 * Events:
 * Andriamanelo Again Again: These following years, Andriamanelo spends quite an amount of time on foreign policy, mainly actually doing what he promised MPB (Mtende, Pemba and Bangalla) and assuring their protection. Otherwise things remain relatively silent and peaceful, he has a lot of contact with Ranjevo, caring for his safety out in new and foreign lands that could be dangerous, even for a small island. The Emperor also does something unheard of. He orders the shrines to previous monarchs as well as important people of Matagaskar's previous incarnation Imerina, to be moved to a new area. That area is a mausoleum that he builds in Analamanga, just by the city's rova. Why Analamanga? Well basically everyone since Rangita has enjoyed it almost like a second home and it's the second largest settlement of the empire. To compensate for Maromokotro, the mountain where the shrines were originally placed, he has it declared a holy site of all of Matagaskar. He thus imposes strict regulations for the region near the mountain. Basically don't fuck around in a holy site, or get your ass jailed.
 * Assisting the Swahili: Matagaskar retains a presence in MPB, introducing them to new technology and such regarding warfare so that their fighting ability improves.
 * Order of Sihanaka: Same as previous turns, they just convert heathens and get paid for it.
 * Swords: Swords have become a much more useful weapon to us. They start to phase out spears a bit and also the spears become more adaptable due to how warfare changes over time.
 * Studies on Maorisy: Ranjevo and his comrades spend time on the foreign island we they settled studying the plant life as well as the animals. Notably they encountered indigenous flora as well as fauna. Examples of endemic fauna include the pink pigeon, the Mauritian flying fox and of course, the dodo bird.
