Bitbeat

788K07

A time traveler inherited the crumbling Roman Empire. In 1272, Constantinople's territory shrank, its finances collapsed, and its army collapsed. Distilled liquor, movable type printing, artillery, fleet... He used technology and rationality as swords to tear a bloody path through the old world of theocracy and ignorance. From the first pot of gold in the royal workshop to the roar of the Anatolian industrial zone; From the undercurrent of Vespers in Sicily to the bombardment of the Black Sea and Mediterranean wars; From the iron hooves that conquered the Turks to the white sails of the New World. This time Byzantium was no longer the end of history, but the starting point of civilization.
