    Looking good.
    "There is a difference between what is wrong and what is evil. Evil is committed when clarity is taken away from what is clearly wrong, allowing wrong to be seen as less wrong, excusable, right, or an obligatory commandment of the Lord God Almighty.

    Evil is bad sold as good, wrong sold as right, injustice sold as justice. Like the coat of a virus, a thin veil of right can disguise enormous wrong and confer an ability to infect others."
    -John G. Hartung

    I don't believe Bohemia was German at this time, Weren't the Medieval Bohemians Czechs?

    @ Dialectical Materialist

    Bohemia was under german rule from 929 until 1806. (And under austrian-german from 1525 until 1919). Although they had an own dynasty, the Přemyslovci from 1000 up to 1306 as dukes of the german emperors.

    @ druvatar

    very nice!

    @ IVIarkI2I

    the stem saxony became insignificant after 1180, when the german emperor Friedrich I. Barbarossa splitted it into many little feudal counties.

    so any ideas my desire is to only break the HRE (DHHR) into two factions
    may be simply Westen DHHR and Osten DHHR?
    thank you
    (I will basically be rebuilding ChC totally now that I am more skilled!)

    how about break it by dynasty? so HRR will be :

    House of Habsburger
    House of Wittelsbacher
    House of Luxembourger

    @ Peteriscoolz

    have a look about post #1

    @ druvatar

    HRE at 1380


    May you tell me, whether you wanna change the timescale? Or do you wanna leave it unchanged? If yes: 1375 up to 1600: "Erzherzogtum Österreich" (Habsburg/eastern). But there weren't any feudal country or dynasty in the west, which where notable enough to mention it as own faction. (western HRE were splitted to very small feudal counties. One of the biggest and most important in the west were: "Kurfürstentum und Erzbistum Köln" (Elector-principality and Archbishopric of Cologne) most permanent. Or (not as permanent as Cologne) the dynasty of Luxembourg (Dukes, kings and emperors; as kings from 1308 up to 1400; Dynasty died 1437)....

    Hope this helps

    Hi,
    2 german factions - then its easy which ones should be in the game - austria and the rest of the reich - as Odoaker shows - Habsburg ruled Austria and parts of southern germany,
    Later also bohemia, parts of northern italy, the netherlands and hungary.

    I chose the map in terms of area covered but REP! ( did I say very, very! Gigantuan rep!) to GiGantus! he did the base map (heights, basic features like rivers) it is truly an awesome Job!! I don`t think I have seen a Map as well done!
    my mapping will now consist of adding settlements and resources and may be an extra feature here and there! this will take a little time~ it is such a well done and beautiful map! I will strive to get as accurate and correct as I can with every resource, settlement or feature! I will do the best I can to do this glorious Work! its justice!
