Description

Looking at this map and that one (woodsman2b.deviantart.com/art/…, you would think almost nothing has changed
in 25 years, except for the loss of Spain and some Italian lands... If so, you are mistaken greatly... In 628 has just ended the bloodiest Roman-Persian wars of all...
Heraclius was a brilliant soldier and strategist who has striken the mighty Persia in its heart (with the Khazar help) while his own capital was under siege !
The battle of Nineveh sealed the victory of Byzantium... The Holy Cross is back to Jerusalem, everything seems to have gone back to normal...
But this war would let both the empires weakened, with their gates opened to the swift Muslim invasion... But that is another page of History...
