Note: This is 600 AD and that it shall be in Europe, Africa, and Asia centric until I find a way to get the America's evolved in it. (It might involve China)
The 600s, a century of turmoil, religion, and conquest. This timeframe had the rise of Islam, one of the strongest women to ever control a country, and plenty of wars. These events though, will change when you take control.
The Muslim conquests began with the unification of Arabia by Muhammad starting in 622. After Muhammed's death in 632, Islam expanded beyond the Arabian Peninsula under the Rashidun Caliphate (632–661) and the Umayyad Caliphate (661–750). The Islamic conquest of Persia in the 7th century led to the downfall of the Sassanid Empire. Also conquered during the 7th century were Syria, Palestine, Armenia, Egypt, and North Africa.
The Byzantine Empire continued suffering setbacks during the rapid expansion of the Arab Empire.
In the Iberian Peninsula, the 7th century was the Siglo de Concilios, that is, century of councils, referring to the Councils of Toledo.
Harsha united Northern India, which had reverted to small republics and states after the fall of the Gupta Empire in the 6th century.
In China, the Sui dynasty was replaced by the Tang dynasty, which set up its military bases from Korea to Central Asia, and was next to the Arabian later. China began to reach its height. Silla allied itself with the Tang Dynasty, subjugating Baekje and defeating Goguryeo to unite the Korean Peninsula under one ruler. The Asuka period persisted in Japan throughout the 7th century.
All of the events listed above and more happened in real life. But now, on this playing field, they might not. They date is January 1st 600 AD/CE. The Byzantine Empire is the strongest country on the planet, stretching from part of Morocco to part of Italy. China grows in power as the Middle East is in turmoil. Some say that the Church will soon have a new opponent. This though, is also up to you.
Rules:
1. No Metagaming
2. No OOC arguing
3. No Cheating
4. You might be conquered, if this happens, you can either pick to have your empire go into exile (Have your leader flee to an allied nation) or pick a totally new nation.
5. Wargoals must make sense, none, and I mean none, of the Nazi stuff (so the area of Poland is safe... for now, any way this basically means that don't just make your wargoal conquer everything)
6. In IC I want only serious posts.
7. A turn (which I will explain how it works if this rp gets of the ground) will last 10 years and happen every 5 day.
As stated above, there will be turns, if this rp gets off the ground I will explain how turns work.
