I have decided to pm my votes for this round because tech
Capital: create a library
Cilis: Discover Chemistry
Gantzos: create warships
Toliopolis:trade with oofer for
Halberds for honey and ports
A few new cities are founded: Mendebalde on the Aude delta to the west, Trukatu at the location of real life Genoa and Aurki Izan on the Magra further into Italy yet.

The trade and evangelism mission this time is to Helenes, where whatever metal tech is fair is traded for microscopes. Berpizte makes the great temple of Iragarmen even better. The rest of Uharte works on, I don’t know, soap? Ardao makes a road system connecting to the new Italian cities with the rest of Etxe.
Soon I’m going to have too many actions to know what to do with. Help. Also, sorry about doing a non-turn post here, I though I was about to do my actual turn but I didn’t.

Story
A new nation emerges, ready to leave its mark in history! The Bananramians are finally destroyed for good, and the Coyotl merged with the Mexicans.
Volume 2: Diffusion
Round 59 - 100 BC
Phoenicia
Leader: Tekis
Actions: [Global] Prison, [Global] Gunpowder, [Global] Tyrinics
Result: 11/20, 16/20 +2 = 18/20, 12/20
You build a facility to imprison the criminals and punish them for their deeds. After a while, they were brought to the centre and executed. The cultists are now truly gone, and you now have prisons, which help reduce the crime rate.
It seems gunpowder is spreading all around the world simultaneously. As you heard from the Mongols that they had a mysterious fire powder, your scientists figure out the formula to make their own. You now have gunpowder, but with some more scientific knowledge, maybe it can be put to better use…
As a celebration of the victory of the Mongols over the cruel Bananarama, Phoenicia establishes the Tyrinics, an annual competitive competition pitting nations against each other in various sport divisions, from wrestling to racing. After building the stadium, the next step is contacting different civs so they may participate in them. The more civs participate, the more income you’ll rake in, and the new entertainment will boost your population’s happiness, as soon as the competition starts.
Defense roll: 10/20 -9 +12 = 13/20
It was inevitable. Ever since you denied the Persians, an attack was bound to happen, but you didn’t know when. Once you saw the army of chain-armoured soldiers, you scrambled to gather your men and prepare for combat. It was a close fight, but you won. You had 48 casualties, while the Persian troops suffered 59 before surrendering and being captured (for reference, they had 132 units, so you had the advantage of numbers). Their commander informs you that this was nothing but a small sample of the Persian army, with a lot more soldiers coming. This surprise attack scared your population, reducing your stability.

Actions: [187 builders] Secret Action, [385] Library, [Global] Chemistry, [Global] Warship, [Global] Trade with Mongolia
Result: 17/20 -8 +4 = 13/20, 15/20 -7 +3 = 11/20, 19/20 +14 = 20/20!, 10/20 Success, 13/20 +15 = 20/20!
Your secret action is a success, making you establish you-know-what granting +3 to [secret] rolls. If anyone other than yp364 is reading this and is angry, know that you can also do this. If you want to know what the thing is, spy on yp’s civ, or reach some sort of agreement.
You build a great library to store information about anything, from scrolls of medicine to mom’s cabbage soup recipe. Regrouping knowledge in one spot is great for research, granting +2 to research rolls.
Thanks to the great research conditions of Hellenes, scientists can make marvelous discoveries. This time, they expanded in the field of chemistry, making observations based on different substances’ reactions, leading to the development of the theory of atomism, granting +2 to research rolls in scientific fields.
Thanks to your Docks, shipbuilding is easy. When you tasked your people to build a ship designed for war, they wasted no time trying out different designs. They end up with Triremes, granting +4 to sailing rolls and +2 to combat rolls if used as units during a battle. It takes 8 people per ship, but they are great against each base unit.
You send your trade caravan to Musa Sapientum Fixa, the new Mongolian city, in search of new weapons. Your traders catch a glimpse of some halberds for sale, and decide to trade their knowledge of ports for them. Since you got a 20, the halberds grant +2 in combat rolls when heavy infantry units are used, but normally, they would only grant +1, since you already have a heavy infantry unit weapon.
Also, you were visited by the people of Etxe, who traded their mechanised tools for your microscope, increasing your population. They also converted some of your people to their religion.

Actions: [103 diplomats] Federate with Kugelland, [103 diplomats] Explore Southern Italy, [103 diplomats] Meet Tarkahmehd, [309 diplomats, warriors] Help the Celts, [103 scientist] Cartography, [103 scientists] Better villages, [103 engineers] Ships
Result: 18/20 -8 +7 = 17/20, 19/20 -8 +5 = 16/20, 14/20 -8 +5 = 11/20, 12/20 -6 +9 = 15/20, 11/20 -8 +8 = 11/20, 16/20 -8 +3 = 11/20, 15/20 -8 +8 = 15/20
You sent your diplomats over to Kugelland in order to ask to federate with them. When you arrived, the people there had kind of forgotten about Britannia, due to lack of interaction. Furthermore, you weren’t allies, so they had no interest in federating with you. So, in an effort to improve your relations, you gave them microscopes, so that it can help them defeat the plague. They thank you, and you increase your relations.
The other diplomats are sent to explore the Southern side of the continent. Once they arrived at Italy’s “foot”, they discovered the Lucanians, a thriving and more peaceful civilization, independent of the Hellenes. You start off on great relations.
On the way there, your diplomats also met with the people of Tarkahmehd.They are a very big nation, but are relatively friendly.
You propose to help the Celts with their raider problems. You generously offer your soldiers to defend the Celts. Once the raiders arrived again, they were surprised by the retaliation and the entire raiding party was either killed or captured, with their ships seized by you. The Celts are grateful that the vikings should stop bothering them for now, and increase your relations, making you now allies.
Your scientists decide to make a map of your region, developing cartography. While it would be more efficient on a parchment, cartography grants +2 to exploration rolls or +3 to rolls where you revisit an area, whether it’s for trading or warfare.
Your scientists analyse current trends in population and regions, leading them to design a formula for efficient city building. This makes villages use space more efficiently, increasing population.
This time, your engineers build longships, which allow you to sail further away and grant +3 to sailing rolls.
You do not gain spare population from the permanent farm due to not having any farmers.

Result: 12/20 -8 +22 = 20/20!, 20/20! -8 +3 = 15/20, 19/20 -8 +3 = 14/20, 19/20 +15 = 20/20!, 14/20 +3 = 17/20
Sorry for scrapping some of your actions, I know you’re pretty busy and aren’t always around to consult so I took a few liberties and edited your actions, removing redundant ones like linking the new cities with roads (which is applied automatically) and adding missing actions, such as founding the new cities. By the way, if you feel you’re running out of things to do, maybe you can start colonising new lands, or start researching different scientific fields to start industrialising. Anyways, you visit the Hellenes, trading their microscopes for your mechanised tools. Microscopes grant +2 to research rolls in the scientific field. You also take the opportunity to spread Iragarmen to the people, converting many. On your way back, you found the Lucanians, which you also converted.
You establish the new cities of Mendebalde, Trukatu and Aurki Izan, making room for people to move in, increasing your population. (I lumped the 3 cities here to save space)
Your researchers discover soap, which is effective to combat disease and keep people healthy, increasing population and granting -2 to disease rolls in the event of a great sickness.

You establish two new villages, Balena and Dirdam. They create space for new people, increasing population. You now have 9 global actions. Now that you have over 10 000 population, I will roll a d40, since, as you can see, almost all your research rolls are twenties.
With your knowledge of mathematics and gunpowder, you create muskets, which right now are pretty inaccurate and hard to use, but can become very deadly if worked on more. Muskets grant +2 to combat rolls (Normally you would start with a fire lance of sorts, but you got a 20, so you skipped to muskets. To advance further, you need tier 2 physics). You also make cannons, which you mount onto your walls to make advanced reinforced walls, granting -4 to opponents’ combat rolls. They can also be mounted onto ships.
Thanks to lots of research, your philosophers perfected the process of charcoalisation, supplying you with lots of charcoal, as long as you have plenty of wood around (your tab for other technologies is starting to look like a Minecraft inventory haha).
In an effort to expand your smithing arsenal, you improve your furnaces through a variety of intricate techniques and make blast furnaces. Now, you can melt iron and rid it of its impurities. There’s no extra benefit you can get from this, so it’s just a 20 with no bonus.
With the new blast furnaces and charcoal, you have all the necessary components to make steel. You can now make things out of steel.
Also, you were visited by the Britannians, who were just passing by.

Result: 18/20 -7 = 11/20, 20/20! -7 = 13/20, 18/20 -8 +11 = 20/20!, 14/20 -7 +3 = 10/20, 17/20 -7 +3 = 13/20
Now that the Coyotl surrendered, their civilization was yours to claim. They actually only consisted of one village, but it was very big. After renovations and restoration, you absorbed the Coyotl and Tlacopan finally belonged to Mexica. Kaajal was burnt and his army (or, rather, its remains) was now yours. You gained population and an extra global action. As for new technology, you incorporated the Coyotl’s stone walls, as well as their turkey flocks, which you started farming, increasing your population.
You increase your population due to the influx of new land, technology and domesticated animals.
Your scholars take the opportunity to dissect different animals and fallen warriors, in an effort to learn more about the world of the inside. Thye learn more about biology, which unlocks new potential medicine. They also learn how to gut the birds better, providing more meat and increasing your population.
Unfortunately, you fail to establish schools.
You establish a new village South of the lake, named Austahuala. This increases your population and grants an extra global action.

You establish two new villages, one in Russia, near Akkalat, and one in Urumqi. These increase your population and grant two extra global actions. You’ve reached your village cap. To lift the cap, all your villages must become cities, which happens when their population reaches 500.
You decide to attack the Persians, seeing as their army had left, by moving in and barricading them, cutting off their food routes and declaring a siege. They don’t seem to have retaliated yet, and they should start starving in 4 turns. As for you, you should start starving in 6 turns.
In response to the lack of food in Akkalat, you make your people forge iron tools, which should help them harvest food better, so they can export more there. It’ll do for now, and the people will stop complaining, but your happiness will rise again once the herds are returned.
You fail to increase your population.
Also, you were visited by the Hellenes. They built ports in Burkhag Beleg for you, which grant +2 to sailing rolls and grant guaranteed success to shipbuilding rolls, in exchange for your halberds. You start on good terms due to your similar philosophies.

You attack the Bananaraman faction with your soldiers without hesitation. They were bigger than the initial 22 settlers of the Farenit village, but that didn’t stop you from defeating them with your superior gear, despite being outnumbered. With only 12 casualties, you can now claim the new village
You establish a government where the people choose their leader and are represented that way, in other words, a republic. This grants a +2 to research rolls.
You already had shields. So you have an extra global action in your time bank.

Actions: [Global] Gears, [37 researchers] Cure, [80] Silk Clothes
Result: 10/20 +4 = 14/20, 18/20 -8 +5 = 15/20, 15/20 -7 +4 = 12/20
To expand into more complex machinery, you need to invent mechanisms, such as gears. With a few more prerequisites, you can unlock complex machinery.
Your researchers start undergoing research for a possible cure. They will need time to complete it, spanning multiple turns.
Your people make clothes out of the silk fabric, which has very high value. If you could just start selling it to other nations, you could make lots of profit.
Also, you were visited by Britannia. They had proposed to federate with you, but due to the current pandemic and your relations, you refuse. Instead, they give you microscopes, granting +2 to scientific research rolls, and wish you good luck before leaving hastily to prevent infection.
Since you cannot federate, you get one global action in the time bank.

I’m moving my travelers back to the capital because it sounds like every city automatically has ports. Some new cities are founded. Behere at the location of Saint-Florent in real life Corsica, Bazter on the Bidasoa delta in Basque country, Zubi at the location of real world Anzio near Rome and the outpost of Norgehiagoka at the mouth of the Bussento in southern Italy.

All scholars across the nation not otherwise engaged, 200 farmers from Berpizte and 200 missionaries go on a plague-busting humanitarian mission to Kugelland, bringing as much soap and medicinal plants as they can. The other traders and missionaries go to Phonecia and trade gunpowder for math. The rest of Berpizte tries to invent steam-powered mills and Trukatu works on paper books, while everyone else works to develop algebra.
I await the demands of the people of Hellenes.

Phoenicia
Leader: Tekis
Actions: [Global] Federate with Hollow Sand, [Global] Invite all known nations to the Tyrinics, [136 soldiers] Bombs, [90] Irrigation
Result: 7/20 +5 = 12/20, 10/20 +5 = 15/20, 20/20! -6 +5 = 19/20, 15/20 -7 +2 = 10/20
Since you had very good relations with Hollow Sand and got along splendidly with them, you decided to federate with them and unite each other. They agree, which is great news for you. You share all of your technology, and get one extra global action each. I’ll reformat you next round because I’m already pretty tired.
You invite Mongolia and Etxe to the Tyrinics, and they both accept! You’ll make a fair bit of money with the tourism and entry fee, and the entertainment boosts your population’s happiness.
Your soldiers make bombs with the gunpowder, which grant +2 to combat rolls when paired with ships or siege weapons.
The remaining people fail to establish proper irrigation.
Also, you were visited by the people of Etxe, who gave you their intermediate mathematics for your gunpowder.

You improve your relations with Tarkahmehd by offering your knowledge of chemistry and cartography as a gift.
The Lucanians were going through a bit of a food shortage when you met with them, so you sacrificed your permanent farms and solved their food problems. You’re now allies.
Despite your efforts, your relations remain the same with the Celts.
While exploring the shores of the mainland, you came across a new civilization, the Saxons. They are distrustful of strangers due to their warring nature.
Your engineers make gears, which are prerequisites to various machinery. They also make coil springs out of bronze, which are a prerequisite to certain machines.
The rest of your engineers develop the fluyt, a great cargo vessel capable of traversing large bodies of water. These grant +4 to sailing rolls and +2 to trading rolls.
You develop masonry, which grants +3 to infrastructure rolls.
You develop geology. I have no idea what bonus can apply to that. Any suggestions?

Since the steam machine has many prerequisites, here are two of them since you got a 20. You develop gears and pistons. You will also need a good supply of coal or charcoal before building a steam machine.
Your people improve parchments by making books, which are more compact and can store more information, granting +4 to research rolls. I don’t know what to add as a bonus to that.
You send a squad on a trading quest to Phoenicia and trade their gunpowder for your intermediate mathematics. Your missionaries also preached while there, spreading Iragarmen, but this time keeping the new followers in their homeland.
The remaining missionaries and other people were drafted and sent to Kugelland, where they heard there was a plague. Swearing an oath to bust all plagues, your people gave them soap and medicine in an effort to stop the spread of the plague. This increases your relations with the people of Kugelland.
You build the 3 new cities in their locations, except Norgehiagoka because you ran out of possible actions. These grant 3 more global actions and increase your population.
You improve your mathematics by using algebra, granting +4 to research rolls instead of +3.
By the way, you’re not supposed to shift population between cities, just so you know for next time. It would cost an action to do so. I also decided that your heliocentrism became tier 2 astronomy, since it was a 20, which grants +2 to science rolls.

You establish Tarcie, your tenth village and final natural source of global actions. Establishing more villages is still possible, but won’t grant any further global actions.
You develop a moderate understanding of physics, granting +2 to research rolls and unlocking new potential technologies.
You improve your armour by making plate armour (a prerequisite to steel armour), which grants +6 to combat rolls.
Your shields are upgraded to steel, making them more durable and granting +5 to combat rolls.
You create Spy-Away, an anti-spying agency, which grants -4 to nations that try to spy on you.
A police task force is established, lowering the crime rate.
Unfortunately, you fail to develop a better building method.
When you heard of Kugelland’s conundrum, you wanted to help out any way you could. You decided to approach them cautiously and gift them blueprints to the science hubs and hospitals, in hope that they would improve research for the cure.
You build hospitals to treat the sick, which raise your population.
Also, you were visited by the Mongols, who came for trade. You were naturally fearful of them, having heard spine-chilling tales of their merciless conquest and thirst for blood, so naturally, you were a little tense around them. Nevertheless, you traded your cannons and muskets for their sheep and city planning, which both increase your population.
You were also visited by Britannia, who offered their knowledge of chemistry and cartography as a gift, increasing your relations.

You establish a market, which is great for trading and especially useful to others, granting +4 to trading rolls to other nations that are trading with you.
By wanting to have the most populated city, Montezuma decided to merge most villages together, forming one great city, Mexihà. As a side effect, since you merged 3 cities into one, you lose 2 global actions, but as a bonus, you increase your population drastically.
Chemistry and physics are 2 new sciences developing in Mexica. Chemistry grants +2 to scientific research rolls, while physics grants +1 to tech research rolls.

Leader: Kada Khan
Actions: [800 Warriors] Full Frontal Assault, [Global] Laws, [Global] Mechanised tools, [Global] Boats, [Global] Eagles, [Global] New Village, [Global] Trade with Tarkahmehd
Result: 6/20 -46 +54 = 14/20, 19/20 +2 = 20/20!, 16/20 +7 = 20/20!, 6/20 +7 = 13/20, 18/20, 15/20 +2 = 17/20, 9/20 +7 = 16/20
You engage in a full frontal assault of the capital. It seems you were almost equally matched, despite your superiority in numbers, but you eventually won the battle of Babylon. It was a bloody fight from both sides, with 213 deaths on the Mongols side, and 307 from the Persian side (in comparison, they had 412 warriors). You will now starve in 5 turns, while the Persians will starve in 3 turns.
You implement laws, which help lower the crime rate even further.
You upgrade your tools even further, mechanising them, increasing your yields and your population.
You develop rafts, which enable boat travel, which could be useful in the Egyptian province, but not very practical in land-locked Mongolia. They add +1 to sailing rolls.
You domesticate eagles, which you use as carrier pigeons and hunters, increasing your population and granting +4 to spy rolls or +3 to research rolls.
You settle a new village in Egypt, granting an extra global action and increasing your population.
You send your traders West until they reach an indefinitely large body of water, wherein they meet the Tarkahmehd. They were chilly, due to the notorious infamy of the Mongols, but were open to trade anyways. You give them some of your herds and your knowledge of city planning for their intriguing new weaponry. Muskets grant +2 to combat rolls when used by musketeers, while cannons on their own do nothing, but can be mounted on ships and walls, or used as siege weapons, which grant +2 to combat rolls, or +7 if used against infrastructure.

Result: 16/20, 8/20 +4 = 12/20, 18/20 +4 = 20/20!, 8/20 +1 = 9/20
You renovate the village and claim it as your land, increasing your population and granting an extra global action. You may name the village.
You develop mathematics, which are useful for building siege engines and grant +1 to research rolls.
To make better buildings, you develop masonry, which helps making buildings sturdier, granting +3 to infrastructure rolls.
When you heard that Kugelland might have a plague, the most logical course of action was to visit the infected cities to see for yourself. Unfortunately, you got infected, and you now also have the Kugelland plague. The people are in panic, decreasing stability and happiness.
Also, you federated with Phoenicia, yay! You get to share all of your technology and gain one extra global action each.

Result: 20/20! -7 +5 = 18/20, 16/20 -8 +3 = 11/20, 18/20 +4 = 20/20!, 16/20 +6 = 20/20!, 7/20 +6 = 13/20
Your secret is a success.
To limit contagion, you build hospitals, which help reduce the number of deaths to -3.
You improve your tools by casting them out of iron, increasing food production, increasing your population.
Your research on the cure continues. Thanks to the Britannian microscopes, you’re almost there!
The plague has been going on for quite some time, decreasing people’s happiness.
Also, you were visited by the Hollow Sandpeople, who unfortunately got infected as well.
You were also visited by the people of Tarkahmehd, who gifted you the blueprints to build science hubs, which grant +3 to research rolls, and hospitals, which grant -2 to the death roll.
The people of Etxe also visited you, giving you soap, which grants -2 to the death roll, and medicine, which grants -1 to the death roll.
I also decided that Roman Concrete grants +4 to infrastructure rolls.
Death roll: 18/20 -4 = 14/20
Fourteen people have succumbed to the plague.

Result: 7/20 +8 = 15/20
Your first order of business is to expand yourselves, and to do so, you had to take your neighbour’s land. Your warriors donned their shields and swords and went on their conquest. Their target was the Aitor civilization. You attacked one of their villages, Pamplona, and conquered it with ease. However, this is sure to stir up some trouble. The village is now yours to claim. You lost 5 people in the battle.
Also, you were visited by the Britannians, who were a little off put by your aggressive nature.
