Byzantium – Council of Florence and the Union Revolt
In 1438 a delegation from the Byzantine Empire arrived in the Italian City of Ferrara. In what posterity calls the Council of Florence, the Empire agreed to reconcile with the Western Church and create an Ecumenical Union to unite Christendom. The citizens of Greece were not happy with what looked like a betrayal of their very souls for temporal benefit, and the disaster at Varna appeared to prove their point.
This is a disaster for Byzantium that fires immediately, attempting to represent the turmoil and scheming as a result of backlash to the Council of Florence. To survive it you must either:
– Align the religion of your country and your ruler, one way or the other
– Defeat potential revolts and reconcile with your estates
– Earn the right to chart Byzantium’s course by defeating the Ottomans for the first time
If you stabilise your relationship with the estates and choose to remain in the disaster until the Ottomans are defeated, you will gain some bonus rewards.
Note: The name "Union Revolt" isn’t the result of my scholarship of the age, but a name I felt appropriate to describe what I’m hoping to model with thie mod. If someone more learned about the Byzantine Twilight Era has a more appropriate name, by all means let me know!
