[Deprecated] Restitue Imperium Romanum

Serving as a sequel of sorts to the popular Hearts of Iron 3 Byzantium mod (found here[forum.paradoxplaza.com]) for the newest installment of the Hearts of Iron series, this mod intends to overhaul the Balkans and Anatolia by re-introducing a Paradox Interactive fan-favorite, known by many names: Rhomania, Basileia Rhomaion, Byzantium, or the Eastern Roman Empire.

In the midst of the chaos after the Fourth Crusade, the situation for Rome seemed hopeless. However, through slick political maneuvering and a series of fortuitous events, Rome not only recovered, but began to thrive. After the Latin Empire fell and Thrace was retaken, it wasn't long before the many splinter states of Hellas, Macedonia, and Epirus began to fall back under the sway of the Roman Empire.

Although secure in its existence after retaking Achaia and Athens, the history of the region remained a rollercoaster, with Bulgaria, Serbia, and the nascent Ottomans threatening Rome from all angles. However, the western coast of Anatolia never fell, and the Bulgarians and Serbians never quite succeeded in prying any major cities away from Rome.

Rome reached its most recent peak midway into the 19th century during the 'Eastern Reconquista', which saw the recovery of Anatolia by Roman forces. However, stagnation, conflict with Britain and France over the Middle East, and misgivings with Russia over the status of Bulgaria would eventually lead to Rome joining the Central Powers during the Great War.

The Central Powers' loss in 1918, the subsequent liberation of new Turkish and Bulgarian states, as well as a great deal of suffering during the Great Depression, set the stage for the newest chapter in Rome's bloody three-millenia-long history.
