Tsar Ivan tells the world of his firstborn child, Peter Romanov.

God Save the Tsar and Prince!

Four men tried and an entire nation put away. Death embraced them so they could get away. From Sea to sand and sand to stone and stone to hill and hill to valley and valley to forest and forest to jungle and jungle to swamp and swamp till the border where they were redirected and then made there way to disposal and gold and finally killed and put on hidden display......

The Circle has decided to come out with there biggest secret. The heads of the four Death Cult Generals are now being sold. All minor nations such as Republican of Negros, Katiputan, Russian India, Isreal, and COMS would have to give the circle all of there money for one head do to there importance. The other nations must pay half of there money for two heads and for all all of there money. There are no but's and if you want one or all you will pay or give us your greatest technology.

As the ice melts away in the Himalayas, Mshuge Bokher, who was the lost Israelite explorer, stumbled from the mountains with five other men (they are in northern India) they are in a state of near-shock, and can barely speak. Local Nepalese take care of them for the time being. Although they cannot explain yet, they carry golden artifacts of the old empire, and wounds from darts, arrows, and spears, as well as suffering from major frostbite

The Caspian Depression, the Siberian plains, Mesopotamia, the Ganges River valley, and the Yellow River Delta begin to flood due to the low altitude

The Tsar's bodyguard goes up to 250 men, 5,000 patrol the Kremlin, and 1,000 patrol the palace. General's guards are around 200 men. The Tsar develops an awful case of paranoia and begins a purge. Many of men are killed or are sent to gulags. The nickname "Ivan the Terrible" is placed upon his head.

God save the Tsar!

As summer approaches, heavy torrents of cold rain begin to fall, eroding the dry soil

Israel begins to create a larger, more practical navy. We still differ from most navy's, however. We equip our ships not to destroy enemy ships, but to capture them. We equip them with Rams, grapples, and nets. They are built for speed

The very same act of violence that occured in Hellas and Thracia happens once more in the very heart of Russia. A prominent general and his retinue are found hanging from a tower near the center of the capital, with a wood tablet with the words, "Vengenace for the Circle" engraved on it. Reports of similar murders spring up in Crete and central Antiolia, with entire villages being killed and messages nailed to the head of the dead with ribs. In each place of slaughter, the words "Slaughter" and "Sacfrice" can be found in several different languages. There is literally no trace of who caused these murders, but rumor spreads of a savage wolf-man with a spear and sword covered in blood being seen on the island of Cyprus. Fear spreads throughout the afflicted lands, and small riots break out in smaller towns and cities.

Fun Fact: Taikado Amasiro and Shigori Shingen both draw inspiration from the military genius of Takeda Shingen of the Takeda Clan.

After hearing of the colonial massacre in the Americas, Ali Krungor orders for construction of walls around each colony with 10 watchtowers with a heavily guarded ballista in each one. Heavy units and longbowmen would patrol the walls to protect the colonies and are specially trained in defense at all times.

I've spoken to Craft and he says I get gunpowder, although no matchlocks.

Garutu Loyalist inventors are ordered to create matchlocks, or tanegashimu.

Outside of a number of large settlements in Hellas and Thracia, key officials and notable civilians are found brutally executed by an unknown assiliant and hung from trees. They have their back cut open and the ribs hacked away from the spine, which caused their ribs to spring forth like bloody wings. Their lungs are ripped out as well, and their intenstines ripped out by what seems to be bears. In the blood-covered ground below them are strange runes engraved in stone slabs.

Strange men from the mountains assault the Qariri-American colony, destroying it. They appear to be dark creatures

Temperatures begin to increase rapidly, causing the ice to melt, an create floods. The people don know it, but the reason for this is a solar flare that came too close to earth. It is possible that the ice caps will melt

Szucsclan What rank am I in your nation? I posted awhile back and you never responded...

The winter draws to an end, and the ice begins to melt. Fast.

All armor, weapons, appliances, and some construction supplies and places are reinforced with steel. Qarir tries to work on their own explosive launcher weapon that involves steel and fire, while elephants and rhinos (armored) have reinforced tusks, horns, and armor. In forges, mass production of steel is already underway.

With the Circle finally done researching Gunpowder they immediately start to work on different secret projects involving the new substance. Also now that they have steel they parade everything in there army, tools, and builds that would need it. We also wonder how the construction of our colony and trench is going in The Americas

Russia attacks the dying nation of Ragadier overthrowing them with ease. While this is happening, an army of 20,000 march into Shigori killing any rebels or pretenders that stand in their way. They slowly carve their way to Kamchatka.

The time has come. Qarir gives everyone steel.
