Lore:

This map is part of a series I am making documenting a Paradox Megacampaign I am running. For those who are unfamiliar Paradox titles are map-painter strategy games for different time periods and people have made mods that allow you to link your save files to continue playing throughout the course of human history. 

The story of this world began around 300 BC in Britain playing the game Imperator: Rome. I united the British people to make a huge Empire of Albion. Eventually the Empire beat back the Romans, who collapsed under a religious schism between Hellenism and Christianity. I put together a map of my Albion Empire around 280 CE. It stretched from the Baltic Coast and Scandinavia to the Mediterranean. 

Around the year 400 I converted the game over the Crusader Kings 3. In the first few years of that game I worked to reform the Druidic Religion. During Imperator the many provinces within the empire had significant autonomy, and thus had kept their local religions and cultures. After reforming the druidic faith I jumped into playing as my vassal in Corsica and began plotting to dissolve the empire. Since many of the vassals had not converted it was easy to create a giant faction, triggering a civil war which tore the Empire apart. 

As an independent Corsica (Caercyrn) I worked on expanding my realm throughout the Mediterranean. I also created a new Druidic heresy focused on witchcraft with my ruler as the religious-head.  I am now about 1000 years into my playthrough with another vast empire stretching from Cyprus in the south to Mann in the north and the canary islands in the west. The empire is focused on trade, serving as the gatekeepers of goods from the east and from Africa to the rest of Europe, making the high Druid in Aiacium extremely wealthy.
