"I am back sire! The diplomatic mission was a total failure! He said i'f we can do it we will. We do not care about any other nations.' They are seeking domin ance in all areas and have plans to dominate the so-called 'New Terra'. It's outrageous sire."


"Outrageous that the world may not be flat ?
He He... Now do you see what I mean about diplomacy?"

Konya stroked his beard and ordered Kayu City to press on with its plans.

The Egyptians recieved messages from the leaders of the world. After the barbarian blood bath on Egyptian Territory, the Egyptians are sympathetic with the losses incurred in a distant land. We will make offerings to the gods for the many departed souls.

It is far better to look to the sea for our futures. Keep the peace and make love, not war.

The story of the Inca-American war

The source of the war was when Boston was being built.
Far from the American borders, close to the city of Cuzco, 2nd city of the Inca



American troops invade the Inca, in the north towardst he cities of Machu Picchu and Cuzco



Well promoted Inca axeman attacks invading American swordman. Axeman got +85% against swordman. The axeman lost, most certainly because of Buddhistic meditation by the swordman.



Inca spearman finishes the American swordman where the axeman failed. Later the spearman would be destroyed by the American chariot in the north-west.



After the Americans took Machu Picchu, many battles took place just outside it's borders



The Inca besieging of Atlanta starts



The Inca besieging of Machu-Picchu starts



The Inca control the Iron Mountains next to Atlants and attack American swordmen from it, and succeed!



The picture of war!



Battle of the gold mountains, just outside of Machu-Picchu



The Gold Mountains are token by the Inca



Atlanta is being encircled by the Inca



Start of the last battle for Atlanta. Suicidal axeman invade against supperior crossbowman. The attacks weakens the crossbowman and the crossbowman will be destroyed by the Inca in a 2nd strike.



The conquest of Atlanta!
The last battle fought between the Americans and the Inca.
Atlanta would fall and the 2nd peace conference would succeed. Boston would be traded for Washingon, the Americans keep Machu-Picchu, the Inca keep Atlanta.

Clarification on the issues between the Carthagians and the Inca

The Carthagian-Inca dispute concerns the city of Corihuayrachina. The Carthagians claim that that city could not have been build because they claim the land north of Carthage.

The Inca refused because culturally the land between Tiwanaku and Ollantaytambo belonged to the Inca already.



Centuries later the Carthagians built the city of Hippo, on the border of Ollantaytambo! Despite the fact that the Inca were insulted, they didn't start a war against he Carthagians.

In the year 510 BCE, Choe Mu-seon demonstrated before the court of Buyeo the Juhwa, "an arrow which propels itself via fire". This was the first mention in history of a rocket-like device, and indeed was also the first reference to the use of gunpowder. In the ensuing years, Buyeon court scientists built upon Choe's work, and slowly, a line of singijeon, or "fire arrows", were developed. In 220 BCE, Buyeo declared war on Goguryeo, in alliance with Samhan. The singijeon were deployed for the first time, and the armies of Goguryeo grew to know terror in the face of the explosions and thunderous booms, the likes of which they had never before encountered. In ten short years, Goguryeo fell, but now Samhan turned on Buyeo, fresh from the fall of Seoul. As it was, the singijeon wrecked even greater havoc upon Samhan's chariot armies than Goguryeo bronze-tipped ones; horses, after all, were easier to panic than humans. Samhan was pushed back all the way to Wonsan, but there gleaming walls held off the Buyeon armies for almost two decades.

It was this that led to the development of the Hwacha, or "fire chariots". These can be thought of as the world's first rocket launchers; certainly, both the terror and the destruction made possible by such weaponry was unprecedented in history. Wonsan finally fell in 200 BCE, and the Buyeo Dynasty of Korea began.

Just 10 years before, a noted Confucian scholar by the name of Seol Chong released a landmark series of books, before dissappearing entirely from public life. Collectively, the works were known as "The Way", and they sparked off a flurry of intellectual discussion and debate. Out of this, a new school of thought, distinct from Confucianism, developed. This was Taoism. P'yongyang, as the birthplace of Korean Confucianism, served as a natural centre for the fledging religion. Whereas Confucianism taught the ways of government and public life, Taoism preached the withdrawal into an inner peace, and the seeking of a natural balance and harmony in accordance to the inmutable laws of the universe.

For 300 years, the dynasty prospered. The first king of Buyeo, Hae Buru, centralized the government and boosted the prestige of the army, in accordance to traditional Confucian teachings and the new ideas that flowed in from the eastern Ottomans. All manner of luxuries started to flow into the empire, including gold, silver and fur.

50 BCE was a landmark year for the Buyeo dynasty. In that year, the fortress of Haengju was completed; the first Korean silks arrived in the marketplace; and court scientists demonstrated the creation of reliable paper. At this point in history, Korea was the most advanced civilisation in the world, and its people were happy as never before. By 110 CE, the neighboring Ottoman empire had converted to Taoism, and Seoul herself was one of the pre-eminant cities of the known world.
