Few thrones are ever truly secure, and the nature of monarchy - either hereditary or elected - meant that there were always alternative candidates for kingship waiting in the wings. Whilst most pretenders were either disaffected siblings or cousins with strong claims of their own, others were simply pawns through whom more ambitious men of lesser blood could rule. In any case, a pretender at the head of an army and with the support of foreign princes was always a serious threat - no matter the validity of their claim.Actions

First used by the Chinese, limited numbers of gunpowder weapons had been in use in European armies since the mid-1300s, though it would be another century until they were commonplace and began to decide the outcome of battles such as at Castillon in 1453. In search of higher salaries further afield, a number of European artificers offered their services to Muslim rulers such as the Timurid emir Tamerlane and the Mamluk sultan Qutuz. In 1453, having first been turned away by the Byzantine emperor, the Hungarian artificer Orban was employed by the Ottoman sultan Mehmed II to build dozens of different-sized cannons in order to breach the famed walls of Constantinople. Prior to his success in this mission, Orban himself is supposed to have boasted to Mehmed that his largest cannon could 'smash the walls of Babylon itself.'Actions

Description
Piracy has been prevalent across North Africa since at least the days of the Phoenicians, with the area being named the Barbary coast for the ancient Berbers indigenous to the region. Barbary pirates would launch attacks from safe ports along the coast of Morocco and Tlemcen, usually focused on raiding coastal towns for gold, cattle and slaves, but also launching larger fleets of corsairs to intercept - and if possible, commandeer - both merchant and war ships. Though some raids were carried out much further afield (as far as Holland and Iceland) they were mostly confined to the Mediterranean, with the most lucrative prizes being capturing treasure ships and abducting people to sell as slaves in Venice, Genoa and Constantinople.Actions

One route into power was to marry into poor but well titled noble families. The other was to pry open positions in government circles.Actions

Description
Boyars were the highest-ranking feudal class of Slavic and Vlach society, second only to the ruling princes. As with knights in Western Europe, Boyars enjoyed a certain rank and privilege, owned land and titles, and led armies in the service of their liege. The feudal system as it related to Boyars in Eastern Europe was very much decentralized, with each Boyar having a personal 'contract' of sorts with his liege, and it was only with the authoritarian policies of Ivan III that the Boyars began to lose influence, and by the reign of his grandson Ivan IV they had largely been marginalized as a governing class.Actions

Description
Cartography is an artform as old as the very concept of the map itself, and with the evolution of map-making skills came new tools and technologies to better achieve more precise maps. In order to plot courses and measure distances more accurately, improvements to compasses, cross staffs and telescopes were made over time, which often led to existing maps being amended or redrawn. In the mid-18th century, Louis XV of France was surprised to learn from royal cartographers that his kingdom was actually much smaller than had previously been assumed. Despite this, Louis felt that France - L'Hexagone - had already reached its natural borders, and it was better to cultivate its prosperity rather than make it larger.Actions

Description
The Children's Crusade was a failed popular crusade to reconquer the Kingdom of Jerusalem in the early 1200s. Though it never received official papal sanction and ultimately never materialized in any serious form, the idea of good Christians - including children - spontaneously marching to the Holy Land in order to peacefully convert the Muslim occupiers had long been viewed with a degree of interest, with many believing the non-violent naivety of such a goal through a child's innocence to be a sincere and devout act of God. Whether such a 'crusade' ever took place is a matter of debate, and it is likely that the idea is the result of overlapping confused accounts from the period, but what if the children began marching once again?Actions

Description
The Cossacks' exact roots are steeped in mystery, though it is generally believed they were a Turkic people descended from the Cumans who once roamed the Steppe prior to the arrival of the Tatars. Over the centuries, they mixed with the various Ruthenian (and possibly Vlach) peoples of Lithuania and southern Russia, eventually expanding their influence into the Wild Fields of Ukraine. Though there were multiple Cossack groups across Eurasia, the two most important divisions were those in Ukraine, who aligned themselves with the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and later formed the quasi-independent Zaporozhian Hetmanate, and those in Russia, who were largely assimilated into the Tsar's army and defended against incursions from the Nogais and Tatars. Cossacks practiced a proto-democratic form of elective government and regularly revolted against what they perceived as autocratic rule in both Poland-Lithuania and Russia. Their most famous rebellion was led by the Don Cossack Pugachev in 1773, who claimed to be the recently-murdered Tsar Peter III and wished to overturn Empress Catherine's increasingly oppressive policies and abolish serfdom. In the end, Pugachev's rebellion failed after he was betrayed by his own men.Actions

Description
The Renaissance saw the advent of international finance and the rise of the great banking families of Italy and the Low Countries. In turn, as old feudal entities emerged into something resembling modern nation-states, loans were agreed and paid. Ultimately, payments were generally made for the simple reason that refusal meant lenders were far less likely to agree to loans in future, which in turn limited a ruler's ability to fund their projects and expand the state.Actions

Description
The Industrial Revolution had profound and far-reaching effects on society, economics and culture. It ushered in an era of unprecedented technological advancements and economic growth, leading to increased industrialization and urbanization. Factories and mechanized production processes transformed work and created a new working class, while innovations in transportation, such as the steam engine and railways, revolutionized trade and communication. However, these changes also brought challenges, including harsh working conditions, child labor, and social inequalities. The Industrial Revolution reshaped the family structure, with more people working outside the home, and had significant impacts on the environment due to increased pollution and resource extraction. It ultimately laid the foundation for the modern industrial societies we see today.Actions

Description
Flower Wars were ritual wars fought between the Mesoamerican states of Central America during the 15th and 16th centuries. Far more about pride than plunder, the aim of a flower war was not to conquer a neighbouring state but to force them into submission and clearly show regional hegemony. During flower wars, opposing armies of selected champions would meet at a pre-determined location and engage in battle according to a previously agreed set of rules. The ideal result would be the smaller, more elite army defeating the larger, weaker army. Ranged weapons were frowned upon, with the preferred method of combat being engaging the enemy at short range with specialist melee weapons (such as the macuahuitl) which required greater skill to use.Actions

Conditions
- Must be allowed to make royal marriages
Description
One of the core fundamentals of the feudal system was the commonly-held understanding that should the ruling dynasty die out, the most senior cadet branch would then inherit the realm. Disagreements over such legalities often led to civil wars, or even major conflicts such as the Hundred Years' War (1337-1453) and War of Spanish Succession (1701-1715), in which two branches of the same family went to war over competing claims. In turn, whilst the extinction of a junior line often weakened the aristocracy and strengthened the monarch's immediate position, it meant that an alternative source of legitimate heirs had been lost, and this was often bad news for the long-term survival of the dynasty.Actions

Description
Enslaved across the Balkans and Caucasus, the Mamluks were a largely Christian warrior class forced into the service of various Muslim lords in Egypt and the Levant. In the early 13th century two different groups of Mamluks converted to Islam and seized power in Cairo and Delhi, ushering in the age of the Mamluks. Though the regime in Delhi was overthrown in 1290, the Mamluks held on in Cairo until the Ottoman conquest of Egypt in 1517. Despite the loss of their independence, the Mamluks continued to exist as a military and social caste within Ottoman Egypt and essentially ruled the province as viceroys for the next two centuries. Following the Mamluks' last revolt in 1789, the Ottoman governor Muhammad Ali purged them and dismantled their socio-political networks.Actions

The Old Swiss Confederacy was established in 1291 with the signing of the Federal Charter following the death of King Rudolf I of Germany. The founding cantons were Uri, Schwyz and Unterwalden, with Lucerne, Zürich and Bern quickly opting to join. Following several victories over invading Habsburg armies, the conquest of Glarus and Zug led to their incorporation as the seventh and eighth cantons. These were subsequently known as the Acht Orte ('Old Eight') and formed the core of the Confederacy until 1481, when Fribourg and Solothurn were admitted. The final three cantons to join were Basel, Schaffhausen and Appenzell during the early 16th century, at which point the Swiss defeat at the Battle of Marignano halted further expansion until the Confederacy's conquest by the armies of Revolutionary France in 1798.Actions

Description
From its inception the Roman Catholic Church hosted a number of ecumenical councils in which Church doctrine and administration were agreed upon, as well as the Church's unified response to the pressing matters of the day. The first council called was Nicaea (325) in order to debate the Arian heresy, and later pivotal councils included Constance (1414-1418) - in which the Western Schism was ended with the election of Pope Martin V - and Trent (1545-1563) - in which the Counter-Reformation began in earnest. At each council, papal legates and noted lawyers and diplomats from across Europe were called on as representatives of their respective states. Though most chose to attend, some chose not to for domestic political reasons.Actions

Description
Among the world's oldest faiths, Jainism - along with Buddhism - was one of the Sramana traditions which once rivalled the ancient Vedic religions of India. Though once commonplace throughout the subcontinent, Jainism often vied for influence with Buddhism throughout the Middle Ages, and by the 15th century had lost ground to both Islam in its original heartlands of Gujarat and the Indus Valley, and Hinduism across much of the Deccan Plateau. As the Jain population dwindled its influence at the courts of the maharajas waned, and its final cultural bastion became Maharashtra in Western India. By 1500 the great Jain temple at Gurjiwada (near Goa) had fallen into disrepair, and though Jainism continued to exist in isolated pockets it had long ceased to be a majority faith anywhere. The last gasp of Jainism as a religion of any influence occurred during the 16th century, when successive Mughal emperors employed Jains as court advisors, bankers and bureaucrats - though this in turn fueled resentment at their influence over state policy, which led to increased persecution, destruction of Jain shrines and temples, and ultimately their expulsion from court.Actions

The alms of St. Peter, or Peter's Pence, were the donations collected throughout England and sent to the Holy See in order to fund the Vatican and the Catholic clergy in England and elsewhere. First recorded in England in 1031, similar networks of papal collections were quickly established in other parts of Europe, and by the time of the Reformation regular streams of income flowed from across Europe straight to the Vatican's coffers.Actions

Description
Columbus' discovery of the Americas in 1492 heralded an age of exploration and colonization, and by the time of the Reformation half a century later many persecuted religious groups were beginning to make a better life for themselves among the New World colonies established by the European powers. These pilgrims ranged from Puritans and Anabaptists to Jews and Jesuits. Perhaps the most famous of these voyages was that of the English ship Mayflower, which left Portsmouth for Massachusetts in 1620 and whose passengers, the Pilgrim Fathers, founded the Plymouth Colony.Actions

Description
Piracy in the West Indies is almost as old as the colonial empires that existed there. By the mid-16th century, Spanish treasure fleets were being attacked by English privateers (pirates in service of the Crown) on a regular basis, a practice that would continue for another century and bring the two sides to the brink of war on several occasions. Many famous pirates made names for themselves as buccaneers, attacking indiscriminately any ships they saw and hoarding stolen booty on smaller islands or coves they controlled, or even 'pirate fortresses' such as Tortuga.Actions

Description
Piracy in the East Indies dates back to ancient times and was a major issue for thalassocracies such as Majapahit, Brunei and Ternate long before the European colonial empires began making inroads into the region from the 16th century. The maritime trade routes between Java, Sumatra, Malaya and up through the South China Sea towards the Khmer and Ming empires were so extraordinarily lucrative that the sea lanes were rife with pirates for most of the year. Though smaller raids continued, it was not until the powerful Dutch and Portuguese fleets arrived in the 17th century that the larger pirate networks were finally destroyed.Actions

During the Middle Ages, and in particular following the Black Death of the mid-14th century, Europe saw a gradual breakdown of law and order in rural areas. One such example of this was the era of the robber barons, low-level feudal landowners who overtaxed and extorted their tenants because they enjoyed the protection of their feudal superior. Whilst some limited their exploits to blackmail or illegal tolls, many robber barons openly resorted to banditry, kidnapping and ransom demands.Actions

Description
The ancient Khmer Empire had been a bastion of Hindu culture for centuries, but by the mid-14th century its long decline had set in. The exact reasons for such stagnation are disputed, but the conversion to Theravada Buddhism and the abandonment of Sanskrit for the Khmer vernacular as the language of the court and clergy are often cited as possible catalysts. The succession of Trasak Paem sometime around 1340 marks the end of the era of the Devarajas ('demi-gods') and therefore the erection of great temples dedicated to the Hindu gods, which in turn marks the end of easily dateable monuments with which to identify specific Khmer kings.Actions

It did not leave marks on the body, and many who survived initial contact with the illness would later die after having been reinfected.

Description
The mysterious 'sweating sickness' first struck England in the summer of 1485, with subsequent waves hitting England, Ireland and the Low Countries intermittently throughout the 16th century. Unlike the more deadly bubonic plague, the 'sudor anglicus' tended to target young and middle-aged adults, bypassing children and the elderly. It did not leave marks on the body, and many who survived initial contact with the illness would later die after having been reinfected. Though presumed to have been a form of the hantavirus, its exact form remains unknown - following a last unverified outbreak documented in 1644, the 'English sweat' seems to have disappeared altogether.Actions

Description
Formed in the late 9th century from warriors of the Kievan Rus', the Varangian Guard was an elite standing army based in Constantinople and sworn to protect the Byzantine Emperor. Though recruited from across much of Europe, the bulk of the Guard comprised men from Scandinavia and, particularly following the Norman Conquest, England. The origins of the Guard lie in the intricate politics of the Byzantine Empire, in which coups and counter-coups were common, and whose army commanders were themselves often candidates to be elected emperor and thus unreliable as heads of imperial security. The Norsemen and Saxons who made up much of the Guard were thought more loyal, and whose personal oaths to the Emperor were taken seriously - so long as they were paid.Actions

Description
Established in the late 14th century during the wars between the Kalmar Union and the Hanseatic League, the Victual Brothers were a guild of German pirates comprising mercenaries, privateers and disaffected North German nobility. From their fortress at Visby on Gotland, they operated throughout the Baltic and North Sea, striking as far as Frisia in the south and the Gulf of Bothnia in the north. Though originally pirates, they later began to take on more political characteristics, fighting for the rights of fellow merchants and common sailors, and were at times employed as privateers by rulers in competition with the Hansa. Weakened following their expulsion from Gotland in 1398, the Victual Brothers had been wiped out by the 1450s.Actions
