History of the World, the 8th Wonder of the World

German colonialism begins


After being stranded for so long on old Terra, surrounded by many other nations and no space to expand, Germany had no other choice but to expand into far away lands. So Hanz have decided to send his best men on a long sea voyage in hope of discovering this so called new world, which legends spoke of. After discovering the necessary technologies for building great ships a ship building program was started at once at the only port which Germany had on the North Sea. Having many friends Germany shared with them maps and technology in hope that they will too expand and grow steady. Except this small group of friendly nations, no others contacted us for possible trades, so Germany decided to offer it as a free gift to others who have in the past been friendly towards us.

The long term goal for Hanz was the economic exploitation of the new world’s natural resources, creation of new markets for Germany, and extension of Germany's way of life beyond its national borders.

After a 4 month long voyage the 1st German ships arrived at the coast of this unknown and so different world. The local tribes were very aggressive towards us, with no provocations they attacked one of the first German settlements Nov Dom burning it to the ground and killing all the people in it.

Hearing of this Hanz orders an immediate counter attack, so more troops were brought from the main land to assist the new setters.

After a couple of weeks nothing remained of the savages! For now peace was establish and Nov Dom was rebuild.

England Finds Peace At Last

After years of violent war, destruction and hostile negotiations with the Zulu the English have finally found peace. The Zulu threw off the shackles of Mad King Levi and elected a more reasonable leader, King Mandela. Mandela sought to heal the wounds of the Anglo-Zulu war. Together Nelson Mandela and Ælfred the Great worked on a program of truth and reconciliation that once again warmed the relations of their two peoples.

In that moment of healing the English and Zulu remembered again that at one point they weren't two peoples - they were one people along with the Inca in the old empire.

In a world of many outside threats, Mandela proposed a partial restoration of the Old Empire. This time a union of equals, the new alliance would draw from all their strengths and create a powerful force in the world once more.

All were not pleased with this new alliance however. The old slave class that long ago instigated the fall of the empire were not happy to see that empire begin to rise from the ashes. The Americans began a violent, brutal war against the Inca shaking the new alliance to its foundation. The English were not warriors and could not send help to their Incan cousins, and the Zulu were tied up with a hostile expansive power to their west - the Carthaginians. The Inca stood alone.

After decades of war and millions dead the Incan-American war ended. Both nations had set themselves back centuries with the scars and destruction from that war. In the end territory was swapped and the Inca were forced to give up their ancient beliefs and serve the crippled Buddhist god - Roosevelt. English and Zulu Hindus scoffed at the idea of following such a ridiculous god as Roosevelt and both hope one day the Inca will come to their senses and throw off the shackles of Buddhist domination.

Despite the humiliation of the condition that the Inca abandon their eternal faith, peace was cause for celebration. The horrors of the Incan-American war were finally over and life could return to the land. To mark the end of the horrific war and as a symbol of looking forward to the peaceful future the English erected a Great Lighthouse in London.

The Great Lighthouse towered over London and was a source of pride for the whole nation. Not only was it an important memorial for the war dead and a monument to peace, trade and cooperation the Great Lighthouse served a practical purpose. It truly was the largest lighthouse in the world and helped guide ships in to the London harbor. This eased trade and shipping in this, the busiest port in the world. At the furthest north eastern corner of the continent, London sat at the intersection of the Americans and Incans in the west and Zulu, Indians and Hittites in the south. England became adept traders and sea merchants.

Unfortunately peace wasn't to last long. The Carthaginian's aggressive colonization of ancestral Zulu land sparked off a war.

Little is known about the battles and outcome of this war. Conflicting reports say the war is over and alternately continues on unabated. No one knows for sure.

Queen Elizabeth I joins the chorus of world voices urging a speedy and peaceful resolution to the conflict.

Letter to all nations of Terra

To: All nations of Terra
From: Dr. Martain Luther King Jr. speaking on behalf of the Zulu

Dear leaders,

There is much concern about the Zulu/Carthagen war which currently rages in the heart of the old world.

The Zulu simply state the following as fact.

1. The Carthagens settled a city in such a way as to encroch upon Zulu city space. This encrochment lead to the loss of an important resourse for the Zulu.

2. The Carthagens then settled another city to the north. Although this city did not encroch upon Zulu city space, it did encroch upon Inca city space. The rest of the land this city now occupies is inhabited by rural Zulu.

3. The Zulu invaded the Carthagen land with an army. The Carthagen then surrendered the first offensive city to save another.

4. Word was leaked to our inteligence officers that the peace agreement was only a bid to buy time for the Carthagens to regroup. Instead of waiting for the war to come to Zulu land, we the Zulu once again invaded.

5. Upon invasion, the Carthagen offensive army stocked with many swordsmen, was realized. The Carthagen tried taking a Zulu city with part of this army, and failed.

Those are the facts of the matter. The Zulu will agree to peace for the disbandment of the Carthagen city of Hippo. Otherwise, we reserve the right to defend Zulu land as we see fit.

Blessings Upon all the people of Terra,

- Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. of the Zulu

A message from Astorgus, Leader of Carthage

The facts, as have been presented are:

The Zulu attacked Carthage.

We agreed to peace and sacrificed a city to do so.

The Zulu then attacked Carthage a second time.

The issue of "encroachment" has been discussed. Ichibi, the Zulu city in question, was rebuilt from a city razed by the current Zulu administration, and settled closer to Carthaginian territory. This forced us to settle a mere 3 tiles from Carthage in order to have any presence on our eastern front. This WAS manageable for both nations - given the obvious shortage of land.

And yet this was unacceptable to the Zulu??!!

I am not opposed to peace, but the land-grabbing and aggression demonstrated by our neighbours is troublesome. When will the third attack come? And what will be the pretense for that?

Carthage must protect itself.

A just and true peace settlement would see the city of Ichibi razed by the Zulu, and an international tribunal agree on the placement of a new Carthaginian city to the east of Carthage,, and a new Zulu city to the west of their capitol, Inhlizigo.

Astorgus, Leader of Carthage

An address by Konya in Edirne

(translated into all known languages and despatched to any interested parties)

"To our North lies a great peril.

NOT the careless friend in Carthage but our old ally the Zulus!

It is true that the young and brave Carthaginians did settle in areas beyond the diplomatic conventions of our time but they are a free an energetic people. I've always liked them.

For this they paid a price and that price is war with our long term ally, the Zulus. Shaka is a battle friend of mine and we shared some amazing experiences in altering city placements and figting the barbarian thugs. My friendship with him is now fully stretched for he has waged war way beyond what was required to settle his border arrangements.

The whole of terra was critical of his actions. Korea and Germany called for restraint and peace and threatened armies to attack the Zulus.

We stood firm initially in support of Shaka but as the war waged it became increasingly clear that Shaka had become a maniacal dictator war monger feeding off the blood of his enemies.

The Zulu allies became critical one by one, all threatening action against them or at least a wirthdrawal of support.

Then the Inca declared their alliance with the Zulu null and void and grabbed the high moral ground. The English, Indians and Hittites are soon to follow.

The Germans threatened troops.

The Koreans threatened troops.

Passage would be granted through Hittite lands to allow access.

The Zulu troops seem to possess almighty battle skills beating the odds in almost all battles against the Carthaginians. This is noted and our own troop production is increased accordingly as the Zulu now lurk in Hadrumentum (sp tba?).

Finally peace is achieved.

All this while the small nations of the world are trying to grab a bit of land in the New World with the Mali selfishly running away with land promised to the Egyptians and the Germans taking also more than their fair share.

Then an amazing thing happened.

The Germans gift a technology to the Zulu!

Can Hanz of the Germans please provide a rationale for this, given that they were the most critical of the Zulus war mongering. Is this some kind of reward? A secret agenda?

And to the Zulus, to Shaka himself, I ask this, How is it that you so quickly turn from your allies without attempting ANY reconciliation whatsoever and into the arms of the German machine?

Also, to Choson of Korea, what is your position regarding the German support for the Zulus given that you were also very critical of the Zulu war mongering? And ready to send troops also.

It makes little sense to me.

And to Egypt, Can you please explain why you feel the Americans we bullied and let down? It seems to me that America attacked the Inca who merely defended themselves and since then they have been cooperating nicely. I believe.

I ask these questions.

I want answers.

I want justice.

We share a great Terra land, let us not abuse it."

[Glohithia]

A Brief History Of Mali:

Sundiata's reign was peaceful and prosperous. He saw the Malinese empire grow and the land transformed from jungle and forest to farmland and villages. Mali's friendship with her immediate neighbors remained strong and trade flourished. It was at this time that Sundiata, and all after him, would be referred to as Mansa. Mansa would translate roughly to Emperor while the old title of Maghan might translate as only leader. It was an honor done to Sundiata to reward him for his strong leadership.

Sundiata had a son, Mari Djata, who stood as the next in line to inherit the throne. He was the Ras or Prince of Mali. Eventually Ras Djata became Mansa Djata and inherited the throne. During his reign, there was a new age at hand. An age of seafaring. New ships were being built and the age old ally of Mali, Egypt, gifted one of these new caravels to explore the new found land to the west. Egypt spoke of a land of milk and honey. Of a land with fantastic resources...and vicious natives. Djata commissioned two sets of brave Malinese explorers to see for himself these almost unbelievable claims made by Egypt.

It was at this time that Djata also ordered the first port city of Mali to be founded. Walata was in the far north and would be the embarkation point for all future exploration and colonization, provided the new land proved to be fertile.

During Djata's reign there was also much news of warfare and strife in the east. America and Inca fighting, Carthage and Zulu fighting, but all of this far from Malinese borders. Djata chose to remain neutral publicly. No refugee streams had found their way to the Mali border and no nations had threatened Mali and Djata was not inclined to risk the peace of his nation over events happening half a world away. His wish was that of Kon Fatta and Sundiata, to grow his empire and make his people happy and well.

[Glohithia]

The first group of explorers left on the great caravel Ra’s Light, named in honor of the Egyptians who built it. The group was commanded by Abubakari, and intrepid man from Gao. Ko Mamadi was in charge of the second group and would leave later when Ra’s Light returned from the New World.

The following are excerpts from Abubakari’s journal, detailing the discoveries he made up to his last days in the service of Mansa Djata.

We made landfall near the middle of the new continent. Never have I seen such dense jungle, even in the north of Mali. While the jungle is beautiful beyond words, traveling is very difficult and slow. The men are exhausted after each day. Rain is always present and can start to drive one mad, the delicate pitter of water the only constant that soon turns to war drums in my mind.

“The falling rain
In the northern jungle
Hanging droplets on the leaves
Bombards my brain”

Abubakari

We find tribes of hostile villages in these jungles, Aryan and Avar. They are surrounded by precious dyes and rich fishing grounds. A strange things starts to happen to me after months here, a subtle change deep within me, a sense of coming home. I think it must be a connection to my home city, where remnants of jungle still exist. A link to my ancestors perhaps. But it is dangerous to delay here, we must head further south and leave this jungle behind, even though leaving hurts me deeply.

After a long journey south, we leave the jungle behind and enter a vast forest belt that runs the breadth of the continent, east to west. More tribes, Mauryan, Saxon, and Visigoth, equally hostile. We are constantly on guard. Here we find exotic spices and vast gold reserves, untapped as of yet by the natives. How entrancing the gold is great Mansa, fit for any king to wear! The local tribes say its beauty has the power to drive men to violence and I can well see why they say it.

Further south we push, into a great desert. Despair! How I thirst for water. How long can the great beast go on for? Men are dying each day, we are in danger of perishing and fading from this land forever.

So thirsty… I know I am hallucinating now, but it seems so real, so important a vision. Its insistence fuels me.

“I long for the death of the sun
And another glorious revelation”

Abubakari

I gather the rest of the men and make one last push south, to escape the heat and follow both my vision and yours, Mansa. For now, they do not conflict.

At last, we break the bonds of the desert sands and come to great lake surrounded by plains and grasslands. Horses abound and having only seen them in passing back home, they are a wonder to me. It is getting harder to continue. The few men remaining long for the Mali homeland. I too wish for an end to my journey, but for different reasons. One last push south, to reach the ocean that must be there.

At long last! The ocean is reached. Through forested tundra we marched on this last leg. Past the barbarian outpost of Uzbek to sit atop the icy hills of the most southern point of the new world. I drink in the glory of this land, revel in the accomplishment of body and spirit. The great ship Ra’s Spirit waits to take us home. But that is not for me, but for my men.

I want to make you understand Mansa. My destiny lies here, with the great mother earth. It was as our ancient ancestors must have lived, as one with the land instead of forcing ourselves on it like pillagers.

“She moves her body
And her whispers weave
And the world spins
And tells me that I'll never want to leave”

Abubakari

Something in me has changed, I feel if I leave this enchanted world for the “real” world, I will wither and die. You may accuse me of living in a fantasy, but I have found my new life and I am content.

“The beauty of twisted reality
In my heart, my dreams”

Abubakari

I have fulfilled my obligation to you. You now have the knowledge to help you settle this land. I will see you on the other side great king, for we all have one common subterranean destination. Until then...

[Pinchak]

The Zulu/Carthagen War

After the Slaughter at Ichibi Elinci, the Zulu pushed onward further into Carthagen territory upon orders from Shaka.

What Shaka (Levi) lacked in nation management, he more then made up for with military genius. One army headed north, to Hippo, the other headed south toward Hadrumentum. This drew much of Carthages force to the east in defence of these citys. Shaka then shifted both armys toward the capital city of Carthage... the utimate barganing chip.


Now the Zulu armys stood between the capital and the main forces of Carthage. Shrimishes were fought along the way, but for the most part the Zulu armys arrived at the capital in good shape. It was poorly defended, just as Shaka predicted.

The Carthages rushed forces to the area to counter the attack, but suffered heavy losses against the Zulu. Even a new, formable unit known as knights were ineffective against the Zulu army. The mighty Impi, which by the technological standards of the day might be considered obsolete, were agile enough to sidestep the knights attacks, and drive their spears into the breaks in the knights armor.

Meanwhile, the whole of Terra voiced outrage at the possablity that the holy city of Carthage may be razed. Even the Zulu's long time friends the Inca and Hitties spoke of breaking relations with the Zulu. Other nations threatened outright war against the Zulu.

Shaka was livid. Against the pleadings of the Royal Counsel to step his war efforts down a notch, Shaka openly welcomed war with any nation that dared interfere. This needless to say, did not strengthen Zulu relations with the rest of Terra.

Seeing that the Carthagens had moved much defence out of Hippo to counter the Zulu main force, Shaka brought more troops from the rear. Hippo was assulted until only a handful of brave but battered archers remained. At the same time, Shaka's catapult units weakened the defences of the Carthage capital too rubble. The forces inside the city were outnumbered almost 2 to 1. It is rumored that upon hearing news of how dominating the Zulu army had been, Shaka (Levi) had Carthagen blood brought back to the Zulu capital, and that he "pleasured himself" with it.

The Royal Counsel knew that Shaka's orders to have both Hippo and Carthage burned to the ground would bring much of Terra against them. Douglass had Shakas military orders for the razing of both citys intercepted, and changed. Although Douglass and the rest of the Counsel had little personal dislike for the Carthagens, they realized that without dealing them a blow, they would live in fear of counterattack at a later date. For this reason, they offered peace in exchange for the city of Hadrumentum. This was key, as Hadrumentum would no doubt become a powerful production city due to it may surrounding hills.

The Carthagens agreed. The Counsel knew there would be a price to pay for altering Shaka's orders however.

Suspicion that Shaka was possessed by a demon had grown among the Royal Councel. The Shaka they knew was just as adept at military stratagy, but without the bloodlust. Shaka was acting much more like Mad King Levi than Shaka Zulu. They decided to test this theory.

Levi had his father imprisoned in the coastal town of Ibishiai when he took power many years ago. Some said Levis father abused him, others said that Levi was just plain evil. Regardless of the reason, Levi's father was released from prison when Mandela took power, however he lived a simple life and even changed his name so as not to be associated with the tyrant.

Fredrick Douglass went to Ibishai, found the father, and invited him to the zulu capital for dinner. Levi's father was puzzled, but Douglass told him it was to repay him for his many years of wrongful imprisonment.

Three nights later, Shaka, Levi's father, and the Royal counsel sat down in the royal dining hall to eat. Shaka (Levi) glanced over at his father, then took a double take.

The combination of emotion and shock caught Shaka off guard. He proclamed, "Father, what are you doing here? I had you imprisoned!"

With that statement the Royal Counsel's fear was confirmed. Guards who were notified ahead of time of this possablity abruptly grabed Shaka from the table and lead him away screaming.

Levi's father however did not look baffled. He later confided in the Counsel that he could tell right away that it was his son in the body of Shaka. A feeling perhaps, the crazy eyes perhaps, but an undeniable sense that Levi was close.

"I think I may know who is responsable for this", delcaired Al Sharpton. "Tomarrow, we pay a man by the name of Incho Undalma a visit."

[Glohithia]

Soon after Mansa Djata received what was to be the final correspondence from Abubakari, he passed away. He was visibly moved by the words and rumor had it that he even considered leaving the far away land pristine and unsettled by Mali in honor of the great journey Abubakari made and the poignant words he wrote.

His son, Ras Makonnen Gudessa, was not moved in the same way however. And when Makonnen took his fathers place, he immediately sent ships loaded with troops to subdue the hostile tribes. Leading these troops was Makkonen’s own son, Tafari Makkonen, the current Prince of Mali and heir to the throne. He was a general of some renown and trusted by the Mansa Gudessa.

The conquest of the new world started at the shores of the great barbarian city of Visigoth. Ras Tafari Makkonen attacked from the forest with his troops and took the city while suffering no losses. He went on to capture Avar, Mauryan, Aryan, and Saxon in the same manner, never losing a man. The troops viewed him as something special, more than just a Prince. “How can he lead us in so many battles, yet never suffer injury?” they asked. “How is it we win every fight suffering only minimal injury and loss?” others would say. It never occurred to them that some of this was due to the advanced troops he had and some due to the detailed maps Abubakari made. In time, his reputation among the army became so great, that it bordered on worship.

Once the land was secure, Tafari took up residence in Visigoth, the site of his first victory. Plans were laid out for the continuation of the settling of the new world. Workers and troops were ferried over in large galleons built in Walata. Cities were defended and land was worked. The city of Saxon was turned over to the Egyptians, who also had a city close to the southern border of Visigoth.

A few years passed and slowly a religion of sorts grew in Visigoth. It revolved around Tafari and his perceived divine guidance. It took bits and pieces of the Jewish religion followed in Timbuktu and the Christian religion in Gao and combined them with their own beliefs about Tafari. This religion was called Rastafarianism and it swept the citizens of Visigoth away in a tidal wave of religious furor. Tafari didn’t know exactly what to make of it, after all, he was only a normal man. But the effects on his people were greatly positive and the new world was a harsh place. He didn’t dissuade his people from their belief in him and in time started to actually act the part whole-heartedly. It was at this point that he changed his name to Haile Selassie I.

Rastafarianism, or Rasta, spread quickly to the city of Gao and Mansa Gudessa feared it would most likely be only a matter of a few short years before other cities adopted the belief, as it had a powerful message for the working class. This worried him and caused some conflict with his son. He always wanted his son to follow him, but only when he was ready to relinquish the throne. To make it worse, he could see his son was changing, becoming a different man than he was before he went to the new world. Gudessa was torn and didnt know what to do about it.

[Pinchak]

Mandela Resumes Control


Al Sharpton, accompanied by several of the Royal Guard indeed visited the witch doctor Incho Undalma. Again, trickery was employed to extract the truth.

Incho: What do I owe this lovely visit to?

Al: There is trouble at the capital. Our leader is very sick... we fear he may die without your medical help.

Incho: Levi is ill? I will be more than happy to aid with my healing powers.

Al: Levi? Surely you have not been living in a cave all alone. Levi has been dead for many years now.

Incho: Shaka! Shaka I ment to say! Oh dear Shaka is ill?

Al: Incho, do not play games with me. We know Shaka was taken over by the spirit of Levi. We also know you are responsable.

Incho: I know not of what you speak!

Al: Guards... take this man into custody.


After several days of "physical persuasion" Incho reviled the whole plot, including the poisoning of Mandela. In exchange for his life, Incho returned Shaka to his former state, and Levi was once again purged from this world.

Mandela once again took power, although he had been left blind from the poison.

Mandela: Royal Councel, Levi has once again sabotaged the Zulu people, even beyond the grave. We must work to repair the damage caused, and the Zulu's reputation.

Under Chief Mandela the Zulu entered another era of peace and progress. A chapter in the Zulu history had come to a close like the setting sun, and like the setting sun, it brought promase of a new day.

[KunojiLym]

The latter half of the Buyeo dynasty was marked by gradual decline. Go Uru inflicted high taxes upon the fur traders of Seoul, causing them to move to neighboring Egypt. For generations afterwards, Korean trade and economy suffered, though she was still a pre-eminant economic power. The one notable event of this period was the establishment, in 190 CE, of the Seonggyungwan, the world's first university, as an extension of the venerable Confucian school in Seoul. But even then, Confucianism everywhere in the Korean empirea was in decline, as the educated class were gradually disillusioned by the decay of the monarchy, and turned instead to Confucianism's successor, Taoism.

In 500 CE, the general Yi Seong-gye establishd the Joseon (Choson) Dynasty with a largely bloodless coup. The new dynasty had a decisively Taoist bent, but officially, the Choson claimed that Taoism was but another version of Confucianism - which was true to some extent, but by that time, the two philosophies were widely divergent. The Seonggyungwan continued to teach the Confucian curriculum, but many students attended instruction at the various Taoist schools throughout the empire as well.

Up to this point, Korea had been traditionally detatched from the affairs of far-flung civilizations, so long as they did not interfer with trade. However, the mid-6th century CE proved to be a turning point. As reports of Zulu armies poised to capture and even raze Carthage reached Choson ears, the Korean court was moved to alarm, and joined with many other civilizations in condemming the action. In the event, the crisis was resolved, but Korea was now alert to the fact that events far from her own borders could threaten her security, and she was determined not to be caught unawares again. To commemorate this event, a flag was adopted by the Choson - the Taegeukgi. Korea was now officially Taoist, and broke formally with the original Confucian faith.

The Kingdom of Korea

To Konya of Hittie

We note your concern regarding our position on the Zulus. Korea's position is that we will not allow a known aggressor nation to approach our borders. The destruction of a capital and a holy city, while it also raised our concerns, would not have been sufficient to provoke us to threaten military action otherwise. However, Carthage is rather too close to Korea for us to be indifferent to a Zulu thrust towards it. Carthage and Zulu may settle their differences as they wish, but when the conflict begins to threaten our borders, we cannot stand idle.

This explains our actions. With regards to alleged German actions for or against the Zulu, we have strictly no opinion, as that is a purely German-Zulu matter, and as far as we can tell, does not threaten our sovereignity or security, nor does it adversely affect our current levels of trade. Unless you can convince us that this is a threat to Korea, we see no reason to be either for or against the alleged German actions.

With all due respect but the Hittites form a solid block between you and the Zulus so I don't see you actions explained here.

a) The Zulu/Cart conflict was not a threat to Korea

b) You spoke out strongly against the Zulu

c) You are censoring youself of opinion when it comes to German actions.

We will remember that.

At least the Koreans have responded to our questions.

We urge other nations to also respond
