No, that's Renaissance stuff. You should be contained to late-Roman tech.

Im sure all of these existed in crude forms during the mid to late middle ages. Mills definitely were present during the middle ages, hour glasses were used by yeomen, telescope... okay, thats a bit too far ahead, so no telescope then. And blast furnaces were developed by gegorian monks, so those were even in the dark ages.

True, but all them were in crude forms, scattered across the world, and not widely used or known. Having a recently developed nation far away from the centres of population and innovation getting them, all around the same time even, isn't realistic. You can still have tech dev, but tone it down.

Ah yes, sorry. All the same, a Western European Trade League (WETL) could also be achieved. Many nations would want to join such a league headed by such powerful and illustrious nations.

Your test scores indicate that you are an open-minded progressive; this is the political profile one might associate with a journalist. It appears that you are skeptical towards religion, and have a generally optimistic attitude towards humanity in general.
Your attitudes towards economics appear communist, and combined with your social attitudes this creates the picture of someone who would generally be described as a humanist. 
To round out the picture you appear to be, political preference aside, a sensible realistic egalitarian with several strong convictions.

Everywhere in the world. Of course, at this time in history, Europe is where everything's going down ;) but we have several players in Asia, Oceania and the Americas too.

Unfortunately both of them are currently taken, I believe. There are other powers in the region such as Sulu in the Philippines, and small Altaic tribes in Mongolia and Kazakhstan (perhaps join the other two we already have?)

The underlined part is where the problem lies, my friend.
We're going to enter the High Middle Ages soon. Some things, like the telescope, were invented a bunch of centuries later.

You can have any color you want, because you're in New Zealand, which is far away from the rest. I color far-away countries with the same colors, so I don't run out of colors.
Don't listen to them, they seem to confuse people intentionally. :/

Korea is not taken anymore. The player has just been deleted for inactivity. But if you take Korea, watch out: you're being attacked by Japan.

@Horus, yeah I'm not even on the map yet. My territory is on the wiki.

@Polaris, you didn't respond to us turning you down for trade and asking if you have anything better.

@Polaris, I actually had the first longships. I wrote about them on my wiki but I suppose I didn't mention it IC.
