Habsburg Megacampaign: Part 27: 1261-1263: Emperor Asclettin

It took only one more revolt, and after crushing 6 revolts in a row, Georgia finally had a moment of rest. Other realms don't seem to be quite as badly affected, but rebels definitely ramped up a bit.

I had far too much money for my own good so I kept building new Great Works in spite of rapidly increasing cost based on how many I already have:

• Love Gardens in Provence
• Great Harbor in Nice
• Hagia Sophia in in Constantinople
• Great University in Venaissin
• Royal Palace in Forcalquier

Last few years of Hugo's reign were spent trying to convince his dukes to convert to Orthodox Christianity and cleaning up the borders slightly.

Hugo died at age of 59 - or whatever his real age was, Fountain of Youth messes it up a bit - to be succeeded by his oldest surviving son Asclettin.

Asclettin is a 11/24/10/10/3 Occitan Brilliant Strategist, who thinks of war and not much else.

His wife Baia queen ofg Georgia, Daylam, Armenia, and Al-Jazira is arguably the best catch in the world, and they already have two boys together, as well as a daughter who travelled to Song China for whichever reason to marry into Song imperial family.

His heir Uc is due to likely inherit the greatest realm since Roman Empire, stretching from Frisia to Khorasan, with some gaps.

Asclettin is a legitimized bastard himself, and continuing glorious tradition, also already has one bastard son.

Asclettin and Baia are together ruling over an enormous empire, inhabited largely by rebellious infidels
