My Mutapa AAR was going pretty good for 50 years, and then the evil forces of EXAMS got me into the torture known as studying.
And during my times at war, someone with Mugabe-ish stupidity saved over my Mutapa file
Now that I'm free to do AARs, I had to make a new one, while I'm at it. Why not satisfy my nationalism once in a while?
And maybe teach people a little about Indonesian history so future games won't describe the spice islands as a mud-poor uncivilized hellhole
So people, I present to you, the nation that shouldn't have existed in 1399
The Sultanate of Makassar
It's an OPM, but thankfully it's got one of the few forts in Indonesia
Also it's Sunni, surrounded with friendly neighbors, which is good thing early on. Why?
Aceh, Malacca and Brunei, the only neighbour not guaranteeing me in day 1 is Hindu Majapahit
Speaking of Majapahit, Indonesian consider them as the predecessor of Indonesia, they also symbolize Indonesian unity over diversity. it's kinda insulting seeing them described so poorly in the game
Speaking of Majapahit AND insults,
Oh, than we'll just talk more about Majapahit later on after I get some sleep
