Purple Double Eagle Flag

The territory of the Roman Empire in 1180 was roughly the same as in 1170. (Pictures from the Internet) The Roman Empire in 1170 was in the period of the Comnenus Dynasty. The collapse of the Battle of Manchikot in 1071 caused the empire to lose Anatolia. After Alexios I came to the throne in 1081, he embarked on a series of reforms and regained lost territory. During the period of John II, the empire had completely emerged from the shadow of the Battle of Manchikot. When John II succeeded to the throne, he inherited an empire that had just emerged from the quagmire, and everything was still recovering. After his death, he left behind a strong military force, a sufficient treasury, a good diplomatic environment, and a powerful empire. If the successor could continue to implement his strategic goals, the fate of the Roman Empire might be completely different. But the new emperor Manuel I was very happy with his success. He launched many useless wars for the empire, wasting people and money. In order to build a so-called universal empire, he paid more attention to personal reputation rather than the fate of the country. During his reign, he squandered the treasury and reused the Latin Party. Domestic conflicts became increasingly acute. After the death of Manuel I in 1180, these contradictions also surfaced.

Coming from Epirus, come and take a look. It's not easy for Jingluo to find a book to read these days 😭

Is the author planning to write about the pro-YSL and anti-Western Roman Empire? The emotional bias is too obvious. In fact, for the Eastern Roman Empire, the Latins were a scabies disease and could be divided into factions to fight against each other, while the Turks were a thorn in their side. It is normal to use Turks as mercenaries, but allowing YSL to spread unchecked will result in Asia Minor no longer being owned by the empire.

Character relationship diagram. The protagonist is Nikephoros

The opening policy is too retarded. No normal person would do this if he traveled back in time.

Question: I feel that the popular science flavor is still too strong. The author may consider referring to several books describing domestic history. Although I personally don't know much about Roman history, I have seen so many routines describing domestic history now that there is nothing new about it—this book does have an eye-catching feeling. At present, there are really few historical articles about Rome at the starting point. I hope the author can stick to it. Come on, author.

Let me repost this. I saw this post on Zhihu by a master's degree student in Byzantine history from Oxford University about the land situation of the Komnenos Dynasty Bye, most of the land is already the private property of the great nobles, and private property does not pay taxes

What do you think about updating once a day and how to revive Rome? !

It's Rome! Rome! Woo hoo hoo...(Sobbing)

The above comes from the full history of software

I still say that you cannot rely on mercenaries, mercenaries can only be supplementary. It is still necessary to rebuild the local heavy infantry, improve military pay and social status, and walk on two legs. It is best to rebuild a professional army that is similar to a legion, especially professional heavy infantry and heavy cavalry.

The pig's feet might look like Leo IV "Khazar" (considering the protagonist's semi-Turkic ancestry) (Leo IV's mother is a Khazar) 😁

Restoring Rome requires the joint efforts of all kings

The orthodox ruler of Rome was the Roman Sultan

Ah, uh, my summary of official positions in Dongluo is almost finished, and I will post one here when the time comes. 😏

Let me give you a pleasant word, the eunuch is not the eunuch, otherwise I would not dare to watch￣￣)σ

This introduction looks very familiar🤨

The author did not enter the palace, but was delayed by something.

Do you have any recommendations for good Dongluo novels? I've read more than fifty chapters of this book and I think it's quite interesting. It's a pity that it's a eunuch 😭

It's very nice to put on your bookshelf.

This name is a failure (personal feeling). The name Nikephorus doesn't feel that interesting. Names like Justinian, Alexius, and Constantine feel more comfortable

Author, what do you think of this system

I thought the author had forgotten this book

I originally wanted to watch it after fattening it up, but it turned out that I sent it when I was young.

I would like to ask the author whether there is any good way to solve the disadvantages of the military region system? (I think the military region should be reformed in the late Macedonian dynasty)
