The History of the Modern Age

[Chris 62]

It seems that the same problem has happened to page four that happened to pages 2 and 3. But it should work for the rest of the way.

Who has it now?

It should be Henrik, I think.

[Henrik]

*Sorry this has been a very bussy week.*
Today all of the money from our acounts went into a major buildup effort, this was done for two reasons:
1: This will really help the commerce through the kingdom.
2: Should any daring thief try to sneak into the royal pallace and steal our beloved savings he should find nothing, it has all been invested.
The commercial states have payed thier annual tribute as usual but the Berbers in an extremly selfconfident move declared war when they where requiered to pay thier annual tribute to the king of France.
I forsee that they wont last long whitout our help, even Spain should be able to finnish them off now ( )

Greece has settled down and is now being incorporated into the Ottoman Empire. Crete has been pacified and the locals seem to have resigned themselves to their new masters. Italians or Turks, it doesn't seem to matter much to the Cretans. Increasing trade with north Africa is not only adding wealth to the Sultan's treasury, but is also stimulating our engineers to consider better methods of sanitation. The Sublime Porte looks forward to the day when a better understanding of drainage and sewer systems will allow our towns to grow even larger. Those European infidels might also want to consider exchanging some of their knowledge for this advantage.

Inshallah!

HRH Charles spurns the offers of the infidels! "We wish no knowledge that comes from the devil" his Majesty has said. In other Imperial news, the Italian Merchant States have sent tribute in the amount of 125 gold pieces. His Majesty was greatly pleased with this news. Long live the Hapsburgs! By order, HRH Charles, Holy Roman Emperor.<>File sent to Fiera(Spain).

Granada is ours at last! The Castilian banner can now be seen over the towers of the Alhambra! The Spanish Reconquista has come, under my wise rule, to its end. It's a day of great joy for all Christians, and I swear that my fight against the infidels has only started...

Santiago y España!

[Henrik]

In France all is well.

Turkish fleet units gather in the waters north of Rhodes. Trade is brisk with the Barbary kingdoms. Hawks gather.

Inshallah!

HRH Charles calls on all the lands of his domain to resist the Turkish Deveils! "The hordes of Satan again try to invest Pressburg, but it shall never fall" His Majesty has said. In other Imperial news, trade continues to florish throughout the empire, and all is well. Long live the Hapsburgs! By order, HRH Charles, Holy Roman Emperor. <>File sent to Fiera(spain).

All is well in Spain. Our peasants keep on working hard for the good of the Kingdom, while the Pope is recently showing more interest in our Holy Crusade against the Berbers, offering to help our expenses with 200 gold.

Some of the infidel defenders of Rhodes have fortified themselves in the hills outside the town itself. The Turkish admirals prepare their plans for taking the city. Soon the crusades will be avenged!
