Byzantium also has a Dominion in Thailand and Egypt which has a strong presence in Indochina.(Planned Dominion for Central Asia and East Europe)
Position in Relation to Other Nations
Directly north of Constantinople is Bulgaria, followed shortly by Romania. To the east is the Islamic_State, followed by Georgia and Greater-Armenia. Towards the south-east is Judah. In the direct west is Albania, followed by Italia. Finally, Austria-Hungary is the farthest north-west.

The Tetrarchy
(October 25 2018 - November 9 2018)
Western Rebellion
After an attempt to sow dissent amongst the Eastern Monarchy is discovered, Marcellus Caesar is stripped of his title on accounts of treason. The former Caesar of the West declared himself in rebellion and asserted sovereignty over Rome. After refusing to comply with the return of the town, he was declared an enemy of the state and purged from the discord, along with many of his supporters.
Acquisition of Horses
After some experimentation with the MCMMO plugin's Taming skill, CorruptedGreed, mayor of Philippopolis, spawned some in and breeded them. This supplied the capital, Constantinople, with its first horses.
Italia Recognized as The New Western Empire
When SirJTaylor took Rome for himself at the very start of Terra Nova and refused to give it to the rightful Augustus in the West: Dinogod, the establishment of the Western Roman Empire came to a sudden halt. Italia to the north however, had begun to slowly creep further southwards over the coming days with the establishment of new towns. Eventually seeing the situation in the west as hopeless, Florene reached an agreement with the Italians, recognizing them as the Roman Empire in the west, thus allowing her to focus on matters in the east.

Mercenary Work Outlawed
Following the Christmas Conflict, mercenary work was outlawed. Citizens of Byzantium were no longer allowed to operate as mercenaries under the reasoning that it causes problems for foreign affairs.
Turkish Republic Claim Deal
After the creation of the Turkish_Republic , Justinian made a deal with them , giving them half of Anatolia(Eastern part) to the turk while the West and Center would be Byzantine , this deal started an Internal conflict in Byzantium between the Greek Head and the Armenian Town of East Anatolia.
January 2019 Elections
The election started out with a total of 6 candidates. 5 of the candidates were running for Consul, with the other being the only one to run for Legatus. The 5 starting candidates for Consul were Carlos_Dorelli, CorruptedGreed, moope787, WTDpuddles, and Voisardian. The race was steady, with all of the candidates posting their campaigns gradually throughout the month of December. However, being the first election, there were certainly bumps along the way. The Christmas Conflict led to Consul candidate Carlos_Dorelli dropping out of the race before the voting period started. Following this incident, Voisardian started publicly criticizing other candidates, borderline smearing them. [Historian's note: To be continued]

New Alliance Solution
After leaving NATO, Byzantium decided to take a more decentralized and article approach to its alliances. The next step of action was joining 3 separate alliances: the Tervel Alliance, the Near East Treaty Organization, and the Intermarium Alliance. The Tervel alliance is the personal military alliance between Bulgaria and Byzantium. The Near East Treaty Organization is a means of organizing the borders of the middle east. The current members are Byzantium, Judah, Persia, and possibly soon Greater_Armenia. Finally, the Intermarium Alliance, being an economic and military alliance for eastern and southern Europe. It has a defense pact aspect, so member states need to help one another if they get war declared on them. The members states are Byzantium, Bulgaria, MinskanRus, and Austria-Hungary. As January 12th, 2019, Austria-Hungary is no longer apart of this alliance due to declaring war on another member state, Byzantium (The Great Balkan War).
The Great Balkan War
Byzantium is a primary participant in The Great Balkan War, being the main defender against the adversaries, The Tilted Powers.

Foreign Relations
Friendly Relations
Bulgaria
We've known them for a while and get along well. There was a crisis over the town of Krasnodar which they let in but it has been resolved now
Romania
There have been clashes over the town of Aegyssus on the Danube but we've reached an agreement on borders and thus, we've become much friendlier as of late
Italia
With Italia now being recognized by us as the western half of our empire and their leader as an Augustus, it is safe to say we've become good allies despite our very shaky initial relations. I'm a huge fan of cities like Venice and Roman/Italian architecture so going to their country is always a treat.
Nazi Germany
I helped to fund the creation of their state and I like the ambition that Hitlar has for Berlin, still, some of their citizens have been rowdy and acted aggressively towards us so my thoughts on Nazi Germany are mixed. I hope that we can improve relations in the future though

Military Alliance against the Islamic State
