Chapter 1: Fall of the Greeks
It was 4000bc and a group of fishing communities on the coast of the North Atlantic Ocean joined together under the rule of a wise cheiftain named Canute, my father. Canute had a vision that showed the Vikings as the masters of the world. After the vision the god of war, Odin, gave Canute imortality to guide his people into the future. The gods gave Canute's citizens the expansionist technology of Pottery, to store extra food and the comercial technology of Runic Alphabet, to reliably save knowledge for the future. Odin said that there were 7 other nations that had thier own great imortal rulers: The United States of America, ruled by Abraham Lincoln; Rome, ruled by Julius Caesar; China, ruled by Mao Tse-Tung; Mexico, ruled by Montezuma; India, ruled by Mohandas Ghandi, Greece, ruled by Alexander the Great; and Egypt, ruled by Cleopatra VII.
100 years later Canute's first city, Trondhiem, was growing well. We had a regiment of Warriors trained and were now building a Grainery to store barley in the cold winters. Some citizens were experimenting in copper alloys to use in armor and spears. It was discoved that an alloy of 9 parts copper to 1 part tin stayed sharp much better than pure copper and a new defense unit, the bronze spearman, was created. Canute quickly equiped the millitia with this new material.
In 3000bc the we made contact with the Romans. In a tech trade we got 2 new technologies, the Wheel, and Warrior Code. Over in Trondhiem we had 3 spearmen units, a chariot unit, and an archer unit. We also had 2 worker groups building mines, farms, and roads. Trondhiem had also built a temple to Odin, and was building an enormous bronze statue showing our greatness.
In 2350bc we founded 2 new cities and had made contact with the Egyptians and the Greeks. Both leaders weren't to kind either. By 1400 bc we had 5 cities and discovered how to write Runic on papyrus imported from Egypt instead of carving them on stones. In the quadannual meeting with all the known nations Caesar was so furious with Alexander for calling a viking friend a fuzzball because of the heavy wool clothing and called the vikings backward people that he threw a clay pot at Alex and knocked him unconssious for a few minutes. When Alexander came to he was so mad that he declared war on us and Rome and stormed out of Canute's Palace. Canute and Caesar started planning thier corurse of attack. Greece had 3 cities, it was decided that Rome would attack the heavely defended Athens with her Legions, we would strike Sparta and Thermopylae with our horsemen.
It was morning, General Pericles was still sleepy when he looked out of his Athens villa to see Colonel Pyktos telling citzens to take refuge in the nearby fort, then from the morning fog he saw a horrifying sight; 10,000 legions and 1,500 horsemen lining up a half mile away from the palisade around Athens. The horsemen had the Scandinavian Cross painted on thier Armour, The Legion comander carried the Crest of the Roman Capitol as his shield. General Pericles quickly deployed Athens' 10,000 spearmen and 500 chariots to face the allied army. Then, out of the blue came 5,000 swordsmen wearing turbans, the Indians had arrived! Pericles was in dispair, how could he defeat so many swordsmen ahe horsemen? At that moment the horsemen charged. The wooden palisade was no mactch for the combined mass of 1,500 horses which treated the wooden poles like toothpicks! The wall gave way, but then spearmen and chariots poured out of the city and engaged the horsemen. Then the force of 15,000 foot soldiers massacred the spearmen and outdated chariots. Athens has fallen, and Alexander was dead.
