Yup, have for a while. With the war in Sumer finished, I’ve gotten horses in surplus as well.

I can’t wait until I get to trade with you and Axum gets to see some real Mongols.

If it’s only 20 years, then he’ll be part of the current ruling class.

I really doubt that you would be able to pull off an invasion of Southeast Asia for a variety of reasons.

Which involved rejecting their previous nomadic culture and adopting a more sedentary way of life. :p

I thought you’d say that he was going to be killed off before then.

Indirect trade with China in limited quantities will probably be common in the Indus in ten years, it would be interesting what we can do with that. I was thinking of having the Imperium in Germany be viewed as an equally powerful opposite of China and you or Egypt being associated with the Yue to China’s south, as both cultures are south of the big empires and in great positions for trade.

Little things like Christian religious artifacts or Chinese iron plates stamped with English words might make their way around the world by then - it’d be fun to RP how knowing some other time travelers are out there affects our authors.

An invasion of Southeast Asia might not be possible, but military leaders from China won’t know that until they try.

I'd put it closer to twenty. From your China to the Indus River Valley is literally over a thousand miles of 0 infrastructure, two deserts, no downstream rives, and the worlds tallest mountain range. Of course, the moment that Aaron comes upon the Alpha-Chads of Tibetan, of whom Issac ( now Itzhag ) counts himself a member of - i'll gladly accept you as a vassal, and I might let you pass into the Himalaya's.

Alright, I look forward to paving a road to Europe with Tibetan bones.

I liked your post a lot too, it was great you introduced the culture and language of the place. I think I’ll put some stuff about culture in my next post that was just going to be about politics.

Universal, in response to your plague post, i'll go ahead and make the following assesment:

You're doing the right thing, in terms of reducing casualty rates in the city - however, you should be aware that, very soon, you're going to start seeing the plague pop up in most major and coastal Nestosian settlements. Varna, being a major trade port after all, would have sent doubtless dozens of infected across the league in the week proceeding the outbreak.

Second, and I don't see a need to write this out as an event when I can just tell you; in the city of Varna itself, the a not insignificant number of the urban dwellers are going to begin attacking the sick patrols and temple of the body parts priests. Them stealing their sick family members and sticking them into what is essentially a morgue being an unacceptable option - they'll turn to revolt instead.

I've been a bit slow in reading recent posts so i'll just be periodically putting down my observations for a bit:

and Sax, where did you get tea from? I, mean, it's a pretty small thing, but tea is still exclusively located in East Asia right now.
