The Marinid Dynasty of the Moroccan Empire
News from the frontlines arrives at Marrakesh that the invasion is succeeding.

As a result of the Campaign to become a Sea Power, the second of 5 Carracks have been successfully built,

'''Conclusion: The Emperor continues to send supplies to help with the Invasion and 2/5 Carracks are built. 3 more turns until we are a Sea Power '''

'''Economy: 49,050$, Army: 22,000(accounted for), 5,000(in action). Navy: 2/5 Carracks, 28 war galleys, 14 transports (3/5 Carracks in construction). Alliances:  Kingdom of Aragon, Kingdom of Scotland and The Duchy of Savoy Wars: Invasion of  Sus  and  Figuig. '''

Kingdom of France
The invasion of Ghent happens with 4,000 troops, and by the end of the year, the revolt is ended and Ghent is given to Aragon, but we want a monetary compensation of $500 from them. Now, since the HRE troops invaded Savoy, we obt to put more pressure on Savoy to leave "A fellow French nation". Our troops enter and occuppy the rest of Arles and we send an ultimatum to Savoy. Their troops must leave the country or they will face a 2-front invasion. 10,000 units are gathered in Lyon. However, the clash with the incident with the English navy forces France to increase it's naval expenditure, we build 3 carracks, 7 war galleys and 3 transports. As well, we recruit more units with $1,000. 2/3 of the French navy are put in the northern ports and we wait for those cities to be totally operative.

In external politics, we accept the trade request from Norway and the alliance with Castille, and we purpose the Ottomans a trade agreement, the same agreement is delivered to Lithuania and Sweden.

Kingdom of England
An alliance is formed with Scotland and the two nations start trading with each other. The English navy is increased by 200 ships. Many are sent from the English Channel to the Atlantic to stop France from being a Water Power, many still remain in the English Channel. Wanting the Channel Islands back, we send 20 ships with troops on them to the Channel Islands, and block the two Islands. Even though may seen as an act of war, the English army is highly increased by 2,500 troops. The Ships also contain canons, ready to shoot at France if they come. An invasion of the Channel Islands is set and 2/3 of the troops are sent of the ships and occupy the 2 Islands in a matter of hours. Not so much high casualties as no French troops are really there. We hold French citizens on the Islands as hostages in case France invades. If they do, we massacre all the French populated parts of the town. England also threatens that if France do not back away from Savoy, they send Armies to the coast and will kill innocent citizens and invade France.

Duchy of Bavaria
Bavaria invades the city-states bordering or surrounded by it with 2,000 troops each. They build another 100 units to increase the total to 10,100. They decline England's alliance offer and Burgundy's trade offer. The Bavarians decide to build Landshut in the southeast, bringing their current reserve to $39,000. We continue to improve relations with France and invade Savoy to free Provence.

Kingdom of Ayyuthaya
Military:

Sukhothai is finally fully taken, and has been annexed by Kingdom of Ayyuthaya. Pasai gives up seeing that there's no way to win against Ayyuthaya, and depletes their troops. Lan Na is ripe for taking so Chakrii Han the IV decides to declare war on them, sending the army in Sukhothai and 1.000 more to Lan Na. Ayyuthaya decides to focus their army more on Pegu region, so they start using the resources of it's vassal to make 1.000 troops there. Ayyuthaya finally finishes it's conscription program and gains it's 2.000 men in their capital. Also they buy 750 men for 1.000$.

Current Military: 26.200(4.000[5.000] going to Lan Na, 7.000 in Ayyuthaya, 4.200 Kedah, 3.000 Phimai, 5.000 in Pasai) + Pegu(3.000 in Pegu).

Current Navy: 8 War Galleys, 13 Transports

Diplomacy:

The King of Ayyuthaya, Chakrii Han the IV wishes to make a royal marriage with the queen of Cambodia(accepted). Ayyuthaya starts to make allies with small tribes in Sumatra, and they start integrating them to their Kingdom(10px in Sumatra.)

Economy:

Chakrii Han the IV collects taxes from Ayyuthaya's cities, and the new trading agreement with Malacca also boosts our income.

Current Income: 300(+50 after Lamphun recovers)

Current Money Reserves: 47.000$

Kingdom of Hungary
Invades Bosnia with 7,000 troops but would slowly lose gradually by next year due to battles, we increased our military around 500, so that makes it around 31,500. They focus on invading Bosnia than defending the country which makes it almost vunlerable to any attacking nation. We also increased the navy by 4 war galleys and 1 carrack only, to complete the fleet, however no transport is required yet unless we approach any island that has no strait. We also begin improving relations to Poland but also not willing to send a trade offer yet, also improving relations to Moldavia, just in case of allying them once we have an established relationship to each other. They are also thinking of requesting a trade agreement to Byzantium/East Roman Empire but probably not but it's up to their choice since the Hungarian Kingdom want to increase their income and avoid overspending it further.

Their economy is not doing well, thanks to spending money for armies and navy.

Summary for navy and military: 10 war galleys, 3 carracks, 31,500 troops (7,000 in Bosnia, 5,000 in Buda, 3,000 in a fort near the borders of Moldavia, 1,000 (8,000) stationed in each city)

Money Reserves: $43,400

Income: $500

Savoy and France portion the country.

Savoy annexes a small western portion (which will be negotiated later).

Until terms are negotiated, Savoyard troops will halt their occupation, but will withdraw only in. Peaceful solution.

Economy:

Leonardo orders as much money as possible to be found in the occupied part of Provence and returned to Savoy. The economy reaches a height of 50,300.

Military:

Due to Sovyard troops halting their advance in June, the military losses are mainly from disease, and one failed Provencien assault on the garrison. The military is now around 9,900.

Golden Horde
Our brave men are liberating the land north of the Azov Sea. We have recruited 2150 men through conscription, assembling in Sarai.

Emirate of Najd
The 800 man force in the tribal regions of Rub al-Kha'li encounters a 1,000-man army from the tribes. A battle breaks out.

Battle of the Tuwaiq Mountains

NAJD = 800 | RUB AL-KHA'LI TRIBES = 1,000

800 x 5 = 4000

1000 x 3 = 3000

4,000 - 3,000 = 1,000

1,000 / 5 = 200

Najd has won the battle with 200 survivors remaining. The remainder of the army halts and sends a messenger back to Fort Ahmar requesting reinforcements. 800 troops will be dispatched to the tribal regions to reinforce the army later on. The recently recruited 300-man infantry will move into Fort Ahmar for replacement of the lost men.

Income from cities and trade is gathered, and recent plans to construct a new city is in order, although not in action yet.

Buraidah = $50 Ha'il = $100 Trade = $100

Eastern Roman Empire (Byzantines)
Ottomans (in chat) accepted the Byzantine's request to invade Theodoro (for a launch base) and (Ottoman) Morea. The Emperor sends 7,500 Troops to Ottoman Morea to put down the revolt. But to their surprise, the rebels welcomed the Emperor's Men (Assuming the purpose of the revolt is to overthrow turkish rule and establish a Pro-Greek State). The 5,000 Greek rebels led by Demetrios Palaiologos joined the Byzantine Troops, making it 12,500, an additional 500 non-greek and Byzantine sympathizer rebels later joined, making it 13,000.

However, 20,000 Morean Albanians, led by Manuel Kantakouzenos, Disagreed with this and plans to establish his own Albanian State as Despot. He began sieging pro-Greek fortresses, he was successful, but had a Pyrrhic victory. As in the assault, he lost 7,600 men, while the Pro-greek forces only lost 1,500. With newly purchased cannons from Hungary, Greek fire, and Grenades. The Pro-Greek populace harrassed the Pro-Albanians while the Byzantine Forces ambush them from behind. Eventually, the Byzantines had 10,000 Forces left while the Pro-Albanian forces had 5,300. The Byzantines assaulted the fortresses the Pro-Albanians took. However a offensive strategy is new to the Byzantines as they were defending for decades. So they also suffered heavy losses, despite being more well-equipped than the Pro-Albanians. The Byzantines were victorious with only 7,500 men left.

With Ottoman Permission, the Byzantines annexed Ottoman Morea (former Sparta).

Back at home Emperor Constantine XI still awaits for the pending requests from it's trade agreements of '''Scotland, Venice, Sweden, Poland-Lithuania, Savoy, Timurids, Mamluks, England, and Castille.

Troops of Burgundy continue marching with troops of Lorraine, Luxembourg, Bavaria and Cologne into Savoy's land, and occupying Northern areas.
