- Daini (= Damak Var)

- History of Orioni
- Can I borrow anything from Anitta (king)?
- Re-use the many ages of Elam#Elamite Empire as inspiration for my Medani Empire.
- During the insular era, introduce some economic cycles, as described in The Great Wave (book).
- Borrow Classical history of Dion from Dion, Pieria (°424 BCE).
- Have !Saint Hildegarde (1098-1179) flee to Orioni, so she can be more independent. This fits into the post-war Restoration period (~12th Century).
- The Pearl Road needs some ruling council system. Look at the Hanseatic League. I require some form of tax ruling to justify the later collection of back taxes, and formation of colonial empire. See also: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hR3IhT-XvsE&t=292s
- Use of !Catalan Company mercenaries to police the vast colonial assets (~14th Century).
- Vassals send tribute in the form of a golden tree (see Bunga mas). Can be larger or more frequent to punish bad vassals.
- Quote of some imperialist admiral: "(Political) power comes from the barrel of a cannon. It must always be an Orinese who aims the cannon."[1]
- See if I can re-use the story of these female monarchs for any of my empresses: Nest ferch Rhys (1085-1136), Empress Matilda (1102-1167), Razia Sultana unknown-1240).
- How about some pirates that come and kidnap people? Either Orinese in Volsci, or Buranians in Orioni.[2]
- Stick the Pathé logo on some old news photograph or film reel.
- Employ a successful version of the !Victual Brothers as my explanation for pirate cooperation during the Civil War, and Buran influences afterwards.

- Setup Vali(s) Group.
- Setup Buran Group as a private military company to sabotage Volsci (see fake Turan Group, supported by Wagner).
- Fix military ranks.
- 'Rumbler' aeroplane (~rumblr).
- How to Rebuild the Navy, after the Thalassan War. https://www.usni.org/magazines/proceedings/2022/january/getting-back-top-how-rebuild-navy
- I really like the SAAB aircraft design. Use the Saab 35 Draken (1960-2005), Saab 37 Viggen (1971-2007), Saab JAS 39 Gripen (1996–present). In the future maybe get the Korean KF-21?
- Replace Adenhold Bruiser with the equally swole Andika Perkasa. Cool picture on Reddit: https://redd.it/sx1k7t
