A New Power Rises

golden_century_events.16

Beyond our borders GC Hegemon has risen above their rivals, and from the Battle for the Strait they emerge reaching for a mastery that will not halt at their own frontiers. We are neither sworn to them nor set against them, yet a power of such ambition casts a long shadow over all who dwell beside it.

The choice before us will not wait forever. Should we come to fear their reach, a coalition of the wary stands ready to receive us; should we read the wind otherwise, there is safety yet to be found in their favor. Whether we bend, resist, or merely watch, the century to come will not leave us untouched.

  • GC Hegemon raises their European Dominance and Colonial Dominance in strides through conquest, colonization, and statecraft. Each threshold they cross hardens their grip on the age

  • By defeating GC Hegemon in war we may impose a Peace Treaty that curbs their European Dominance or Colonial Dominance by 25
  • Flashpoint Events may occur to GC Hegemon during this Situation
