Returning Home - A Golden Horde AAR

[enkhuush]

12. Reforming Government is hard.

It's become usual for begin my note with declaration of war. This time we declared war against Riga.

Shortly after we received happy news. Christian England is in religious turmoil!

War against Riga ended with stalemate and we decided to attack Poland by using Aquileia.

As result of war we weakened Poland.

Then suddenly our Khagan left world peacefully.

Our new Khagan is certainly good at administration and new era of our country began!

Current map of us in the year of 1510.

And world map.

 

[Duke of Wellington]

Your empire looks good. I'd only be worried about that Ottoman Empire creeping up the Balkans. They might deny you some good territory and become a powerful foe. Excellent job getting out of the tribal government.

 

[Didaa]

OE can be very hard, and good job so far

 

[enkhuush]

To Duke of Wellington: Tnx, I hope OE will collapse one day.
To Didaa: Yep and thank you.

13. We are now called Empire!

So note begins by war that nothing achieved.

We declared ourselves "The Empire of Golden Horde" in 1516. Hurray!

And our empire's first target is of course Poland.

Objective achieved by grabbing Grodno.

Next we have no territorial ambition against Bohemia, so we let them live for now.

Our Khagan will be remembered as reformer died in his bed on the rainy night of Poland. His last wish was "Rea... reach ... endless wa... water in ... the west. Then ... ret... ret... retur... to home." and he passed away. He left this crude world, when his son too young to rule.

Soon Shadi Beg I Khagan old enough to rule our Empire.

He continued our ancestor's tradition.

His first achievement is subjugation of Krakow.

 

[Enewald]

Still you are a Khagan?
Why not Imperator of the Seas of Grass?

 

[enkhuush]

"Imperator of the Seas of Grass"! Good name.

 

[Enewald]

"Imperator of the Seas of Grass"! Good name.

Well, that's Genghis Khan in mongolian I believe.
Or something like King of Grass Plains.
Just chech it from somewhere, can't remember it, gosh.

That's disputed

There are many theories about the origins of Temüjin's title. Since people of the Mongol nation later associated the name with ching (Mongolian for strength), such confusion is obvious, though it does not follow etymology.

One theory suggests the name stems from a palatalised version of the Mongolian and Turkic word tenggis, meaning "ocean", "oceanic" or "wide-spreading". (Lake Baikal and ocean were called tenggis by the Mongols. However, it seems that if they had meant to call Genghis tenggis they could have said (and written) "Tenggis Khan", which they did not. Zhèng (Chinese: 正) meaning "right", "just", or "true", would have received the Mongolian adjectival modifier -s, creating "Jenggis", which in medieval romanization would be written "Genghis".

Anyway, nice job getting out of tribal and now becoming an empire, enkuush. Keep it up!

 

[enkhuush]

Tnx, Junuxx. For us Mongolians we say Chinghis Khaan and widely believed it's like 'Ocean or Tengis'.

Still you are a Khagan?
Why not Imperator of the Seas of Grass?

Why would he want to, seeing as how Khagan means, IIRC, King of Kings?

Good going thus far, I shall be following. Divide et impera seems to be a good tactic thus far, but beware of the strong alliances you will have to face as soon as you reach central Europe.

 

[unmerged(49695)]

great AAR, keep up with the nice job

 

[Duke of Wellington]

I'm glad that the new Khagan doesn't plan on changing current conquest policy.

 

[enkhuush]

---FEEDBACK---

To CSK: Thank you. For now strong alliances are no problem, but blobs are problem.
To Colonel_General: It's very hard to maintaining Golden Horde empire. But with your support I'll make it.
To Duke of Wellington: Yep. Actually Eastern Europe is almost finished by us and Ottomans.

Update coming shortly.

14. Empire with one ship. (1524-1544)

Good news always comes first and here it is.

After capturing Polish sea provinces, they burned all their ships. So our empire whose got one ship is now has superior naval force than them.

Our next target is newly proclaimed Teutonic Order.

What happened to Teutons is clear. Then we challenged two western the strongest European countries. But it was really bad idea.

Meantime we added our vassals' number.

We went bankrupt and revived our economy again. World map in 1544:

Our Empire:

 

[Enewald]

You need to beat every European power and make everyone fear the Khan.
Too slow the golden horde is!

 

[enkhuush]

May be. But I'll try my best to reach objectives.

 

[unmerged(131161)]

There should be a mission "Embrace our Siberian heritage" Instant Siberian colonizing to Darien

 

[Duke of Wellington]

So I see even Germany is starting to get vassals in it. The Holy Roman Emperor ought to be trembling. I like it that that was the 19th war of GH Agression .

 

[enkhuush]

To Unibrow: I agree with you.
To Duke of Wellington: It will be hard. Because Germany has Austria blob. But I hope our HR vassals will help us.
