I just checked, it was Sylvester II. He was pope for only 4 year, 999-1003, but he instituted many needed reforms in that time.

I also checked up on the Byzantine Empire just now and the EMperor in 1000AD was Basil II.

Suffering from ads?

RocMaster, if you don't like history, you can take a country as it is TODAY! Go to the W99 thread.

GeoDan, no offense, but you advertise in our thread, we advertise in yours right? Competition makes the world go 'round.

Also, don't blame me, Bill wanted to restart.

I personally don't care about advertising as long as it's done in moderation. So either we can both stop advertising in each other's threads or continue to do so, doesn't really matter to me which ever way, but some might get annoyed.

I'll warn you first, my time constraints are getting tighter, but I will try. Is anyone taking the Pope? I would literally like to BE the Pope, not really control and empire, but just issue orders as the Church.

Mao: Yes, Midshipman is the Pope. However, if you were Odo, head of the Cluniac Order, you would still have much religious influence.

Bearcat: Vikings were predominant in the 800s and 900s. By 1000 AD the Scandinavians had become, for the large part, civilized. However, Denmark was the most powerful Scandinavian state at that time.

Spartan: The Baltic tribes were neither Slavic nor Germanic. The Baltic languages are in a seperate subset of the Indo-European language family. The Baltic tribes were ancestors of today's Lithuanians, Latvians, and Estonians.


If anyone participating here needs some more information, feel free to ask me.

Oh!!! That Game 7!!! I can't believe I didn't realize what he meant!

GO ARVYDAS SABONIS!!!

Bearcat, as you may have noticed Arvydas Sabonis is the Prime Minister of my nation in the W99 thread.


Here's what I know about the Cluniac Order:

It was a Monastic Order that first became prevalent in the mid-900s when the Benedictine Order declined. It was based in the city of Cluny, in souther-central France. It's leader sometime in the late 900s was Odo. The Cluniac Order revitalized Christianity for many Europeans through its programs and reforms. It controlled monasteries throughout western Europe, and so had enormous influence. The Cluniac Order was one of the Pope's most useful tools for enacting Papal edicts and reforms. It was essentially the right-hand of the Papacy. The leaders of the Cluniac Order were able to build a gigantic church in Cluny.
In 1095 when the Pope made his famous speech calling for the Crusades, he made the speech at a church council in Cluny.

I hope that clarifies things a bit. The leader of the Cluniac order had religious influence almost as great as the Pope's.

No, I will take France... I won't take a puny country like Bulgaria, because as this is my first time, and I know the terrian of France, I would be able to better defend myself in hard situations. And I don't want to be taken advantage of.

Oh the newbie is standing up to us If you have noticed Bulgaria is by no means puny. But since we need veteran posters who will most likely want France, what if you took Burgundy. You said you knew the terrain and as I remember the Burgundians where fro a long time very poweful. If not than you can keep France.

Well, I noticed that there is the mistake in the map...

Poland had Pomerania, and that Slavic States was under Polish influence and they served to Polish King. It is the situation in 1000 year.

I know there are many mistakes on the map. It was the most accurate one I could find. And although some of Poland's territory is left off the map, it also has some territory added that it did not control in 1000 AD. Please stop nitpicking.

Well, there is no problem with me ruling France, at the time of 1000 AD. France wasn't much but a coastal landmass that was only protected by the Rhine Valley. They didn't even become a power till after they invaded England, and Germany in 1100's. Plus they were so divided between their lordships, they weren't a threat unless invaded by a foreign country. The only advantage is that, France has very good defensive posistions, and a overwhelming population over the bordering states except the Germany, who had the strength of the Holy Roman Empire behind it.

OOC: OK. I wanted France, but Roc having it is fine. If noone wants England, I'll take it. If not, well, Italy I guess. They will come into their own soon with all that damn trade. So here is my list:

England
Italy

I dont know if I am a veteran here. Whatever that is at Apolyton, there have never been 'vets' per se. Just smarter people. So. Up to you guys. Maybe me and Roc can play to Lords of France in a huge battle or something, that would be fun.

Well since France, at that time was split into 21 different lordships, it would consist of about 1000 battles, and since a monarch was crowned at 986 ad, but didn't fully take power till 1145, we could do that, but that would consist of pretty much this entire forum.

Luk, first of all, I did not make the map. I found it. Secondly, the map shows Poland as posessing much territory in Germany (north of Bohemia) and in the Galicia region that it did not possess at this point in history. So stop *****ing please.
