OOC: I started this a long time back on civfanatics and have been continueing it whenever I feel like it. It is based on a NES that we have running on Civfanatics (RTOR NES 2) and I figure on moving it here for more comments. Enjoy!
-Intro- (The first civilzations)
The period before the first civilizations were formed is a dark age. Only by ancient artifacts can we tell what events occured before the first true nations were created. At around what we now call 4000 BCE, we now know that there were 4 civilzations that either sprung up before or during 4000 BCE. These first civilizations were the Aztecs in Central America, the Babylonians in Mesopotamia, the Egyptians along the river Nile, and the English on the isle of Britian.
For 200 years these nations mantained peace and prosperity in their spheres of influence. In c. 3800 BCE the first known wars began. One of these was a war in between the Aztecs and a conceil of South American tribes which led to the Aztec annexation of over half the land of the southern tribes. At the same time a group of people known as the Indians arose into a nation along the Indus river. This tribe and the newly formed Persians (who were formed at about the same time in between the Babylonians and Indians) went to war olver a border dispute. This war was quickly resolved in an Indian victory with the capture of the great Persian trading city of Bactra.
In 3700 BC, the Persians who had been beaten in the first war surprised the Babylonian army and came within 100 miles of Babylon itself. The 2nd Persian war also ended in defeat for the PErsians with the Indian entry into the war in 3600 BC. Persia was formally divided by the Indians and Babylonians in 3500 BC.
At the same time a revolt began in Egypt which would eventually effect all of Asia, Africa, and Europe by one day launching the greatest war ever known in the ancient age.
-Chapter 1 (Rise of the Eithiopian Empire)-
In 3632 BC, the people living in the southern part of the Egyptian Empire rose up against the Theorcratic rule of the Pharoh and declared themselves indepentant. For almost 50 years the armies of Egypt and Eithiopia prepared for battle. At the end of that time armies of thousands marched to war.
At the battles of Sumatra, Lisbik, and kumatra the Egyptian and Eithiopian armies remained at a virtual stalemate until 3543 BC. At that time the current superpower of Greece landed a massive army at Alexandria and on the Sinai pennisula entering the war on the side of Eithiopia. For many long years the armies of Egypt and Greece clashed in the northern provinces of Egypt. By 3487 BC, the Egyptian nation was devasted. Crops had been failing due to massive droughts. Most of the nation's men had been drafted into the army to fight the Greeks. With Babylon threatening to invade Sinai the Egyptians had to make peace and recognize Eithiopia as an independant nation.
From 3300 BC to 3100 BC the Eithiopian economy florished with trade going as far west as China and as far north as the Viking Empire. Eithiopia had entered a Golden Age of trade and expansion. Eithiopia began expanding into Arabia and building colonies there. In 3343 BC Eithiopia joined a alliance known as the Central Powers, which was also the world's first true alliance. All was not peaceful, however, the drums of war were beating in the Middle East and Eithiopia's peaceful way of life in peril.
-Chapter 2 (The Vikings and the northern wars)-
Around the years 3600 and 3500 BC, two new civilizations were formed in the cold tundra of northern Europe, the Russians and Vikings. The Vikings were a warlike people constantly raiding neighboring tribes and occasionally warring amound themselves. Somewhere in the area of 3500 BC the first resistence against the Vikings was found in the Germanic tribes of northern Europe.
These Germans were constantly under seige by the Vikings and quickly went to war against them in 3426 BC. The Vikings brought the growing nation of Russia into the war against Germany and launched many attacks and raids into northern Germany with Russian support. The Russians left the war in 3187 BC and began expanding eastward. The warring completely ended in 2543 BC, with a series of cease-fires and times of uneasy peace in bewteen.
A short-lived group of resistence against the Vikings was the Central Powers. This alliance formed in 3455 BC at the Meeting of Sparta, between Ireland, Rome, and Greece. In 3343 BC the Eithiopians also joined the alliance. In 3260 BC the alliance collapse after Ireland was defeated and annexed in a brief war against England. This alliance fought wars at occasional intervals from the period from 3400 BC-3300 BC.
The tensions from the leftovers of the Viking wars eventually resulted in the northern front of World War 1 or then known as the Great War.
-Chapter 3 (the start of World War 1/ the great war)-
In 3081 BC, the nation of Rome declared war on the then superpower of Greece and allied with Babylon and the young nation of Spain (formed in 3176 BC by Iberian tribes) to bring down the superpower. In 30 short years after the world's first large naval battle at the Battle of Crete the Greek navy was no more and thier empire annexed by Babylon and Rome.
With their success in the Greek War, the nation of Babylon decided they ought to punish the nation of Eithiopia for settling in "their" territory of Arabia. The Babylonians invaded the Eithiopian colony of Oman in 3043 BC and advanced very slowly against the Iron-armed forces of Eithiopia.
The war escalated in 2954 BC with a Indian surprise attack on Babylon. Indian forces invaded almost all the way to the grreat city of Babylon itself before being stopped to beseige the city. At the same time, the Indian supported forces of Eithiopia forming the Emporer's Alliance drove north against the poorly armed Army of Babylon. In 2821 BC the city of Babylon itself fell in one of the longest seiges in history. In 2756 BC, the Egyptians entered the war and supplied the Bronze-armed army of babylon with iron weapons and invaded the Eithiopian heartland.
Despite Egypt's aid, The Emporer's Alliance continued to gain ground. By 2698 BC, the once powerful empire of Babylon was reduced to a thin strip of cities along the Mediteranian. In 2654 BC however the tide of war began to turn against the Emporer's Alliance. At this time the New Central Powers Alliance (formed in 2901 BC between Rome and Germany) began suppling weapontry to the Allied nations of Egypt and babylon.
In 2521 BC, the Viking Empire joined the Emporer's Alliance and attack the Allied nation of Russia, starting the northern front of the Great War. The war in the north began with a rapid Viking invasion of Russia's northern provinces. The fighting in the north is now believed by most historians to have been one of the most cutthroat fighting in history with the exception of the Russian crusades. Farms and people were fair game to both armies. People were sold off as slaves by both nations. Both Vikingland and Russia were damaged by the fighting in the north.
This was the start of the first world war.
Chapter 4 (The Tides Turn/End of the War)-
In 2498 BC things looked bad to the Allied commanding generals in Moscow, Thebes, and Jurusalem. The Vikings had surprise attacked the Russians in the north and were gaining ground rapidly. The Babylonians had been pushed so far back that the only province still under babylonian rule was the province of Isreal. The Egyptians had been beaten in yet another battle along the Eithiopian border.
By the century things looked different. Babylonian forces were within sight of their formerly great captitol. Eithiopia was being completely conquered by Egyptian forces and the Viking Empire was being beaten back by the Russians. What caused this change? Simply logistics. Support from Rome, Spain, and Germany had given the Allies the supplies they needed to drive the Emporer's Alliance back. Also in 2465 BC the Eithiopian Arab colonies revolted forming the Arab Confederation and opening another front on India and Eithiopia. This revolt was too much for the Eithiopians to stand and their nation quickly fell afterwards. in the north the Russians simply had too many forces for the Vikings to handle and they quickly and easily pushed the Vikings back.
The Viking Empire was the first in the Emporer's Alliance to leave the war in 2376 BC. The Viking province of Finland had been conquered by the Russians and the Viking Empire collapsed and became a virtual puppet state of the Russian Empire. The Eithiopians were beaten in 2305 BC and their army scattered. Eithiopia was fully annexed at the treaty of Alexandria in 2299 BC. India also dropped out of the war in 2287 BC when it saw that its allies had been defeated and there was nothing left to fight for.
Thus ended one of the most destructive wars in human history.
OOC: That last line is a bit of a lie. So far we have had, I believe 6 World Wars which could all be nominated for most destructive in human history. That's all i post for today. Hope you people can stand the almost history book sound to it.
