My Credentials:

TheSteampunkTotoro: I have been a moderator, NPC maker and Map Maker in a handful of minor map games. I also created the map game Post Mortem: Europa which was rather unsuccessful, But I took the role of acting Admin in the KdM franchise roughly halfway through KdM Chapter II, which ran for a whopping 37 turns!

TheCreator901: The first game I have ever administered was Continent of Darkness: Europe, which was successful until its end. KdM was the second and most successful of my games yet lasting for 27 turns. I created the KdM franchise and ran it until roughly halfway through Chapter II.

Events & Great People:

 * Jesus of Nazareth: He has a long conversation with teachers in Jerusalem where he listens to them and asks questions.
 * Livy: He writes the monumental history of Rome and it's people from the dawn of the city unto it's current days as the grand empire
 * Ovid: He writes the metamorphoses, a 15-book collection of mythological narrative. He is ranked among the three most important poets in Roman history along Virgil and Horace, his work impacting European literature in the eons to come
 * Census of Yang: The Yang state held a census which stated that there were 60 million people under the reign of the Yang dynasty
 * World Population: The world population hits 300 million

NPC Turns:

 * Judea: The region of Judea grows restless and demands autonomy, as they see other regions within Rome with grand autonomy(Also retcon, the holy land is back where it's historically as well)
 * Yin & Tistu: The two nations merge after a second major royal marriage, creating a very interesting cultural mix, old Yin dynasty ways and honor code mix with the early commerce culture of Tistu, creating a mixed ethnic people of Yin and Bonra peoples. The nation is called Tistu, with two capitals, Jikos and Mariu Bìnàn Suǒ(Mariuvoq)
 * Satavahana: Continuing their rivalry with Goriwala they invade Saka, capturing half their lands in a few months long campaign before signing peace
 * Saka: They are invaded by Satavahana, with their army nearly dead within months and the situation looking grim, they're given an offer of either face full annexation or become a vassal of Satavahana, they graciously accept the latter
 * Bactria: Angered by the move by Satavahana, they begin the staining of Satavahanan reputation in the west, severing many mercantile routes and plundering traders systematically, increasing the tension in the region
 * Goriwala: They continue their expansion in the east, fighting small Khmer, Tie and Betmant tribes. Some land is annexed but due to the large supply lines the expedition is halted with only a little under a hundred miles gained
 * Au Lac: They begin preparing a massive army to hold their own against their much larger neighbours, they send traders to the far west, where tales of new warfare techniques and weapons have been heard, bringing back little information from Bactria and Parthia. The Au Lacian army is marched into the Khmer tribal lands, where the small tribal populations and defenders are mostly purged to make way for assimilation and settlement
 * Yatomi: They begin friendly expansion into the northern Ainu lands, offering defense towards attackers in exchange for taxes and allegiance, many tribes accept due to the severe infighting of the Ainu tribes
 * Uwajima: They attack Yatomi, conquering some southern lands, but are pushed back by a counter-assault of 4 500 men, they are nearly pushed back to the old border until the Uwajiman recruits arrive to once again push the line forward. The new army is able to conquer almost half of Yatomi's southern seafront, before making peace by exchanging princesses between the two Shogunates as hostage
 * Okayama & Kagomoto: They form an alliance and gank Hatsushima, crippling the nations navy first and then making a landing in the west, advancing along the southern shore. Okayama invades by land leading glorious battles against the weaker Hatsushiman ranks. Within three months Hatsushima is conquered and the two conquerors draw the new border
 * Daevites: They raid the northern regions of Yang for food and luxury items
 * Jutland: The region which once held the Danskan kingdom slowly degrades from the Latin culture and falls back to the Diziliyan lifestyles thanks to massive trade and visits by their northern and eastern neighbours
 * Ugrians: Their culture emanates to the southern lands, creating new dialects and languages in Northern Baltia and converting them to Ugrians

Player Turns:
Vedena
 * Government: Autonomous province in the Roman Empire, every governor is democratically elected by adult male landowners every 6 years
 * Governor: Lucius the Syracusian (3BC-3AD), Gaius the Roman (3AD-9AD), Yaroslav II (9AD-21AD, elected twice), Yaroslav III (21AD-now)
 * Economy: Based on logging, agriculture, deep mining, and trade.
 * Capital: Lutsk (de-jure), Byliny (de-facto)
 * Demographics:
 * Rural areas: 30800
 * Biggest settlements: 14600. 47.4% live in urban areas.
 * Byliny: 3200
 * Pubin: 1900
 * Curcani: 1300
 * Pravou: 1000
 * Other (population less than 1000): 7200
 * Ethnicities: 40% are Volynians, 24% are Geriosians, 17% are Illyrics, 12% are Romans, 7% are the rest (Greeks, Slavokans, Dacians, Bonra, etc.)
 * Religion: 44% are Roman pagans, 39% are Vedenian pagans, 17% are the rest beliefs (Illyrican, Gerios, Bonra, Dacian, Slavokan pagans)
 * Military: Because of recent economic growth, the relatively strong military has been built
 * Archers: 500
 * Shortswordsmen: 500
 * City guards: 1500
 * Navy: 80 little trade vessels, 30 medium ones.
 * Diplomacy: Our traders have regular trade connections with Tistu, Yin and even Dacian traders.
 * Events:
 * Latinisation: Our culture, which absorbed many traditions from Bonra, Slavokan, Tistu, Dacian, Esceosian, Illyrican, Gerios and especially Ancient Greek cultures, is now embracing latinisation and becomes closer to Rome.
 * Expansion to the north: We started expanding on all sides, but mostly to the northern lands.
 * New Rome: We propose Rome to build 2 huge cities on Bosphorus Strait. Vedenians agree to participate in constructing a city if they will be given a house/land.
 * Connection with the former capital: we have managed to create a relatively safe trade route to our former capital city - Lutsk. Even though it is not as big as it was earlier, the city is still a regional centre and pretty influential, but has to pay huge tributes to Bonra, Slavokan, Latin, Esceosian and Proto-Baltic and Dacian tribes.
 * Features of Vedena:
 * City-states: even though we are a pretty centralised autonomous part of the greater empire, our country is still full of little autonomous cities that sometimes even have their own policies.

Sultanate of Muscat

 * Government: Absolute Monarchy (Sultanate)
 * Sultan: Faisal al-Qazi (B 31 BCE, still alive) (R 11 BCE - Present)
 * Economy: Based around fishing, some agriculture and trading mostly. With the spices from the east we become rich by selling them to nearby peoples. Trading with Uputhara Wansura and Satavahana is a large and essential part of the economy.
 * Capital: Muscat
 * Demographics:
 * Population:
 * Muscat: 5233
 * Ibri: 1561
 * Rural areas (AKA everything else): ~35,150
 * Ethnicities: 98% Omani (if that's a thing, idk a demonym for Muscat), 2% Azd tribes
 * Religion: 100% Folklore and Tribal beliefs
 * Wars and Conflicts (italics: Potential War):
 * War Against Gerrha (and probably Seleucid and Arashena as well)
 * Conscription: We will probably be going to war, so we conscript more people and prepare our armies, which are all sent to the border.
 * Warships: The Gerrhans have not attacked yet, and we don't want to be the ones to start it all since it could be risky. We take this time to produce more warships.
 * Shortswordmen: Shortswords appear to be more useful than Hatchets. They are more expensive, but it's worth it. Thus, we replace the hatchets our hatchetmen use, with shortswords, turning them into shortswordmen.
 * Military: Total of
 * Spearmen: 531
 * Shortswordmen: 252
 * Bowmen: 509
 * City Guards: 225
 * Dromedary Forces: 67
 * Navy:
 * 105 transport ships (can hold around 8-12 men)
 * 75 trade ships
 * 32 warships (galleys pretty much)
 * Although not part of the navy we have 156 fishing ships.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Gerrha: Leave our border.
 * Aynarab and Rhabi: Prepare your armies! The foolish Gerrhans have demanded our city of Ibri and we shall not allow it, we are going to need your help in this potential conflict.
 * Parthia: Your enemy is about to attack us, we could help you, which would benefit us both, do you accept us on your side? The enemy of my enemy is my friend and all that.
 * Events:
 * Order: We suggest (in quite a serious manner, obviously) that most of Aynarab and Rhabi's armies be put on the border with Gerrha, with others defending their own realms or possibly be used for other tactics.
 * Colony of Socotra: We try to maintain it by having people go there with food and other supplies to make sure the settlements there survive.
 * Ideas of Arab Brotherhood: The Arab nations near us have been brought closer to friendship, ideas of a larger brotherhood and potential unifications spark in the minds of both philosophers and regular citizens within our realm.
 * Trade with Satavahana: (Probably) hearing about Bactria's actions, attempting to sever trade routes, we send more trade ships to support them, Bactria cannot harass us in the ocean, since they don't have a coast.

Yang Dynasty
Events:
 * Government: Celestial Monarchy
 * Emperor: Ping (1 BC - 9 AD), Wang Mang (9 AD - 23 AD) (who overthrew Yang temporarily), Guangwu (23 AD-present)
 * Economy: The Yang economy relies on taxing subjects, which are the peasants of China. Many are not satisfied of it even after taxes were cut as a result of appeasing their opinion of the Emperor, yet the Yang Dynasty turns to trading to get their income. They are currently looking towards the west for possible trade openings.
 * Capital: Xi'an (the new capital)
 * Demographics:
 * Population: 60,000,000
 * Xi'an (the new capital): 300,000
 * Shantou: 320,000
 * Luoyang (NOT LUCYANG; check your spelling, I renamed it under Wang Mang): 190,000
 * Beiking: 280,000
 * Haiyan: 190,000
 * Chengdu: 280,000
 * Other cities and settlements: 19,000,000
 * Rural areas: Whatever that's left. I'm not calculating the whole thing.
 * Ethnic Groups: 80% Chinese (regardless of ethnic groups like Han), 5% Daevite, 4% Tocharian, 2% Korean, 9% other
 * Military: 600,000 soldiers and levies. Note that China has one of the largest populations at that time so it makes proper sense to have a large military that spans all over the empire itself.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Expedition to the West: They're aiming for an unknown place, particularly Rome (but they don't know the knowledge of 'Rome' yet)
 * Expedition to the west: A group of Chinese merchants and a small banner of the imperial army is sent over to the west in 1 AD, which they will try to travel to somewhere they have never seen before, maybe even consider trading with them. (I'll bet it's Rome that I'm aiming for)
 * Xin Dynasty: A guy named Wang Mang took over China temporarily, removing the current Yang Emperor immediately. During his reign, he made the empire weaker and allowed the Daevites and Tocharians to break free from the Han Empire, though a small minority group of Daevites in northern Xin Dynasty remained as subjects of the Daevite Empire. Wang Mang also renamed Lucyang to Luoyang because he thinks that Lucyang sounds like a disgusting name for the Yang Dynasty so he made it Luoyang. After Wang Mang died, the Yang Dynasty returned to power and quickly rebuilt its losses from the self-proclaimed Emperor of Xin Dynasty.

Roman Province of Westria

 * Leader: Chief Oleg VII von Schmidt (B 40 BC - D 2 AD) (R 20 BC - 2 AD), Chief Oleg VIII von Schmidt (B 18 BC - D 20 AD) (R 2 AD - 20 AD), Archiducissa Aurelia Desticius (regent and vacant monarch) (B 1 AD - still alive) (R 20 AD - present) Quirinus Desticius (Formely von schmidt) (B 21 AD - still alive) (R 21 AD - present under a regent)
 * Government: The Confedercy is ruled by a chief. Since 20 AD it's ruled by an Archiducissa.

 * Total population: 302,330
 * Religion: Pagan (100%)
 * Ethinicities: 73% Westrian, 25% Gelatins, 2% Escosians.
 * Economy: We are based on agriculture. We start using coins which is minted by the republic as coins is a easier way to buy things then barter.
 * Army: Total of
 * Spearmen: 1,250
 * Shortsword and Hatchetmen: 425
 * Bowmen: 250
 * Cavalry: 157
 * Events:
 * Expansion: We assimilate small areas in today's czech republic
 * Quirinus: Quirinus father died in 20 AD just a few months before Quirinus was born. His mother of roman descent acted as vacant monarch until 21 AD. She is since 21 AD regent for him. Quirinus orignally dynasty name was von Schmidt though his mom didn't like it so she switch it to her own dynasty name Desticius.
 * Diplomacy: Nothing for now

Roman Empire

 * Government:
 * Consuls:
 * (1, Emperor) Augustus Octavian (27 BC to 14 AD)
 * (2) Tiberius (14 AD to Present)
 * Policies:
 * Join Rome, live Roman!: A new policy/doctrine is introduced where outside states can request or be requested to join the Empire.
 * Military: There is approximately 20(+8) legions, each contains 5000 to 6000 legionaries each further divided into cohorts with 500 to 600 men each. There are about 8 auxiliary legions as well (3,000 each) also containing equipment like archers and artillery. The Roman Legions recieved a complete restructure after the start of the  Roman-Hellenic conflicts to solve and improve the Legions on flexibility and adaptability along with equipment. Proletarianisation of the army is already underway to quickly refill lost numbers. The state would also issue standard equipment to all but the veterans (who would be able to afford their own at this time). Each autonomous province has their own legion
 * 100,000 (+40,000) Legionaries
 * 24,000 Auxiliaries
 * Economy: Gold and silver coins are minted around the Republic, with a new coin minted for every new Consul.
 * Demographics
 * Population: +35,000,000
 * Rome (Capital): 150,000
 * Neapolis: 50,000
 * Caralis: 20,000
 * Atvasium: 100,000 (indirect)
 * Other cities: 9,180,000
 * Rural areas: 25,500,000
 * Ethnicity: Remaining latins in the region are exceptionally rare over the past centuries and were held in high regard within the tribal population, sometimes ruling as the regional nobility class. Latin language in the region itself is extinct but names and ethnicity still lives on in pockets. Explanation for nobility is that Latins were employed in elite units that were held in high regard and retired veterans commonly built a nobility status. They were absorbed into the Roman identity, but they make up a lot of the ruling class since their overthrow of the monarchy.
 * 50% Other, 35% Roman 10% Greek, 5% Atlasii.
 * Religion: 20% Cult of Romulus, 80% Other
 * Literacy rate: 5%
 * Events
 * Roman Expansion in Berber: Romans expand southward from Atlas and westward to connect the African lands and exploit possible resources rumored to be south of Algeria.
 * Roman Expansion in Balkans: In order to have better protection the Romans moved northward in the Balkans towards the large river of the danube. Along the way, the Romans also sieged Daekos.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Seleucid Empire: Seeing as you are falling from Parthia, I suggest your portion in Iraq should join us as an Autonomous province to serve as protection against the Parthians.

Events & Great People:

 * Jesus of Nazareth: He commits many miracles and wonders in the land of Judea, teaching of love, compassion and faith, gaining the intrigue of thousands in Judea and the attention of many outside of Judea, especially in Rome. He gathered 12 men to be his disciples who followed him where ever he went to do his miracles or journeyed to preach. During his last week in Jerusalem, he raised Lazarus from the dead, confronted moneychangers and merchants in the temple, and debated with the high priests who questioned Jesus's authority and his claim of being the son of God. He told his disciples about the coming days and that Jerusalem's temple would be destroyed. This angered the high priests who in their agitation planned to have him arrested. One of the disciples, Judas, met with the chief priests and told them how he would deliver Jesus to them. They agreed to pay him 30 pieces of silver in exchange for Jesus. During the last supper he foretells the betrayal, and during that night he was arrested by the Romans, accompanied by Judas in the garden of Gethsemane. He was brought before Pontius Pilate who was a governor appointed by Rome. He found no reason to have him crucified but he bent to the will of the priests and the mobs and sent him to be crucified. Judas admitted he'd betrayed an innocent man and hanged himself. On the cross he was mocked and insulted by Jews, Romans and others who'd been crucified alongside him(except for Dismas). He asked of God why he'd abandoned him, but he was met only with more insults. He cried out one last time and then died. As he passed away the curtain of the temple was torn in half and the earth shook. Those who had mocked and beaten him were silenced by doubt and regret. He was buried, but his grave was empty on the third day. He appeared to his disciples a few times, confirming his resurrection and telling them to spread the word of salvation to the people of the world after which he rose to heaven.
 * Apostles & Christianity: The disciples of Jesus spread the word of salvation, spreading the word in Western Rome. Thousands had become the followers of Jesus, but they were persecuted by the Roman empire. Even though of the heavy pressure of persecution and execution upon them the apostles still spread the word around the Roman empire. The followers of Jesus begin to diverge from the other Jews, becoming Christians
 * Paul the Apostle: He was one of the most notorious persecutors of Christians. When he was on the road to Damascus, where christ spoke to him and he stopped the persecution and became an apostle himself, founding several churches in Syria and Hellenia

NPC Turns:

 * Judea: The region grows even more distressed, with the regional governors ordering persecutions of the followers of Jesus. An increase of executions has ramped up the fear of Roman occupation, which once seemed a solution for their oppression by the Ptolemians/Aegyptians. Many scholars and politicians wish for an autonomic Judea more than ever, with the general populus slowly being freaked out by the Romans. Roughly 3 000 people have been crucified for being followers of Jesus
 * Seleucid Empire(To Rome): No, our empire shall stand, we will not willingly give away our lands
 * Gerrha: They invade Muscat with 4 000 men, quickly occupying Ibri and advancing to Khalil. They send a peace deal to Muscat, proposing this be the new border, if they do not accept, they will continue towards Muscat and more will die. They send reinforcements of 3 000, totaling the new number of defenders as 5 000 along the coast and frontline of the war
 * Rhabi & Aynarab: They mobilize their army but keep most of their forces at home, sending a total of 800 men to help Muscat on the frontline
 * Ma'an: The tribal empire begins to dissolve with the fear of Rome and death of important figures and their successors being incapable. A struggle for power erupts and leaves the region in disarray with tens of different factions all fighting for their own interests
 * Saba: With their northern neighbour fallen to anarchy, they begin an invasion and capture most of Ma'an, stopping at Ulmuj where a peace deal is signed and the few factions left agree to become Vassals and to unify to a new Ma'an
 * Arashena: They cut away from being a vassal of the Seleucids and there are several murders within the elite of Arashena. After the dust settles the new king decides to aid Parthia invade the Seleucids. They invade the region north of Nineveh with 11 000 men. They reach Nineveh in three weeks and siege it and occupy it with the new reinforcements of 9 000.
 * Suraban: They invade Meroese Djibouti, retaking it in a bloody campaign spanning four years with a total of 53 000 dead(counting civilians as well). They establish forts and a trade city to hold the region firmly
 * Goriwala: Instability hits the great nation with the death of a beloved king. His two eldest sons, twins. The stronger twin who was more famous and favored by the people grabbed the west, leaving the nigh forsaken east for his brother, who established Burma
 * Au Lac: They continue their conquest of the Khmers, but leave most of them alive, killing only the warriors and strong men.
 * Xia: They expand to the southern part of their island, unifying the island and bringing civilization to the "barbaric" natives
 * Gojoseon: They're vassalized by Yang
 * Ainu: They expand into Kamchatka
 * Java: They invade Majapahit and take some border towns under tribal control
 * Maya & Vicaotec: They enter a new "endless" war with the Vicaotecs, both continuously sending small raid parties upon each other but no major assaults are performed
 * Apalachee: They raid the Osnerol chiefdom, leaving the Osnerol bitter towards their former friends and neighbours
 * Albion: The Albion tribes of Eire raid Drekisson and Agatha, taking land and riches
 * Tireansmead & Karmet: They continue their war against Sealand. Tireansmead is able to capture much of the less inhabited Northwestern territories, meanwhile Karmet has little success along the shore of the ocean, winning and losing battles equally and gaining little to no land
 * Sealand: They beef up their army and are concentrated on their neighbours

Yang Dynasty

 * Government: Celestial Monarchy
 * Emperor: Guangwu (23 AD-39 AD), Chong (39 AD-present)

 * Population: 63,000,000
 * Xi'an (the new capital): 360,000

 * Ethnic Groups: 85% Chinese (regardless of ethnic groups like Han), 2% Daevite, 1% Tocharian, 2% Korean, 9% other
 * Military: 630,000 soldiers and levies. Note that China has one of the largest populations at that time so it makes proper sense to have a large military that spans all over the empire itself. Naval ships may count up to hundreds of small ships and dozens of large ships.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Rome: Did we found you yet? Do please come to the faraway lands of the east and we'll give you something. Do you have anything else to spare? We don't mean any harm. (Don't ignore us unless the mod says nope)
 * Events:
 * Arriving somewhere in Rome (Sino-Roman contact confirm?): After sending around few expeditions across the steppes (some who never return and perish, others were kidnapped by raiders), one of the first successful Chinese expeditions to the west are finally successful as they reached somewhere around the Black Sea then they try to find civilisation. Few months later, a town is found south of the Roman Empire. Which is part of Rome. The envoys sent by China are meant to be non-violent and are seeking for further trade options and even the suggestion to send a team of Roman envoys to China. (why am I doing this to make contact with Rome, unless you're a mod of course and you say it's fine or not)
 * Emperor Chong (yes me becoming emperor sounds hypocritical): Emperor Guangwu dies on 39 AD. His successor was Emperor Chong (sorry for the self-insert if the mods disagree with it) and he was extremely militaristic. He desired to conquer Yunnan, which is apparently not conquered yet by Yang Dynasty but he wanted to accomplish that. He also wished to trade with the western world which they have never heard of before.
 * Yunnan is Ours: Emperor Chong was dissatisfied of the current borders of Yang (which look partially cancerous of course), so he sent out 50,000 troops to quickly subjugate local tribes, particularly the Burnie ethnic group which they have now feel the burn of Emperor Chong's wrath of conquest as Emperor Chong said in his words.

 * City-states: even though we are a pretty centralised autonomous part of the greater empire, our country is still full of little autonomous cities that sometimes even have their own policies.
 * Latinisation: Our culture, which absorbed many traditions from Bonra, Slavokan, Tistu, Dacian, Esceosian, Illyrican, Gerios and especially Ancient Greek cultures, is now embracing latinisation and becomes closer to Rome.

Events & Great People:

 * Paul the Apostle: He founded more churches in Hellenia. He was arrested in Jerusalem for bringing in Gentiles to a temple and then through a several year long journey he arrives in Rome where he helped build the church of Rome along with Peter the Apostle.

NPC Turns:

 * Aynarab(To Muscat): We accept, we are stronger together(Aynarab becomes a part of Muscat)
 * Seleucid Empire: They retake Ansban and Shep, forming a defensive line there. They push to Central Parthia with 10 000 men, nearly encircling Kathe and Susa.
 * Arashena: While the war rages to the south of them, they're able to take Assur and Morpha with 8 000 men, and attempt a siege of Akkad but are beaten there by the Seleucids and fall back to Morpha
 * Suraban: They continue their war with Meroe occupying their holdings in modern day Eritrea where they found a grand fort, Erota
 * Meroe: The once great ancient power is crumbling, with the deaths of great leaders on the fronts of war and incapable kings, the nation collapses into the Meroese City-States
 * Burma: They expand northward into the Khmer territories, diplomatically and with force, rivaling Au Lac in the competition for the tribal lands. They settle the grand city of Amarapura in the newly taken lands
 * Au Lac: They continue their conquest of the Khmers, but are met with fierce resistance and lose land to the Khmers who've began to unify against the invaders
 * Yatomi: They expand northward with diplomacy, gifts and pledges of protection. After half a century of bitterness towards the Uwajima Shogunate, they declare a surprise war and succeed in taking out the main army with ease, but are plagued by guerrilla fighters who defy the conquerors. Uwajima is annexed to Yatomi. Yatomi becomes Yamato
 * Ainu: They expand further into Kamchatka
 * Esceocians: A tribe of Esceocians invade Lutsk so that they'd be the biggest economical and militaristic power in the hood. They succeed after a five week siege and they drive the Latins west
 * Tistu: They become a cultural oddball, which intrigues thousands of outsiders including Bonra traders, Arashena elites, Dacians and Scythians with their exotic culture of mixed Bonra and(To everyone else than the Tistu this is very strange) Yin ways of life
 * Illyria: The Illyric tribes come together and form the nation of Illyria
 * Tocharvite Confederation: The Confederation collapses and the states of Yarkand(West), Gaoche(Centre) and Xiongnu(East) are formed

Yang Dynasty

 * Military: 700,000 soldiers and levies. Note that China has one of the largest populations at that time so it makes proper sense to have a large military that spans all over the empire itself. Naval ships may count up to hundreds of small ships and dozens of large ships.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Rome: (Yes we want to talk to you because I'd like to see a possible hypothetical contact that may exist in history if not then you wasted a lot of my time then putting useless stuff that is only relevant to my place)
 * Au Lac and Burma: We want to open up trading routes to you. We do not share interest of your rivalry and we will equally benefit you from trading with us.
 * Events:
 * Reconquest of the Tarim Basin: After Wang Mang had deliberately allowed the Daevites and Tocharians to rule their own territory, Emperor Ming, who took over Yang Dynasty on 60 AD shortly after the death of Emperor Chong wanted to fulfil his task of subjugating the Tocharians again and later subjugate the rest of the Daevite population. So he sent out 300,000 men to do the bidding of subjugating Yarkand and Gaoche back into the Yang Empire. They noticed that there's a fierce resistance from the former Tocharite Confederation, but numbers and organised armies of the Yang Dynasty will outmatch nomadic warriors of the west and north.
 * Buddhism: The Silk Road introduced an Indian monk named Jwanahon Hura (If you watch video compilations on Buddhism Hotline or live, you'll see what I mean by the monk's name) and his group of missionaries who went to China and introduce Buddhism in the first century of the Common Era. Buddhism will shape the lives of Chinese people from this century and onward. Early Buddhist schools were open, with some Chinese scholars even admitting conversion. The Emperor of Yang Dynasty however, doesn't approve of this but never commissioned a ban.

 * Events:
 * Colony of Socotra: It is expanded upon along the coastline.
 * Tamreda: The port of Tamreda starts to become a settlement, but it is still more of a village, rather than a town.
 * Disapproval: The recent loss in the Gerrhan War as well as East Ibri being razed has caused the population to disapprove of Faisal al-Qazi. He has now finally died, but the anger has been inherited by the new Sultan: Haddimu. He has stated that he will do everything to fix our problems and that the new union will help us. Of course, this has to be proven as well.

Roman Empire

 * Government:
 * Emperor
 * (2) Tiberius (14 AD to 37 AD)
 * (3) Caligula (37 AD to 41 AD)
 * (4) Claudius (41 AD to 54 AD)
 * (5) Nero (54 AD to 68 AD)
 * (6) Galba (68 AD to 69 AD)
 * (7) Otho (69 to 69)
 * (8) Vitellus (69 to 69)
 * (9) Vespasian (69 to Present)
 * Policies:
 * Join Rome, live Roman!: A new policy/doctrine is introduced where outside states can request or be requested to join the Empire.


 * Military: There is approximately 20(+8) legions, each contains 5000 to 6000 legionaries each further divided into cohorts with 500 to 600 men each. There are about 8 auxiliary legions as well (3,000 each) also containing equipment like archers and artillery. The Roman Legions recieved a complete restructure after the start of the  Roman-Hellenic conflicts to solve and improve the Legions on flexibility and adaptability along with equipment. Proletarianisation of the army is already underway to quickly refill lost numbers. The state would also issue standard equipment to all but the veterans (who would be able to afford their own at this time). Each autonomous province has their own legion
 * 100,000 (+40,000) Legionaries
 * 24,000 Auxiliaries

 * Ethnicity: Remaining latins in the region are exceptionally rare over the past centuries and were held in high regard within the tribal population, sometimes ruling as the regional nobility class. Latin language in the region itself is extinct but names and ethnicity still lives on in pockets. Explanation for nobility is that Latins were employed in elite units that were held in high regard and retired veterans commonly built a nobility status. They were absorbed into the Roman identity, but they make up a lot of the ruling class since their overthrow of the monarchy.

 * Events:
 * Roman Expansion in Berber: Romans expand southward from Atlas and westward to connect the African lands and exploit possible resources rumored to be south of Algeria.
 * Emperors of the First Century: Many emperors so far has came and gone from the Roman Empire. Emperors such as Caligula and Nero were known to be tyrannical emperors building up riches of the capital at expense of the provinces. While the year of the four emperors in 69 AD was result from succession crisis. But through Vespasian, the situation began to stabilize as the Emperor position gained more power from the result of these trials.
 * Roman Invasion of Britain: Under Emperor Claudius' reign, the Roman invasion of Britain started in the 40s AD but was delayed to 50 AD. The Romans landed on Kent with 5 legions and 3 Auxilliaries. They moved through the strongest state in eastern Britain before moving westward to secure the rest of modern England from 50 through 75. (trying to get to historical height by turn 100 to 125)
 * Vedena Path: After accepting to help the Vedenans, the Romans set out to create a way with more safe connection with Lutsk with building of a long line of outposts alongside a much cleaner path.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Yang Dynasty: Upon spotting foreigners arriving in their territory, they have recieved much attention from a gathering crowd in the city/town they arrived in. The local governor Aurelius Felix, upon hearing of distant travelers or diplomats, took charge to meet with these men. The talks and promises of trade and other things has been sent back and forth between the talks.
 * Vedena: Sure

Events & Great People:

 * Tasca: The Albion queen of the Iceni tribe, rises up in revolt to the Romans who raided and pillaged the peacefully surrendering region of Iceni in Sealand in 98 AD, wishing for autonomy and to join Rome, but were faced with pillaging and rape. Tasca(The daughter of Boudicca) brings up a force of 100 000 tribesmen from all over eastern England and burned Camulodonum, Londonium and Anderida. There are heavy losses because of most of the warriors not being armed, fighting with bare hands due to the Romans taking the weapons, but the Iceni pick up weapons from the dead Romans and pillage them from cities and towns
 * The New Testament: Most of the books and letters in the new testament are written and collected into memory in various languages

NPC Turns:

 * Arashena: The army is reinforced, and a new commander, Dzhokhar leads his troops on a grand conquest, crushing the defenses of the Seleucids in the north with his highly aggressive tactics with siege machines and bowmen raining down death on cities and a strong infantry and cavalry to repel counter-attacks. Within a few weeks of the first assault wave Uruk had fallen under his occupation. He returned with his main army to Ur, where he faced the main Seleucid army which had just retaken Kathe and Susa. Dzhokhar left the city of Ur lightly defended, letting the enemy to believe the Arashenan army had been depleted in their rapid conquest, but with the Seleucid army closing in on the city of Ur and many on the gates already, the Arashenan forces came from both west and east, encircling the enemy in volleys of arrows and other projectiles such as heavy boulders and spears. The 28 000 strong Seleucid army perished within a day, with 13 000 fleeing to Elam and Susa, scattering and leaving behind weapons and trophies of war. With this victory Dzhokhar moved onto capture Kathe, Susa and Elam. New reinforcements arrive from the Arashenan core territories, invading the crumbling empire of Parthia, claiming their entire northern shoreline and some western lands.
 * Seleucid Empire: The great nation is crumbling, with tens of thousands dead in recent wars and the loss of their western lands crushing the morale, many refuse to take up arms against the Parthians and Arashenians, wishing to join Arashena to avoid bloodshed, the state is in a confused decay
 * Gerrha: A coup is staged, where a pro-Arashena king is established and an army loyal to the Arashenians, a civil war wages on in Gerrha with the Seleucid loyalists being persecuted and executed
 * Lutsk: The city is conquered by a new Esceocian tribe which slaughtered all the original inhabitants and established a new trade system with it's neighbours. The Roman wall builders arrive late to an already Esceocian conquered Lutsk and are slain on the fields southwest of Lutsk (edited)
 * Munich: They agree to join RAR: Westria because of the menacing Roman empire and a wish to avoid bloodshed. This is looked upon as a bad and treacherous move by other Latin tribes
 * Celts: They conquer land from the Latins, many Celtic tribes join forces with Latin tribes due to fear of Roman expansion
 * Albioner dynasties: The Roman invasion shook all of the Albion dynasties, who'd never seen such a war machine as the Roman empire, the swift fall of Sealand and most of the important cities led to the nations banding together in a shaky alliance to fend off the invaders. The Albioners are all in full retreat, but encouraged by Tasca, they begin counter-attacks, but where there were significant Roman legions they failed and tens of thousands die for only a few hundred Roman legionaires. Some lands are retaken in the east
 * Gerios: They unify into one nation like the Illyrics to be stronger against the expanding Romans
 * Dacians: The culture-group becomes more and more warlike and many young blokes plunder trade routes within the Dacian tribal lands, leaving many traders to be never heard of again
 * Ugrians: The culture-group splits in two, with the Finns being in the west, and the Ugrics in the east.
 * Ugrics: The Ugric tribes expand southward, assimilating the Srubna culture-group
 * Finns: They assimilate more proto-balts, expanding their cultural influence in the region
 * Burma(To Yang): We would be glad to have a blooming trade with you, let the goods flow between our two nations
 * Au Lac(To Yang): We shall not trade with such an evil like you(They're still bitter from a war ages back)

Yang Dynasty

 * Government: Celestial Monarchy
 * Emperor: Zhang (75 AD-88 AD), He (88 AD-present)
 * Economy: The Yang economy relies on taxing subjects, which are the peasants of China. They are currently looking towards the west for possible trade openings, maybe a larger Silk Road. With Romans and the Chinese accepting deals in one of their own settlements, it is hoped that the Silk Road would be expanded on this by the end of the century.
 * Capital: Xi'an
 * Demographics:
 * Population: 73,000,000
 * Xi'an (the new capital): 500,000
 * Shantou (apparently this is still a capital wtf?): 260,000

 * Religion: 84% Chinese religions (this also includes Confucianism), 2% Buddhist, 14% Other (Daevite Blood Gods [that's what I think its supposed to be, since I was the Daevite cultural group in the past] and Tocharian paganism)
 * Military: 730,000 soldiers and levies. Note that China has one of the largest populations at that time so it makes proper sense to have a large military that spans all over the empire itself. Naval ships may count up to hundreds of small ships and dozens of large ships.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Au Lac: Then I demand Hainan if you can't cooperate us. Don't mess with us. We will cross over the strait of Hainan if you refuse. We have manpower the size even larger than your population and technology that has never been introduced to Southeast Asia before.
 * Events:
 * Papermaking: By the end of the century, papermaking was invented by a Chinese person. Although it was already invented roughly 200 to 300 years ago, Cai Lun, the person who is traditionally known to be the inventor of papermaking, made papermaking more efficient than his earlier counterparts and brought what will be known as modern paper. (This is just to clarify the fact that China has invented papermaking, but Cai Lun introduced modern paper instead of papyrus)
 * Roman Empire: Trade with the Roman Empire was established, expanding our trade routes as far into the unknown. Though rare contact makes it difficult for the Yang Dynasty to interact with the Roman Empire, they hope that silk will be profitable to the Yang Dynasty as it could be luxurious to them.
 * Buddhism: The Indian monk, Jwanahon Hura died on 87 AD. Buddhism is slowly becoming widespread to China and this alarmed Emperor He. He decided to impose sanctions to Buddhist teaching and tried to promote Confucianism as the front value than Buddhism. But Buddhism is also influencing the way the Chinese interact and thus Confucianism is also changing as well. It can take time before other religions will influence China as well.

 * Rhabi: You should join our realm as well, you will be autonomous and all the advantages of our trading and influence will be yours as well.
 * Events:
 * Rebuilding of East Ibri: The razed city's reconstruction is funded by the Sultan. After several years it is still at a disadvantage, but in a better position. Fortifications and outposts were built by the border of West Ibri, coming into action when we invade Gerrha once more (See Wars and Conflicts).
 * Influence of Rhabi: After Aynarab was incorporated into the nation, our influence expands more over Rhabi.

 * Join Rome, live Roman!: A new policy/doctrine is introduced where outside states can request or be requested to join the Empire.
 * Military: There is approximately 20(+8) legions, each contains 5000 to 6000 legionaries each further divided into cohorts with 500 to 600 men each. There are about 8 auxiliary legions as well (3,000 each) also containing equipment like archers and artillery. The Roman Legions recieved a complete restructure after the start of the  Roman-Hellenic conflicts to solve and improve the Legions on flexibility and adaptability along with equipment. Proletarianisation of the army is already underway to quickly refill lost numbers.

Explanation for nobility is that Latins were employed in elite units that were held in high regard and retired veterans commonly built a nobility status. They were absorbed into the Roman identity, but they make up a lot of the ruling class since their overthrow of the monarchy.
 * 50% Other, 35% Roman 10% Greek, 5% Atlasii.
 * Religion: 20% Cult of Romulus, 80% Other

NPC Turns:

 * Conflict of Britain: The Romans overpower the under equipped and ill trained soldiers of the Albion tribes. The Southern tribes are overrun after the defeat of Tasca near Londonium. Harkos, Sollener, Karmet and Tireansmead all fall, leading hundreds of thousands fleeing to Mard. With the Romans already knocking on the doors of Mard, tens of thousands leave and flee to the pict territories, pleading to join them and pledge allegiance to the Thanes of the highlands. Mard falls within a year, sending roughly 50 000 people within the time of the entire conflict fleeing and joining Pict tribes or fleeing north to Inbhiri. The Roman war machine had felt no halt after their victory over Tasca, but with the change of terrain, the Romans began to survive never before felt losses in Britain thanks to the brutal ambush and raid strategies of the Picts who'd waged war like this for millenia. The Romans had the technological upper hand with them and a massive pool of reinforcements, they were able to subdue Kaledon and advance further north along the shore, but suffering thousands of losses in their effort to strangle the Picts into submission. A total of 50 000 Roman soldiers die in their battle to claim the hostile lands of Britain

 * Arashena: They finish off the Seleucid Empire with the capture of Persepolis. They conquer parts of Parthia, but see a campaign to claim the region as a waste of resources, they instead focus on consolidating their rule over the Seleucid lands
 * Gerrha: They recover from the civil war as a vassal of Arashena, they cede Ibri to Muscat, but no more of their land
 * Goriwala: Instability rises in the empire, the southern region breaks off and invades Satavahana, conquering Amaravanti, establishing the kingdom of Kalinga
 * Maya: They conquer the Vicaotec empire in a swift assault, and set up the city of Teotihuacan where the old Vicaotec capital once stood
 * Tistu: They lose control of their northernmost regions to Bonra raids and small local revolts
 * Saba: They invade the coastal Meroese city-states, conquering land next to the Roman empire
 * Naruto: They invade Kioku, conquering lands south of the Kioku capital, in revenge for a war centuries ago
 * Gojoseon: The regions of Dongye and Jinhan break off in protest of the weak Gojoseon government who allowed the proud Korean peoples to be vassalised by the big bad bear of Yang

 * Au Lac(To Yang): No, we shall not give Hainan, unless you purchase it from us
 * Rhabi(To Muscat): Hmm, intriguing offer, but we feel better independent(They're stronger than Muscat)
 * Burma & Au Lac(To Malacca): They try to improve relations as well

Yang Dynasty

 * Government: Celestial Monarchy
 * Emperor: He (88 AD-106 AD), Shang (106 AD), An (106 AD-125 AD)
 * Economy: The Yang economy relies on taxing subjects, which are the peasants of China. They are currently looking towards the west for possible trade openings, maybe a larger Silk Road. With Romans and the Chinese accepting deals in one of their own settlements, it is hoped that the Silk Road would be expanded on this by the end of the century.

 * Religion: 84% Chinese religions (this also includes Confucianism), 2% Buddhist, 14% Other (Daevite Blood Gods [that's what I think its supposed to be, since I was the Daevite cultural group in the past] and Tocharian paganism)
 * Military: 790,000 soldiers and levies. Note that China has one of the largest populations at that time so it makes proper sense to have a large military that spans all over the empire itself. Naval ships may count up to hundreds of small ships and dozens of large ships.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Au Lac: Then I declare war on you for eternity (as in we fight until our dying breaths over the control of southernmost Yang) until you give it up or you pay us as a tributary so that we can acknowledge your control over Hainan.
 * Events
 * War for Hainan: Emperor He on 101 AD did not tolerate Au Lac's demand for a bribe over Hainan so they prepared for any defences that may come along in Au Lac. All tactics on a possible scenario, whether be them unprepared or preparing to have a major defence or building up a wall or even already ready for the conquest. Without making the rest of Yang Dynasty falling without order, only 50% of all of Yang's military were sent out into battle against Au Lac. Most of their military ships, carrying flame arrows with their own bows and traction trebuchets (traction trebuchets NOT counterweight trebuchets in medieval Europe and Arab times) made a blockade on Hainan's coastlines. About 150,000 troops are sent into Hainan through the strait, all armed with few rams and ladders over the course of years, making camp in the area. Should they try to make a counterattack in the mainland front, the Chinese prepare defences on northern Vietnam and also used the same blockading tactic and naval superiority to prevent Au Lac from going past the Gulf of Thailand. A lot of soldiers are positioned in northern Vietnam and are ready to invade, should they invade. If they are ready for an invasion, the Yang dynasty also sent out some soldiers into battle to stop them from building up large defences such as a wall potentially.
