After President Mike's untimely death, his Vice President Random Entity V took control
of Babylon. During his term, he hopes to put an end to the war that has corrupted the
nation for so long.

(0)1786 AD - Several cavalry regiments fortify their positions on the Western front.

(1)1788 AD - Resistance groups in Athens and Herakleia are quickly put down. The former Greek city of Thermopylae experiences famine once again, and the President is criticized for not finding a solution to the problem. Later that same year, Babylonian scholars discover the secret of the internal combustion engine, and provide the government with the concepts.
After a quick and brutal campaign with no Babylonian casualties, the Greek outpost of
Pharsalos is captured.

(2)1790 AD - The Aztecs contact Admantus again to proclaim that "raw greed is the only thing stopping us from crushing your puny civilzation". President Entity, not wanting to provoke further feelings of contempt, agrees to their demands for the secret of combustion. He then sells the secret to other nations in order to bring the country out of debt. The last remaining Greeks in Corinth mount a counter-offensive, but it largely proves to be futile. Hundreds of cavalry troops arrive at the Corinth battleground daily, and the Greeks realize that their empire will soon fall.

(3)1792 AD - After a four-year campaign, the last Greek city of Corinth is captured. The citizens of Greece rejoice, as they can now appreciate the freedom of Babylon. The Greek Empire is destroyed. The President's advisors caution him not to continue the campaign into Zululand for several reasons, the most obvious being that another war would tear Babylon apart (rioting had already begun in several core cities). They advise that the President should consolidate his power near the Zulu peninsula before striking.

(4)1794 AD - Most of the remaining cavalry in Babylon are spread out to defend the entire nation. It becomes painfully obvious that the Zulus are trying to watch Babylonian forces - they have become paranoid.

(5)1796 AD - Mass production is developed in Babylon.

(6)1798 AD - Coastal cities begin mass producing ships to add to Babylon's lackluster navy. The secrets of mass production are sold to the world's remaining nations.

(7)1800 AD - The Egyptian city of Thebes completes the Hoover Dam before a Babylonian city could. The cities building the Hoover Dam change their productions to focus on building regular, non-Hoover hydro plants, because "It's basically the same thing, right?"

(8)1802 AD - Transports are built and fortified in several coastal cities for future use.

(9)1804 AD - Babylonian scientists give humans the ability of flight. Initial tests in Admantus are successful, and soon Babylonian generals lobby to use "aeroplanes" for military use.

(10)1806 AD - In the space of two years, the number of airplanes in the Babylonian Air Force has increased to well over a dozen.

(11)1808 AD - Nothing of interest takes place.

(12)1810 AD - Babylonian fighters begin conducting air superiority missions to control the skies over the continent. A new aircraft carrier leaves the port at Byzantium.

(13)1812 AD - With the discovery of motorized transportation, Babylon enters a new age of prosperity and advancement. This immediately causes Babylonians all over the country to celebrate by playing techno music loud enough to be heard globally. Later in the year, Rocketry is developed.

(14)1814 AD - SAM Missile Batteries and cruise missiles are built in an effort to make Babylon impenetrable.

(15)1816 AD - Cruise missiles are deployed near the Zulu peninsula to prepare for the "inevitable absorption of the Zulu people."

(16)1818 AD - A new battleship is built near Pompeii, and joins the aircraft carrier to create the first signs of a new fleet. President Random Entity resigns, feeling that he has accomplished all he can. The reigns of leadership are passed on to his Vice President.

NOTES: I stopped early because I want to see if I can get one more turn in before the game ends (either by default in 2050 or by a victory of some sort). Speaking of which, anyone have any ideas on how we want to end this? A Cultural victory doesn't look too likely, but we could possibly win via the Space Race or Dimplomacy (if we can improve relations with other countries... a lot). If you've got any suggestions, post them here.
