Komnenos’ Glory (EN version)
Trebizond, the last bulwark for the legitimate claimer of the throne of Eastern Roman Empire. Before the fallen of Constantinople into the hand of crusaders at 1204, grandchildren of Andronikos Komnenos, Alexious Komnenos and his brother David Komnenos, had anticipated the upcoming failure and fled the city. With the help of their protector, Queen Tamari of Georgia, two brothers captured the city of Trebizond, which was by that time the most important military garrison and prosperous trade port in Pontus region, and later Alexious Komnenos crowned himself as the emperor of Roman Empire. Although 258 years had passed since the last emperor of Komnenoi dynasty ruled over the eternal Roman Empire in Constantinople, the members of royal family of the so called Trebizond Empire would never forget how their glorious ancestor, Alexious I Komnenos, had saved the Roman Empire from seemingly irreversible extinguishment and how most of their house members had been slaughtered by their fellow countrymen during internal conflicts as well as foreign heathens and heretics during invasion. The flame of revenge burnt in their chest, but the hard cold fact was that they were truly the last hope and lineal descendent for the Komnenoi family, and their power seemed to be so minute compared to their rivals.
The Kingdom of Trebizond, ruled by the Komnenos family in the Pontic Mountains region on the southern coast of the Black Sea, was destroyed by the Ottoman Empire in 1461.
It was the last descendant of the Komnenos dynasty, which had revived the empire, and one of the last cessionist regimes of the Eastern Romans. When the clock is turned back to 1444, on the eve of the final demise, there seems to be a glimmer of hope of turning things around.

There is also an option to make contact with the Palaiologos regime in the far Balkans and, with even greater strength, forcing it to give up its imperial throne in Constantinople and become your vassal. Then wait for the right moment to blockade the Bosphorus with a navy no less powerful than that of the Ottomans, in time to recover the basic territory of the Greek region and thus expel the Turks step by step.
East Rome can be founded through event or decision and another event will be triggered to choose the name of the country. If you start with Trebizond, there will be three different sets of country ideas to choose from at this point.
After the successful conquest of the Turkic realm, a mission tree similar to that of the original Byzantium, but with many changes, is offered to restore the Roman Empire to the territories of Antioch, Alexandria, Africa, Morocco, Spain, Italy and even all of Gaul.

When a specific province is controlled, an event is triggered asking if a Theme should be established there.
Theme is a special republican vassal that does not occupy diplomatic relations and can assist the Empire in its military operations, but also periodically triggers an event asking for points, manpower, money and legitimacy from the Empire, the refusal of which increases its liberty desire.
Once a Theme exceeds 50% liberty desire, it is possible to trigger an exclusive disaster – The Imperial Themes are out of control
This will result in several debuffs, so please weigh this carefully.
Any vassal state of 10 years or more may be converted to an Imperial Theme for 50 administrative and military points through diplomatic action in Influence.
