(For the next turn)

Iranian Empire:

 * Government: Imperial (semi-Feudal) Monarchy
 * Ruler (King, President, etc.):
 * Justinian "The Wonderful" III (deceased 623 CE)
 * Justinian IV (current)
 * Economy: The economy continues to be based around trade maintained through the Silk Route and various Silk-based coastal factories. Additional factors that continue to maintain the economy's stability are spices, textiles, carpentry, and pearls. As with the state of war proving slightly successful, tribute from local warlords is recieved further, allowing for the economy to stay slightly more stable due to paying off the military debts from militarizing such a large army.
 * Capital: Yazd
 * Population: 18,500,000
 * Religion: 55% Zoroastrian, 25% Folk Christianity, 20% Arzham
 * Military: With the major campaign in Assyria hasn't shown valuable successes, military conscriptions are put into place, garnering an additional 65,000 soldiers, this being the final legion until Alagadda and Assyria itself collapses. Auxiliary forces join the total Persian army, totalling TBD.
 * Wars and Conflicts: 
 * Assyria: The last extended legion, numbering 65,000, comes in as an additional re-inforcement in Alagadda. With this legion being added, the final push details roughly 95,000 strong.
 * Roma Oriental: With the Turkish auxiliaries of 10,000 and a large cluster of mercenaries being hired, a second push for Hecatompylus occurs, with Turkish auxiliaries attacking from the east and the mercenaries attacking from the south.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Events:
 * De-Romanization: Following the collapse of the Roman Empire and the subsequent vacuum of power, the Shapurid Dynasty turns towards a more ruthless and imperial form of siezing that power through a means of increasing the military, as well as removing most and all aspects of Roman culture in the nation. This includes architecture, as well as removing forms of western thought from the primary government, basing the system around much of the prior dynasties, such as the Seleucid, however it is updated so as to keep up with current Iranian nationalism and new discoveries.
 * Christianity: As Zoroastrianism become more and more decentralized as a religion, many followers turn to Folk Christianity as a means of furthering their ultimate goal of redemption in the eyes of God, but that is flexible to their own spirituality rather than standard Christianity.
 * Annexation of Elam: Marriage between Justinian III's youngest son and Ehsan II's eldest daughter occurs. With historical ties made through various periods of Roman imperialism and Persian culture, this brings both countries closer together, and solidifies the possibility of an Iranian annexation of Elam.
 * Persian Arzham: As Arzham continues to grasp peoples in eastern Iran, various denominations have formed in the east as a result, with many features being from Zoroastrianism and Christianity. This becomes known as Persian Arzham, which is different depending on which person is asked. This form of Arzham remains specific to eastern Iran, while Arzham itself continues to prosper in Kandahar.
 * Turkic Auxiliaries: With the capture of major Roma Oriental cities, numerous hunnic armies are manifested under local Iranian-alligned military generals and promises of wealth and "redemption in the Eyes of God", and as such, allows for the Legion of Al-Oriental to number 10,000 strong.
 * Piracy: Iranian piracy starts appearing across all of the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman, with much of it being secretly funded by Iranian warlords and regional oligarchies. The Iranian Emperor himself is uninvolved in the piracy, creating the illusion that Iran also features piracy. Specific targets include Muscat-Oman, Gerrha, and Hormuz. Small piracy occurs around coastal India, with select pirate-owned monopolies on spice being formed.
