There's some Ottomans in Britain, mostly descended from the female line I think. They all look like pasty englishmen by now.

If the title was inherited by Charles V then obviously Juan Carlos Felipe VI is the true Roman Emperor.

quote:

No one controls the Jesuit Order except its Superior General and his Assistancy at the Curia Generalizia. Emperor Juan Carlos is not an Emperor as was once known he is just a leadership figure head of the New unHoly Roman Empire. The Jesuits command the House of Bourbon, the Jesuits reinstalled the House of Bourbon. Juan Carlos of Spain was born in Rome and trained by the Jesuits. Those who have the power are the masterminds of education and the occult mystery schools which means the Jesuit Order. Those on the inside know all too well about the Jesuit Order’s power over these mystery schools...The World has always been dominated by the Priesthood in conjunction with its Kingships it created and grants along with its merchants using its Vatican Canon Law based UCC/Admiralty Law (Roman Civil law)...

King Juan Carlos never came of power until 1975 which was twelve-years after the assassination of U.S. President John F. Kennedy. Notice he came into power on November (11) the 22nd the same dating that Kennedy was slaughtered years before. This is the symbolism of Judas and also Saturn’s reaping judgment and the light of Lucifer tied to death and chaos. Kennedy was slaughtered by the Vatican power structure in conjunction with its control base as the City of London Corporation commanding the British Government. Kennedy was connected in the end with the non-aligned Nations and many of these detested all sides of the same Roman Empire coin. Kennedy could not be allowed to challenge the banking system of The Worshipful Company of Mercers. The economy is what rules the World for the merchants and their masters the Priesthood. This is the exact same reason Gaddafi was executed in the fashion he was by the French DGSE and with no trial etc being held unlike Saddam Hussein and Hosni Mubarak. Ask yourself why?

And even if the Ozzies all died out imperial law had a contingency plan for that. The dynasty was pretty small due to all the fratricide and it's pretty much a miracle the dynasty never went extinct. Shame though, the Giray Empire wouldn't have had the same ring to it, but it could claim to be the successor to Rome AND Ghengis.

The last Sultan would bury his treasure in a fantastical place and the Ottoman nobility (who all have distinct eccentricities and powers) would go on a wacky race to be the first to find it and claim the title of Sultan of Rum.

They called it the Steel Ball Rum.

No. The Osman family had a pathological hatred of the other Turkish nobility and would rather have seen the Empire burn than let them have even a whiff of power. They went WAY out of their way to keep the feudal nobility more or less powerless. The official contingency plan was to bring in the Crimean Khans as replacements. Mostly as a final gently caress you to the aforementioned Turkish nobility. The actual answer is whoever the Janissary wanted to take power would take power.

The Girays are in the same boat. Some rad artists in the family, though:

It really does look quite good. One thing I noted however is that you apparently can just rush down the entirety of the doctrinal paths from the start. Germany was on the verge of researching "modern Blitzkrieg", the last technology on the tree, after Fire-Brigades and the Backhand Blow (which one would assume necessitate the Eastern Front to exist) by 1939. Maybe it should be linked somehow to military XP so you can't just leap ahead (I understand the desire not to firmly link it to dates but this seems sillier).

It's like that Gihrens Greed challenge where you try to fight the entire One Year War with nothing but the starting tech Type 61 MBTs and Saberfish fights versus every drat robot killing machine that Zeon can throw at you.

Are you a bad enough dude to conquer the world with nothing but PzIIs and really great doctrines?

Yeah the dude that took over for him one week really screwed him over, since he was about to research Panzer IIIs becuase he had just got some national focus that would make the tech really cheap even though he was way ahead. Furthermore the guy who played for him instead started building a shitload of light tanks and added Grosstraktors to the panzer divisions.
