Anakhronismos (Map Game)

2019. A geopolitical mess, saturated with conflicts both notorious and unseen. Superpowers bicker over trade, upstart nuclear hellraisers left unhindered, entire populations murdered. One might want to return to a simpler era. One before wars were fought over trade. One before weapons of mass destruction. One before the births of the murderers and the massacred.

This turned out to be a horrible idea.

1444. A geopolitical mess, saturated with conflicts both notorious and devastating. Great powers bicker over territorial disputes, upstart juggernauts left unchecked, entire populations massacred. Millions wish they could return to their time, after a major anomalous event transported entire nations and peoples six centuries in retrograde.

Events

 * New York Country: The city of New York, initially sustaining its population off the many vertical farms, briefly converted Central Park into farmland before moving their agricultural activities into the American mainland. After years of development, farms and ranches now dot the former state of New York, with the occasional herd of now-feral horses being seen. Speaking of which, horses have become the primary mode of transport, with petroleum reserves either being locked for conservation or completely depleted.
 * The Tulip War: Named for the fields of tulips that the anti-Ottoman forces stormed past while securing territory from Candar to Karaman, the Tulip War/War of Vengeance/Operation Perfidious Turk is in full swing. Ottoman forces are absolutely caught off guard by the Armenian Air Force in the Anatolia, while the Albanian planes take to the skies to scare the perfidious Turks shitless while they begin offensives in tandem with Byzantium across Hellenic Ottoman territories. The Serbians begin moving into Bulgaria at random to give the Ottomans a real headache, led by Serbian veterans of the Yugoslav Wars that were Exiled while in Albania during the Event. Even the Bulgars are stunned by the blasting of accordion music. Meanwhile, offensives held by Trebizond and Armenia are successful in securing the coastline of the Ottomans, and Georgian ships maintain their blockades on Ottoman ports. Qara Qoyunlu provides a contingency of 10,000 soldiers to provide auxiliary support. A good deal of the Ottoman Levantine Army has been trapped in eastern Anatolia, but it is noted about a third are quite a ways away in the western provinces of Anatolia based on aerial reconnaissance. It is not clear why this is so but the allies have recommended pushing on. Skanderbeg continues to terrorise the Ottomans in the Balkans, with his regiment earning the title of "Red Falcon" due to their speed, effectiveness and lethality. Morale is high for the Albanians and Serbs. The Sultan is frequently seen writing texts for unknown purposes. Venetian support allows for the movement of Albanian and Byzantine ships to keep the Ottoman fleet from escaping into the Mediterranean.
 * Mamluk-Israeli War: Israeli offensives break into Tripoli (the one on the Levant) and are ambushed by Mamlukean archers hidden in the buildings. This proves to be one of the deadliest battles in the war as soldiers attacked by arrows fire indiscriminately on multiple occasions out of panic or the “I’ll take you down with me” mentality, contributing to civilian casualties and friendly fire. After 11 days of battle it is confirmed Tripoli is completely secured by Israeli forces. In other news, Israeli survey corps successfully identify several pre-Event oil fields in Syria in the middle of the desert. The Sinai Front continues to hold, although it has become glaringly obvious that the Mamluks have indeed been working with the Tobruk government of Libya.
 * The Moorish at the Portuguese Court: Portugal, agreeing to the requests of the aspiring Emir to overthrow the existing Emir to implement a friendlier leadership.
 * Grand Theft Mesopotamia: It is noted that on certain occasions some Israeli oil trucks go missing in the Syrian desert. It is not known how or why, but the Mossad believes this to be the work of Hamas. The superstitious blame this on djinns, as the disappearances occur usually at night, far from any major town.
 * The Continuation of the Hundred Years' War: The war, which has been going for 112 years between England, France and their allies over Plantagenet claims on the French throne. The Treaty of Tours, signed in 1444, collapsed due to new hostilities with France, and both sides began going to war some time in April 1449. A contingent of the French Army, under the command of Jean Bureau, sieged down the towns of Rouen, Harfleur, and Honfleur and taking over the eastern half of Normandy, while another, led by Jean de Dunois, occupied most of Aquitaine, save for the city of Bordeaux and the surroundings and some areas near Biarritz. Maine was also occupied by French forces after the English yielded from giving them the province.
 * Sengoku Jidai: Hatakeyama faces a stagnating front with Tsutsui, however eventually manages to secure the Daimyo and position troops before Kyoto. Ogasawara is easily taken, however a massive build-up of forces is seen in neighbouring Mino and Shiba. Nanbu launches an offensive in Ando territory in Hokkaido, but is unable to break through a naval blockade.

NPC Turns

 * Albania and Byzantium: They meet with Venetian emissaries but do not make an effort to reveal the mechanics behind the firearms to them, to which they believe to be "guns that dispense the will of the Lord". Byzantium thanks the Pope for his kind offer and makes an effort to heed the words of his Holiness.
 * Wyoming: They agree to JPG's proposal and look forward to co-operation.

Republic of Armenia

 * Government: Unitary semi-presidential republic under a state of emergency to last until whenever the Tulip War/War of Vengeance ends
 * President: Armen Sarkissian
 * Prime Minister: Nikol Pashinyan
 * Laws and Policies:
 * Scorched Earth Policy in the Occupied Territories: See “Scorched Earth”
 * Economy: Much the same as last year, although the economy continues to lean towards a military-industrial complex.
 * Demographics:
 * Population: 3,166,100
 * Religion: 94.8 Christian (92.5% Armenian Apostolic,) 0.8% Yazidi Muslim, 0.2% Pagan, 4% None/Other
 * Ethnicity: 97.9% Armenian, 1.9% other pre-Event peoples (Yazidis, Kurds, Russians, etc.), 0.2% post-Event peoples (Byzantines, archaic Georgians, etc.)
 * Military:
 * Armenian Military: 70,000 troops are participating in the Tulip War, while 10,000 remain stationed in Armenia. 55 tanks, 85 other motorized infantry, and 12 warplanes are also participating in the war.
 * Army:
 * Troops: 80,000 troops, 32,000 reserves
 * Tanks: 20 T-80 tanks, 137 T-72 tanks, 8 T-54/55 tanks
 * Other motorized infantry vehicles: 80 BMP-1s, 7-BMP-1Ks, 55 BMP-2s, 12 BRM-1Ks, 11 BTR-60s, 21 BTR-70s, 4 BTR-80s, 145 MT-LBs, 5 BMD-1s, 120 BRDM-2 scout vehicles

 * Military Prescence of Other Countries:
 * Russian bases in Armenia: The Russian 102nd Military Base, as well as all its equipment and personnel, have all been brought along during temporal displacement as well. The base is cooperating with the Armenian government, as they have realized there is nowhere else to go, and currently act as a private mercenary force working with the Armenian Armed Forces.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Ottomans: continue to die
 * Venice: i’ll give you guns if you’ll give me fleet basing rights (aha EU4 reference)
 * Events:
 * Operation Perfidious Turk, pt.2: With much of the Ottoman Levantine army trapped behind our front lines, our main priority is now to eradicate the Levantine Army and secure the eastern portions of Ottoman territory. The 60,000 troops fighting in the war are split into two contingents of 40,000 and 20,000 respectively. The larger contingent is to track down and neutralize the Levantine Army, while the smaller army is sent further west with orders to capture the city of Ankara, a major Ottoman city in the Ottoman supply chain. Another 10,000 troops are sent to the occupied territories, to be used in pacifying the occupied territories. We also institute a scorched earth policy in our occupied territory (further explained in "Scorched Earth"). No changes are made to the plans of our allies, except Byzantium, who are encouraged to break off a portion of their army to cross the Dardanelles into mainland Anatolia, and secure the other side of the vital waterway.
 * Scorched Earth: We institute a total scorched earth in our occupied areas in Anatolia: every single field not deemed essential to Armenian Army resource stockpiles is to be burned to the ground. Likewise, all water sources not deemed essential to the Army are to be poisoned. All food caravans from outside the occupied areas not registered in Armenia, Georgia, Qara Qoyunlu, Trebizond, Byazntium, Albania, Venice or Serbia are to be stopped, their drivers killed and the food redistributed to Armenian food stocks. [TOP SECRET] We begin forcibly recruiting able-bodied men in the occupied territories to serve in the army, mostly as laborers, human shields and cannon-fodder. The women, weak, and childen are told to leave their homes and belongings as an "evacuation of war-torn areas" and forced to march to either Candar or Karaman. The total scorched earth policy fron earlier ensures little to no possibility of their survival of the trek due to complete lack of food and water, and Armenian military escorts will accompany them to their destination (accompany here being a code word for "brutally rape and murder at random"). Armenian soldiers are encouraged to loot and burn down Turkish villages.
 * The Venetians: After hearing of Venice’s failed attempts to obtain guns from Albania and Byzantium for purposes of fighting their own war with the Turk, we decide to meet with them and help them ourselves. President Armen Sarkissian leaves Yerevan one morning in 1449/2024, and is driven to the Georgian border, where he is then picked up by a horse caravan. He then makes it to the port of Poti, where he boards a newly-commissioned Georgian Exiled-style ship, and makes the voyage to Venice, to meet the Doge. With him, he brings a few ingots of gold as a gift, as well as several examples of modern technology, including guns, as well as smaller things like a radio and a smartphone. He explains to the Doge our situation as one of the Exiled, and gets to negotiating trade terms. We propose that, in exchange for allowing Armenian merchants and ships access to Venetian ports, we will regularly airlift gun shipments to Venetian ports in the Aegean, and introduce Exiled technology to the Most Serene Republic of Venice.
 * Internet: Basic Internet access has been restored to government buildings and small portions of Yerevan; however, Internet access remains a luxury out of grasp for most in Armenia.
 * Uplifting: Modern technology is slowly but surely being introduced into the societies of our allies. Tractors and fertilizer can sometimes be seen in rural areas of these countries, replacing the more labor-intensive plowing techniques and manure fertilizer. In cities like Constantinople, Athens, and Tblisi, electric power is now reliably available and taken almost for granted, and Armenian industry magnates have begun to set up factories on their soil, manufacturing everything from processed food to war machines. More people are becoming treated of illnesses that once had no cure, and more people have become vaccinated. Serious epidemics have become rarer and less damaging in these areas over the past few years. The forefront of these uplifting schemes seems to be Alagadda, as the sheer amount of Armenian and Israeli oil prospectors has led to a booming and prosperous town, with all the amenities one could find in Exiled countries. Electrification and wiring of potable tap water into smaller towns and more rural areas has begun, and plans for a general hospital in Constantinople stocked with modern medicine and staffed by Armenian doctors are being drawn.
 * Monuments: The Monument to the Exiled and the Monument to the Lost are built in Yerevan, commemorating those who were lost in the Late Medieval Age and those who were not, respectively. These monuments are located near the site of the Armenian Genocide memorial monument.

 * Events:
 * The Tulip War: The Papal Security Council convenes and debates on how to react to the Tulip War. It is decided that the Holy See will support the Armenians, the Albanians and the Venetians.However, the Vatican remains to call for the war to end as quick as possible. [Top secret] The Pope sends Cardinal Friedrich Marx, the Papal Secretary for Anatolia and Ottoman Affairs to Armenia to confirm that the Holy See will receive a part of southern Anatolia after the war.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Venice: We heard of your small gift to my friend, Pope Eugene, the Pontiff of the Papal States. I do not know how to thank you for your generous gift. Please accept 200,000 ducates, which will be a small reward for your generous gift.
 * Albania: Please accept a small gift of 30,000 lek, which will hopefully help you bring the war to a speedy end.
 * Armenia: Please accept a small gift of 55,000 dram, which will hopefully help you bring the war to a speedy end.

Most Serene Republic of Venice

 * Government: Thalassocracy / Venetian merchant republic.​​​​​
 * Doge: Francesco Foscari
 * Military:
 * Army: 25,000 troops, infantry & cavalry combined.
 * Navy: At least 3,180 merchant ships doubling as warships. The Venetian Arsenal constructs ships at a pace of one merchant/warship approximately every two days.
 * Demographics:
 * Population: approximately 2,5 million.
 * Venice: ~181,000
 * Economy: With extensive control of Mediterranean trade by Venetian merchant fleets, the Venetian economy is bolstered by trade routes over Southern Europe and North Africa.
 * Wars: 
 * Venetian-Ottoman War / Tulip War (as called by Byzantium) (continued): Venetian merchant ships are fitted with cannons to make into warships and sent out to surround and blockade the Turkish coastline and the Ionian Sea. Orders are given to attack any Ottoman vessel if they attempt to break the blockade, and assist Byzantine vessels in their doings. The aim of the war is to take over Ionian islands owned by the Ottomans to be used as supply stops for Venice's fleets.
 * Events:
 * Ragusan Election Shenaningans (continued): Venetian spies were sent to work on building a spy network, working on rigging the elections of Ragusa to bring in a Rector (title of ruler of the Republic of Ragusa) who would be willing to hand over the Republic into part of La Serenissima.
 * Diplomacy: 
 * Papal States: We would like to send a formal thank you.
 * Armenia: We accept their offer. Surely nothing bad can come of this?

Republic of Hong Kong

 * Government: Unitary parliamentary republic
 * President of Hong Kong: Joshua Wong (since 2022/1447) (next election due 2028/1453)
 * Prime Minister of Hong Kong: Lawrence Su
 * Hong Kong Legislative Council: (next election due 2025/1450)
 * Democratic Party of Kong Kong (75 representatives) (merger of all pro-democracy camps)
 * Social Democratic Movement (23 representatives) (official opposition)
 * Independent (2 representatives)
 * Military: The Hong Kong Armed Forces (HKAF) comprises of 65,000 personnel. Weapons belonging to the PCC are now being taken away and be put into the hands of the HKAF, though ammunition and such had been depleted so much from these battles that they were almost meaningless. Arms factories were built in workshops and former factories that used to produce manufacturing goods for civilians. Mines are being established in the Ming Dynasty to bring raw resources into Hong Kong to start manufacturing some experimental firearms (albeit they are partially crude as Hong Kong doesn't have much skills in building and designing guns) and copying some of the weapon designs of those held by the PCC, but even so the priority of building firearms are low in favour of reconstruction and melee combat. The HKAF is aware of a peasant uprising in Guangzhou that is suspected to be carried out by the PCC (with captives of ex-PCC soldiers claiming so, but not yet verified due to the distance) and would be ready to defend, should they continue to grow stronger.
 * Diplomacy: N/A
 * Economy: Efforts to rebuild infrastructure that was destroyed from the war are underway and to rebuild the economy from scratch and hopefully turn Hong Kong into a trading hub and a manufacturing powerhouse too. Currency, of what remains of the Hong Kong dollar is not used a lot since the crisis, but the notes have been ditched in favour of only using coins to trade, since the value of these coins are more important than banknotes. Food on the other hand, had been largely stabilised and secure with deals with the Ming Dynasty to give Hongkongers food, with small community farms across Hong Kong being considered the emergency reserve for food, along with fishing in case of relations changing or trading has been blocked. Raw and building materials, along with essential fossil fuels such as coal and oil (which might not be attainable in China though) are prioritised, so to electrify the city again after the last of the resource that was gone into these power plants.
 * Events:
 * Further Investment: Hongkonger industrialists and entrepreneurs, despite the heavy taxes, decide to further invest on exploiting the resources of China through to the second year. Factories and refineries in Hong Kong (which 60% of these resources are being transferred back), whether be makeshift or are open again have already produced refined resources for the purpose of reconstruction, the production of weapons and ammunition and to build a fleet of new ships. One of them however on 2024/1449 has proposed that they would want to search for oil in the Ming Dynasty and build a fuel refinery somewhere in Kowloon (which would take three to five years to find appropriate equipment and such to its efficiency), so that they could eventually refuel the captured PCC/PLA ships within Hong Kong and any other ships dependent on fuel. This idea hadn't taken off successfully, but eventually, they would need to do it in order to protect their own territorial waters, not just small fishing boats equipped with machine guns for instance. It is also to profit Hong Kong even further by continuing its investment in the Ming Dynasty through what some say as the lobbying of Hongkonger refugees turned advisors.
 * Reconstruction (Part Three / Final?): Electrification of the suburbs in Hong Kong were finally finished, but these are limited. New power plants are being built, while for the first time, the first permit for building new homes are being built, tearing down old frail buildings or those that are seen unfit for new buildings that are 'environmentally-oriented' for the purpose of maximising emergency food production by creating rooftop farms, which might not affect very much, but it only makes a difference. This is the third year since the reconstruction policies have been enacted by the government. As a result, this would be the final stage of reconstruction. The economy of Hong Kong has already recovered from being largely primitive and is seeking towards the second stage by next year. However, along with the second phase, there is also another legislative election (this time with universal suffrage) just approaching next year, which will determine the fate of the reconstruction policies and to revive Hong Kong into a major trading hub as it was, with free enterprise. Polls show that there is high confidence that the Democratic Party of Hong Kong would retain a majority, but the ex-PCC-aligned Social Democratic Movement is set to continue to rise through the next decade as stigmatisation of exiled Mainlanders and the PCC supporters in general decrease for the older generation as they are living under a different system.
 * Two Vessels to the South: Two sail-dependent ships, that are built over the past two years (not the larger explorer and new smaller trading vessels which are still under construction) with the intent of being explored to any direction and to be reported back. One ship is destined to land on what's left of the Philippines and one is to actually go south to the South China Sea. Since there were PLA ships arriving near Hong Kong in sight and are also caught in the crossfire by the Taiwanese navy, many Hongkongers are willing to sacrifice themselves to go to the south. Again, both of these ships are to report back with relevant information.

Shogunate of Japan

 * Government: Unitary parliamentary constitutional monarchy, under a state of emergency for an indefinite amount of time effective from November 11th, 2019/1444.
 * Emperor/Shogun: Hisahito
 * Prime Minister: Yoshimi Seiji
 * Capital: Tokyo
 * Economy: Doing better than it was last year as it slowly grows due to increased trade with allied/neutral daimyos as well as the JPG.
 * Demographics: ​​​​​
 * Population (total): 37,295,000
 * Tokyo: 14,317,191
 * Kanagawa: 9,133,094
 * Saitama: ​​​​​​7,618,198
 * Chiba: 6,236,517
 * Military:
 * Wars and Conflicts:
 * Sengoku Jidai: With the capture of Utsonomiya, all high-class individuals such as the daimyo himself and many of the samurai are forced to commit seppuku, like usual. Once the seppuku'ing is done and over with, occupation of the daimyo is handed over to Satake. Ogasawara, also being basically fully occupied, is annexed by us and the daimyo and his samurai are forced to commit seppuku like usual, again. Using our foothold in newly-annexed Ogasawara, we begin a massive push through the Toki daimyo with a force totalling around 10,000 men. We also send 2 submarines and 1 destroyer up to the Tsugaru Strait in order to help reduce the naval blockade put in place there.
 * Japanese Armed Forces:
 * Military Production: With the trade in materials such as bronze and lead from the daimyos, we have been able to ramp up our military production and no longer have to use crude materials, besides the plastic, which we still have a large supply of.
 * Japanese Army (Teikokugun): The Teikokugun currently consists of:
 * 36,750 active soldiers
 * 5,000 reserve soldiers
 * 56 tanks
 * 80 armored fighting vehicles (AFVs)
 * 15 self-propelled artillery
 * 40 towed artillery
 * 15 rocket projectors
 * Japanese Maritime Force (Kaijogun): The Maritime Force currently consists of:
 * 30,000 active soldiers
 * 5,000 reserve soldiers
 * 3 aircraft carriers (2 Japanese, 1 American)
 * 6 destroyers
 * 1 corvette
 * 4 submarines
 * 4 patrol vessels
 * 10 mine warfare vessels
 * Japanese Air Force (Kugun): The Air Force of Japan currently consists of:
 * 20,000 active soldiers
 * 5,000 reserve soldiers
 * 63 fighters
 * 52 attack aircraft
 * 15 transport craft
 * 25 trainer aircraft
 * 35 non-attack helicopters
 * 10 attack helicopters
 * Diplomacy:
 * Uesugi: You should let Shogun Hisahito marry your daughter, Chiaki. It'll be a useful political alliance for both of us.
 * JPG: We can try.
 * Events:
 * Development of an Electric Cargoship: We continue to pour time and money into the research of creating a cargoship that can be powered solely by electricity, with no need for oil.
 * Electricity Restored in Saitama and Kanagawa: After years of continuing construction on biomass plants, as well as new wind turbines and some hydroelectric generators, we can proudly say that, right now, all of Japan is in the electric light. Well, about 80% of it anyway. Many of those who lived in rural areas of the exiled prefectures don't have an electric hookup at the moment.

Republic of California

 * Government: Democratic Republic with two principal organs; the Council and the Governor's Office.
 * Governor: Eric Garcetti (D)
 * Ruling Party: Democratic (Senate and Governor), Republican (Assembly)
 * Council:
 * Senate (125): Democratic (76), Republican (43), Liberty (6)
 * Joint Assembly (138): Democratic (64), Republican (73), Liberty (1)
 * Supreme Court
 * Democrat: 4
 * Republican: 4
 * Independent: 2
 * Laws and Policies:
 * Supreme Court: As an act of bipartisanship, Governor Eric Garcetti appoints Republican and Independent judges to the newly created Supreme Court of California. The judges are picked from the now disbanded Superior Court of Los Angeles.
 * Internet Communications: The Internet is partly restored in El Segundo and Bel Air. Basic security services are up, URL links and HTML markup is working, and several websites have popped up. Google, once a technology giant, has been relegated to only operating a meek email system, since it only had limited assets in Los Angeles. Since optic cables are running all over the country, it is only a matter of time before the internet is restored to the entire nation.
 * Colonization, Baby!: Californian settlers have snaked up and down the Californian coast, some snapping pictures of what San Fransisco and San Diego looked like before colonization. Iron Fort becomes known as the Gateway to Adventure, as farms and oil rigs pop up all over Ventura and Riverside County. In fact, the nation of California has devised new regulations for "land claiming", similar to how the American government gave away land in the west almost for free.
 * Naval Stuff: The California Naval Directive is signed, directing the majority of military funds to be placed towards expanding the naval fleet.
 * History (probably) won't repeat itself: Hopuka grows as thirty new settlers arrive. Three babies are born there this year, and the settlement continues to thrive and be successful. Plans to "modernize" the natives are debated, but are shot down quickly. The locals on O'ahu quickly get used to our presence, and efforts to teach them are underway.
 * Diplomacy: The Embassy of California is established in Cheyenne, Wyoming.
 * Military Might: Several contracts with private military businesses have allowed us to grow our weapon stockpile, and the ever decreasing price of steel and electronics means our military is growing, even if it is very slow growth.
 * Capital: Los Angeles City
 * Economy: Manfucaturing grows, as aerospace and technology skyrocket. The Pacifica Stock Index is created to restart LA's financial system, and 39 companies are listed by the end of the year. Americana Airlines, Chevron, and Disney are growing the largest due to good news from all three companies, while DirectTV, Bank of America, and McDonald's sink.
 * Demographics:
 * Population: 13,857,192
 * Californian National Army (CNA):
 * 20,000 active soldiers
 * 55,000 reserve soldiers
 * 10 combat tanks
 * 25 AFVs
 * Californian People's Navy:
 * (NOTE: The majority of the CPN's naval fleet arises from NS Seal Beach, a munitions and loading facility. The two combat ships we have were arriving in Seal Beach from Hawaii and Guam, and were fixed up in 2022.)
 * 1 corvette
 * 2 frigate
 * 15 patrol/response ships (Coast Guard)
 * California Air Force:
 * 19 transport craft
 * 17 non-attack helicopters
 * 19 fighters
 * Space and Missile Systems Center (SMC)
 * Range and Network Division (online; 1.9% efficiency)
 * Operationally Responsive Space Office (closed)
 * Space Logistics Directorate (communications cut)
 * Advanced Systems and Development Directorate (online; 100% efficiency)
 * MILSATCOM Systems Directorate (online; 0.084% efficiency)
 * Defense Weather Systems Directorate (offline)
 * Infrared Space Systems Directorate (offline)
 * Launch Enterprise Directorate (offline)
 * Space Superiority Systems Directorate (online; 6% full efficiency)
 * Global Positioning Systems Directorate (online; 5.4% NAVSTAR full efficiency)
 * Internet Communications Relay (online; 4% of Los Angeles covered)
 * Conflicts:
 * Diplomacy:
 * Japan: We are sending three oil freighters right this second. Our only request is that we are paid in gold, as we have no currency conversion businesses to convert Japanese yen into U.S dollars.
 * Alaska: We would like to sign the same Three T's agreement that we signed with Wyoming.
 * Mexico City: We are not "colonizing", merely repopulating this virgin land.
 * Events:
 * The Holy Land of Wyoming: Hundreds of Californian companies diverge upon Wyoming. Several companies merge offices and assets, and Los Angeles International Airport is reopened. Its only flights are towards Cheyenne Regional Airport, which has been expanded to allow for the ever growing amount of discontented Angelinos, after being stuck in the big city for years. Boeing in particular sees a big bounce in revenue, as several investors buy up the remaining assets of Virgin Airlines, United Airlines, and Delta Airlines to unite them into Americana Airlines.
 * Wikimedia Foundation: With offices in Los Angeles from pre-Exile, the Wikimedia Foundation still exists and has been quietly operating the past few years. Now, with internet services nearly up again, the Wikimedia Foundation has bought data servers and restarted up Wikipedia, now standing proudly at over 1,370 articles. However, the Wikimedia Foundation has founded Wikihistory, an organization dedicated to preserving pre-Exiled historical artifacts (often called Lost History artifacts). For example, it worked with the Los Angeles Historical Society and the Getty Center in securing a 1766 French painting, and is currently on a mission to photograph Native Americans before European arrival.
 * Manufacturing: Our manufacturing abilities grow as industrial areas of Los Angeles are revitalized, many factories re-opening in poorer areas of the nation, where unemployment is rampant and low paying blue collar jobs are desperately needed.
 * Faux Meat: With the rarity of livestock in Los Angeles, smart innovators have resorted to perfecting already existing fake meat, widely becoming popular throughout the country. Once common foods such as potatoes and greens have become rare, as nuts become the cheapest and most popular food in the nation.

Events

 * Parres Accords: A white peace now exists between Mexico City and Parres, and it is evident that the Aztec incursions on the former have ceased at around the same interval. The Republic of Parres, nearly a third of the size of Mexico City after years of absorbing defective Mexican districts, puts forth a proposal to trade food for weapons and materials, seeing as the Mexican agricultural effort is quite pathetic. A plot of empty land is also provided by the Aztecs for actual agricultural efforts to be carried out.
 * The Tulip War: The Armenian and allied troops stalked the main Ottoman Levantine Army into Ramazan, and eventually defeated them at the Battle of Batman, with the soldiers clashing at the river for which the battle was named. Despite the best efforts of Armenia and it's allies, they have failed to prevent the spread of modern firearms into Ottoman ranks, and many a soldier are lost to an unexpected 7.62x39 from the perfidious Turk. Despite the dire situation, only around 11,800 men are lost. Ankara is easily taken, already heavily damaged by the Armenian bombing runs. The Albanian-Serbian-Byzantine offensive in the southern Balkans have stampeded across the Aegean coast, pushing the Ottomans out of western Bulgaria and most of Macedonia. Troops amass on the outskirts of Edirne, even though it is common knowledge the Sultan has evacuated the city. Venetian and Georgian naval operations have the Ottoman economy on a chokehold, it is simply a matter of time before the sun sets on the Ottoman Empire.
 * Two Southbound Vessels: The ship bound for what is left of the Philippines finds nothing in most of Luzon, but discovers refuge in Tondo. The ship bound for PLA naval bases in the South China Sea find them abandoned, but only by the living. Desiccated corpses populate the bases, some have a starving population, most corpses were found missing large chunks of flesh and most organs, leaving the Hongkongers to believe the soldiers turned on their comrades for nutrition, with the survivors barely alive enough to do anything in response to the Hongkongers that found them. Several PLA naval assets are recovered, and a radio communiqué is sent to Hong Kong to request for fuel to power these craft to bring back to Kowloon, along with an escort if deemed necessary.
 * Sengoku Jidai: Despite the mountainous terrain of the Toki Daimyo, the existence of Japanese snipers and radar technology negates the secrecy of any Kyoto-sanctioned ambush in the mountains. The Japanese effort to break the naval blockade goes relatively well, with the subs sinking about 8 wooden ships with minimal effort. Rumor has it that Ando has bribed the Ainu tribes to gain their support in the ongoing war. No movements have been reported but it's worth noting.
 * The Culmination of the Hundred Years' War: France's advances pressed on, and by mid-1450, had occupied the rest of Aquitaine and Normandy, and setting siege on the city of Calais. An English army attempted to retake Rouen, however, they were decisively beaten by French forces.
 * Granadan Civil War: Yusuf V took control of Granada, the Emirate's capital, and in the process exiled his own uncle from the nation. Yusuf crowned himself Emir of Granada, and began a campaign to pacify the entire country. An emissary is sent to Portugal for a formal thank you.
 * The Saga of Eric of Pomerania: After securing the island of Gotland, Eric went on to conquer the entire province of Blekinge and proceeded to set siege on the city of Kalmar. The Danish army is noticeably silent about the situation, for some inexplicable reason.

NPC Turn:

 * Uesugi: They agree to the Japanese proposal.
 * Alaska: They agree to the Californian proposal.
 * Ragusa: A pro-Venetian government is elected, and the Republic is handed over to the Venetians.

Republic of Armenia

 * Government: Federal semi-presidential republic
 * President: Gagik Tsarukyan
 * Prime Minister: Nikol Pashinyan
 * Capital: Yerevan
 * Laws and Policies:
 * Conscription: With over 10,000 of our troops killed at the Battle of Batman, we call up all 32,000 of our reserve troops, and institute a small-scale draft, bringing in another 30,000 recruits to the army.
 * Economy: Slightly improving, but not by much. The military-industrial complex continues to pump out war materials, while industrious Armenian businessmen exploit the complete lack of wage laws in Byzantium, Georgia, anx Qara Qoyunlu to pay downtrodden peasants who moved to the cities for a better living next to nothing but before you protest, hey, it's okay! We introduced them to the marvels of modern life and we will conveniently ignore that most of those benefits currently affect the nobles and bourgeoisie, now go back to work, factory peasant, and if you slack off again I will fire you! set up factories in foreign countries.
 * Demographics:
 * Population: 3,166,100
 * Religion: 94.8 Christian (92.5% Armenian Apostolic,) 0.8% Yazidi Muslim, 0.2% Pagan, 4% None/Other
 * Ethnicity: 97.9% Armenian, 1.9% other pre-Event peoples (Yazidis, Kurds, Russians, etc.), 0.2% post-Event peoples (Byzantines, archaic Georgians, etc.)
 * Military:
 * Armenian Military: With the recent calling up of our reserves and small-scale drafting, we now have a total of 130,000 troops, 95,000 of which are going to the front lines.
 * Army:
 * Troops: 69,000 troops, 32,000 active reserves, 30,000 draftees
 * Tanks: 20 T-80 tanks, 137 T-72 tanks, 8 T-54/55 tanks
 * Other motorized infantry vehicles: 80 BMP-1s, 7-BMP-1Ks, 55 BMP-2s, 12 BRM-1Ks, 11 BTR-60s, 21 BTR-70s, 4 BTR-80s, 145 MT-LBs, 5 BMD-1s, 120 BRDM-2 scout vehicles
 * Air Force: 15 Su-25 ground attack planes, 1 MiG-25 jet fighter, 16 Mil Mi-24 helicopter gunships, 6 L-39 trainer and attack aircraft, 16 Yak-52 trainer aircraft, 3 Il-76 cargo planes, 18 Mil Mi-8 transport helicopters, 10 Mil Mi-2 light utility helicopters, 1 anti-aircraft missile brigade, 2 regiments armed with 100 anti-aircraft complexes.
 * Military Prescence of Other Countries:
 * Russian bases in Armenia: The Russian 102nd Military Base, as well as all its equipment and personnel, have all been brought along during temporal displacement as well. The base is cooperating with the Armenian government, as they have realized there is nowhere else to go, and currently act as a private mercenary force working with the Armenian Armed Forces.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Ottomans: ur mom gay go kys
 * Crimea: no hide sultan
 * Events:
 * Operation Perfidious Turk, pt.3: With the recent pyrrhic victory at the Battle of Batman, and the realization that the Ottoman army has gotten access to some modern weaponry, we begin to take action to prevent modern weapons from getting into the hand of the Turks. Known Ottoman weapons stocks are now targeted for bombing raids, and we reorganize our army so a contingent of captured Ottoman soldiers and forcibly recruited Turkish civilians armed with melee weapons are positioned in the front of the Armenian battle line, then followed by the finest of the Armenian Arny, in order to cull the the Ottoman army a bit first before giving them any chances to steal our guns. After capturing and occupying Ankara, our bombers are told to reposition themselves in the western coast of Anatolia, with special attention drawn to the cities of Bursa, Eskisehir, Canakkale, and Izmir (Smyrna). The Army makes a straight beeline for northwestern Anatolia, hoping to connect our front lines to the Byzantine-Albanian-Serbian offensive while further destroying the Ottoman economy. Georgian ships are told to bombard coastal cities, further hampering the Ottoman ability to do trade. The total scorched earth policy from earlier continues to be applied, in order to make our occupied territories completely useless for the time being, just in case these areas somehow manage to fall back into Ottoman hands.
 * Searching for the Sultan: We begin sending spies (some being ex-KGB officers from the days of the Soviet Union) into possible areas of refuge for the fleeing Sultan, with special attention drawn to the Khanate of Crimea, as they have had a positive relationship with the Ottoman Empire for years and are the closest such nation from the Ottoman court at Edirne. Spies are also stationed in the Golden Horde, Lithuania-Belarus, the Turkish beyliks, the Aq Qoyunlu Federation, and the Mamluk sultanates, just in case the Sultan may not be hiding in Crimea after all.
 * President: The former president, Armen Sarkissian, was mandated by the Constitution to only be able to serve a single 7-year term. Now that term has expired, and the presidential elections, the firsy post-Event elections in Armenia, have led to Gagik Tsarukyan of the Prosperous Armenia party becoming the nation's first post-Event president.
 * Uplifting, continued: We continue on the crusade to bring our allies up to standard on modern technology. Coal and oil power plants, as well as some clean energy like wind power and a solar farm, are built in allied lands. Qara Qoyunlu, in particular, is interested in a proposition to dam the Euphrates River, however, we are telling them to hold off on that decision until further notice (i.e until we figure out how bad the dam will be for the local ecosystem). Most towns in allied territories with a population over 25,000 now have some form of electricity and/or potable tap water, and modern machinery continues to become ever more pervasive in life in these countries (for instance, most of the nobility and richer merchants of our allies have access to Armenian television programs, and among the peasantry, sprinklers and fertilizer are almost ubiquitous, leading to the peasants having to do less work and reap more food production). To keep uo with ever-increasing oil demand, the Grand Mashriq Highway has been expanded into a full-fledged freeway-style road, allowing to take in more traffic income, and plans of future pipelines supplying oil from Alagadda straight into Armenian borders are beinh drawn, although we currentky do not have enough resources to spare on that endeavor. Some Armenian oligarchs and business moguls have even begun building factories on the outskirts of Constantinople and Tblisi, in order to be able to manufacture items locally instead of having to import them to Armenia then export them back to their target countries and get away with violating Armenian minimum wage laws and paying the factory workers next to nothing. Hey, it could be worse, Armenian businessmen don't have the stomach for slave labor, unlike their Byzantine counterparts.
 * Insert Student Debt Joke Because I'm an American: A campus of the University of Yerevan is built in the outskirts of Constantinople, simply called the University of Yerevan-Constantinople, or UYC. Upon opening, it offered majors on Greek, Armenian, Historic Literature, Future Literature (literature that had been/will be written between 1450 and 2019), History, Future Studies (history that had happened/will happen between 1450 and 2019), Art, Music, Design, Modern Alchemy (basically high school and college science), Theology, Politics, and Law. With the best knowledge available to post-Event Armenia, UYC would become one of the top universities in Europe, and the center of learning and knowledge in the city of Constantinople. Several other campuses of the University of Yerevan are planned, including ones in Athens, Alagadda, Baghdad, Tabriz, Tblisi, and Smedrevo.
 * Insert Another American Joke About Healthcare Not Being Free: The General Hospital of Constantinople, or Armenian Hospital, is constructed not far from the palace of the Basileus. Staffed almost fully by certified Armenian doctors, and providing the best in modern medicine, the General Hospital of Constantinople would become one of the best hospitals in all of Europe (not too surprising, as this would be the only place in Europe outside Exiled countries to have a hospital where you do NOT run a high risk of dying due to bloodletting or whatever), providing free healthcare to the sick of Constantinople (you hear that America?). In the next few years, the Armenian Government would fund more hospitals in other major cities of its allies.
 * Insert Yet Another Joke, This Time About America's Bloated Military Budget: To make up for the losses in the Battle of Batman, we call up our 32,000 reserves, and draft another 30,000. The military-industrial complex is also turned up a notch, with more military factories than ever cropping up all over thr country and region.

Republic of Hong Kong

 * Government: Unitary parliamentary republic
 * President of Hong Kong: Joshua Wong (since 2022/1447) (next election due 2028/1453)
 * Prime Minister of Hong Kong: Lawrence Su
 * Hong Kong Legislative Council: (next election due 2028/1453)
 * Democratic Party of Kong Kong (62 representatives) (government)
 * Social Democratic Movement (35 representatives) (official opposition)
 * Independent (3 representatives)
 * Military: The Hong Kong Armed Forces (HKAF) comprises of 65,000 personnel. Weapons belonging to the PCC are now being taken away and be put into the hands of the HKAF, though ammunition and such had been depleted so much from these battles that they were almost meaningless. Arms factories were built in workshops and former factories that used to produce manufacturing goods for civilians. Mines are being established in the Ming Dynasty to bring raw resources into Hong Kong to start manufacturing some experimental firearms (albeit they are partially crude as Hong Kong doesn't have much skills in building and designing guns) and copying some of the weapon designs of those held by the PCC, but even so the priority of building firearms are low in favour of reconstruction and melee combat. The HKAF is aware of a peasant uprising in Guangzhou that is suspected to be carried out by the PCC (with captives of ex-PCC soldiers claiming so, but not yet verified due to the distance) and would be ready to defend, should they continue to grow stronger. Hong Kong also has its own navy since it started making its plans to explore and make its hopes of revitalising Hong Kong, but most of their ships are stolen from what's left of the PLA assets, plus they don't have a lot of fuel to go with.
 * Diplomacy: N/A
 * Economy: After reconstruction, Hong Kong has a stable and working economy for the first time since the Crisis had started. Currency, of what remains of the Hong Kong dollar is not used a lot since the crisis, but the notes have been ditched in favour of only using coins to trade, since the value of these coins are more important than banknotes. Food on the other hand, had been largely stabilised and secure with deals with the Ming Dynasty to give Hongkongers food, with small community farms across Hong Kong being considered the emergency reserve for food, along with fishing in case of relations changing or trading has been blocked. Raw and building materials, along with essential fossil fuels such as coal and oil are prioritised and heavily invested upon by businesses in Hong Kong, so to electrify the city again and refine some of the resources for the purpose of refuelling essentials such as large ships.
 * Events:
 * 2025/1450 Hong Kong Parliamentary Elections: The elections are held. As expected, the polls are highly confident that Hong Kong's current government would retain the position of being government, with a slight growth of opposition. The issues that were largely concerned in Hong Kong included the peasant uprisings in Guangzhou, which continue (perhaps) to be a problem since Ming Dynasty has been largely relied upon for Hong Kong to invest and whether they should start manufacturing higher quality weapons than the current status. Since the reconstruction's first phase is over, the second phase is highly debated as to whether expanding Hong Kong's control would be the future or if they should stay small instead and become a trading hub. These ideas would later morph as months go by and it seems that they've decided to drop the move to turn Hong Kong into a trading centre. But the main goal is to still rebuild and re-electrify Kowloon and Hong Kong essentially, where the tall buildings and skyscrapers are, which are still abandoned, yet are a risk of collapse in the long-term.
 * Oil Exploration: With the message back in South China Sea prompting for the dreams of oil revitalisation coming back to the talks of government officials, they begin sending out scouts. Despite the continued peasant uprising, the exploration and finding of oil is important. Reasons aside from South China Sea included the fact that fuel reserves are running out, even with rations and the banning of automobile usage, which because of the ban of the car from being regularly used, they are being worn out over the years. There are too many projects to handle, with few of the factories and power plants are still under construction. Having another project, a refinery would continue to drag building materials down. In the short-term, they would need to obtain few barrels of oil. Once all other projects are finished (set by roughly 3 to 5 years' time), new projects would come out, including an oil refinery plant.
 * South China Sea Report: Knowing that there is a shortage of oil and fuel to power these ships (even though they can be seized for Hong Kong and prove 'dominance' over South China Sea), the ship is to be called back. However, this did prompt the oil exploration and drilling calls within Hong Kong, so in the near-future, hopes of refining oil into fuel would soon be at the hands of Hongkongers.
 * Preparing for the Philippines: Another explorer ship is to be called back from the island of Luzon. They know that even though the Philippines is gone to an extent, they see the Philippines as a viable land for colonisation and exploitation, of course the natives may see some of the explorers that Hong Kong sent being 'different', they want to make their profits. Hong Kong is moving out of hoping to become a trade hub, to becoming a 'colonial' empire by first focusing on these islands. It will take decades to develop and years to prepare ships carrying few hundreds of civilians there, as they lack the access and support that they would need from Hong Kong, even though they are so close to proximity, it's to ensure that they are self-reliant.

 * Doge: Francesco Foscari
 * Military:
 * Army: 25,000 troops, infantry & cavalry combined.

 * Venetian-Ottoman War (continued): Venetian merchant ships are fitted with cannons to make into warships and sent out to surround and blockade the Turkish coastline and the Ionian Sea. Orders are given to attack any Ottoman vessel if they attempt to break the blockade, and assist Byzantine vessels in their doings. The aim of the war is to take over Ionian islands owned by the Ottomans to be used as supply stops for Venice's fleets. Despite the winning state of the war with the effort being joined by fellow Christians. blockades on Turkish ports remain to block any supply in and out. Troops have also been sent to capture the islands on the Ionian Sea one by one.
 * Events:​​​​​​
 * Ionian Stations: Trading and maintenance posts are found on some Ionian islands of Venetian possession to resupply, refit and repair the fleets performing their blockade duty.
 * Diplomacy: 
 * Neighboring nations: Emissaries are sent to ensure a healthy and friendly relationship with our neighbors.

Events

 * The Tulip War: The Ottoman Empire begins to crumble in the apparent absence of the Sultan, with Janissaries defecting the empire and hiding out in Karaman or Dulkadir, some even making their escape to Cyprus. The Armenians continue to advance into the Anatolian heartlands and beyond, only encountering the secondary Ottoman Levantine Army at Eskisehir. The resulting Battle for Eskisehir was a resounding defeat for the Ottomans, and the city was taken without the need for a siege due to a prior bombing run. Meanwhile in the Balkans, Edirne has fallen to the Albanians, with Skanderbeg rolling into the city followed by a division of 10 tanks and helicopter-induced air superiority. It is promptly transferred to Byzantine occupation, and the Ottomans are declared defeated in Europe. Now, the Tulip War continues in western Anatolia, where the perfidious Turk struggle to keep their coastline and islands from the looming Venetians.
 * Where's Murad II?: Armenian spies really have no idea where Murad II went, however there are rumours in the Mamluk Sultanate that he may be in Libya... somewhere in that mess anyway.
 * Mamluk-Israeli War: The Mamluk-Israeli draws to a close with a resounding victory for Israel. They annex Sinai and swathes of Mamlukean Syria. Northern Syria is converted into an occupation zone to be transferred to Armenian control in the near future.
 * Sengoku Jidai: Kyoto falls to a multi-front offense by Japanese and Hatakeyama's forces, however the city remains largely undamaged by explicit orders from Tokyo. The Shogun in Ashikaga commits seppuku upon learning of the number of enemy forces within the city itself. Most daimyos pledge their allegiance and recognise the Japanese shogunate as their new overlord, however the daimyo of Tokugawa commits seppuku, choosing death over the filthy smut-producing overlordship of Tokyo.
 * Treaty of Rouen: After over a century of warring, the English concede to France, giving up all mainland possessions in mainland Europe to the latter, including Calais. The last English troops left Normandy by August, and they were never seen again.
 * Eric of Pomerania: His pretender army managed to take down Kalmar and makes his way towards Stockholm, setting siege to the city as usual. The Danish caught wind of whatever shenanigans going on in their subject nation, and moved a Swedish contingent to stop it.
 * Pawn of Neumark: Backdoor agreements between the rulers of the Duchy of Brandenburg and the Teutonic Order ends in the swapping of possession of Neumark, which was previously Teuton land. Brandenburg, in return, paid the Order a hefty sum of gold for the deal.

 * Military Prescence of Other Countries:
 * Russian bases in Armenia: The Russian 102nd Military Base, as well as all its equipment and personnel, have all been brought along during temporal displacement as well. The base is cooperating with the Armenian government, as they have realized there is nowhere else to go, and currently act as a private mercenary force working with the Armenian Armed Forces.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Ottomans: just give up already you're dead either way
 * Mamluks, Libya: where's the Sultan? where's. the. Sultan. TELL ME WHERE THE HELL MURAD IS!
 * Byzantium, Albania, Serbia, Georgia, Trebizond, Venice, Papal States, Qara Qoyunlu: You like this sweet, sweet deal?
 * Events:
 * Operation Perfidious Turk, pt. Idontevenfrickingknowanymore: With the Tulip War in its closing stages, many of our troops are now stationed in occupied territories, to quell any pro-Ottoman rebellions fermenting in thr area, while 40,000 troops are partaking in the final offensive against Ottoman holdouts in western Anatolia. The main goal here is to capture population centers and major agricultural areas, thus starving what remains of the Ottoman Army.
 * Finding Murad: Most of our spy network in Crimea and other nations in the vicinity is relocated to the Mamluk Sultanate and Libya, following rumors of sightings of the Sultan in the general area. We also send diplomats with bribes of gold to local politicians, asking for the whereabouts of Murad II.
 * The Pashinyan Plan and the Partiion of the Ottoman Empire: As the war winds down, President Nikol Pashinyan drafts the Pashinyan Plan, dealing with the eventual peace deal and partition of the Ottoman Empire, as well as creating a cohesive plan for development and modernization of the Balkans, Caucasus and Anatolia (more on that later). The Pashinyan Plan divides the Ottoman Empire amongst Byzantium, Serbia, Albania, Venice, Trebizond, and the Papacy, and establishes a Joint Occupation Zone in the eastern portion of Ottoman land, which is to be administered by all participants of the Tulip War, and is to eventually be united as the Pontic Republic, the first modern-style republic established in the Middle East post-Event. The area around the city of Samsun is to be annexed by Armenia, as a port designed to give our country access to the seas. partitionoftheottomans.jpeg
 * Plan for the Development of the Caucasus, Anatolia, Mesopotamia, and the Balkans: The Plan for the Development of the Caucasus, Anatolia, and the Balkans is the second subset of the greater Pashinyan Plan, outlining guidelines for bringing the Caucasus, Anatolia, Mesopotamia and the Balkans up to speed with Exiled nations. The modernization process, which, prior to this moment, was done with haphazard investment from the Armenian government, as well as several companies and scores of Armenian businessmen, as well as a few Russian oligarchs stuck in Armenia during the Event, would now be laid out by the government to prevent disputes between private powers, as well as orderliness of the process. This plan outlines power and running water amounts needed to connect every home with said amenities, comprehensive sewer systems, a planned road and rail system, planned locations for schools, modern hospitals, power plants, airports, and industrial districts, and a master plan for future urban and suburban expansion of major cities in the area (namely Constantinople, Athens, Thessalonika, Skopje, Sofia, Smedrevo, Nis, Smyrna/Izmir, Bursa, Ankara, Antalya, Sivas, Trebizond, Tblisi, Poti, Tabriz, Mosul, Baghdad, and Alagadda).
 * I Believe I Can Fly: With the ever-increasing amounts of oil transported from Alagadda, Yerevan's Zvartnots International Airport is reopened, with weekly flights to Tirana International Airport and Kukes International Airport.
