The year is 1440 and the world is slowly shrinking as there are explorations around the world, and wars letingt nations intermingle with each others cultures, the arts are advancing while religion and science clash between what is right and wrong about the universe. Humanism is becoming a thing as individuals start to think for themselves and bring new ideas into a new era. Now it is up too you what you do with your nation in its early stages of being a sovereign nation.

1440, Fensworth, Kingdom of Rostrog

The coronation of King Edward the III has just ended and the first order of business the king has is to increase the naval capacity of the kingdom. While also building trade with other nations in the immediate region. Catholicism is the only religion in Rostrog and the Church has a heavy presence in the Royal Court of the King. So far the country is at peace and relatively strong market wise. Now it is a waiting game to see what rises over the horizon with the sun and what it brings in tail to the Kingdom of Rostrog.

The Grand Abdication of King Olex I was far gone behind with Paseo stepping into a new era with a new queen. Paseo went through many changes and reforms to finally live its golden age. Schools were continuing to build around the kingdom along with the third university coming along. All lower, middle and high nobility kids could attend university. All male kids could attend profession schools, all female kids and male kids could attend basic schooling. Merchants from south started to widely come in along from west France too. Third City has appeared and the archers number was growing. All religions were welcomed but the Queen knew that the expansion of the kingdom is needed and looking beyond the high hills, she headed out to seek expansion, diplomacy and trade.

It was a quiet day in the capital, people were going around buying and selling, soldiers patrolled the streets but were always happy to have a chat with some one. The poor hung around the church as a Father preached to them about servitude to God and following in the footsteps of Jesus Christ. A young man ran through the streets his pants tucked neatly into his leather boots. He ran and ran until he reached the docks and called out for his captain.

"Sir, I have orders from the King to give to you" the young man passed on the orders to the much older captain who looked at them.

"An expedition into Scandinavia and into the Mediterranean...hmmm well King's orders." the captain sighed and nodded his head then looked around.

"We set sail in one day. Gather supplies and weapons and prepare the other two ships to embark with us. Step to it lads." the Captain went to his quarters to write a letter to his wife. There were a total of three ships about to sail out; the Constance, Saint Michael, and the Morning Star. Each had a crew of twelve and a contingent of fifteen soldiers. Each was armed with five cannons on both port and starboard side and two cannons on the bow. It was a relatively small fleet of ships for an expedition but there was no need to start a war so three ships would do just fine.

Orsha has been busy as always, with the main market bursting with people, kids rushing to schools and elders having a rest at a near park. Women were beginning to do major cleaning as Christmas was on its way along with men heading out to major jobs. But working woman also went to out to work. As you walked you would notice a community of Muslims arguing, to then not far off find Catholics heading to the church along with the Jewish community trading goods at the local market. Oh and another group of Protestants have arrived from France. However Orsha Centre was louder than usually with a massive crowd appearing.
"Let me see this!" Shouted an older woman
"It's the Levuas again!" A man shouted and the crowd cheered

The Levuas would come out giving a theatrical spectal giving the Orsha citizens a good time.

The gardens of Orsha will also beginning to be developed apparently with first flowers coming in -Lord Vladost of Orsha
