A direct Christian sea route to the East would have been (probably) cheaper and (certainly) more reliable than Portugal's ocean route - the only question I have about giving BYZ similar effects to ENG's event is that ENG would probably have a far better financial infrastructure and entrepreneurial spirit.

Palaiologid dynasty events
