The Christians in the realm had parties everywhere, they claimed that a new century had started. They probably started counting when their so-called son of god was born, the idiots everybody knows the counting starts when Mohammed fled the city of Mekkah in their year 632. We let them party and just pretend that they party because of our royal marriage with Oman.
The French king, allways the same opportunist, declare war on the English, that are busy fighting the Scots, inthe month of april. Savoy, the Pope, Brittany, Poland and Helvetia join the fight. Navarre and Eire join the English but the Milanese wisely dishounor the allience.
Allmost a month later war breaks out in the Mediterreanian when the Turks and their allies declare war on the filthy Shiite in Egypt. I wish our Sunni brothers luck but I hope they leave some provinces for us to conquer.
Two days later Oman agrees to join our allience with Algiers and the Hafsid. Our allience of Sunni brothers is growing. I only wish we could include the mighty Turk but they seem happy with their Nubian and Aden allies.
The fair month of june sees the foul traitors of the Hedjaz enter an allience with their overlords and oppressors the Mammeluks. I wonder why faithfull Sunni would like to join those Shiite heretics.
The Hedjaz don't seem to have a large impact on the ongoing war for a few months later the Turk captures Allepo and the Nubians capture Cataract.
In december I am amazed by the genious of our noble generals, they have discovered that if they aim high enough the cannonballs of our artillery will hit the enemy instead of our own troops (discovered artillery support). I am happy we didn't own artillery in our last war, I fear the outcome would have been less positive.
A new year comes, the parties were fun except for a small group of youngsters that was drunk. I've had them 'voluntered' to set up a trading post in Mombasa.
We prepare for a new war, our peace treaty with the Spaniard has expired and we need to defend ourselvess. News reaches us that both Syria and Judea have fallen to the Turk.
I believe that attack is the best defense and therefore I declare war on the Spaniard before he is prepared for it. The 25th of march our mighty army of 31.000 infantry and 20 artillery lay siege to Toledo. Austria, Bohemia, Hungary and Lorraine join the Spanish side, Algiers, Oman and the Hafsid join our side. The allies of us and Spain won't have to fight much, only Algiers and the Hafsid are actually capable of reaching the Ibearian. I decide to use our migthy fleet and send 1000 men to the Baleares and the Canarys. Our fleet doesn't meet any resistance and quickly conquers the islands.
The same day the Turks capture Egypt.
We send our fleets to the harbour of Algiers for Sevilla is under siege by a rather large Spanish force and I fear the Spaniards wwould sink our ships if the city falls.
News reaches us that in the month of june we have established a trading post in Mombasa, now we are a colonial nation.
We have now entered the year 1502, the Spanissh are besieging Seville and our guns are pounding the walls in Toledo. I'm afaid Andalusia will be lost before we capture Toledo.
The 24th of february the peasants of Holstein give up their independance and are now ruled by the degenerate Danish. I don't care, the generals don't care and the king was surprised that there was a country called Holstein.
Sad news, on the 19th day of the second month the gate of Seville has opened for the Spanish general.Our monarch panicks and is scared to death when the Spaniards start marching for Sierra Nevada.
He fears that Granada is going to fall and that the Spanish will rape his harem, again.To help out our army the senile fool loans another 200 ducats. Now we have to pay the jewish bankers
400 ducats, the same as 10 years worth of taxes. To make matters worse the Spanish retook the Canarian Isles.
The month of august heralds a change of fortune, news reaches us some brave refugees have established a trading post on Puerto Rico. September brings even better news, Toledo is ours.
A small army is send to Murcia and the remaining infantry and artillery march to Madrid.
An envoy from our fleet in Algiers has reached me. Our admiral Isdrriss has studied the Algerian ships and now knows how to build mighty warships armed with cannonss. I congratulte the men, if wee had an unoccupied harbour and money I would surely build some.
The third of november we capture Murcia, our brave soldiers are surely doomed. The large army besieging Granada marches to Murcia and slaugthers our thousand soldiers.None the less it's a victory of some sort, Granada is no longer besieged.
The Spanish march to Toledo.
The yaer 1503 beginswith some rather good news, our beloved and totally incompetent monarch dies. He was found dead in his harem, crushed by his favorite girl Gretta. Gretta is a 150 kilo blonde he had imported from some german state. The country is know led by council of Sheiks, let us hope they prove to be more competent.
Friday the 13th of april was a lucky day, we captured Madrid. Once again the royal palace is looted, maps show us the Spanish discoveries: a group of isles called the Caraby's, a region called Brasilia and an ocean called the pacific. Strange, does thiss mean that the newly discovered lands are not Chipangu but another new world?
We have captured the Spanish king and after only a little torture he agrees to cede Toledo and the Baleares to Granada and donate 30 ducatss to our fund for the recently widowed.
We have won another great victory, al-Andalus is on the rise again.
We send a hundred holy men to the Baleares and they succeed in teaching to locals how to be good muslims. As reward for their good behavior we promote their local bailiff to a tax-collector.
Our remaining funds are spend on sending 6 traders to Venice and recruiting 5000 infantry.
Our last act this year is trading maps with Crimea, they reveal a nation of smelly furclad barbarians called Sibir. The Sibir claim to be Sunni so we trade maps with them, revealing a nation of even smellier furclad barbarians calledd Uzbeks. Allthough they are Sunni they are very hostile towardsour advanced nation, they are probably jealous.
And so ends another episode in the reconquista of the Ibearian
