Hello everyone, welcome to my Byzantine AAR. There has been many like this, but hopefully this one will be unique as I am starting in 867!
(This is NOT historical at all, this will be me writing history the way I want to <insert smiley face here/>)
Chapter 1: The defense of Sicily, Part 1: Introduction
'I'm a descendant of Augustus'- Basileios Makedon
Hello peoples of Paradox. Let me tell you a story of Basileios Makedon, and how he become the Byzantine Emperor.
The day of Coronation of Basileios Makedon
'Romans, lend me your ears. Fellow members of Byzantium. The time now calls for a ruler, a ruler who can restore order to the Byzantine Empire. One who can attack the heretic and heathen. And one who can make orthodoxy better than the other cross. And one who can have many children.
'Now the question is who should rule our glorious empire, and I see only one person fit. Me, I am descended from Augustus, ruler of Rome'.'I am actually a Roman-Hellenic Lunatic who wants power and babies' 'Makedon' is a Greek and Orthodox ed version of 'Octavius', so I ask now who is with me to restore glory to the empire'- and make lots of babies.
Alas Basileios Makedon was the Emperor of the Byzantines. However his reign was not peaceful already in 867 the Muslims were trying to take Sicily. Not on Basileios' watch.
What Basileios might describe as a sticky situation
