I am honestly conflicted, both Coyotl and Ocelomeh donāt seem reliable, plus the Coyotls have catapults which is very bad. But I guess the cycle of lying has to continue for now 
Action I: [Stop the trade route with the Coyotls] While this action seems rather hostile, Montezuma tried to explain to the KotC (King of the Coyotls) that both Mexica and Coyotl must stop trading for now, as the enemy may harass the trade routes and cause instability. The trade can, of course, continue once we destroy the threat outside.
Action II: [Research/create bowmen] Montezuma, alone and worried stared deeply into the stars looking for answers to his troublesā¦ And then magically an answer came to him - those ācatapultā things seem flammable. In fact the whole city of Tlacopan seems flammable! If only there was a way to throw something towards the city and start a fireā¦ In fact if only there was a way to just throw something sharp towards the city from safe distanceā¦ And then a second answer came to Montezuma - [insert bow and arrow physics here]. Montezuma was pleased with his ideas, but for a moment he stopped and asked himself if that was possible. But then he remembered that the Coyotls, too, have archers. So it wasnāt something that only the Gods could achieve. Of course the real question remainsā¦ Can the arrows start making things on fireā¦?
Action III: [Research gunpowder]/(If it is too early for gunpowderā¦) [Research primitive catapults]
Action IV: [Search for more civilizations/potential allies]
Action V: [Create new job] (still not sure if thatās an action, lol) Montezuma, by seeing how the Coyotls train his people, wondered if his people can start training each other for different stuffs. And thus the job of the āScholarā was created and 50 Mexicans became scholars./(if creating a job isnāt an action) [Create bronze weapons] The scholars had the genial idea of melting the bronze into a little deadlier shape (swords and spears).
my votes this round are pmed.
action 1: go meet etxe
action 2: create some laws
new population becomes builders, hunters and scientists
with the extra person becoming a scientist
Townsville is now called Uharte, and straddles the location of our worldās Marseille and the nearby Frioul islands.
Religion
The religion of Etxe is called Iragarmen. It is unusual in that it is silent on the subject of deities, although it is easily mixed with other traditions that do feature deities, and does assert the existence of some sort of greater beings. The religion centers around the concept that reality as we know it is a small slice or island within a much greater reality that canāt normally be understood by humans.
Worship by the followers of Iragarmen typically takes the form of meditation on short passages known as egia, which are recited or written on holy cylinders or cone sections called obos that are rolled along the ground. These egia are said to have been provided by the mythological enlightened ones of the past who learned of the greater reality, and to reveal truths about it. While a few are straightforward, most are nonsensical (at least to the unenlightened).
Iragarmen says that a person is a part of a greater being that is passing through our false reality. When it enters, a person is born, and when they die that part of the greater being has continued out into the greater reality. Most followers believe that a different part of the same greater being will eventually pass through again, but there is a minority who say the greater reality is so large that never happens. The goal of the followers of the faith is to understand and connect with their greater selves and the greater reality, to end all the struggles of their life.
Politics
The government of Etxe is a chaotic oligarchy, with both hereditary temporal leaders and charismatic spiritual wise men wielding considerable influence. Maybe someday a more formal system will be established to cut down on the infighting.
To simplify things, Iāve combined healer and scribe, as well as farmer and goatherd. Thereās also only one species now. Hereās a new CSV population breakdown:
CSV
,Farmer,Fisherman,Trader,Scholar,Soldier
Berpizte,85,25,50,10,30
Uharte,40,50,0,6,15
Actions: The traders, 5 scholars and 10 soldiers from Berpizte trade shields with Hellenes for mathematics. The remaining citizens there develop evangelism. The people of Uharte build port facilities.
Actually, Iāll trade camouflage with Hellenes for the math.
Story
Lots of trading is happening between the Golden League as the Bananarama desperately try to escape their fate. In other news, the Mexicans are preparing for war and are gathering as many allies as they can.

Result: 11/20 +2 = 13/20, 19/20
You heard rumours about the collapse of Laestrygonia, which sounded unbelievable, so you had to go investigate yourself. You sent a crew to explore the coast, where you met the remains of Laestrygonia, the human civilization of Exte. They looked a lot less brutish and more peaceful, and were pleasant to interact with. You got along well thanks to your diplomatic nature.
There was a set of unspoken rules among humans in general, such as basic morals, like how killing and stealing is wrong, but Tekis standardised these rules into laws that every citizen must follow. These laws help reduce the crime rate.
Also, you were visited by the Persian Empire. They are very militaristic and want to become the most powerful empire there is. They offer you to join them and ,in exchange for their protection, they will collect taxes and goods, as well as all your new technology. They give you 2 turns to think about it.
You were also visited by the Hollow Sandpeople. They gave you wheels in exchange for your bronze tools.

Result: 15/20 -9 +3 = 9/20, 11/20 -9 +9 = 11/20, 16/20 -5 +3 = 14/20, 18/20 -9 +4 = 13/20, 20/20! -8 +3 = 15/20, 12/20 -8 +10 = 14/20, 17/20 -9 +3 = 11/20
Your builders tried to construct an academy, but they lacked the resources to do so at the time.
Seeing the success of the ballista, you ordered your inventors to try and make a version soldiers could use. They make gastraphetes, which are more powerful than bows, but take a bit more time to reload. Nevertheless, they grant +3 to combat rolls.
Unhappy with the result, your men continue to improve the temple. They furnish it with tapestry and murals depicting religious scenes. In the centre floor, there is a mosaic with a top-down view of the entire city, with more room for it to be updated and expanded upon. The temple is now intricate and elegant enough to be considered a landmark! Landmarks are useful because they are a source of great prestige and wealth, used for tourism and pilgrimage. The income generated from this landmark increases your population.
You send a crew by boat to explore the nation that was once plagued by disease. When they arrived, they were greeted by soldiers patrolling the area, who escorted them to the nearest village. There, they presented themselves to the Britannians, who were happy to have visitors, although they were a little weary of your war-centred nature.
(I have to admit, I am a little confused by this action, since a shipwright is a job, but it was too late to ask you to clarify, so I just went along with it. Please tell me if you want to change it to something else, Iāll do so for free) Launching a boat in the water can be difficult, especially if itās big. Thatās why you built a slipway in your dock, which helps make boat travel easier, giving +3 to sailing rolls.
Your wooden shields definitely needed an upgrade, ever since you had access to ironsmithing, so you forged roman scutums out of iron, which are a lot stronger. You also made iron targes, which you pair your pikemen with. Iron shields grant +4 to combat rolls.
The rest of the Cilisians manage fields for farming, increasing your food production and population.
Also, you were visited by the people of Exte, who came to trade. They gave you their camouflaging techniques for your knowledge of mathematics. Camouflage grants -3 to invasion rolls to your enemies or grants you +3 to ambush rolls.
I forgot to add that docks add +2 to sailing rolls.

You send your settlers to establish the village of Liverpool, which makes more room for people to move in, increasing your population and granting an extra global action.
Your hunters finally capture wolves, which will take 2 turns to domesticate (because of time frames) before they can become proper hunting dogs.
It seems that Britannians really donāt like school. No matter how hard you push it, people refuse to send their kids over. You know what they say: If at first you donāt succeed, try, try again.
Your scientists come up with a theory about how the world around them works. They establish the theory of atomism, or how matter is composed of finitely tiny particles, too small for the eye to perceive, which can connect with each other in different combinations to form different materials. Although flawed, this theory is close enough to reality and cannot be disproven due to limited technology, so it helps with tech research, granting +2 in that field.
Your engineers have gotten good at glassblowing, being able to make lenses out of it, which they use to make microscopes. With these wondrous new machines, the secrets of the world of the small can finally be attained. These grant +2 to research rolls in the scientific field.
Basic mathematics was an excellent way to solve problems in everyday life, but life isnāt always full of integers. You revised your current mathematics system to include numbers in between integers, which help with precision, granting +2 instead of +1 to research rolls.
Also, you were visited by the Hellenes. They are a militaristic nation, so they might seem a little pushy at times, but you still greeted them.
You can now ride horses.

You decide to try to build up your relations again, so you start with your nearest partner, the Hellenes. They were surprised when you arrived under a new name and new face. Nonetheless, they traded with you, offering you their knowledge of mathematics for your camouflage. It was a pleasant exchange, and the Hellenes were glad to know you were OK and that you were now back on track.
Iragarmen is held in very high importance in Etxeās society, so preaching it was definitely encouraged. You would send missionaries to different local villages to try and persuade the people to join your faith. Their pitch was pretty convincing for a lot of people, who would convert and then move into your villages. This increases your population.
The people of Uharte live near the shores of the Mediterranean, so boats are a very important part of daily routine, from fishing to transporting goods. Docking boats is normally tough without proper infrastructure, as well as unloading merchandise, so when you built a port to accommodate the boats, it helped a lot. Ports are great shipyards, granting guaranteed success for ship-related rolls, as well as granting +2 to sailing rolls. The easier unloading of merchandise also increases your population.
Also, you were visited by the Phoenicians. They were obviously shook when they heard the tragic tale of your fractured nation, but they were glad that you were safe and sound.

Fearing for your life, you send a boat on an expedition to try and take over a nation. They find the Muppans in Spain, who were more spiritual and were very easy to conquer. You butchered their village and emerged victorious with no casualties, even managing to capture 15 prisoners who join your ranks. Their village is now yours to claim.
Back at Musa, while the Mongols were away, you decided to attack, bombarding them with artillery from your walls and charging with all of your villagers, hoping to drive the invader away. Your surprise attack gave you a tactical advantage, but your small units compared to the huge Mongolain army was of no match. You managed to shoot down a few of them and suffered few losses, totaling in 13 deaths out of 22 for you and 38 deaths for the Mongols. This can be considered a small victory, but your people are now worried that they have now angered the Mongols and that they will show no mercy, reducing your stability.
You decide to attack and destroy the Farenit. Although they had grown larger since the last time you visited them, they were still fairly weak in comparison to all of your combat technology, so you easily outmatched them, with only 2 casualties. 17 captured prisoners decided to join you, while the village is now yours to claim.
The flood now over, the Mongols go back to besieging you, preventing you from leaving the capital.

You send your people on an expedition to build a new village. They make it with a lot more space in mind, so even more people can move in. Hooray! Youāve reached the village cap. To increase the cap, your villages must become cities, which happens when they reach 500 population.
Your traders go to Kugelland to trade some of the bountiful resources they have acquired from the meteor to their less fortunate partners. They are eternally grateful, making you now allies.
Watchtowers would have been an excellent way to scout the area to ward off invaders, had it not been for the fact that you built your towers higher than the surrounding trees, which made them act like a beacon, revealing the location of your villages. Before you could finish constructing them, you were raided by bandits, who set fire to them and plundered your village at night, stealing your resources and killing your people from the fire spread. You lost 120 people to these raids.
To make research easier, you decided to construct a building so that all the scientists and philosophers may congregate and spread their ideas, which helps in tech research, granting +3 to them.
Your dirt roads can wash away with the rain, so you decide to upgrade them by making pathways out of stone bricks, which degrade a lot less and grant +3 to infrastructure rolls or +4 to trade rolls if you establish a trade route.

Result: 19/20 -7 = 12/20, 20/20! -7 +6 = 19/20, 19/20 -7 +6 = 18/20, 17/20 -7 +2 = 12/20, 20/20! -7 +6 = 19/20 (Wow, youāre a high roller haha)
Montezuma was troubled with the task offered by the Ocelomeh, but he needed all the help he could get if he wanted to take down the Coyotl. He spent many days in his think tent scheming the best way to present the news, and he came up with the perfect excuse. He told the King of Coyotl that he must sever the trade route to protect both nations, since a trade route is the most vulnerable to raids. The king agreed and held no grudge against Montezuma. Task updated: Now you must set up a trade route with the Ocelomeh.
A weapon that sets things on fire from a distance would be very valuable to take down those catapults near the gate, so it became a priority to try and develop a potential weapon. Flaming arrows were what the people came up with, by igniting an arrow with the tip covered in cloth and fat, which can be sent flying from a bow and burn whatever it lands on. Flaming arrows with basic bows grant +1 to combat rolls or +2 if theyāre against infrastructure.
Before you can build siege weapons, you have to have good knowledge on mathematics, so that you can predict trajectories. Mathematics also helps with tech research, granting +1 to those rolls.
You send your scouts on a mission to find another civilization. This time, exploring South, they find the Nahuatl. These people are currently going through a bit of a drought and would be eternally grateful if you could gift them some of your reserves so they can survive. In exchange, they promise to become your ally. You have 2 turns before they starve and collapse.
Assigning jobs is free, so you forged your weapons into more powerful bronze. Bronze weapons grant +3 to combat rolls.

Actions: [Global] Trade with Kugelland, [Global] Sovereignty, [Global] Better houses, [Global] Roads
Result: 13/20 +5 = 18/20, 13/20, 18/20, 12/20
You send a trading caravan over to Kugelland to give them iron and furnaces. In exchange, they gave you the Kongming lanterns. They are very happy with the transaction and you are now on good terms.
To combat the instability that comes with spreading yourself over many villages, you decide to grant sovereignty over them, so that they may function without you. The drawback is that if they are unhappy they may splinter and form their own nation, so you have to keep your villages happy.
The Mongol empire is prosperous and the living conditions should reflect that. You upgrade your houses by making them out of wood and stone, making cottages, which can fit more people, increasing your population.
To make paths between different villages, you decide to make dirt roads, which help when building infrastructure, granting +2 to infrastructure rolls, or +3 to trade rolls if you established a trade route.
Also, you were attacked by the Bananarama. While your army was camped West because of the flood, they used that occasion to stage a surprise attack and catch you off guard. You fought them back thanks to your superior army, but you still suffered 38 casualties, while the Bananarama suffered 13. You managed to push them back to Musa Sapientum Fixa, which you began to siege again. You have 6 turns before your army starts to starve.

Kugelland
Leader: Adalald
Actions: [30 (researchers, farmers)] Tame spiders, [48] Watchtower, [10] Farm, [15] Fertilizer, [10] Guard
Result: 19/20 -7 +2 = 14/20, 15/20 -5 = 10/20, 19/20 -8 = 11/20, 17/20 -8 +2 = 11/20, 20/20! -8 = 12/20
You were always fascinated by the spiderās intricate web and how it can make such delicate but powerful traps that can stop insects midair. You decided to capture spiders to try and get your hands on your own silk. In this parallel universe, spider silk is easier to farm and obtain by raising spiders, which you start doing. You now have access to silk! Now if only you had a way to weave itā¦
Your people built watchtowers, but they were of poor quality and collapsed when no one was around.
It seems the problem really was Stadburg, since there was no problem managing farms in Zweibach. This increase in food production increases your population.
This time, while repurposing the pig droppings, your farmers were extra careful, and it worked wonderfully! Fertilizer increased food yieldings, which increased your population.
Your guards do another round, resetting the timer.
Also, you were visited by the people of Tarkahmehd. They came with the sole purpose of delivering excess resources to you, with nothing in return, increasing your population and relations.
You were also visited by the Mongols, who came bearing the gift of furnaces and iron. You gave them your Kongming lanterns in exchange. This pleasant surprise increased your relations with them.
You now have enough population to become a civilization.

- All Peers must establish a Royal Federation (see details below).
- All Farmers try to establish a permanent farm (see details below)!
- All Mathematicians research on Mathematics N (Numeral characters).
- All Engineers research on Vehicles N (Wheel).
Royal Federation
The King will now have a constitutional role, which means that a new Constitution will be made to limit his power. There will be three provinces, and three Lords will rule each of them. A mayor will rule each village. The King will share his power with the Lords and Mayors, even though he will still have more power on the Federal level. Another detail: each province is divided into regions. Regions are only for administrative purposes and do not possess a capital. Here are the provinces, regions & cities/villages.
Sussex
London
Londinium
The Capital City of Britannia and Sussex.
Wessex
South Wessex
Winchester
The Capital City of Wessex.
Norshire
West Norshire
Liverpool
The Capital City of Norshire.
Permanent Farms
Permanent farms are intended to produce crops every round. The only disadvantage is that it needs at least one group of farmers to maintain its crop production. If there is less than a group of farmers or none, then it will be considered inactive until thereās a new group of farmers for the upkeep.

Okay, I have to do something stupid now, as my time is running out. I hope it works:D Also, the āFind a civ questā should be 1 turn now, not 2, but with my plan this shouldnāt be a problem>:)
Action I: [Inform the KotC about the existence of the Ocelomeh.]
Action II: [We offer to the KotC to help him] Montezumaās plotted a scheme. He offered to Kaajal (yes, thatās the name of the KotC now:D Of course you can change it if you want) to help him in his conquest against those ābrutesā in hopes that can bring the two nations together. He explains that his army will follow proudly behind and nothing will be demanded in exchange (except of course the absolute and utter destruction that will followā¦).
Action III: [Send some supplies to Nahuatl] (Finish Quest)
Action IV: [Recruit around ~100 archers from Nahuatl]
Action V: [Research Catapults] (might come in handy soon) (I also use my scholars for that, because theyāre smart)
Action VI (That one is really so risky, Montezuma has lost his mind:D): [Send a messager to Ocelomeh] Montezuma sent a messager during the night to the city of Ocelomeh. The messager had to warn the King of the mighty nation to prepare all his defenses, because a big army is coming towards him. The messager was ordered to stay in Ocelomeh and await Montezuma to pick him up.
Action VII (yes, we will finish with an odd number today:( ): [Research shields]
