Warvoid, Sarai did not even exist in 1000 AD, or if it did, it was a tiny and inconseqential village. Khazaran-Atil, on the other hand, was a huge metropolis for its time. It was a trade center for merchants from all over Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. It was also very diverse. There were Christians, Jews, Moslems, Buddhists, Pagans, and Turkic Shamanists living together there in peace. This story thread needs realism. The Khazar Kagan would not move his capital from this wonderful city to a tiny miserable village.
Also, Warvoid, you should know that around 850 AD the Khazar Kagan and a very large percentage of his subjects converted to Judaism. Believe me on this, I have researched the Khazars extensively. By 1000 AD Judaism was so prevalent among the Khazars that Hebrew had become the language used by most of the common people, not just the leaders.

In response to Bearcat and Midshipman:
I will be the chief mod, but for co-mod, I am deciding between Warvoid, Bearcat, and ScottF. Any suggestions?
We will wait a week or so to see if more people register and to allow people to do some research. Remember, historical accuracy is essential. So, please try to attract new participants and do research.
If anyone needs some info, simply post aa request here and I'll try to get it for you.

It was before the Normans took it over. Ireland was ruled by counties (families). That's kinda all you need to know.

I'll take the Fatmids. FYI, most of the Islamic nations, with the exception of the Emirate of Cordoba, of course, were Fatmid dependencies. God Damn whoever took the Emirate of Cordoba, I wanted it. *grumbles*Long Live Nippon!http://www.fotw.net/images/jp^gsfc1.gif

Well, in case anyone wonders how Cordova looks around 1000. It's almost at the end of it's golden age. In 929 it has seperated itself from the Sultan. The third king Hisham III was under the influence of Al Mansoer. This was a chamberlain (that the right word?) He defated Barcelona and Coimbra, and even conquered Santiago de Compostella. He died however in 1023. Afterbhis death the Califath fell apart in small Taifas, who fell one by one to the christian states, as the divided christian states had fallen to the Arabs. I will play from the viewpoint of Al-Mansoer. and Castilia will be my prime concern. (Had some troubles there recently, I'll read about it and tell you more)
So, happy GeoDan?Fire and ice and death awaiting. But he was steel, he was steel.
