 Sultanate of Muscat-Oman

 * Government: Absolute Monarchy (Sultanate)
 * Sultan: Beizur al-Dimashqi (B 384 AD, still alive) (R 412 AD - Present)
 * Economy: Based around fishing, some agriculture and trading mostly, as well as taxing of the villagers and peasants. With the spices from the east we become richer by selling them to nearby peoples. Trade with Rome influences us. We also are trading with Upathara Wansura, Gerrha and Chutu.
 * Capital: Muscat

 * Wars and Conflicts (italics: Potential War):

 * Rebuilding the Navy: Our navy was very badly hit after the Bactrian War. Along with using our resources for more military purposes, we start to rebuild the navy. We use much of the lumber we were traded.
 * Persian Gulf Patrol: There are transport ships placed to patrol parts of the Persian Gulf, to patrol and give us a larger picture of the region. This is done for security purposes during the Gerrhan Religious War.
 * Support in Gerrha: Large amounts of militias and volunteers are sent to support the Zoroastrians in the religious turmoil occurring in Gerrha. We also lend equipment to any soldiers on "the Zoroastrian side".

 * 101 fire ships
 * Although not part of the navy we have 405 fishing ships.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Non-Zoroastrians in Gerrha: We denounce you.
 * Gerrha: We will help you and if things go really sour we will intervene against the heathens. We offer to take in refugees.
 * Saba: All diplomatic ties are cut. (This is objected by several of Beizur's advisors, but he did it anyway)
 * Events:
 * The Religious State: Assimilation, a fanatic and paranoid Sultan and a neighbouring religious war leads to freedom of religion being restricted much more and religion becoming an important part of society and a method of systemic oppression and an estate system essentially being in place, with Dasturs, Mobads and Herbads having a higher position than others, but lower than nobles and the Sultan himself.
 * Paranoia of Beizur al-Dimashqi: Beizur is believed to have become quite paranoid, establishing a tighter and tighter grip upon Muscat-Oman's society. Some believe he is trying to stomp out other religions because he is afraid of Muscat-Oman ending up in turmoil similar to Gerrha. His advisors have reported him having several sleepless nights, nervous breakdowns, incidents of senile dementia (possibly from his old age) and angry outbreaks when offered help with ruling or objection against certain decisions. Some advisors have already ended up imprisoned or executed from this.
 * African Colony: It is expanded upon to the west and south, controlling Ras Hafun. Work is put in to maintain the colony, with settlements being built upon. An important leader of the expedition and colonial matters, Mehmad Qarar, names the colony Al-Sumali. The natives are exposed to Zoroastrianism.
 * Assimilation and Religion: It continues. There are occasional violent raids performed on non-Zoroastrians, which the Sultan and his nearby nobles deny as being systemically ordered.
 * Wind Ship Research: We are taking part in the research.
 * Forced Migration to Sur: To increase its population, the forced migration is still occurring.
 * Surabanese Groups: Following Beizur's acts to "Omanify" as many people as possible, they start to become more prominent.
 * Shoqra Fire of 444: In 444, a large fire broke out in Shoqra, destroying several buildings and killing many. Beizur blames the Surabanis over this, but they deny it, stating they were protesting against the Sultanate, but didn't cause the fire. Nevertheless it has divided Muscat-Oman further.
