into groups, himself leading an army of 8,000 onwards to Atouman territory in the east in an effort to meet up with Chaldean forces at OTL Ortaköy. The remaining forces, outside of the garrison, are sent to begin setting up light defenses along the major geographically weak points, roads, and pathways to better prepare for possible invasions or raids by neighboring Arzhamic states.
 * Most of the navy is sent to blockade the heretic Atoumans access to the greater Mediterranean, while also aiding Byzantine ships in the region.
 * Events:
 * End of Paganism:  Although the Neo-Paganist ideology of the Cult of Kaides had slowly diminished in their power, the gradual unification of Hellenic Paganism with Catholicist Cristianity has allowed a large conversion of the base population into what Scholars have referred to historically as Hellenic Christianity. With the rise of Hellenic Christianity, a number of Priests working towards a perfected Egyptian sect has nearly doubled in quick time.
 * Absorption of Coptic Orthodox: In an effort to solidify Hellenic Christianity, Pope-Bishop Joseph II meets with the Coptic Pope-Patriarch John X to discuss possible methods of unification between the two African churches. They meet at the Caesareum of Alexandria, one of the last standing Christian churches in Alexandria following the rise of Cult of Kaides and subsequent persecution of Christians across the territories.
 * Canal of the Pharoahs: After some economic movements, a budget is given to the re-construction and proliferation of the Canal of the Pharoahs, soon to be renamed the Koragos Canal. The canal, planned to be expanded from 100 to 250 feet wide, is expected to conclude it's re-construction and updated applications by 1390.
