Eternal City 950

so lazy... Let's see if I can rack up the motivation to actually write the history...

Another 100 years, and the world seems to be falling apart, or at least in some areas.

In Britain, the last of the Pagan Celtic tribes, the Picti, have finally converted to Christianity. Unfortunately, the Germanic-Pagan Nautae under Evarrid have landed in northern Caledonia, and Evarrid looks to found his own kingdom. In the Nautae homeland, kingdoms of all sorts are emerging: The Sueds, the Rans, the Rugs, all creating their own kingdoms and expanding. But it was only thanks to the Nautae that the Romans have come into contact with the Finni, Balti, and Aesyli, people that live beyond even the Nautae and Aerri.

Further south, in Slavia, the Magars invaded the land of the Aerri, setting up a Magar kingdom north of the Carpathians, and the Vends, the 'Barbarous Kingdom,' are expanding more and more. Trying to flee from the Magars and Vends, the Franci and Checi invade into the Roman Empire.

The Croati themselves are invading Padia not just for the gold and glory, but their is a new power in the Pannonian basin: The Bulgari have invaded and united with the Avars, creating an Avari-Bulgari Kingdom (sometimes called Abulgaria). And filling the void left by the Magari and Bulgari are the Pesenegi and Kumani. When will the endless train of Eastern Huns finally end? When will they finally leave Europe alone?

In Marcomannia, the Romans have recognized the Marco-Macedonian King as the Eastern Roman Emperor, the first time they've recognized an Eastern Emperor in 500 years. In Arabia, the Muslim Kingdoms are falling ever faster, as the Caliphs can't hold on to power. As such, a new empire is born, and another is reborn: Enter the Glorious Empire of Armenia and the Return of the Persian Empire. Hopefully, the Most Christian States of Asia and Armenia can hold the line against the Muslims.

Raids are becoming ever more present into the Roman Empire. The Nautae have been more and more frequently been attacking the coasts of Gallia and Hispania, while the Mauretanians have been raiding southern Italy and the Mediterranean, and have even taken Sardinia. Because of the attacks on all sides, the Roman Capital had to be moved to Aquae Sextiae. The Caesars are becoming more and more independent of the Augustus and have even forced the Augustus to give up his role as Caesar of Italia.
