I'm gonna guess religious differences.<br />4. On the Adriatic coast of the Balkans, I'm pretty sure.<br />5. It's the Tigris or he Euphrates...I have no idea which...let's go...Euphrates!<br />6. That great French romantic, Peter Abelard.<br />7. CKII tells me that's near Tunis...let's go Tunisia?<br />8. Poor cartography? Nah, I think this is one of those crusade things in Muslim Spain. Almoravids is one of the IDs I can remember.<br />9. Normandy?<br />10. My grandfather would be ashamed, but I know nothing about bulkheads. Maybe to separate different sections in case one sprung a leak?<br /><br /><br />UnwiseOwlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09466448988499591715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10779294.post-69517118605602390842015-09-07T14:15:10.873-07:002015-09-07T14:15:10.873-07:001.

No, just kidding. Thai?<br />3. Hordes from the steppes taking over, kinda pre-Mongol-like?<br />4. Dalmatia is the east coast of the Adriatic Sea, like Croatia today.<br />5. That's the Tigris and Euphrates. The Euphrates is the larger and longer one, so this one is the Tigris.<br />6. How would I know??<br />7. I thought Gabes was in what is now Morocco, like across from Gibraltar. But I don't think Morocco is a "small country". So let's say Tunisia.<br />8. The Reconquista, I assume. The Ebro is in Spain, I believe.<br />9. Whether England or France rightfully owned parts of France, like Normandy.<br />10. Um, strength? And/or to, like, keep various goods separate?pflyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16866574024138674337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10779294.post-61625007513004369832015-09-07T09:11:13.742-07:002015-09-07T09:11:13.742-07:001.
