draw a diagonal line from trebizond to where Greek anatolia is in the south

perfect

Wait

Nigga

This is Byzantium not Rome

You forgot southern italy

They don't hold that

@Hotzendorf

Here

Is what I did better?

noone in that region ever goes west of egypt

Wot

No u

those maps of empires from that area never take the region just west of egypt, they take the coast but thats it

why control wasteland

is wastland? i thought it had a great deal of copper

Why do you want sand?

to make glass

wrong kind of sand

But there’s natives

And they’re barbarians

you can still make glass just not high quality

glass of useless quality is not really glass

Still glass

is just a shiny rock

just useless glass

glass is glass becuase of how it can be shaped and used

IIRC the Carthaginians had a hand in perfecting "clear" glass, so prior to that point in time "un"clear glass was indeed useful glass.....for whatever

to say what that sand makes is glass is to say the same of quartz or cinnabar

Useless glass helped connect electro magnatism
