What happened?

Sun-braised desert nomads are plotting an invasion of the Old Kingdom of Egypt.

The Hyksos did it, maybe he can too

Oh yes. But the Hyksos only ruled for two generations.

very very true

very very true

Egypt has a long and storied history of losing wars, assimilating or out demographying the invaders, and native rule resumes, effectively. Kinda like China.

well- up until the arab conquest

[UniversalCommons]

Piye and Taharqua ruled Egypt and Nubia for 100 years. After they were done, the Egyptians attempted to remove them from the record, quite successfully for a while. The conquest occurred because Egypt became unstable and Nubia conquered them. Nubia had the best archers at the time.

Yeah. But a one hundred year reign if anything proves G's point that Egypt has a strange habit of assimilating and overcoming foreign rulers.

No peoples can resist the cool double-crown

It is not really assimilation though, Kush did not become part of Egypt. The Neo-Assyrians conquered the Egyptians and put in a puppet government.

But who weathered in the end? Kush or Egypt? Thats the point. When the Assyrians left, Egyptians were the ones to continue ruling.

Either way this is pedantic. The point is, Siwans are going to have a difficult task. Thats all we're saying.

I think its more assimilation of the rulers specifically rather than whatever culture they conquered from being integrated into Egypt. The Kushite dynasty - I believe - depicted themselves as proper Egyptian rulers, took Egyptian names / titles, sponsored traditionally Egyptian art / monuments, etc.

I am looking to see what will happen to Nubia, Aksum and Arabia. Maybe we can rob a temple library in the chaos. Something appropriately non-benevolent like what we are doing with Uruk.

Wait, is Siwa the one invading or being invaded?

Also, I believe I and Saxony-Branderburg agreed once to split Arabia for ourselves

Siwa is the one invading. But, where there is chaos, there is opportunity.

I ain’t touching that shit. My power is far softer

Who is it invading?

Hi all! I remembered saying that I am interested in the older OOC, but I seemed to forget about it. I'm back, so yay!
I'm particularly interested in East/Southeast Asian cultures, and may explore either Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Burmese, Thai or Vietnamese cultures. (I know there are already Japanese and Chinese civilizations). May submit an OC once I finish doing my research on the different cultures.

We certainly have plenty of room in East Asia - you could easily establish a prosperous southeast Chinese state. One advantage is there isn't desperately much known about this era in much of the world, so you have some latitude to work with.

For me I'd either do a:
- Chinese culture in Vietnam
- Korean/Joseon settlements north of the Korean peninsula; probably has more Chinese cultural influences
- or Thai culture

I'm going for Chinese culture in Vietnam. Vietnam is known to be quite Sino-influenced, and the Chinese ruled them for some time, so I'm excited.

Since it's night time I'm going to sleep. May post an app tomorrow morning or afternoon depending on my schedule

Mm, well, keep in mind that this is 3000 BCE. There isn't a unitary Chinese culture yet, let alone a Vietnamese culture, let alone Chinese influences in Vietnam.

Well damn. I guess I have to actually rewrite Chinese civilization.

Who's in charge of the Ming dynasty? Maybe I could refer to his works.
