Great People & EventsKdM1350-1355A.png

 * World Population: This year had marked off the Black Death as a pandemic in 1351, the World population the last year only dropped from roughly 360 million to 358 million. (although a few pockets may pop up from time to time, some may not even associate with the original plague but may be mistaken for so). Every economy should be in shambles, also causing a global economic meltdown from trade and the Silk Road faded from use by now if not then. The large deaths of farmers and producers may cause massive starvation and break down of society for at least a few years.
 * Horseman of Famine (Part 2): With the end of the widespread plague, many in the Altaic Empire thought they would be safer. However, with the widespread deaths of farmers and producers in Asia had crippled food production, causing a massive famine around Asia. The near lack of people for trade and produce has caused a breakdown of society's current system, with many in the Empire scrambling to accommodate for supply and demand. The economy is in shambles. Although, the Zhuang faction of the Altaics did somehow absorb the Li during their "collapse". However, Joseon has gained ground and the Altaics considers making peace with them.
 * Savior (Final): Sometime in 1351. The savior of Europe, Empress Aurelia of the Holy Roman Empire, contracts the plague. In her last moments, she thought of how she saved Europe from the scourge of the East and the final Horsewoman of Death, Bulijin Khatun. However, she never thought that a plague would spread into Europe many years later after over a decade of rebuilding. She never thought that all of her life's work towards a Europe nearly free from massive death and destruction would be reversed. She never thought that nearly half of the people she knew would pass on in the blink of an eye. "At least I have achieved one goal." She thought, "I wonder where Ember is... I loved her like a mother to a child..." And with that, she dies shortly after, being one of the last victims of the Black Death.
 * Ashen Lion (Part 2): Since the success at the siege of London, many in Frangleterre began to truly believe Artoria II provided a miracle. The King given command part of his army over to her, which resulted in resounding success against the Gaels, thanks to her experiences taught to her and against the Daevites on mainland Europe. This is where she met her life-long friend, River Mordue, sharing the face of Artoria I's daughter. Eventually, Artoria II became the right-hand woman to the king, pushing the Gaels further to the borders of Old England by 1355. Over the years, Artoria II's slowly gained more and more power entrusted to her by the old king. Before he died in 1351 due to a plague, he informally designated her as the heir to the throne. Since his death, Artoria II was declared queen. The problem she faced afterwards were several disgruntled nobles who did not see her legitimately. But with Lady Mordue's help, and Artoria II's excaliber, she had mostly quelled them. But her work is not done, as her gaze is still ever turned north.
 * The Tower of Inverlochy: Uailein MacAoidhein was a nobleman from Inverlochy, revered for his size and stature, a towering man, almost always a head taller than anyone else in a room. He was also a great tactician and soldier, having been the commander in the sackings of Birmingham and Nottingham. He bore a massive Claymore as his weaponAfter the capture of king Balliol, the king who had unified Alba and Eire to Gael had been taken by the Franglish. The Chieftains of the Scottish and Eirish clans were frantic, with the Franglish knocking on their doorstep, with the main army closing in on Caledon. A meeting was held where the next king and commander would be named to defend Gael from the Franglish. The council couldn't decide on anything, as each lord and chief turned down their proposals, not wanting the be held accountable for the defense of the Gaelic peoples. Uailean is said to have denounced all the lords cowards and said that he would lead the armies, eventhough he had no claim as he wasn't a high enough noble. His proposal was accepted thanks to his merits. The Scots and Eirishmen rallied behind his banner and took upon the defense of Gael. In the Battle of the River Esk he was able to cut down Franglish forces crossing the river, halting their advance there. He then turned to guerilla warfare, which had proven so effective against the Romans over a millenia ago. These same tactics still were useful against the slow but large Franglish armies. His presence on the battlefield is said to have incited deep terror in the enemies and anyone who went toe to toe with him met a harrowing end, being buried or burned in two halves.
 * The Reconquista: The Iberian states begin a second holy war campaign against the Aresians. The outbreak of the war is filled with the plague, and the Iberian forces would use this to their advantage. Corpses of those infected with the black death would be used as ammunition for the trebuchets and catapults. Rats were also deployed by specialists as part of experimental biological warfare. Coimbra and Evora, were both bombed with the plague and regular debris, both fighting to the bitter end, until nearly no defenders were left, as they'd either died or fallen ill to the disease, allowing the Leonese and Castilean forces to take the cities from the Andalusians. The cities aren't occupied, until the rat populations had been massacred or captured for further use. The already infected soldiers would carry bodies for the rats to eat to a central square, which was first prepared to light on fire. A ring was constructed around the pile, and once all the rats were feasting, the ring would be set on fire and the hay set on the square, killing all the rats. Cordoba is also sieged, but the city is not yet captured, but Castilean troops are knocking at the door of Sevilla as well. Valcanorese troops siege Garofe, letting it suffer from the plague with no aid coming from the outside thanks to a naval blockade. Garofe is ultimately also captured by the Valcanorese.
 * Gladius Christi: The alliance, Sword of Christ is established by the Iberian nations to unify their peoples and give a better sense of camaradeire to the soldiers fighting against the Andalusians. The alliance is also supposed to represent the faith they are fighting for. Three brothers united in defence of christ.
 * Break up of the alliance: Following the death of Empress Aurelia, the HRE gradually reverts back to pre-Daevite period of governance. Their long-term periodic rule under the Daevites has caused the Teutonic Order and Avaria to no longer feel the need to remain part of the HRE despite being apart of its resistance. due to a fall out of differences, they later announced they leave the HRE sometime after the death of Aurelia. The Westrians may receive their emperor status back
 * Malayan Exodus: Following the arrival of the Plague, many people in the recently-annexed Sukhothai territories in the Malayan Peninsula opted to flee north into the largely unaffected Sukhothai core provinces, rather than the islands of Sumatra or Borneo due to their distance and the lack of healthy sailors and ship crews. This exodus not only further spread the effects of the plague, but also the prevalence of Malayan culture into the region as even the Sukhothai are not spared from the grip of plague-induced death.

NPC Turns

 * Chaldea: They defect from the Pan-Altaic empire, declaring war on the Ilkhanate and working together with Isetium. They capture Hattria.
 * Hellumark: A fledgeling nation of refugees from Vinland is formed in Innumark. Dunchadh Svartgeirrsson was the earl of Eyja-aran (island of bread) ((otl ile d'anticosti) was usurped by his older cousin, and was forced to flee. Having a coarse history with moast earls of Vinland, he decided to flee with his family, loyal men and their families to Innumark, as he spoke the language and saw a possibility to make good friends with them, thanks to having common foes. They get well along with the native tribes and settle the city of Nydòchas in hiding from the Vinlanders. Dunchadh began plotting to strike back at his cousin one day, to retake his earldom of Eyja-aran
 * Amhach: Vinlander expeditions from Beul Munnurinn begin to settle along the Amhach (otl St. Lawrence). Several small forts are established and many thrillseekers and new couples would settle there
 * Svartheim: Eventhough they're suffering from the plague themselves they decide to take advantage of the also struggling and suffering frontier of the Daeva next to them and conquer Kuma and Crimea
 * Ahuric Empire: With the Eufrat and Tigris suffering from massive outbreaks of the plague, the Ahuric armies advance to Inbar, Elam and Morpha. Several districts are burned and mass graves built for the ill

 * Etelämaat: The confederacy of chiefdoms unites with Häme.

The Kingdom of Nagasato

 * Government: Monarchy
 * Kings: 
 * Muramasa II Heihachirō (1321-present)
 * Born: 1293
 * Ruling House: Muramasa
 * Economy: The Nagasatoan Economy primarily consists of fishing, fruits, and precious metals and gems. The currency is based on copper and silver coins. Due to the rapid expansion, the quality of life of even the lowest of peasants has improved, with the poorest able to feed themselves and their families with ease.
 * Main Religion: Shintoism
 * Cities and Demographics:
 * Population: ~198,000
 * Notable Cities:
 * Nagasato City (Capital)
 * Location: Sarangani Bay
 * Nagasato is a city like no other in the Philippines. Carrying the heritage of generations long past, architecture of old is mixed amongst structures of new, with the sea to the south and jungles to the north.
 * Davao (Mining hub)
 * Location: Southern Mindanao
 * Davao was a city created to house the various workers that work in the mines located nearby, which provides for a good majority of the exports from Nagasato
 * Tsuhama
 * Location: Northern Mindanao
 * The location of the old Gambo-ji capital, Tsuhama remains as the stronghold for the province, acting as a "puppet state" of sorts for maintaining control over the region. Also functions similarly to Nagasato City, as trade from the northern Syonan and Japanese islands gets ferried into Tsuhama due to it's closer geographic location than the Nagasatoan cities further south.
 * Cagayan
 * Location: Northern Mindanao
 * Another port city captured during the Nagasatoan Unification of Mindanao. Due to its location, Cagayan is under modifications to becoming one of the hubs for the Nagasatoan navy, with numerous dockyards being produced for housing the growing fleet.
 * Pemagarong
 * Location: Western Mindanao
 * A main trading hub on the Southeast Asian trading route. As such, most, if not all trade funnels through the region, providing the residences of Pemagarong, and all of Nagasato as a whole, a huge source of income, as products and produce gets funneled both into and out of Nagasato as ships come to and from the port city on a daily basis.
 * Souhama City
 * Location: Cebu
 * The old capital of Souhama, like the prior capitals captured, Souhama is kept as the governing hub for the Nagasato-controlled region of Souhama, as well as a means for trading routes from their ally further north to pass through.
 * Wars and Conflicts
 * Food Shortages: Due to a shortage of food, it soon became necessary for Nagasato to find land to grow food on. As such, exploration vessels are sent south-east, based on rumors of an untouched land. The goal with these vessels is to find
 * Armed Forces
 * Army: 5%
 * Currently: 10,000
 * Deployed units: None
 * 400 Heavy Breakthrough Elite Infantry
 * 3,400 Light Infiltration Marines
 * 500 Light Mixed Cavalry
 * 6,700 Naval personnel
 * Troops in-”reserve”:
 * 250 Homeland Security Infantry (Military Police)
 * Note that most of the Nagasatoan civilians are also capable to defend themselves, though in most situations, will be outclassed by any well-trained army.
 * Navy: 221 Ships
 * RNFS Yamamoto-class Oceanic Battlecruiser Yamamoto
 * Crew: 70
 * 5 Yamamoto-class Oceanic Battlecruisers
 * Crew: 70
 * 47 Pagong-kai-class Oceanic Cruisers
 * Crew: 50
 * 35 Dātsu-class Oceanic Interceptors
 * Crew: 40
 * 63 Balangays (Lightly armed)
 * Crew: 12
 * 55 Retrofitted Paraws (Lightly armed)
 * Crew: 5
 * 100 Oceanic Transport Vessels
 * Research and Development:
 * Danger Pylons: More research and development is put towards the “aquatic rockets”. While progress is slow, there is enough potential to keep the product going. That being said, an end is near, barely visible on the horizon.
 * “Rocket” Boats: As efforts fall through, ideas are drafted for the design of a new ship; one that has the speed of a balangay without the instability issues they also have.
 * Subarashi Kulog Taihou MkI: The successor to the Kulog Taihou. In addition to increasing the barrel size (both in length and barrel diameter), it also features a primitive breech loading mechanism, allowing the cannon to be loaded from the rear. In all, this jump in cannon technology allows the Nagasatoan ships to maintain a healthy fighting chance against neighboring nations (if things turn sour, though this is not expected for a while)
 * Manligaw-class Multi-purpose Exploration Vessels: Based on the design of the Pagong-kai class of ship, the Manligaw-class of ships was designed with exploration in mind, sacrificing half of the ship’s armaments to accomodate for prolonged time at sea. Essentially, this class of ship is both a transport and a war vessel, though only armed well enough to defend itself from everything except an enemy fleet.
 * Reptilian Growth: Continued breeding of the filipino monitor lizard has caused the species to grow in size, through decades, if not centuries will be required for the lizards to grow even larger.
 * Production:
 * 10 Manligaw-class Multi-purpose Exploration Vessels
 * Diplomacy:
 * Requests for food are sent to neighboring nations
 * Events:
 * Journey to the East: The exploration vessels make their way south, hopping from island to island as they go, trading with the locals they meet along the way towards the island of Papua.

The Gerrhan colony Ifriqiyah would eventually end up part of Al-Sumali, which gradually became known as just Sumali. A culture mix of Somali and Arabic, the Sultanate has been a notable part in the trade across the Indian Ocean and was affected by the plague, albeit not so much as Europe and Asia.

 * , the mainland is dominated by various fuedal lords all around the rural areas, while the cities function a bit more stably, however this factionalism means that there can only be one . ..
 * Unification - In this anarchy, a certain man who was said to be blessed by the Holy Spirit to kick the popes back in place starts to gather popular support in the countryside as he starts defeating local lords, and he plans on restoring the papacy back to it's original non-corrupt state.

Roman Republic of Vedenia

 * Government: Vedenia is a Republic.
 * Caesar (Leader of the Council): Tycho Fuscinus (1346-nowadays). Elected by adult male landowners.
 * Parliament: the Council with no actual factions present.
 * Royal Families: although de-jure Vedenia is a republic, de-facto it is an oligarchy controlled by a few biggest families who battle over the dominance in Vedenia. On the other hand, there is still quite a high social mobility and sometimes even the poorest become the richest.
 * Economy: mostly based on logging, agriculture, and trade.
 * Trade unions: the traders of Lutsk, L'viv, Chernobyl, Minsk and other cities run merchant guilds to secure a better position in the local environment and promote trade across all the regions of Vedenia.
 * New coinage: since the new people changed the order, a new coinage system, similar to the one in the ancient Roman empire, has been implemented.
 * Population boom: since the Plague is over and new territories are being discovered and settled, a real population boom is happening. More children are born and fewer people die.
 * Capitals: Lutsk, Chernobyl, and Minsk
 * Demographics (including occupied territories): 1'635k people
 * Rural areas:~1470k.
 * Urban areas: 165k; 10% live in urban areas.
 * Lutsk (and the nearest territories across it): 80k.

 * Army size: ~30'000 (at high expense): 5'000 are sent to battle the Golden Horde, 20'000 are sent to battle Lithuania.
 * Events:
 * Local antique: the Renaissance continues developing and changing. The use of wood as the main material and rise of sculpture are still present, but the crimson colours of the former times are long gone. Nowadays, more focus is put on combining the local folklore symbols with classical antique aesthetics using wood and lumber as the main source material.
 * Third Rome (electric boogaloo): We are the descendants of Rome and it is our destiny to build a new Rome on the new lands, as our founding fathers originally intended. Lutsk will be the Third Rome again and this idea will not fail miserably as it did back then. We should unite everyone under the same banner, under the banner of Senātus Populusque Rōmānus.
 * Minsk and new Chernobyl: the newly acquired territories of Chernihiv and Volyn' have never been densely populated and were lucky not to be hit heavily by the Plague. A lot of Vedenian Romans moved to the northern insulated world. In the centre of this region a new city emerged - Minsk. Soon it was proclaimed to be the third (north) capital of Vedena - as an addition to the original capital (Lutsk), and eastern capital (Chernobyl). What's more, the old city of Chernobyl has been repopulated by the Roman colonists and now operates as the eastern capital of Vedenia once again.

 * We are Emperor again: After the death of his father's second cousin Empress Aurelia Johannes VI has been chosen as the successor of the Emperor titel which is very prestigeous. Now there have been talks to make a statue of Empress Aurelia and Empress Nera both which are considered national heros among the Westrian population. Though building those won't happen until the plague have left our lands.
 * Diplomacy:

Zhuang:
Government: Absolute Monarchy
 * Emperor:, Toghon Temur (Huizong) Khan (age 26)
 * Dynasty: Borjigin-Xie
 * Parliament: Nonexistent

Alliances: Altaic Empire

Economy: The Economy is mainly agriculture based, with industries such as silk farming, ceramics, paper making, and tea growing all being present. Zhuhai, Zhoushan and Fuzhou are all major trade centers, along with Xiangdu, Wuhan, and Chengdu in the interior. The Plague renders much of the population base useless, resulting in economic and societal collapse. Oh well.

Capital: Xiangdu

Administration: 20 different Circuits (Lu) governed by a council of Taishous (Great Administrator). Every Jun is divided into prefectures (Zhou), which in turn are divided into urban counties (Fu) and Rural counties (Xian). Most prefectures are only composed of 3-6 counties. In border regions in Manchuria and Mongolia, we instead divide the land into provinces (Shen), which have no smaller administrative divisions under them.

The Government is structured into a system of bureaus and offices, with the Emperor at the government’s head. The system is meritocratic, with exams determining which candidates are given which position. The military and the central government are not separated, with The Emperor at the head of both. The Emperor, or his senior commanders are to always lead campaigns, to ensure unity of command. The Cabinet is made of 12 Officials (they also serve as his advisers), who oversee their respective bureaus or offices. A universal tax system, in which villages must submit 15% of their yields (in the form of the crops themselves or as money) to their commandery government. This is used to support the military and any infrastructural development.

Kingdom of Lustria | 'The Eternal Kingdom of the Lizard Gods'

 * Government: Centralised tribal monarchy
 * Great Chief / Mortal Bearer of the Lizard Gods:
 * K'oroka ([F], 1199-1246, r. 1222-1246)
 * Moszar ([M], 1214-1258, r. 1246-1258)
 * Urchannk ([M], 1230-1284, r. 1258-1284)
 * Azarkel ([F], 1255-1303, r. 1284-1303)
 * Oroku ([F], 1280-1347, r. 1303-1347)
 * Krokezal ([M], b. 1320, r. 1347)
 * Urgoka ([F], b. 1302, r. 1347)
 * Heirs and Pretenders:
 * Loze'gorn ([M], b. 1331, heir)
 * Krokezal * ([M], b. 1320, pretender)
 * (not related) Religious Leader of Krokanism / The Messenger to Kroak:
 * Rhok'sk ([M] 1284-1328, r. c. 1300s-1328)
 * Omako ([M] 1280-1352, r. 1331-1352)
 * Krokezal ([M], b. 1320, r. 1352)
 * Dynasty: Urchannkian (est. 1275)
 * Capital: Amekrog
 * Economy: The 1340s is the peak of the golden age of the Lustrian Kingdom. Although there is a brief contact between Lustria and Atlantis back in the century, as it turns out, they would lose contact right after the civil war. It turns out that anything related to Atlantis or at least most of it, has been fabricated by Rhok'sk and some of his followers. Although it is true that the former half of 14th century showed the most growth, their trade is more with the Arawak and the Tremembe peoples than Atlanteans. However, due to huge floods in the 1340s, the current state of the economy had collapsed on itself, with boats, even these sailships being destroyed entirely and forgotten. Along with these mysterious cult killings, possibly initiated by Khorne followers, which killed much of the Lustrian merchants making frequent trade with them, the nobles and priests of the kingdom are not pleased. Economy could be expected to recover, but not as the Krokanists have thought or even the Khorne cultists.
 * Demographics:
 * Population: 53 200
 * Amekrog: 1 600
 * Osbme: 300
 * Koos'en: 350
 * Eztekol: 150
 * Sal'tcet: 80
 * Os'kel: 80
 * Gkor: 170
 * Oppoks'ren: 110
 * Yok: 120
 * Mur'lok: 250
 * Roseg: 50
 * Araswel: 70
 * Sar'gel: 50
 * Rest is just rural or other villages
 * Religion: 48% Lustrian folk religion, 3% Tupi folk religion, 1% Arawak folk religion, 36% Krokanist (a 'reformed' Lustrian religion with a more centralised belief system, primarily in eastern Lustria, Amekrogia), 16% Cult of Khrone (primarily in western Lustria, Khorn'kor)
 * Culture/Ethnicity: 94% Lustrian, 3% Tupi, 3% Arawak
 * Military: Since Urgoka assumed the rule of the Lustrian Kingdom as the Mortal Bearer, the military has changed a lot. The so-called elite soldiers, the Lizard Warriors are now being decentralised and much harsh training is also being applied to other soldiers to boost their experiences. Encouragement into the military for Khorne cultists have led to some recovery of the military after some of the soldiers that were suspected to be believers of the Krokanist faith, a reformed part of the Lustrian faith, were all killed off mysteriously in the 1340s. This would slowly lead to infiltration.
 * Army: (number clamped down by cultist massacre)
 * 50 'Lizard Warriors' (clubmen with wooden with 'sparsely metallic' shields)
 * 200 'Rainforest Warriors' (spearmen)
 * 150 'Temple Guards' (axemen)
 * 150 'Bowed Protectors' (archers)
 * 22 000 fit men that could be trained into being warriors or hunters
 * Navy:
 * 500 canoes and rafts
 * 120 trading canoes
 * Diplomacy:
 * Tupi Tribes: Trade is being encouraged again under the rule of Urgoka on the Tupi tribes, so those in Amekrogia should revive the Amazon river trade after being reduced under Mortal Bearer Oroku's rule.
 * Arawak Tribes: Expansion continues into their territory, although Lustrian scouts found tribes, alongside with the Permembe people.
 * Events:
 * Normalisation: Under the reign of Urgoka, she would build more shrines and temples to the old Lustrian gods to 'keep the Khorne followers' away, but also around that time, the first major Khorne shrine is being built in the western part of Lustria, which is expected to be done by 1370. This temple would be known as the Blood Shrine for Khorne and has started construction since 1348. However, in consequence of Urgoka's rule, after the death of the last of the scouts and founders of the Krokanist faith, her brother Krokezal took the role of being the messenger to Kroak and still continued to practice that reformed sect. Their faith continues to grow and outpace the Khorne cultists' own growth, which only had its enjoyed growth in the west, where towns begin to somewhat grow. (I rushed this to get this in and that I have no idea of what to do next after)
 * Religious Book of the Lustrian Faith: Delays has been observed due to these events happening above. Some, if not all, of the inscribers were killed by Khorne cultists, which only delayed this from finishing. Only parts were done, mostly creationist stories and stories of the 'eternal past', with a lack of description of some other Lizard Gods. It is now expected to be done by the 1370s-1380s rather than the next decade.

Empire of Hiraga-koku:

 * Government: Absolute monarchy
 * Koshaku: Yamazaki Shohei (r. 1287 - 1321), Yoshikage Kira (r. 1321 - 1342), Anjuro Katagiri (r. 1342 - present, declared self as emperor)
 * Parliament: None
 * Economy: The Senshu economy is highly prosperous due to trade with foreign nations such as Li, Rinashima, and Brunei. Main exports include wood, spice, fish, cloth, betel nuts, kapok cotton, beeswax, tortoise shell, and gold, among other things. Agriculture and fishing (duh) make up a good amount of the economy as well.
 * Capital: Morioh
 * Demographics:
 * Population: 137,000 (68% Syonanese (Tagalogs), 13% Bisaya-jin (Visayans), 7% Bikorano (Bicolanos), 5% Kanpanpanga-jin (Kampampangans), 4% Asinan-jin (Pangasinanese), 3% other)
 * Religion: 96% Buddhist, 3% native religions, 1% Xianist (from Chinese diaspora)
 * Wars and Conflicts:
 * Invasion of Ruzon-koku: The entire Senshu army marches to siege Keishi, the last Ruzonese stronghold.
 * Military: 6,900 manpower total
 * Army: 4,300 soldiers
 * Navy: 2,600 sailors (100 ships total)
 * Diplomacy:
 * Li: Could you help us siege Keishi?
 * Rinashima: Could you help us siege Keishi?
 * Events:
 * Diamond is Unbreakable (pt 2): The Moriōh no Kyōdai grows in size, with more anti-Anjuro dissidents joining. Meanwhile, the number of pro-Anjuro officials getting assassinated continues to grow, with some even getting brutally tortured. Anjuro places a bounty on any Kyōdai member's head, especially Josuke, however this isn't very effective...
 * Blasphemy!: After the conquest of Ruzon, Anjuro declares the Empire of Hiraga-koku (name derived from the Syonanese word for "north"), shedding the republic label. This made many people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.
 * Hatsune-files (pt. 2): Hatsune Miku produces some good works during this time, including a simple poem reflecting on everyday life in the suburbs of Morioh, but what really makes her famous is her play based on Jiang Chi's erotic novel revolving around a threesome between Bulijin, Ojirou, and Kaguya.
 * Monitor Lizards: The Nagasatoan attempts to breed and domesticate monitor lizards begin occurring in Hiraga as well.
 * Shipbuilding: More ships are built for the navy in anticipation for the extra manpower from the conquest of Ruzon.

Great People & EventsKdM1355-1360A.png

 * Ashen Lion (Part 3): In 1355, realizing that upcoming battles will be hardfought after taking Caledon, Artoria II herself called upon any volunteers to join her. Many answered her call, with elite knights from the Roundtable leading and fighting on the frontlines to victory. By 1357, it was the year of the turning point of a supposedly perpetual war that was fought for many generations. After the fall of Glasgow to the Franglish in early 1357, Uailein MacAoidhein and King David Wallace narrowly avoids Artoria II's forces and flees to Camlann (OTL Salisbury Plains) for a final showdown before their forces try to flee to Eire.
 * Gallóglaigh: With the Franglish forces closing in on Glasgow, the Gallóglaigh, or Gallowglasses are called to battle by Uailean MacAoidhein. These frightening and lumbering elite soldiers, toughened by their harsh lives and brutal training are led by Eòin Kirkmuir, a man who almost stands as tall as Uailean himself. A trusted and long lived friend of his. These soldiers, counting in roughly over a thousand would harass and stomp on weakened links of the Franglish army during their advance from Dunham to Caledon and from there to Glasgow, where Eòin is promoted to a general in the Gaelic army.
 * Horseman of Famine (Part 3): The notorious duo the Altaic Empire had stood for has mostly kept the peace for a while. With Taihou Khatun's brains and knack for tinkering with things has driven some suspicion in the Empire, but in reality she just like tempering tools and making new ones (such as a double crossbow she had crafted with the help of her husband Dogar Khan). She was the brains, while her husband was the brawn.  Dogar was the military face that kept the peace. With millions of troops still at his disposal, his grip on the Empire was unified, but the global famine and plague has crippled the Empire's full capabilities.  Despite this, fronts on Europe has been held but generally became stalemates full of decades long skirmishes.  The earliest cracks are beginning to form, but not enough for the dam to burst for decades at most.
 * The Mercy Given Unto Us: A decade ridden with disease, fire, death and terror had shaken the continent to it's core, the entire known world, brought to it's knees by this mysterious disease. A third of the population of Europe, gone, same for Northern Africa and the Middle-East: The world would not be the same. Of the 469 Million people that was on Earth before the plague, only 330 Million of the world population remained. With Major cities like Paris, Berlin, Rome and Constantinople nearly entirely depopulated by the pestilence, hope had nearly faded. With implementations of quarantines and burning the infected, the plague had seemed to pass, as children no longer collapsed from necrosis or buboes no longer grew. This scarred the old world. Even this hope that emerged from the end of all the deaths, wasn't satisfying to all. Many soldiers, who hadn't contracted the plague there would come home to see their home town or village burnt to the ground and their families long since scorched to the bones. Many who weren't soldiers also saw this happen to them, as those who miraculously didn't contract the disease would watch as their wives, husbands or children were eaten alive by the greath death. Sudden outbursts of the plague would still occur, but the depopulation of the world had helped slow and let the disease die down in most areas of Europe, Asia and Northern Africa. Cats also became common house animals to kill rats, and the Pope removed the claim of cats being demons or hellspawn and praised them, even taking dozens of them to the Vatican to be his rodent guardians and as pets. The Great Death was now mainly over
 * The Reconquista: Cordoba is sieged after the capturing of Sevilla. Valcanorese forces siege Granada and fortify the regions around it to defend better against reinforcements. Plague ridden corpses are catapulted into both cities to weaken them. Valcanor also sends reinforcements to Leon and together recapture Braga, Portucale and Almerida, closing in on Coimbra again. The Aresians are on the defensive with massive losses thanks to the plague and the blitzkrieg operated by the Gladius Christi
 * Free Cities in the Holy Roman Empire: In the aftermath of the Daevite invasion and Plague, the Holy Roman Empire would undergo a period of turbulence and slight disorder. On some occasions, this was offset by the Emperor granting Free City status to a few lucky cities for fiscal reasons, granting the city magistrates the duties of administration and justice normally overseen by a monarch. Such entities included Aachen, Cologne, Frankfurt, Lübeck and Ravensburg, known to be the few effectively republican states in the Holy Roman Empire.
 * Huolongjin: The Chinese text Huolongjing by Jiao Yu describes fire lances, fire arrows (rockets), rocket launchers, land mines, naval mines, bombards, cannons, and hollow cast iron cannonballs filled with gunpowder, and their use to set ablaze enemy camps.
 * The Hansa: With the black death dying out in northern europe, trade begins to flourish again, but quarantines become mandatory in case of a sick sailor and total inspection of goods and the ship are also made mandatory by the Hanseatic league. This new trading union is born in Köslin, and many other cities join it, such as Burgenbrao, Lubeck, Heineg, Danzig and many others. Many cities especially in Scandinavia are skeptical of the union, because of their trauma from getting the plague from the Vesnians or other HRE members through trade
 * The Maimed Men: The Saxonese poet Torsten Krüger writes many poems inspired by the wake of devastation, first brought by the Daevite wars and then by the plague. The Poems either tell the sorrowful tales of what he had himself witnessed at the fronts or of other men, who'd lost all and told him about their stories and losses. His greatest anthology, "The Maimed Men" or originally "die verstümmelten Männer" is about his own experiences of burning his friends or fearing the end of the world. There are also a collection of dialogues between the author and death as a figure. His works are without exception extremely pessimistic and capture the spirit of the middle-14th century exceptionally well.
 * The Aftermath: With such massive loss of life occuring in most countries, many rebellious states would rise up, as emergency governments were instated in isolated regions or coups occured. The Duchy of Krakov and the monarchy of Karpatya defect from Escosia. A cluster of independent cities revolt from Dryzalsyn to Allenstein, and the survivors from the razing of Eltbyrg form their own state in the ruins of the region. Southwestern Vedena also cedes, as with contact being lost to Lutsk and the major cities a coup occured, creating the state of Syd-Vedena. Vilmnatz also rebels from Svartheim and the Yintsu insurgency begins in Crimea. Sicily also becomes independent. Knossos also becomes independent but is reclaimed by the Venetians after almost 90% of the islands population perished.
 * Plague Bird Boys: With the onset of the Plague in most of the Old World has pretty much passed (save for a few pockets), measures were taken to try and combat the disease in the future. Among some of them was the advancement in medical technology, the cutting edge developments derived directly from Asclepius himself, or so they say. Plague doctors became a common sight in European towns, with their distinct beak-like masks containing scented herbs and full body garb. However, they are not so effective in curing the plague, despite very few documented cases of doctors falling ill. In Asia, similar measures were taken to try and cure the plague, falling back onto traditional methods such as acupuncture, but no substantial progress would be made. The Arzhamic world actually encouraged people to accept death from the Plague as a means of ensuring their passage into heaven, as the outbreak must be a sign from god, however what that sign may be still remains debated among whatever Arzhamic scholars that remain.

Roman Republic of Vedenia
Events:

 * Caesar (Leader of the Council): Tycho Fuscinus (1346-nowadays). Elected by adult male landowners.
 * Parliament: the Council with no actual factions present.
 * Royal Families: although de-jure Vedenia is a republic, de-facto it is an oligarchy controlled by a few biggest families who battle over the dominance in Vedenia. On the other hand, there is still quite a high social mobility and sometimes even the poorest become the richest.
 * Economy: mostly based on logging, agriculture, and trade.
 * Trade unions: the traders of Lutsk, Chernobyl, Minsk and other cities run merchant guilds to secure a better position in the local environment and promote trade across all the regions of Vedenia.

The use of wood as the main material and rise of sculpture are still present, but the crimson colours of the former times are long gone. Nowadays, more focus is put on combining the local folklore symbols with classical antique aesthetics using wood and lumber as the main source material.
 * Third Rome and betrayal of the south (electric boogaloo): When the rats from L'viv fooled us, it became clear for us: we are not the direct descendants of Rome and it was bold of us to assume so. However, the one fact remains true: Rome is civilisation, and it is our destiny to spread civilisation across the lands we were all born in.

Zhuang Dynasty (Definitely stable, hehheh)
Government: Absolute Monarchy Economy: The Economy is mainly agriculture based, with industries such as silk farming, ceramics, paper making, and tea growing all being present. Zhuhai, Zhoushan and Fuzhou are all major trade centers, along with Xiangdu, Wuhan, and Chengdu in the interior. The Plague renders much of the population base useless, resulting in economic and societal collapse. Oh well.
 * Emperor:, Toghon Temur (Huizong) Khan (age 26)
 * Dynasty: Borjigin-Xie

Capital: Xiangdu

Administration: 21 different Circuits (Lu) governed by Taishous (Great Administrator). Every Jun is divided into prefectures (Zhou), which in turn are divided into urban counties (Fu) and Rural counties (Xian). Most prefectures are only composed of 3-6 counties. In border regions in Manchuria and Mongolia, we instead divide the land into provinces (Shen), which have no smaller administrative divisions under them.

The Government is structured into a system of bureaus and offices, with the Emperor at the government’s head. The system is meritocratic, with exams determining which candidates are given which position. The military and the central government are not separated, with The Emperor at the head of both.

A universal tax system, in which villages must submit 15% of their yields (in the form of the crops themselves or as money) to their commandery government. This is used to support the military and any infrastructural development.

 * Strife in Manchuria Sibuci, Chieftain of the prominent clan Omo, rallies numerous Jurchen Clans to attack Korea, and reclaim the cities of Haeolbin, Jangchun, Taehyung, and Simyang, which were part of the Tungusic heartland many years ago. Anti-Korean sentiment soars in Manchuria, culminating in the Hulun Massacre, conducted by angry Khitans and Jurchens, where 50 ethnic Koreans were brutally murdered. Ethnic Tensions between Koreans and the natives of Manchuria have existed for years, ever since the Daevites gave them priority.
 * Eskos Cat, the meow strikes back: Many people begin owning cats, especially Eskos Cats, due to their ability to yeet funky rats into the abyss.
 * 4 Nations, 1 Empire: Public support for Dogar Khan and Taihou Khatun falls, due to them ignoring the request for a peace with Joseon. This resentment of the Altaic government is most apparent in Mongolia, where the Mongols are still salty about their submission to the Pan-Altaics.
 * New Cities: Köke Qota (Hohhot) and Bugutu (Baotou) become relavent around this time (Koke Qota is to be represented with the large city marker, while Bugutu is to be represented with the small city marker)
 * Medical Stuff: A theory about diseases comes into being, where disease was carried by things that made air smell bad (because corpses smell bad, and people who touch corpses usually get infected). If an animal breathes in the infected air, then it absorbs the disease-causing particles into it’s flesh, and becomes sick. Once they die, the particles escape, making the air around the corpses smell bad, and further spreading the disease. Thus, many people place insense around their homes, believing that it’ll stop the air from reaching them. A more practical measure is burning the dead. This practice is rooted in the belief that extreme heat cleanses the flesh of impurities (because cooking fish and chicken make you less likely to die). Burning corpses also don’t smell the same as normal corpses, which reinforces this belief.
 * Joseon War (Rush J): Lead by Sibuci, 50,000 Horsemen (Many of whom are mounted archers) and 15,000 infantry (some of whom have gunpowder weapons) pour into Tongli, Jangchun, and Haeolbin. After yoinking Tongli and Jangchun, they rush into Simyang. Meanwhile, we get our shit together and send 30,000 men to Chengde. 

Kingdom of Lustria | 'The Eternal Kingdom of the Lizard Gods'

 * Government: Centralised tribal monarchy
 * Great Chief / Mortal Bearer of the Lizard Gods:
 * K'oroka ([F], 1199-1246, r. 1222-1246)
 * Moszar ([M], 1214-1258, r. 1246-1258)
 * Urchannk ([M], 1230-1284, r. 1258-1284)
 * Azarkel ([F], 1255-1303, r. 1284-1303)
 * Oroku ([F], 1280-1347, r. 1303-1347)
 * Krokezal ([M], b. 1320, r. 1347)
 * Urgoka ([F], b. 1302, r. 1347)
 * Heirs and Pretenders:
 * Loze'gorn ([M], b. 1331, heir)
 * Krokezal * ([M], b. 1320, pretender)
 * (not related) Religious Leader of Krokanism / The Messenger to Kroak:
 * Rhok'sk ([M] 1284-1328, r. c. 1300s-1328)
 * Omako ([M] 1280-1352, r. 1331-1352)
 * Krokezal ([M], b. 1320, r. 1352)
 * Dynasty: Urchannkian (est. 1275)
 * Capital: Amekrog
 * Economy: The 1340s is the peak of the golden age of the Lustrian Kingdom. Although there is a brief contact between Lustria and Atlantis back in the century, as it turns out, they would lose contact right after the civil war. It turns out that anything related to Atlantis or at least most of it, has been fabricated by Rhok'sk and some of his followers. Although it is true that the former half of 14th century showed the most growth, their trade is more with the Arawak and the Tremembe peoples than Atlanteans. However, due to huge floods in the 1340s, the current state of the economy had collapsed on itself, with boats, even these sailships being destroyed entirely and forgotten. Along with these mysterious cult killings, possibly initiated by Khorne followers, which killed much of the Lustrian merchants making frequent trade with them, the nobles and priests of the kingdom are not pleased. Economy could be expected to recover, but not as the Krokanists have thought or even the Khorne cultists.
 * Demographics:
 * Population: 56 800
 * Amekrog: 1 700
 * Osbme: 300
 * Koos'en: 350
 * Eztekol: 150
 * Sal'tcet: 80
 * Os'kel: 80
 * Gkor: 200
 * Oppoks'ren: 100
 * Yok: 110
 * Mur'lok: 290
 * Roseg: 50
 * Araswel: 50
 * Sar'gel: 60
 * Rest is just rural or other villages
 * Religion: 40% Lustrian folk religion, 3% Tupi folk religion, 1% Arawak folk religion, 42% Krokanist (a 'reformed' Lustrian religion with a more centralised belief system, primarily in eastern Lustria, Amekrogia), 18% Cult of Khrone (primarily in western Lustria, Khorn'kor)
 * Culture/Ethnicity: 91% Lustrian, 3% Tupi, 5% Arawak, 1% Permembe
 * Military: Since Urgoka assumed the rule of the Lustrian Kingdom as the Mortal Bearer, the military has changed a lot. The so-called elite soldiers, the Lizard Warriors are now being decentralised and much harsh training is also being applied to other soldiers to boost their experiences. Encouragement into the military for Khorne cultists have led to some recovery of the military after some of the soldiers that were suspected to be believers of the Krokanist faith, a reformed part of the Lustrian faith, were all killed off mysteriously in the 1340s. This would slowly lead to infiltration.
 * Army: (number clamped down by cultist massacre)
 * 50 'Lizard Warriors' (clubmen with wooden with 'sparsely metallic' shields)
 * 200 'Rainforest Warriors' (spearmen)
 * 150 'Temple Guards' (axemen)
 * 150 'Bowed Protectors' (archers)
 * 22 000 fit men that could be trained into being warriors or hunters
 * Navy:
 * 500 canoes and rafts
 * 120 trading canoes
 * Diplomacy:
 * Tupi Tribes: Trade is being encouraged again under the rule of Urgoka on the Tupi tribes, so those in Amekrogia should revive the Amazon river trade after being reduced under Mortal Bearer Oroku's rule.
 * Arawak Tribes: Expansion continues into their territory, although Lustrian scouts found tribes, alongside with the Permembe people.
 * Events:
 * Waiting for the Death of His Sister: Former Mortal Bearer and pretender to the throne Krokezal awaits for the death of his own sister. He already plans to branch away and disassociate himself from the Urchannkian dynasty, but he would still be a descendant of that dynasty since he is the son of Oroku, his mother. Although in consequence and as pledged by Mortal Bearer Urgoka, she'll make Khornkor an independent kingdom and that her religious title of being the leader of the Khorne cultists will be passed onto someone that she would trust.
 * Religious Book of the Lustrian Faith: Delays has been observed due to these events happening above. Some, if not all, of the inscribers were killed by Khorne cultists, which only delayed this from finishing. Only parts were done, mostly creationist stories and stories of the 'eternal past', with a lack of description of some other Lizard Gods. It is now expected to be done by the 1370s-1380s rather than the next decade.

The tyrant is imprisoned in Morioh, and on March 1359, he is executed in the public square of Morioh by being tied on four ends to horses and literally being ripped apart.
 * Yo, Angelo: After his execution, a statue of Anjuro bowing down in the direction of Kira's shrine is erected in his dishonor. Even in the far future, tourists and people who pass by will empty their bladders onto Anjuro's statue.
 * Josuke's Reign: After the end of the Hiragan Civil War, Josuke takes the lead as the Koshaku of Hiraga and restores the republic, breaking it free of tyranny. (However, he keeps the name "Hiraga" because apparently, he thinks it brings together the various regions and ethnicities of the country well.) He wants to expand Hiragan influence into Indonesia, and his eyes are set on (southern) Borneo and Sulawesi. In any case, Josuke is bound to bring Hiraga to glory. (OOC: mods pls do something good with him)
 * Hatsune-files (pt. 3): Hatsune Miku writes a romantic/erotic play about Jiang Chi and Jotaro.

Isetium

 * Government: Pagan Theocracy (1020?-1321) | Christian Theocracy (1321-present)
 * Dynasty: Tarakis
 * Andros I (1321-1326)
 * Andros II (1326-1334)
 * Andreas I (1334-1339)
 * Andros III (1339-1348)
 * Andros IV (1348-1353)
 * Andreas II (1353-1356)
 * Marius I (1356-present)
 * Economy: Although The Second Campaign has halted trade in the north temporarily, trade among the eastern, western, and southern allies continues to maintain the economy from defaulting. 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: 5,000,000 (63% Egyptian, 15% Arameans, 12% Assyrian, 5% Israelite, 5% Other)
 * Religion: 64% Hellenic Christian, 30% Pagan, 4% Judaism, 2% Zoroastrianism, ~1% Other)
 * Wars and Conflicts:
 * The Second Campaign: With the Coalition War against the Ilkhanate once again proving to be a challenge, the death of the incompetent Andreas II proved once more that a more hardened monarch was needed to seal their fate within the sands of Persia, and to diminish their power in the Levant. Marius I proclaims in his speach at Jerusalem, "... My forefathers, blessed be thee, have failed to end the heretic khanate from treading on our lands. We will no longer stand idle as those monsters occupy our territories!" Although the main army collapsed prior to the Siege of Damascus, the slow burn that the plague has drifted towards has allowed for yet another term of conscription-based conflict. With this, a force of 1,500 is sent up through Tripoli and Antioch in hopes of providing support to the forces in Tarsus, while the young Admiral Mehmet marches a five legions of 5,000 men in an effort to end the Siege of Damascus and make an offensive push towards Sura.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Abay, Aethopia, Adal, Alodia: A proposition to make a more direct road for trade is suggested, starting from Jerusalem, to Alexandria, to Syene, to Meroe, to Erota, to Axum and Gondar, and then to Harar.
 * Cyprus: Ensured sovereignty.
 * Attalea: Marius I's eldest son, the Prince Nicolas, is offered to take the hand in marriage of the eldest Princess.
 * Ahuric Empire, Georgia, Chaldea: As members of the Coalition, it is suggested that all major military forces begin making separate but a united front towards the cities of Nineveh, Tawres, and Ganzak.
 * 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 Orthodox 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, the most popular of which being the Bishop Joseph after his publication of Isetium: Hellenic Sanctity.
 * The Plague: 41% of the population has died in total, dropping over 175% from the initial start of the Plague's rampage throughout Isetium.
 * House of Tarakis: The House of Tarakis, founded by the late Andros I, continues to exert it's individual influence over the territories of Isetium. After the transfer of power from the Hellenic Cult of Kaides into the hands of the House, separatist remnants of Kaides are purposefully exiled into the southwestern desert.

 * A Homeland in Anarchy - As the popes are all messing around in Time and not actually doing the real work and stuff, the mainland is dominated by various fuedal lords all around the rural areas, while the cities function a bit more stably, however this factionalism means that there can only be one . ..
 * Unification - So this holy man has secured most of the peasantry land, and now he demanded the pope to resign and to be replaced, among this revolt, Innocent VI resigned and after a long time of bickering, no one really thought up who could be pope, so the holy man took it for himself, crowning himself John XXIII
 * Strengthen the Holy Army - John XXIII came from a military background-ish thing, as you can tell, leading the revolt against the previous papacy as well as having a very good knowledge of military stuff, he ordered that the military be strengthened and be able to have more troops and better equipment, however he didn't respect the Knights Templar as much as you would think, focusing instead on the more standard army for improvements

The Kingdom of Nagasato

 * Government: Monarchy
 * Kings: 
 * Muramasa II Heihachirō (1321-present)
 * Born: 1293
 * Ruling House: Muramasa
 * Economy: The Nagasatoan Economy primarily consists of fishing, fruits, and precious metals and gems. The currency is based on copper and silver coins. Due to the rapid expansion, the quality of life of even the lowest of peasants has improved, with the poorest able to feed themselves and their families with ease.
 * Main Religion: Shintoism
 * Cities and Demographics:
 * Population: ~199,000
 * Notable Cities:
 * Nagasato City (Capital)
 * Location: Sarangani Bay
 * Nagasato is a city like no other in the Philippines. Carrying the heritage of generations long past, architecture of old is mixed amongst structures of new, with the sea to the south and jungles to the north.
 * Davao (Mining hub)
 * Location: Southern Mindanao
 * Davao was a city created to house the various workers that work in the mines located nearby, which provides for a good majority of the exports from Nagasato
 * Tsuhama
 * Location: Northern Mindanao
 * The location of the old Gambo-ji capital, Tsuhama remains as the stronghold for the province, acting as a "puppet state" of sorts for maintaining control over the region. Also functions similarly to Nagasato City, as trade from the northern Syonan and Japanese islands gets ferried into Tsuhama due to it's closer geographic location than the Nagasatoan cities further south.
 * Cagayan
 * Location: Northern Mindanao
 * Another port city captured during the Nagasatoan Unification of Mindanao. Due to its location, Cagayan is under modifications to becoming one of the hubs for the Nagasatoan navy, with numerous dockyards being produced for housing the growing fleet.
 * Pemagarong
 * Location: Western Mindanao
 * A main trading hub on the Southeast Asian trading route. As such, most, if not all trade funnels through the region, providing the residences of Pemagarong, and all of Nagasato as a whole, a huge source of income, as products and produce gets funneled both into and out of Nagasato as ships come to and from the port city on a daily basis.
 * Souhama City
 * Location: Cebu
 * The old capital of Souhama, like the prior capitals captured, Souhama is kept as the governing hub for the Nagasato-controlled region of Souhama, as well as a means for trading routes from their ally further north to pass through.
 * Wars and Conflicts
 * Food Shortages: Nagasato manages to stabilize their food issues. Though Nagasatoan food supplies aren’t in a position that can be relied on if another crop failure hits the country, it is supplied enough to keep the country from starving to death.
 * Armed Forces
 * Army: 5%
 * Currently: 10,000
 * Deployed units: None
 * 400 Heavy Breakthrough Elite Infantry
 * 3,400 Light Infiltration Marines
 * 500 Light Mixed Cavalry
 * 6,700 Naval personnel
 * Troops in-”reserve”:
 * 250 Homeland Security Infantry (Military Police)
 * Note that most of the Nagasatoan civilians are also capable to defend themselves, though in most situations, will be outclassed by any well-trained army.
 * Navy: 221 Ships
 * RNFS Yamamoto-class Oceanic Battlecruiser Yamamoto
 * Crew: 70
 * 5 Yamamoto-class Oceanic Battlecruisers
 * Crew: 70
 * 47 Pagong-kai-class Oceanic Cruisers
 * Crew: 50
 * 35 Dātsu-class Oceanic Interceptors
 * Crew: 40
 * 63 Balangays (Lightly armed)
 * Crew: 12
 * 55 Retrofitted Paraws (Lightly armed)
 * Crew: 5
 * 100 Oceanic Transport Vessels
 * Research and Development:
 * Danger Pylons: More research and development is put towards the “aquatic rockets”. While progress is slow, there is enough potential to keep the product going. That being said, the development on the Danger Pylons is nearing completion, as a name is currently being drafted for this deadly weapon.
 * Naval Modification: The Nagasatoan Navy drafts plans to modernize the majority of the Nagasatoan Navy to accommodate the new technology. Part from the Subarashi Kulog Taihou MkI Cannon and Subarashi Pagong-class Oceanic Cruisers, the other two classes listed below are going to be put into service once the new “Danger Pylons” are done with their testing and are certified for use in military operations.
 * Subarashi Kulog Taihou MkI: Final testing is performed on the new cannon, with plans for refitting the entire fleet with this model of cannon being in the making.
 * Subarashi Pagong-class Oceanic Cruiser: Plans are drafted for a successor to the Pagong-kai class of Oceanic Cruiser. In essence, two modifications are to be made: firstly, they plan on making the ship bigger, able to house the same number of cannons as before, but equipped with the Subarashi Kulog Taihou.
 * Subarashi Dātsu-class Oceanic Interceptors: Like the Subarashi Pagong-class, the Subarashi Dātsu-class is planned to be slightly bigger to house the same number of cannons as before. However, plans are being made to allow the Subarashi Dātsu-class to wield the new “Danger Pylons”, launching the water-skipping rockets from either side of the ship.
 * Tsuna-class Pylon Boat: A small boat designed for speed and firepower. Though only crewed by ten people, this ship is slightly bigger than a Balangay and its design is based on the Pagong-class base. This ship is made to replace the Balangays in service, and has the same amount of cannons as the Balangays (2 cannons). However, these ships are designed to launch their payload of “Danger Pylons” with ease.
 * Reptilian Growth: Continued breeding of the filipino monitor lizard has caused the species to grow in size, through decades, if not centuries will be required for the lizards to grow even larger.
 * Production:
 * Numerous Orders of the Subarashi Kulog Taihou
 * 3 Subarashi Pagong-class Oceanic Cruiser
 * Diplomacy:
 * None atm
 * Events:
 * Journey to the East: The fleet of explorative vessels managed to make landfall onto the west coast of the island of Papua. Upon landing on the island, the sailors explore around the island, and see the potential in the territory they find, and leave one of the ship and crew behind to set up a small military outpost while the rest return to tell the king of the good news.
 * Successors: Muramasa II had successfully produces offspring back in the late 1340’s: fraternal twins; one boy and one girl. Though gender doesn’t matter within the Nagasatoan succession line, the boy is older, and is in line for succeeding Muramasa II when he passes away. On the other hand, the Nagasatoan high council has plans for the girl...

Great People & EventsKdM1360-1365A.png

 * Ashen Lion (Part 4): After the final battle in Camlann to the south, Caledonian territory's mainland falls to Franglish forces as the leaders had abandoned previously. The battle resulted in the reformation of the Knights of the Round table (Also known as the Order of the Round Table outside of the British Isles). Meanwhile, Artoria II reportedly has taken up Fiete Kjær, Hildr's (refer to Berlin event) niece, as an apprentice, fulfilling her last wish.(EVENT WILL DECIDE FURTHER)
 * Horseman of Famine (Part 4): Despite numerous efforts to combat chaos in ilkhanate, there are several instances that the plague pops up again in its territories, sending fear and panic. While famine has mostly leveled off the large territory struggles to maintain itself from numerous groups vying for power within the chaos. The severity of it has caused many of the former warlords of the Ilkhanate to rebel and form their own kingdoms. Many of those who are still loyal to the Altaic Empire has fled to Golden Horde or Chagatai. Dogar Khan was horrified at the events, moving his troops to and away from Joseon. Although he had made significant ground against the ever still rebeling Joseon. Taihou Khatun is worried and dived deep into her books to try to solve the problem. It was also reported the couple had twins, a boy and a girl. Named Hajaar and Baghdad, respectively.
 * The Reconquista: Valcanorese forces in the south finally take Granada and Advance to Algecia, uniting the Castilean and Valcanorese frontier. Leonese and Valcanorese forces take Coimbra and Evora, sieging Lisboa.
 * Bering Crossing: Fearing the destructive aspects of the plague, many opt to escape to the pristine lands in which news of the thriving Abenankan nation originate from. Many clans were powerless to stop this move, some had their heirs sent for their protection themselves. As such, Abenanka begins to grow with the further Japonisation of the Yupanu and it's publicization to the Home Islands.
 * Call Of The Wendigo: Deep within the northern reaches of Olympia, a new, rather evil-looking entity begins to be the poster-demon of a new religious powerhouse. The Wendigo, a folk legend common within the folklores from Cree to Ojibwe to Algonquian, is effectively apotheosised after a Cree shaman, Matchitehew, supposedly murdered and cannibalised an entire family while under the possession of the Wendigo. Despite this calorie-heavy meal, he was as thin as ever, with deep-sunken eyes that saw through one's skin and looked gluttonously at the organs within. Analysis of his mummified body in the centuries to come would reveal his rare hereditary disease that gave rise to his figure, but it wouldn't be the only case. Amassing a cult following of fearful tribesmen, he expounded his delusions of the Wendigo, more vividly at times when he consumed the sacred mushrooms. In time, he would sire heirs and successors to the Wendigo cause, raising vessels for his gods. The involvement of magic had been rumored, akin to the rites of the Daeva, however it was no question that a new religion had made its presence known, terrorising and abducting unsuspecting travellers and tribes to the north, eating or breeding their captives under the directions of the Wendigo cult and it's leader, the Messenger of the Gods, Matchitehew. As of 1360, there are approximately less than 10 cliques of Wendigo cultists within all of Olympia, however this number is set to grow, as a heir of a Messenger of the Gods may inherit the "Wendigo factor" allowing for them to be eligible to lead the clique once the current Messenger died, or start their own clique.
 * Illness of the Ilkhanate: The great Khans of the Ilkhanate themselves were not spared from the plagues, with the severity of the epidemic in the state leading to it's downfall and fracture. Failing to keep the peripherals of the state and even some of the core regions under control, the Ilkhanate dissolved into multiple independent entities, including the Urdek and Keqi Khanates, the two largest polities, independent Scythian kingdoms, Arzhamic theocracies and multiple small (and rather irrelevant) kingdoms. In the chaos and the fall, Chaldea, Atouman, Georgia and the Ahuric Empire managed to annex a significant amount of land.

NPC Turns

 * Golden Horde: invades Vedenian and Svartheim occupied territories. They recapture Kuma and Hadan. They give a proposal to the Yin-Tsu, become a vassal and not be smitten down
 * Haemus: they secede from Svartheim, reclaiming their former lands south of them all the way to the borders of Byzantium.
 * Vilmnatz: The rebellion's occupation travels across Svartheim, roughly to the area of Wallachia to cut the country in two.
 * Ajuran: They accept the Sumali offer

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)
 * Andreas II (1353-1356)
 * Marius I (1356-1362)
 * Andros V (1362-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: 4,950,000 (63% Egyptian, 15% Arameans, 12% Assyrian, 5% Israelite, 5% Other)
 * Religion: 67% Hellenic Christian, 27% Pagan, 4% Judaism, 2% Zoroastrianism, ~1% Other)
 * Diplomacy:
 * Ahuric Empire, Byzantium, Chaldea: It is suggested by Andros V that an alliance, known as the Eastern Mediterranean Military Alliance, is established in case of another external power threatening our sovereignty and to also low-key destabilize the Arzhamist kingdoms in Anatolia.
 * Cyprus: Ensured sovereignty.
 * Events:
 * Succession to the Throne: After the death and burial of Marius I, who will be retroactively regarded as the lead monarch to defeat the heretic Ilkhanate in Isetium, his eldest son, the Prince Nicolas, proclaims himself Andros V.
 * 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, making conversion easier.
 * The Plague: 43% of the population has died in total, dropping over 100% from the initial start of the Plague's rampage throughout Isetium.
 * House of Orthaeus: The end of the war, along with the rise of wealty merchants, has allowed for the House of Orthaeus, founded by Selepos Orthaeus, to rise in political power. Although the House of Tarakis has been allowed to prosper under it's various rulers, the current being Andros V, an agreement is brokered to allowed Selepos's son, Koragos, to ascend to the throne after Andros' V older sister Medea marries Koragos.
 * Judaist-Hellenic Agreement: As a sign of good faith and prosperity within the fallout of the Second Campaign, Andros V meets with Rabi Jeremi to discuss terms of the Jewish and Israelite people in Isetium. A treaty, known as the Judaist-Hellenic Agreement, is pushed forward to give the Israelite people for personal freedom and domestic autonomy, while also maintaining a small number of advisors and missionaries in Alexandria.
 * 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.

Kingdom of Lustria | 'The Eternal Kingdom of the Lizard Gods'

 * Government: Centralised tribal monarchy
 * Great Chief / Mortal Bearer of the Lizard Gods:
 * K'oroka ([F], 1199-1246, r. 1222-1246)
 * Moszar ([M], 1214-1258, r. 1246-1258)
 * Urchannk ([M], 1230-1284, r. 1258-1284)
 * Azarkel ([F], 1255-1303, r. 1284-1303)
 * Oroku ([F], 1280-1347, r. 1303-1347)
 * Krokezal ([M], b. 1320, r. 1347)
 * Urgoka ([F], 1302-1361, r. 1347-1361)
 * Krokezal ([M], b. 1320, r. 1361)
 * Heirs and Pretenders:
 * As'gar ([M], b. 1352, heir)
 * (not related) Religious Leader of Krokanism / The Messenger to Kroak:
 * Rhok'sk ([M] 1284-1328, r. c. 1300s-1328)
 * Omako ([M] 1280-1352, r. 1331-1352)
 * Krokezal ([M], b. 1320, r. 1352)
 * Dynasty:
 * Urchannkian (1275-1361)
 * Krokezian (1361-)
 * Capital: Amekrog
 * Economy: The economy has shifted a lot after the death of Urgoka and the inauguration of Mortal Bearer pretender Krokezal to be the leader again. Trading by now is much focused on the Arawak and the Tremembe people as access to the Tupi people within the deep Amazon region has been cut off by Khorne cultists, thanks to Urgoka's demands to let Khorne cultists have their own kingdom.  Shrines and temples within the remainder of Lustria would begin accepting any food or tribute to any of the Lizard Gods recognised by the Krokanist faith, the 'reformed' part of the Lustrian folk religion. Any type of food would do, except meat, which is forbidden due to connotations of Khorne's sacrifice of meat as being worshipping Khorne.
 * Demographics:
 * Population: 41 900
 * Amekrog: 1 300
 * Osbme: 300
 * Koos'en: 350
 * Eztekol: 150
 * Sal'tcet: 80
 * Oppoks'ren: 100
 * Yok: 110
 * Mur'lok: 290
 * Roseg: 50
 * Araswel: 50
 * Sar'gel: 60
 * Kelo: 40
 * Turon: 30
 * Rest is just rural or other villages
 * Religion: 45% Lustrian folk religion, 3% Arawak folk religion, 50% Krokanist (a 'reformed' Lustrian religion with a more centralised belief system), 2% Cult of Khrone (primarily in western Lustria, Khorn'kor)
 * Culture/Ethnicity: 90% Lustrian, 7% Arawak, 3% Tremembe
 * Military: After the death of Urgoka, many of the Khorne cultists would be expelled from the military. Urgoka's organised military and recruitment strategy would remain, however there is nothing of importance in Lustria that has changed warrior tradition, not at least for the next two centuries.
 * Army: (number clamped down by cultist massacre)
 * 50 'Lizard Warriors' (clubmen with wooden with 'sparsely metallic' shields)
 * 150 'Rainforest Warriors' (spearmen)
 * 120 'Temple Guards' (axemen)
 * 120 'Bowed Protectors' (archers)
 * 20 000 fit men that could be trained into being warriors or hunters
 * Navy:
 * 500 canoes and rafts
 * 120 trading canoes
 * Diplomacy: N/A
 * Events:
 * Death of Urgoka: Urgoka died on 1361, despite her attempts to stay and live longer with some of her Khorne loyalists trying to 'extend' her life through sacrifices of hunted animals. This came with failure and after a decade of her own reign, the rule of tyranny over Lustria would also come to an end. This would be celebrated by Krokanists, but there will be setbacks.
 * Khorne Cultists Strike Back!: The Khorne temple is completed as early as expected on 1364. In that opened temple, cultists have shun the call for their own right to live by themselves. They see Loze'gorn, the son of Urgoka as their rightful ruler of Khorn'kor, as he bears the title of being the leader of the Khorne Cult after his mother's own death. Loze'gorn refused to gain the title of the Mortal Bearer of Lustria, believing that he could not live or tolerate with the 'other heretics' (non-Khorne believers). He rounded up hundreds of these cultists and armed them to Amekrog. Since Loze'gorn didn't take the title, the next pretender and the younger brother of Urgoka, Krokezal, usurped the title of being the Mortal Bearer. He took the title on 1361 and was popular along the Amazon river delta, but when he took notice of Loze'gorn, he took aggressive action against him and thus, the Battle of Amekrog began, an epic battle that is also one of the major events written down by some Krokanists as the 'fate of the Lizard Gods' own people'. Dozens would die and Amekrog's central quarter, where wooden huts and shrines meet, were burnt down and defaced by Khorne cultists in just four days. Later on, the Mortal Bearer's own palace and 'communicator' to all Lizard Gods, was besieged. Loze'gorn finally showed up for the first time. He would prefer to destroy the role and bring Lustria back into the 'great old past', but he instead demanded that Krokezal give Khorne cultists their own kingdom or else he would overthrow it and declare the Khorn'kor Kingdom, removing the instance of Lustria. Krokezal, having no choice, decided that the best choice to spare thousands of people, is to let Loze'gorn have his own cultist kingdom set up. By 1362, Khorne's Realm (or Khorn'kor) would be formed as an independent kingdom, which became extremely isolated from communication. In the long run, this kingdom would still survive for a while, but in the end, Krokezal and his descendants would vow to retake it soon. The Krokezian dynasty would officially become the new dynasty of the new face of Lustria and there would be relative peace shortly after.
 * Religious Book of the Lustrian Faith: Delays has been observed due to these events happening above. Some, if not all, of the inscribers were killed by Khorne cultists, which only delayed this from finishing. Only parts were done, mostly creationist stories and stories of the 'eternal past', with a lack of description of some other Lizard Gods. It is now expected to be done by the 1370s-1380s rather than the next decade.

Zhuang Dynasty and associated Chinese Warlords:
Government: Absolute Monarchy Economy: The Economy is mainly agriculture based, with industries such as silk farming, ceramics, paper making, and tea growing all being present. Zhuhai, Zhoushan and Fuzhou are all major trade centers, along with Xiangdu, Wuhan, and Chengdu in the interior. The Plague renders much of the population base useless, resulting in economic and societal collapse. Oh well.
 * Emperor: Toghon Temur (Huizong) Khan (age 31), Üldsen (Lin'ao) Khatun (age 13 in the year 1262)
 * Dynasty: Borjigin-Xie
 * Parliament: Nonexistent
 * Alliances: Altaic Empire

Capital: Dai

Administration: 20 different Circuits (Lu) governed by Taishous (Great Administrator). Every Jun is divided into prefectures (Zhou), which in turn are divided into urban counties (Fu) and Rural counties (Xian). Most prefectures are only composed of 3-6 counties. In border regions in Manchuria and Mongolia, we instead divide the land into provinces (Shen), which have no smaller administrative divisions under them.

The Government is structured into a system of bureaus and offices, with the Emperor at the government’s head. The system is meritocratic, with exams determining which candidates are given which position. The military and the central government are not separated, with The Emperor at the head of both. The Emperor, or his senior commanders are to always lead campaigns, to ensure unity of command. The Cabinet is made of 12 Officials (they also serve as his advisers), who oversee their respective bureaus or offices. A universal tax system, in which villages must submit 15% of their yields (in the form of the crops themselves or as money) to their commandery government. This is used to support the military and any infrastructural development.

 * Northern Capital no more: In the winter 1260 and 1261 much of Beijing’s Population dies due to a respiratory disease (Same coronavirus in Wuhan right now). The city is declared to be under a state of Fengcheng (Quarantine) on January 23rd, 1261. However, this precaution was not needed as a fire in the city (which may have been deliberately started by the government in order to leave nothing for the Joseon forces), and destroys most  of the city. As the Joseon forces approach Beijing, Panic and Paranoia consume the city, and the Authorities order a complete destruction of the city, and send the healthy survivors to Dongying and Anyang.
 * Loss of Power: As we lose control over fringe territories, they begin to be reclaimed by tribes, and everything north of Chumikan falls back into Tungusic Hands. In Tibet, The Kingdom of Kham is founded with Chamdo as its capital.
 * Panda Boi: Que Shen and Qing Long (Tai Long) decide to conquer China at the same time. Tai Long gains considerable ground northwest China, while Shen and his allies conquer much of the southern coast. However, Po, who studied at the Daoist Temple at Bao Mountain, defeats Tai Long in a duel with a wok (coming up in a KdM story!).
 * Death of Huizong: Huizong dies, weakening the already fragile government. In a weird turn of events, his daughter, Lin, is made emperor, as she is Huizong's only competent child.
 * Empress Lin: Lin'ao proves to be a competent ruler, perhaps too competent for the powerful eunuch faction within the court. She regains control of a few armies, giving her 90,000 Soldiers under her command. However, she also spends massive sums of money on renovating the Palace, her gardens, and on military equipment  To acquire this money, she raises the taxes, angering many people.
 * National Unrest: More and more people have a negative view of Taihou and Dogar, even though they sent troops to Joseon. However, all the victories are usually attributed to the Chinese warlords defending their land and Sibuci.
 * Indonesian Shenanigans: Minahasa, Ternate, and Nunusaku are placed under the jurisdiction of Zhaowa, but their rulers and officials still maintain authority in certain places.
 * Joseon War (Chinese Front): A coalition of warlords assist the government in fighting Joseon. Together, their men number 300,000. As the front is near the capital, logistics is not an issue. We hope to halt the Joseon advance and recapture Chengde and Simyang.
 * Joseon War (Manchurian Front): Sibuci allies another Jurchen Warlord who has considerable influence in Modern-Day Primorsky. Sibuci also rallies a few more Jurchen clans, swelling his forces to 60,000 horsemen, and 21,000 Infantry. His ally, Tulergi (Sinicized as Tuliji) has 25,000 Horsemen and 8,000 Infantry, which he uses to invade Taehyung and Haesamwi. Sibuci’s troops continue their campaign in the north, hoping to capture Haeolbin and Jangchung, and then moving on to Simyang.

 * Papal Council? - John XXIII came to the realization that he kinda is more of a religious leader and can't really manage all the stuff, while this is not guarranteed and this is not an attempt to establish democracy, he proposes the notion of a Papal Council as an advisory, and even possibly administrative body so he can have more time to work on religous matters and stuff
 * Strengthen the Holy Army - John XXIII came from a military background-ish thing, as you can tell, leading the revolt against the previous papacy as well as having a very good knowledge of military stuff, he ordered that the military be strengthened and be able to have more troops and better equipment, however he didn't respect the Knights Templar as much as you would think, focusing instead on the more standard army for improvements

Roman Republic of Vedenia

 * Parliament: the Council with no actual factions present.
 * Royal Families: although de-jure Vedenia is a republic, de-facto it is an oligarchy controlled by a few biggest families who battle over the dominance in Vedenia. On the other hand, there is still quite a high social mobility and sometimes even the poorest become the richest.
 * Adamus Fuscinus is the son of Tycho Fuscinus, a prominent governor. He was elected after his father resigned. From the very childhood, Adamus has been interested in warfare and graduated from a military academy as one of the best students. Not long after, he joined the battles against Lithuania but his actions were strongly restricted by the rest of generals. However, now when he is in charge he is capable of implementing his plans full scale,

The Heavenly Republic | Yin-Tsu Republic | Respublik Çinnetu

 * Government: Theocratic Republic
 * Heavenly Messenger: Yuen Çin (de facto; no wartime elections | b.1317)
 * Capital: Chiko
 * Economy: Recovering from the Plague. We are mostly agrarian, but dabble in trade in the Black Sea a bit, as well as some mining.
 * Demographics (current area we control):
 * Population: 207k
 * Chiko: 24k
 * Kamo: 11k
 * Religion: 96% Orthodox Christianity, 3% Catholicism, 1% other (mostly foreign traders)
 * Ethnicity: 66% Çumñen (Yin-tsu), 25% Crimean Gothic, 7% Varangian, 2% other (mostly Greek, Khazar, or other traders)
 * Military:
 * Army: 4000 swordsmen, 1500 archers, 1000 cavalry
 * Navy: no real military navy, 3 "warships", ~212 merchant ships
 * Wars and Conflicts:
 * Yin-Tsu War of Liberation: We attempt to push past the Crimean Peninsula, and into the European mainland, moving straight towards Armafa. On the east coast of the Sea of Azov, we attempt to push north, taking the coastline, and approaching the city of Taganrog.
 * Events:
 * Yuen Çin and the Heavenly Republic: Yuen Çin was brought up in a military family, but eventually found his calling in the word of God, and became a priest in his rural hometown. His eloquent speeches and mastery of words later got the attention of the Patriarch of Constantinople, who appointed him to the Diocese of Chiko, the largest Yin-Tsu majority city. Upon the decline of Daevite power, Yuen Çin saw the writing on the wall, and had decided that the time was ripe to both restore the independence of the Yin-tsu nation that had been denied them ever since the Kingdom of Tartary, on the tail end of the Roman Empire, as well as usher in God's Kingdom on Earth: a devout, churchgoing nation that valued the Word of God above all. Throughout the 1340s and 50s, he would lead the Yin-tsu as their Heavenly Messenger into rebellion against the Altaic Khanate, hoping to usher in a new golden age of peace and prosperity for the Yin-tsu, as well as a golden age of spirituality and connecting with the Almighty.
 * Beginnings of a Nation: Much of the trappings of a nation are created at this time. The Palace of the Messenger is constructed in Chiko, to serve as the residence of the Heavenly Messenger. New, distinctly Yin-tsu coins are also issued, instead of continuing to use Byzantine, Vedenan, or Daevite currency. Law enforcement is also recruited from amongst the people, and sent out to towns and cities, in order to bring the rule of law back to the Yin-tsu territories.
 * The Ecclesiastic Network: To better acquaint the people with the glory of God, churches are constructed, so that even the smallest hamlet of just a handful of people could have a church to call their own. Priests are encouraged to preach to the people in the vernacular instead of in Latin whenever possible (i.e use the vernacular as much as one can without being labelled a heretic by the higher Church officials). Clergy, as well as families of clergy, are also offered tax-exempt status for their households, as well as Church property.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Vedena: We're both Orthodox Christian, we're a republic, and we'll give you the ability to base your fleet at our ports if you help us. Please help us gain independence from the Wicked Daevite.
 * Svartheim: please help us, we're both Orthodox

Kingdom of Osnerol

 * Events (italics indicate potential events):
 * Copper Mining: The Osnerolese begin exploiting the copper deposits in Cuba, building mines and using copper for stuff.
 * Road System: Two separate road systems are built in "Florida" and on the Osnerolese part of Cuba.
 * Hellenization of Osnerol (if Dysia accepts): After the deal with Dysia, the Kingdom of Osnerol begins to undergo cultural diffusion. Hellenic architecture and art influences the Osnerolese style, and the Greek alphabet is borrowed. The Osnerolese deities begin to see some Greek influence as well. The king himself seems pretty interested in the Greeks, sending envoys to Dysia to attempt to learn of their culture.
 * Modernization of Osnerol (if Dysia accepts): After the deal with Dysia, technology imported by the Atlanteans reaches Osnerol as well.

The Kingdom of Nagasato

 * Government: Monarchy
 * Kings: 
 * Muramasa II Heihachirō (1321-present)
 * Born: 1293
 * Ruling House: Muramasa
 * Economy: The Nagasatoan Economy primarily consists of fishing, fruits, and precious metals and gems. The currency is based on copper and silver coins. Due to the rapid expansion, the quality of life of even the lowest of peasants has improved, with the poorest able to feed themselves and their families with ease.
 * Main Religion: Shintoism
 * Cities and Demographics:
 * Population: ~201,000
 * Notable Cities:
 * Nagasato City (Capital)
 * Location: Sarangani Bay
 * Nagasato is a city like no other in the Philippines. Carrying the heritage of generations long past, architecture of old is mixed amongst structures of new, with the sea to the south and jungles to the north.
 * Davao (Mining hub)
 * Location: Southern Mindanao
 * Davao was a city created to house the various workers that work in the mines located nearby, which provides for a good majority of the exports from Nagasato
 * Tsuhama
 * Location: Northern Mindanao
 * The location of the old Gambo-ji capital, Tsuhama remains as the stronghold for the province, acting as a "puppet state" of sorts for maintaining control over the region. Also functions similarly to Nagasato City, as trade from the northern Syonan and Japanese islands gets ferried into Tsuhama due to it's closer geographic location than the Nagasatoan cities further south.
 * Cagayan
 * Location: Northern Mindanao
 * Another port city captured during the Nagasatoan Unification of Mindanao. Due to its location, Cagayan is under modifications to becoming one of the hubs for the Nagasatoan navy, with numerous dockyards being produced for housing the growing fleet.
 * Pemagarong
 * Location: Western Mindanao
 * A main trading hub on the Southeast Asian trading route. As such, most, if not all trade funnels through the region, providing the residences of Pemagarong, and all of Nagasato as a whole, a huge source of income, as products and produce gets funneled both into and out of Nagasato as ships come to and from the port city on a daily basis.
 * Souhama City
 * Location: Cebu
 * The old capital of Souhama, like the prior capitals captured, Souhama is kept as the governing hub for the Nagasato-controlled region of Souhama, as well as a means for trading routes from their ally further north to pass through.
 * Wars and Conflicts
 * Food Shortages: Nagasato manages to stabilize their food issues. Though Nagasatoan food supplies aren’t in a position that can be relied on if another crop failure hits the country, it is supplied enough to keep the country from starving to death.
 * Armed Forces
 * Army: 5%
 * Currently: 10,000
 * Deployed units: None
 * 400 Heavy Breakthrough Elite Infantry
 * 3,400 Light Infiltration Marines
 * 500 Light Mixed Cavalry
 * 6,700 Naval personnel
 * Troops in-”reserve”:
 * 250 Homeland Security Infantry (Military Police)
 * Note that most of the Nagasatoan civilians are also capable to defend themselves, though in most situations, will be outclassed by any well-trained army.
 * Navy: 221 Ships
 * RNFS Yamamoto-class Oceanic Battlecruiser Yamamoto
 * Crew: 70
 * 5 Yamamoto-class Oceanic Battlecruisers
 * Crew: 70
 * 3 Subarashi Pagong-class Oceanic Cruisers
 * Crew: 60
 * 47 Pagong-kai-class Oceanic Cruisers
 * Crew: 50
 * 35 Dātsu-class Oceanic Interceptors
 * Crew: 40
 * 63 Balangays (Lightly armed)
 * Crew: 12
 * 55 Retrofitted Paraws (Lightly armed)
 * Crew: 5
 * 100 Oceanic Transport Vessels
 * Research and Development:
 * Danger Pylons: More research and development is put towards the “aquatic rockets”. While progress is slow, there is enough potential to keep the product going. That being said, the development on the Danger Pylons is nearing completion, as a name is currently being drafted for this deadly weapon.
 * Naval Modification: The Nagasatoan Navy drafts plans to modernize the majority of the Nagasatoan Navy to accommodate the new technology. Part from the Subarashi Kulog Taihou MkI Cannon and Subarashi Pagong-class Oceanic Cruisers, the other two classes listed below are going to be put into service once the new “Danger Pylons” are done with their testing and are certified for use in military operations.
 * Subarashi Kulog Taihou MkI: Final testing is performed on the new cannon, with plans for refitting the entire fleet with this model of cannon being in the making.
 * Subarashi Pagong-class Oceanic Cruiser: Plans are drafted for a successor to the Pagong-kai class of Oceanic Cruiser. In essence, two modifications are to be made: firstly, they plan on making the ship bigger, able to house the same number of cannons as before, but equipped with the Subarashi Kulog Taihou.
 * Subarashi Dātsu-class Oceanic Interceptors: Like the Subarashi Pagong-class, the Subarashi Dātsu-class is planned to be slightly bigger to house the same number of cannons as before. However, plans are being made to allow the Subarashi Dātsu-class to wield the new “Danger Pylons”, launching the water-skipping rockets from either side of the ship.
 * Tsuna-class Pylon Boat: A small boat designed for speed and firepower. Though only crewed by ten people, this ship is slightly bigger than a Balangay and its design is based on the Pagong-class base. This ship is made to replace the Balangays in service, and has the same amount of cannons as the Balangays (2 cannons). However, these ships are designed to launch their payload of “Danger Pylons” with ease.
 * Reptilian Growth: Continued breeding of the filipino monitor lizard has caused the species to grow in size, through decades, if not centuries will be required for the lizards to grow even larger.
 * Production:
 * Numerous Orders of the Subarashi Kulog Taihou
 * 3 Subarashi Pagong-class Oceanic Cruiser
 * Diplomacy:
 * None atm
 * Events:
 * Journey to the East: Ships return to Nagasato and inform the king of the distant lands. With this knowledge in mind, Muramasa II orders preparations for bolstering the base established on the newly discovered island, as well as begin the search for farmers to recruit for purposes of producing food for the nation.
 * Marriage: With Muramasa II’s daughter of age, she is sent to the northern province with the purpose of marrying into their family. The ultimate hopes are to eventually merge the two nations into one

Great People & Events

 * The Reconquista: The capital of Lisbon is taken after a massive battle, where the walls are breached and a major Aresian commander is killed. Sanches remains the only stronghold of Andalousia in Iberia, but great walls and defenses are erected in the city and it's vicinity. For now, the forces of Gladius Christi don't invade it, as it'd be a suicide mission.
 * Ashen Lion (Part 5): With the full conquest of the rest of Caledon's islands, Artoria II declares the formation of the Kingdom of Britain, a diarchy along with River Mordue. One of River's first acts is to name the Isle of Mann to the Isle of Ember. With the conquests of British Isles, Artoria II sets her sights on Eire in order to take down the Gaels once and for all.
 * Horseman of Famine: In 1365, the Joseon Kingdom's front collapses, forcing the Joseon back due to a long period of war (for now). The Zhuang Dynasty collapses in 1368 due to numerous reasons, including the rise of Xianism. Resulting in numerous states such as the Manchurian Aigun kingdom, the Wu Dynasty (Analogue Ming), and other Chinese states including another dynasty in Southern China (Sino-Ternatian), and some Hmong dude is ruling the middle/upper regions of the Yangtze, however the remaining territory is ruled by the Northern Zhuang (still loyal to the Altaic Empire). By 1370, instability from mismanagement and corruption led to massive uprisings that fractured southern China into multiple smaller kingdoms and dynasties. In the north, the Ba theocracy held on by virtue of religious zeal, establishing itself as the foremost state within All Under Heaven in the practice of Xianism. Zhaowa continues to maintain itself independent of its contacts in Zhuang, reforming itself into a trade-oriented republic.
 * Nagarakretagama: The Javanese eulogy to Hayam Wuruk, a great king of the Majapahit Empire is written. It contains a detailed description of the Empire at it's current state and affirsm the importance of Hindu–Buddhism in the Majapahit empire by describing temples and palaces and several ceremonial observances.

NPC Turns

 * Atouman: Taking advantage of Byzantine and Svartheim distractions, they attack Gallipoli. After several retreats and victories, the Atoumans finally been able to get a foothold on Gallipoli, plowing their way through the now crippled Byzantine Army to Adrianople and Thessalonica. This marks the first time Arzham permanently lands in Europe as the war between Atoumans and Byzantines end in Arzham victory.
 * Hellumark: Dunchadh Svartgeirrsson, the old Earl of Eyja-Aran, now having replenished his followers and his cousin who usurped him thinking him dead by the hands of the Innu, leads an invasion of Eyra-Ajan. He reclaims the island and executes his cousin for treachery. The island is sacked, as they know they can't hold it. Every house is scorched and farms ravaged. Everything of value is taken and women and slaves
 * Byzantium: They conquer Durån.
 * Inkeri: They invade Livonia, conquering Riga, but making only slight progress into the inner rural regions, with the government and commanders of Livonia fleeing to the wilderness from Riga
 * Svartheim: They ask for Byzantine help against the Vilmnatz uprising and Haemus. They also sue for peace with the Golden Horde. They recapture Ingrida, but lose Bönen.
 * Dysia: Shiver me timbers! A trade? Eh maybe. But we benefit more from plunderin', avast ye matey!
 * Hiraga-Koku: We agree with a royal marriage. For now.
 * Ahuric Empire, Byzantium, Chaldea: They decide that an alliance would be beneficial in the long term, and accept.
 * Ajuran: They agree.
 * Elysia: They agree to trade.

Zhuang Dynasty (Explaining things in the new turn)

 * Lanzhou: 91,000
 * Haiyan: 300,000
 * Xiangdu: 241,000

 * Zhuang: 3%
 * Other: 2%
 * Post-Collapse Due to famine, plague, and war, 38% of the population has died in the 3 decades from 1240 to 1270. Overmilitarization is common among states from this time, and the pressures between competing states in the following years cause Gunpowder technology to become more advanced and widespread in China than OTL. Qin, with its capable loli general Tanya and its large and capable military, seems set to conquer its neighboring states, but Tiananguo might pose a threat. Multiple states are founded by Xianist sects which haven't joined Ba, such as Ying, Qin, and Gou, founded by the Gusu Lan, Yunmeng Jiang, and Baling Ouyang sect, respectively.
 * Lin and Lei'en: In late 1367, the royal palace at Dai is stormed by angry peasants, lead by eunuchs. They sentence Lin to execution by hanging, and carry the execution out. However, little do they know, the one they executed is not Lin, but rather her twin brother, Lei'en. In a remarkable act of filial piety, Lei'en took Lin's clothes, before leading her out of the palace and being captured by the mob. Lin, after some time in a temple,she  goes to Zhaowa. (Will become a KdM story)
 * Panda Boi: Po, with an army, goes to Dai to rescue Lin, but when he reaches there Lin has already ran away and Lei'en has been executed. He decides to become Emperor himself, but is killed in the fighting. His last recorded words are “Change the world, my last message. Goodbye.”
 * Heavenly state of Ba: The Qishan Wen sect, taking advantage of the power vacuum, conquers much of northern china, and now seeks to control the Xianist world. However, after destroying basically all of the Yunmeng Jiang sect in one night, the other sects unite against Qishan Wen, and many Wen-aligned sects defect. In November of 1368, Qishan Wen is destroyed, after the battle of Wuyecheng. The surviving members fleeing to Yiling, under Wei Wuxian, a sectless Xianist with controversial views on Xianist dogma. Lanling Jin sect and Qinghe Nie inherit Ba, and conquer Tai Long’s remants. Not long after, many of the former members of the Qishan Wen sect are worked to death in work campsby the Lanling Jin sect, much to the horrow of Wei Wuxian and the rest of the Xianist world.
 * Que Shen: Que Shen dies in the battle of Uenciou (Wenzhou), and his vast realm is split up by his generals, while Yuetai conquers some of his other holdings. One of his generals, a Ternatian-Cantonese man, founds the state of Heunggong.
 * Manchurian Shenanigins: Sibuci founds the Kingdom of Aigun, and Tulergi founds the Kingdom of Techuhe. They both have ambitions in the Manchurian plain south of the Amur river, but due to the presence of Northern Zhuang, they are unable to pursue such ambitions.
 * Expansion of Zhaowa: More than 21,000 Chinese from Southern China escape to Zhaowa during the collapse, resulting in further sinicization of the region. A bit less than half the population has Chinese Ancestry by 1270. The nation founds new settlements across eastern New Guinea, buying the land from the Paupans with Rice Wine, porcelain, and other commodities.
 * Baix Tsov: A Hmong Ruler from the Tsaab (Sinicized as Cha or Xiong) clan who assumes the title of Baix Tsov (White Tiger), conquers the Sichuan Basin and the Three Gorges region, creating a mixed Hmong/Tujia/Ba-Shu nation. He names this nation Tiananzhou (天南州）

Sumali Sultanate

 * Sultan: Bashiir al-Fahrid Sadiiq (B 1302 D 1365) (R 1334 - 1365), Umar Ali Sadiiq (B 1330, alive) (R 1365 - Present)
 * Dynasty: Sadiiq
 * Economy: The economy of Sumali is based on mostly on trade, agriculture and fishing. Sumali trades things such as gold, wax and ivory and Sumali merchants go everywhere from the Arabian peninsula to India and rarely all the way to Southeast and East Asia. Sumali also participates in the vast Arabian slave trade. The Sumali Sultanate uses gold coins as currency.
 * Allies: Ajuran
 * Capital: Al-Bahr
 * Demographics:

 * Events:
 * Western Expansion: Expansion and integration of Kushite tribes is done through Zoroastrian missionary work as well as attempting to convince them to join. No military action or direct annexation is made to avoid angering them. They are the same as us after all.
 * Interest in Soqotra: Soqotra, the archipelago belonging to Al-Qarsoon with the city of Tamreda, becomes a place of interest in Sumali's eyes as it could be a very important port in terms of our interest in the trade moving across the Indian Ocean.
 * Sumali Brother (and Sister)hood: Recent efforts to become closer to our closest cousins in Ajuran have been made. With an alliance, royal marriage and to a certain extent free moving between our states, Sumali and Ajuran people start forming relationships and forming families, but it has only begun around the time of Bashiir's death.

Kingdom of Lustria | 'The Eternal Kingdom of the Lizard Gods'

 * Government: Centralised tribal monarchy
 * Great Chief / Mortal Bearer of the Lizard Gods:
 * K'oroka ([F], 1199-1246, r. 1222-1246)
 * Moszar ([M], 1214-1258, r. 1246-1258)

 * Heirs and Pretenders:
 * As'gar ([M], b. 1352, heir)
 * (not related) Religious Leader of Krokanism / The Messenger to Kroak:
 * Rhok'sk ([M] 1284-1328, r. c. 1300s-1328)
 * Omako ([M] 1280-1352, r. 1331-1352)
 * Krokezal ([M], b. 1320, r. 1352)
 * Dynasty:
 * Urchannkian (1275-1361)
 * Krokezian (1361-)
 * Capital: Amekrog
 * Economy: The economy has shifted a lot after the death of Urgoka and the inauguration of Mortal Bearer pretender Krokezal to be the leader again. Trading by now is much focused on the Arawak and the Tremembe people as access to the Tupi people within the deep Amazon region has been cut off by Khorne cultists, thanks to Urgoka's demands to let Khorne cultists have their own kingdom.  Shrines and temples within the remainder of Lustria would begin accepting any food or tribute to any of the Lizard Gods recognised by the Krokanist faith, the 'reformed' part of the Lustrian folk religion. Any type of food would do, except meat, which is forbidden due to connotations of Khorne's sacrifice of meat as being worshipping Khorne.
 * Demographics:
 * Population: 42 800
 * Amekrog: 1 300
 * Osbme: 350
 * Koos'en: 350
 * Eztekol: 150
 * Sal'tcet: 80
 * Oppoks'ren: 100
 * Yok: 110
 * Mur'lok: 330
 * Roseg: 50
 * Araswel: 50
 * Sar'gel: 40
 * Kelo: 30
 * Turon: 40
 * Rest is just rural or other villages
 * Religion: 45% Lustrian folk religion, 3% Arawak folk religion, 50% Krokanist (a 'reformed' Lustrian religion with a more centralised belief system), 2% Cult of Khrone (primarily in western Lustria, Khorn'kor)
 * Culture/Ethnicity: 90% Lustrian, 7% Arawak, 3% Tremembe
 * Military: After the death of Urgoka, many of the Khorne cultists would be expelled from the military. Urgoka's organised military and recruitment strategy would remain, however there is nothing of importance in Lustria that has changed warrior tradition, not at least for the next two centuries.
 * Army: (number clamped down by cultist massacre)
 * 50 'Lizard Warriors' (clubmen with wooden with 'sparsely metallic' shields)
 * 150 'Rainforest Warriors' (spearmen)
 * 120 'Temple Guards' (axemen)
 * 120 'Bowed Protectors' (archers)
 * 20 000 fit men that could be trained into being warriors or hunters
 * Navy:
 * 500 canoes and rafts
 * 120 trading canoes
 * Diplomacy: N/A
 * Events:
 * Religious Book of the Lustrian Faith: Delays has been observed due to these events happening above. Some, if not all, of the inscribers were killed by Khorne cultists, which only delayed this from finishing. Only parts were done, mostly creationist stories and stories of the 'eternal past', with a lack of description of some other Lizard Gods. It is now expected to be done by the 1370s-1380s rather than the next decade.

 * Papal Council? - John XXIII came to the realization that he kinda is more of a religious leader and can't really manage all the stuff, while this is not guarranteed and this is not an attempt to establish democracy, he proposes the notion of a Papal Council as an advisory, and even possibly administrative body so he can have more time to work on religous matters and stuff, after a lot of consideration he decides to make the Papal Council an emergency advisory body made of 15 Bishops that can vote on a decision if they are summoned by the pope, they also now get to decide who becomes the next pope
 * Oops he Died - While going on a short journey on his way to Perugia for a quick stay, John XXIII fell of his horse and borke his neck, the Papal Council is automatically summoned to determine the succession

 * Reform of the Templar - Though the previous pope never really gave a lot of attention to the Knights Templar, they still benefitted from his policies. After his death, upon getting a lot less the Templar reforms into the Knights Militant of Saint Stephen, which is a lot less connected to the papacy but still loyal to them, they request a bit of land from the pope for themselves, which the council in a narrow vote of 8-7 grants, but their army still is part of the army of the Papal States, and both must come to the protection of the other, and the Papal States get authority in their affairs to.

 * Diplomacy:

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)
 * Andreas II (1353-1356)
 * 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: 4,950,000 (63% Egyptian, 15% Arameans, 12% Assyrian, 5% Israelite, 5% Other)
 * Religion: 67% Hellenic Christian, 27% Pagan, 4% Judaism, 2% Zoroastrianism, ~1% Other)
 * Diplomacy:
 * Ahuric Empire, Byzantium, Chaldea (E.M.M.A.): It is suggested by Koragos I that the Eastern Mediterranean Military Alliance act on the Siege of Gallipoli, which was a Byzantine failure. It is believed that an invasion and declaration of war on the Atouman and Arzhamic Anatolian kingdoms be initiated for the security of Christian sovereignty in the region.
 * War and Conflicts: 
 * The Heretic Crusade (1368-): With the alliance being set up, it is advised to the Chealdean monarch that this crusade occur, based on the understandment that the Anatolian Arzhamic states will eventually turn their conquests to the east. With that, Admiral Mehmet leads an army of 10,500 soldiers through Attalea, while another army of 11,500 marches to Iconium. It is suggested that a supply of 8,000 troops from the Ahuric Empire would be perfect, while it is suggested to the Chaldeans that they prepare for their own full assault on Sinope and the Atoumans.
 * Events:
 * Succession to the Throne: After the death and burial of Andros V, the dynasty of Tarakis falls out of power after Koragos I falls into power due to marriage with former Princess Medea.
 * 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.
 * The Plague: 43% of the population has died in total, dropping over 100% from the initial start of the Plague's rampage throughout Isetium.
 * 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.
 * Tarsus: Re-fortified following the end of the Second Campaign.

Lepai Confederacy
Government: Tribal Confederation Economy: While we are mostly hunter gatherers, some people farm maize, beans, and squash around the more fertile land around the San Juan river. Buffalo is a significant part of the Lepai economy, though they are less significant to us than they are to the Plains Indians.
 * Binanit’a’i: Hashkeh Naaba (1362 onwards)

Ceremonial Capital: Ni Alnii’gi (Monument Valley)

De Facto Capital: Tota' Haal'a (Farmington)

Demographics:
 * Population: 5,000
 * Tota' Haal'a: 310

Religion: 100% Lepai Folk Religion
 * Ethnic Makeup: 99% Lepai (Southern Athabaskan), 1% Other

Military: No standing army, but we have 1,200 warriors who we are able to use in case of a war.

Events:
 * Civilized Neighbors: Learning from our more civilized neighbors, we gain domesticated turkeys, and other cool things.
 * Shrine of the Wechuge: Monument Valley resembles depictions of the mythological land of Tsa' Dziinah, where the Wechuge, a fearsome cannibalistic beast similar to the Wendigo, had its heart melted, and its spirit freed. In Lepai Folk Religion, one could become a Wechuge by becoming too strong or too weak (really lose definition for that), causing one to be overpowered or coveted by the Ancient Spirit Animals.
 * Cannibal Kingdom: We learn of a large nation to our south via scouting expeditions down the Colorado River. While we know little about them, we learn about their human sacrifices on a massive scale, and that their capital is on an island in a lake. Rumors start to circulate that the ruler of this nation is a Wechuge, who demands the flesh blood of humans to survive. This narrative also fits with accounts of the size and wealth of this civilization.
 * Expansion: We begin to expand along the Colorado river and southeast for more fertile land and lands more suitable for our pastoral lifestyle. We face a few troubles in the Colorado, due to the natives already inhabiting the nation, but it's much more easy to expand in OTL New Mexico. While we don't take the land, we reach Modern-Day Albuquerque.

The Heavenly Republic | Yin-Tsu Republic | Respublik Çinnetu

 * Government: Theocratic Republic
 * Heavenly Messenger: Yuen Çin ( b.1317, elected 1367)
 * Capital: Chiko
 * Economy: We are mostly agrarian, but dabble in trade in the Black Sea a bit, as well as some mining. The economy is currently in wartime gear.
 * Demographics (current area we control):
 * Population: 212k
 * Chiko: 25k
 * Kamo: 11k
 * Religion: 96% Orthodox Christianity, 3% Catholicism, 1% other (mostly foreign traders)
 * Ethnicity: 66% Çumñen (Yin-tsu), 25% Crimean Gothic, 7% Varangian, 2% other (mostly Greek, Khazar, or other traders)
 * Military:
 * Army: 4000 swordsmen, 1500 archers, 1000 cavalry
 * Navy: 3 heavy ships, 6 galleys, ~212 merchant ships
 * Wars and Conflicts:
 * Yin-Tsu War of Liberation: We push further along our coast, laying siege to and hopefully taking the city of Aragat. Meanwhile, in the east, a contingent of troops attempts to surround the city of Taganrog and lay siege to it.
 * Events:
 * Bureaucracy?: The beginnings of a national bureaucracy begin to be created, relying quite a bit on church records (as de facto censuses and other records of important figures), but open to anyone who should prove themselves capable. (The Yin-tsu bureaucracy's openness to anyone of sufficient merit dates back to their roots as refugees from ancient China, with the Yin-tsu inheriting a form of the Chinese meritocratic system, complete with examinations, from their forefathers. Although technically open to anyone, the difficulty of the exams, as well as the requirement of mastering both the written Yin-tsu language, as well as spoken and written Varangian, Greek and Latin, essentially limits the bureaucratic pool to wealthy families who can afford to send their children to schools to be educated.)
 * Building a Navy: With the War of Independence still ongoing, efforts are made to create a seaworthy navy for the nascent Yin-tsu nation. So far, 3 heavy ships and 4 gallleys have been built.
 * The Constitutional Convention: In April of 1367, Yuen Çin and many of his benefactors and supporters convened in the Cathedral of Chiko. There, they discussed what the new nation was to become, how it was to be governed, and other things. Eventually, what came out of this meeting was the Heavenly Constitution, which laid out the form of governance of the Yin-tsu nation, as well as the basic law of the country. Taking heavy inspiration from Biblical law, as well as common Roman law and other law codes in Eastern Europe (i.e the Vedenan and Inkerian legal codes), the Heavenly Constitution established the newly-formed Yin-tsu state as a republic, to be headed by a Heavenly Messenger who would be elected once every 5 years. All adult males residing in the nation could vote in elections. The Constitution also mandated a tricameral legislative structure, comprised of the House of Lords, the House of Priests, and the Senate, representing the three main political groups within the nation (the nobility, the clergy, and the commoners), as well as a Supreme Court that was to be independent from the legislative bodies (judges were ineligible to run for any position within the legislative structure, and vice versa). Although the House of Lords and the Supreme Court justices were to be appointed by the Heavenly Messenger, and the House of Priests were appointed by the Bishop of Constantinople, Senators could be elected by the people.

The Kingdom of Nagasato

 * Government: Monarchy
 * Kings: 
 * Muramasa II Heihachirō (1321-present)
 * Born: 1293
 * Ruling House: Muramasa
 * Economy: The Nagasatoan Economy primarily consists of fishing, fruits, and precious metals and gems. The currency is based on copper and silver coins. Due to the rapid expansion, the quality of life of even the lowest of peasants has improved, with the poorest able to feed themselves and their families with ease.
 * Main Religion: Shintoism
 * Cities and Demographics:
 * Population: ~210,000
 * Notable Cities:
 * Nagasato City (Capital)
 * Location: Sarangani Bay
 * Nagasato is a city like no other in the Philippines  Syonan. Carrying the heritage of generations long past, architecture of old is mixed amongst structures of new, with the sea to the south and jungles to the north.
 * Davao (Mining hub)
 * Location: Southern Mindanao
 * Davao was a city created to house the various workers that work in the mines located nearby, which provides for a good majority of the exports from Nagasato
 * Tsuhama
 * Location: Northern Mindanao
 * The location of the old Gambo-ji capital, Tsuhama remains as the stronghold for the province, acting as a "puppet state" of sorts for maintaining control over the region. Also functions similarly to Nagasato City, as trade from the northern Syonan and Japanese islands gets ferried into Tsuhama due to it's closer geographic location than the Nagasatoan cities further south.
 * Cagayan
 * Location: Northern Mindanao
 * Another port city captured during the Nagasatoan Unification of Mindanao. Due to its location, Cagayan is under modifications to becoming one of the hubs for the Nagasatoan navy, with numerous dockyards being produced for housing the growing fleet.
 * Pemagarong
 * Location: Western Mindanao
 * A main trading hub on the Southeast Asian trading route. As such, most, if not all trade funnels through the region, providing the residences of Pemagarong, and all of Nagasato as a whole, a huge source of income, as products and produce gets funneled both into and out of Nagasato as ships come to and from the port city on a daily basis.
 * Souhama City
 * Location: Cebu
 * The old capital of Souhama, like the prior capitals captured, Souhama is kept as the governing hub for the Nagasato-controlled region of Souhama, as well as a means for trading routes from their ally further north to pass through.
 * Wars and Conflicts
 * None.
 * Armed Forces
 * Army: 5%
 * Currently: 10,000
 * Deployed units: None
 * 400 Heavy Breakthrough Elite Infantry
 * 3,400 Light Infiltration Marines
 * 500 Light Mixed Cavalry
 * 6,700 Naval personnel
 * Troops in-”reserve”:
 * 250 Homeland Security Infantry (Military Police)
 * Note that most of the Nagasatoan civilians are also capable to defend themselves, though in most situations, will be outclassed by any well-trained army.
 * Navy: 221 Ships
 * RNFS Yamamoto-class Oceanic Battlecruiser Yamamoto
 * Crew: 70
 * 5 Yamamoto-class Oceanic Battlecruisers
 * Crew: 70
 * 6 Subarashi Pagong-class Oceanic Cruisers
 * Crew: 60
 * 47 Pagong-kai-class Oceanic Cruisers
 * Crew: 50
 * 35 Dātsu-class Oceanic Interceptors
 * Crew: 40
 * 63 Balangays (Lightly armed)
 * Crew: 12
 * 55 Retrofitted Paraws (Lightly armed)
 * Crew: 5
 * 100 Oceanic Transport Vessels
 * Research and Development:
 * Yajiri Aquatic Rockets: The aquatic rockets near completion, with prototype batches being dispatched to the newly constructed Tsuna-class Pylon Boats. In addition, the first batch of “aquatic rockets” are given a name: Yajiri
 * Subarashi Kulog Taihou MkI: Final testing is performed on the new cannon, with plans for refitting the entire fleet with this model of cannon being in the making.
 * Subarashi Pagong-class Oceanic Cruiser: Plans are drafted for a successor to the Pagong-kai class of Oceanic Cruiser. In essence, two modifications are to be made: firstly, they plan on making the ship bigger, able to house the same number of cannons as before, but equipped with the Subarashi Kulog Taihou.
 * Subarashi Dātsu-class Oceanic Interceptors: Like the Subarashi Pagong-class, the Subarashi Dātsu-class is planned to be slightly bigger to house the same number of cannons as before. However, plans are being made to allow the Subarashi Dātsu-class to wield the new Yajiri Aquatic Rockets, launching the water-skipping rockets from either side of the ship.
 * Tsuna-class Pylon Boat: A small boat designed for speed and firepower. Though only crewed by ten people, this ship is slightly bigger than a Balangay and its design is based on the Pagong-class base. This ship is made to replace the Balangays in service, and has the same amount of cannons as the Balangays (2 cannons). However, these ships are designed to launch their payload of Yajiri Aquatic Rockets with ease.
 * Reptilian Growth: Continued breeding of the filipino  Syonanese monitor lizard has caused the species to grow in size, through decades, if not centuries will be required for the lizards to grow even larger.
 * Production:
 * Numerous Orders of the Subarashi Kulog Taihou
 * Around 100 Yajiri Aquatic Rockets
 * 20 Tsuna-class Pylon Boat (Crew: 10)
 * All Nagasatoan Paraws and Balangays are being prepared for scrapping
 * Diplomacy:
 * Hiraga-koku: With a royal marriage underway, efforts are made to improve relationships between the two countries.
 * Rather than referring to each country as Nagasatoan or Hiragan, diplomats refer to citizens of both countries as “filipino”  "Syonanese".
 * Events:
 * Journey to the East: Merchant ships are sent to and from the small outpost on the Nagasatoan outpost in Papua, as the settlers fortify their small fort on the island.
 * Unification of the Philippines  Syonan: Unlike any other expedition, Muramasa II hopes to unite the Philippines  Syonan under one banner through diplomatic means, unlike his father before him. For the time being, he encourages his people to intermingle with the neighbors up north, even allowing merchants from both nations to pass between one another unimpeded. In essence, he hopes to intermingle the two nations enough so he can make requests for both nations to jointly rule the Philippines  Syonan under one flag.
 * The Modernization of the Nagasatoan Navy of 1369: With the prototype aquatic rockets nearing completion, a revamp of the Nagasatoan Navy is in need. In essence, the navy turns to a rock-paper-scissors plan for the type of ships they have in use.
 * In essence, the rocket boats will counter larger ships, interceptors will counter rocket boats, and larger capital ships will counter the interceptors.
 * In addition, the larger ships will work in tandem with larger capital ships to put down supporting fire, to draw the fire of larger vessels while the smaller rocket boats make their torpedo runs.
 * Also, all troops are trained to be able to function as marines, as well as training to grow accustomed to living at sea.
