Chain-mail was first recorded in 300 BC. By Babylonians. Historians believe that this was based off of Scale armor.
@Viking Socrates Moscow dispatches an urgent plea for aid to Poznan in light of the aggressive movements of the Scythia.
Well then I might declare war on them, or sent troops to Sparta. They have the ability to have a military again right? Give me more details How goes the war, how many troops do you have and how about the people we sent you before the war?
That can't be Armenia. It's no where near Armenia. Even if it spawned in an extreme top left corner of Armenia and only went North West it would not be Armenia.
Soon more people revolt, the senate in a rage, now 40 roman legions revolt, including the ones at the spartan settlement, Rome soon will turn into a bloodbath.
Looking at present day Armenia, it is south Causcasus. Or do you want me to make a stupid reason here?
I said scaled armor, yes? Scaled armor has been around since the writing of Shi Jing in the 10th to 7th century BC. The poems and songs within describe horse scale armor. Scythians also made use of scaled armor, as evident from military graves.
The current colonization patterns of Scythia make it clear that they mean to strike against our peaceful state.
@darthdj31 Since it appears you are doing the map, I would like to say this will the current trend of my two nations for a while Poznan will conquer the Baltic until it reaches St petersburg/Leningrad Sweden will conquer Norway So whenever you do a map update this will be what I'll be doing. So you want to strike first? On the pretext that someone might attack first, not very peaceful are you?
Soon the senate is divided in half, a new group call them selfs the "Spartan-Roman People of Rome" the lands are now divided again, the roman naval base fall to the SRPR so does the roman colony in Africa, but this time, the city of Rome is surrounded by enemies. The 2nd roman civil war has started.*You may support one side by providing soldiers, the SRPR reason of winning: To stop all aggression towards spartans and all people. the Rome senate: To make Rome proud and glorious.*
OOC: ^ Gee, Rome is a pretty controversial place to live. How many civil wars have they had since they started?
Poznan already had 15,000 troops in Rome, they can support whoever they wish. However they were pro-spartan when they arrived.
