Interesting. Will these offices appear as ancillaries?
Game of the Fates
Mod of the week on hold -- I've played nearly every RTW mod out there.
BOYCOTT THE USE OF SMILEYS! (Okay, just once)
Antiochos VII...last true scion of the Seleucid dynasty...rest in peace, son of Hellas.
I've returned--please forgive my long absence.
Yes, we use all of them IF they still match the sixth century. Some are outdated, others were replaced by new names. Please note that the first schematics wer made to explain the time between 360-460AD. But 95% are still present in our mod.
The internal city system of Constantinople is of course showing the Justinian era and will be included completely, also the Ostrogothic system.
Also important: terms like viri spectabilis or viri clarrisimi are not a title - it is a ranking! Until the 7th century that kind of ranking was clearly arranged in the Roman Empire. However, in the later romano-byzantine time the ranks became "inflationary".
To adulate the courtiers at the royal court a lot of new titles were created. But that's a long story and not so important for AoD2.
nice research, and concurs with most of the stuff (John Julius Norwich's trilogy most notably) out there on Byzantium/Eastern Empire beaucracy
'Only the Dead Have Seen the End of War' Plato
'Killing is Negotiating' A militiaman in 'Blackhawk Down'
Can i add this exelent research link to the histoical info thread in CBUR?
The late Roman administration (of Justinianus and Maurice/Mauricios)also considered as "early"Medeival Roman"(byzantine)too...
As always a recearch worthy to be shown to whole twc comunity!!
TGC in order to continue its development seak one or more desicated scripters to put our campaign scripts mess to an order plus to create new events and create the finall missing factions recruitment system. In return TGC will give permision to those that will help to use its material stepe by step. The result will be a fully released TGC plus many mods that will benefit TGC's material.
Despite the mod is dead does not mean that anyone can use its material
read this to avoid misunderstandings.
IWTE tool master and world txt one like this, needed inorder to release TGC 1.0 official to help TWC to survive.
Adding MARKA HORSES in your mod and create new varietions of them. Tutorial RESTORED.
the stuff will be published next time in wikipedia.
Anyway, you can use the schematics in CBUR of course. With the Maurice schematic I'm not so happy :-( I will make a new one (but the content is correct now - I'm talking about the optical design)
...but please avoid the term "byzantine" in combination with my work.
I prefer the historical wording.
Roman Empire of the middle ages or simply Basilea ton Romaion.
You are right...that is why i use frequently the term "Medeival Roman Empire in the "relative infos thread"!
Thanks mate!

Wonderful work here, Pompeius Magnus - a clear and detailed layout for novices like me!
AHM Jones, The Later Roman Empire, II covered the civil administration in considerable detail (vol I was history iirc). I think describing the staff of a high ranking civil or military official as bureaucrats mightn't be strictly accurate in any modern sense if a person follows Durkheim's definition of a bureaucracy. Viscount Norwich's history was also issued as a single volume. Counting the staff of every high official, civil and military, also staff assisting the luckless decurions, if any, counting any waged workers operating the public post (mansio), and not counting the ordinary soldier, I doubt there were many public employees. It was, however, complex. The grain ships that criss crossed the Mediterrean, the barges that plied the Rhine and Danube had a state contracting organisation. I find it fascinating.
Pompey's list is excellent.

Read one of those books actually. Pretty good.
Here's a late east roman army link structure:
