I've also been tinkering with the idea, that since Templar immigrants would probably consist of around 2000 people with maybe 10% of those being Templar Knights, that in the late 14th early 15th century Lollards could also come over to escape religious persecution in England.
After all the Knights Templar was a holy order and ultimately answered to the pontiff. If the Knights Templar grew strong enough again perhaps the church could use them to break the earthly powers of the Christian kings who thought they could dictate to the Church of Rome. The remaining Knights Templars in Europe had two main roles.
Templar knights, easily recognisable in their white mantle with a distinct red cross, made some of the best equipped, trained, and disciplined fighting units of the Crusades. Non-warrior members of the Order managed a large economic infrastructure throughout Christendom, innovating many financial techniques that were an early form of banking ...
The Templar Knights were stunned by the visage the beheld their eyes. The land stretched beyond their sight. They knew they had reached the great western land of Leif Ericson. Jacques de Molay took a long look at the vista of their new domain and then ordered his Templars to start unloading their remaining ships.
With a POD, 1300s, escaping persecution, the remnants of the Knight Templar's take their fleet and treasure from France, and sails to North America, landing in Modern day Newport Rhode Island (because Newport Tower) and create a settlement called New Jerusalem. How would the Templars interact with the Natives? Would they try to expand?
This entire thread is ASB... sorry. Danwild, there is just no way short of ASBs to get the Templars to America. Most pre-Columbian contact theories I have read are bunk, easily disproven by scholars with actual knowledge in the field. Greenland and Iceland were barely known in the era, and no...
In 1385 AUC, Weroance Denta-Lupus of the Powhatan brought his armies to bear against Elysium. Attacking the Limes with siege engines like ladders and rams, the tribals broke through with an army of ~150,000 warriors. Capturing Nova Toletum Emerita (OTL: Pittsburgh) and the governor of Lenape, Weroance Denta-Lupus waged guerrilla warfare against ...
The Confederate States of America could have been much more extreme than it ended up being. Advocates for the pre-secession status quo won out, but many Fire Eaters advocated for reopening the slave trade. There was a bill proposed in Georgia to re-enslave free blacks. What if these hardliners... KostromaMooseFarm.
The Last War; or, the Triumph of the English Tongue (1898) is just wish-fulfillment, 26th-century America has 185 states in North and South America, deported all African Americans, and is ready to conquer the Tsar, who of course is also the Pope, the American victory meaning that by 2600 AD “The dream of the ages had been realized and peace ...
This policy originates from the early half of the new Medieval era. The flow of the river was different then and it's path took it near Dyersburg. By the time of Sheriff Dale II in 2456 , Dyersburg had grown into a great city of nearly 40,000. The merchant guilds had carved out vast tracts of land for themselves.
