Question of Hainan

Event to Canton: "Question of Hainan." trigered by Champa event "Anexion of Dai Viet."
(Dai Viet all the time till anexion has RM with cantoneese but noone truly believes that it will help that Canton would not star agression agaisnt Dai Viet. But surprisingly it helped...)

"Hainan was tragicaly lost to Dai Viet in their famous counterattack of 1405. Being before it colonised by cantoneese it was still so at anexion of Dai Viet by Champa. We can not let them take those cantoneese when they are weaker than us. Before we could not attack Dai Viet becouse of royal marriages but now nobody stops us. So what we will do? Threaten Champa to secede Hainan to us or just go and take?"

A. Give us Hainan or get war!
Trigers event to Champa "Canton threatens us in Hainan question!"
Relations with champa -40

B. WAR!
War with Champa.
Trigers event to Champa "Canton declares war becouse of Hainan!"


Event to Champa "Canton threatens us in Hainan question!"
"Historicaly and culturaly Hainan belonged to Canton more than Dai Viet. Dai Viet took it only in famous counter attack of 1405. While they did not take it while it was in Dai Viet becouse of fragile royal marriage between them, now they feel their hands is free. Mighty Canton threten us with war if we not secede them Hainan. If we secede they promise to be our frends. Advisers advise to not have this danger becouse as land power it would be hard to us to hold that island."

A. Agree to advisers and fulfil Canton historical right.
Secede Hainan to Canton.
Relations with Canton +250.

"Ibrahim Nuh succecion to the crown."
"When Ibrahim returned to Champa from Hajj he found that his father lies on death bed. Nuh Adam kept alive himself only to wait his son and brother to return and save country from chaos. He managed that but did not predict that with return from Hajj problems will not end but increeses... In Hajj Ibrahim and Hamza did not improve their relationships. Thay even worsened becouse of Ibrahim took duty of providing covering of Kaaba. After death of Nuh Adam his brother accused Ibrahim Nuh of being usurpator becouse he himself decided without any consultation with him or real ruler. He rebbeled at Mekong delta from were come his troops under command."

Event: "Cambodia falls to Champa!"
Trigered: Cambodia controls Cambodia and Kmer or Cambodia and Bankok.

"By having only scirmishes with disorganised, demoralised and poorly controled Cambodia army, Champa` armies led by Ibrahim and Hamza who at last was happy to use his military skills, easely overtaked teritory of Cambodia and cities soon felt to muslim armies. Cambodia collapsed to Ibrahim dispite that these budist teritories was not easy to govern. Ibrahims as talanted administrator since beggining understand that he must not try to rule marginal and poor Laos province with its woods, swamps and lack of roads, but only concentrate his attention to developed and rich south. This was truly great strategic decidion to release Laos (or other name for county which forms from Laos province. I think it can be called Laos only "Laos" which already are three prov state, must be called different like Lan Xang.) as vasal and concentrate army to suppress rebels in south. Also he send diplomates to Cambodia neighborgs and they recognised new teritories as Champa legitime property and Champa as heir of Cambodia international relationships. This was very important in case of Phucket who after fall of Cambodia recognised Champa as is suzerin."

They mutilated his body almost the same as did Meccan pagans to great companion of Muhamed (SAW) Hamza (RA), his foster brother and great warrior after battle of Hud. As this happened nearby budist monastry some adviced to use situation and confiscate valuables of this monastiry becouse they likely were involved at least indirectly. But if mutilaters and killers of Hamza will not be punished, muslims, especialy his garnison would show some displeasure and khmers could see it as sign of weak."

Now it has conqured provinces which could be rich again after restoration of peace and stability but for it there is time to came. But Champa has now problem of being too poor to afford keeping those armies to pacify budist rebels. Solution came out of unexpected sides! Teenager Shoaib, who being pios and learning in madrassa with sholars, adviced that Ibrahim could speak with imams and they will ensure that in their fridays speaches they will inform muslim men about that wearing gold to man is forbidden in islam becouse gold is almost only means of exchange and let gold be only for women.

"Death of Ibrahim Nuh"

Ibrahim Nuh was one of greatest Champa ruler, who was great diplomat while being in Hajj, great conquer in war with Cambodia, and talanted administrator in revival of prosperity to cambodian lands after mismanagment at ZZZZ AAAA times... Normaly in this situation would rise instability but Ibrahims son Musa was great succesor, so instability did not hapen."

He knew that he can be quite good at war what he saw in war in Cambodia, or diplomacy what he expierensed in diplomatic talks with Lan Xang about overborder bandits. But he knew that he is weak at economy but after few months of governing Tanh Noah briliant helper proved to be his young frend Shoaib Harun who has get descent religious and secular education in madressa."

"Hajj of 1460."
"While it was easy for Shoaib Harun to persuade Musa to every reform which he wanted becouse Musa trusted economic development to Shoaib Harun. And Musa waited from these reforms results that he could built weapon manufactory. So when Champa was again litle stibilised from Shoaib Harun reforms, Musa decided that this is time for bringing foraign weapon makers to Champa. He or Shoaib Harun needed to go to Midle East and hire specialists. Of course that who will go will go to Hajj at first. But who will go? While there would not be unrest if Musa goes becouse great administrator Shoaib Harun is honored in nation, and Musa trust his frend, but still Shoaib Harun is not with military skills and this leavs country military weak. But if Shoaib Harun goes then these two years country stays without descent economist..."

He become to knew some new technics of iron casting and fortress building. Also he renewed Champa-Caliphate great relationships and visited his aunt Amina Nuh. While she was widowed and new caliph Muhammad VIII was from another wife of Abbas al-Mutawakkil IV, still he apreciated a lot a military efforts of Champa, largely becouse he himself was war ruler. His aim was levant. As he was in need of money, too. So he sold cheapely some equpment and weapon making secrets. At home with supervision of Shoaib was cheaply built modern weapon manufactory."

I am glad to see someone enthusiastic working on SE Asia, I hope an aberration of the whole area would be done, since Ahmed's new greater Champa really need an archrival.
Chineese states as world technology center will be frightful for far away Europe not talking about neiborghood Champa. In near years - 1472 Champa will diploanex two prov Viet Nam and have border with cantoneese state. At first years it will be frendly... At first years...
 
I do see an awfull lot of + BTV in these events, and I do wonder:

Is economic growth really this great?

Is there a sort of downward pressure on the economy in 1419, meaning it is only natural for BTV to rise?

Should there perhaps, instead, be a rise in starting base tax values?

Or are you just slightly overdoing it ;)

At first as You noticed there is almost only positive events (only some 3 true rebel and rebelrisk events). Mostly there is positive developmet about whom Champa must pay with money and stability.
At first I like at first to write positive events (I do not like those rebels). Those rebel events will be added in balancing gameplay. At second Champa pays a LOT money and stability in these first 50 years. Only when events will be included in game and played I will see does Champa can afford so much.
So worrid about that they are living on loans I gived them some economic boosts.
So - at first events and then by playing I will improve game balance.

(But that "men gold" is overpowered. But at that time ex-Cambodia teritories sits on rebelition, so there is no positive development. I want to add in events "Islamic courts in budist teritories" - three "legal courts" but Champa has problem with money (I think so from their spending)...

Which Year? I do not know. Seems that after spending 700D at 1461. Champa spends 1461-1472 to get out of loans. So this event happens after fall of Cambodia (somewhere ~1440-44) but not too late cos then these teritories could be muslim already. So when I will play then I will see where to put it. It could be reform of Ibrahim Nuh but Shoaib Harun (Reformer - Helper as known in South East Asia) is greatest reformer of Champa...
"Islamic courts in budist teritories"
""Our true religion is religion of justice with most wisest God apointed laws. Only ignorant and biased do not see greatness of these laws. But even those who do not recognise their duties and position in front of God, even they must obey Gods ordered laws when they lives under autority of islam." Shoaib Harun argued about impletion of islamic courts on budist teritories. "I hope they will not be so rejectionist and arrogant and will value these superb laws who is given to them to only bring justice in their society." But they did not."

A. Implete islamic courts in budist teritories.

IIRC, you can't say 'have a revolt in a sunni province' or 'improve relations with a buddhist'. Usually, it can only be truely random, or for revolts you could put it in a random non-state religion province.


Oh, and another point, I wonder why Champa forcing others out of provinces REDUCES Badboy...

edit: nvm, either you changed the values, or I misread the first time
