I am a reader more than a writer, but I like to write from time to time. I'm a writer of war, fantasy, romance, and suspense novels.

Year 6, I correct myself.
The first image shows the establishment of the Suaza kingdom, around year 5. The second image shows its expansion in the middle of year 7.
Yes, that's how it felt. I lost a lot of novels I had downloaded before: ebooks, scientific papers, even my unfinished thesis. They weren't really connected at all, since they're from two different periods, but I understand your point. Also, I appreciate the offer, but as I mentioned before, I generally have little time, and... to be honest, I'm embarrassed to talk to people online, haha. Just reading, commenting on, and critiquing the novel is enough for me. But I'll always try to reply to comments (even though you've experienced my delays, haha) if you want to ask anything. P.S. I'm not kidding about the embarrassment; imagine, I talked to a friend recently, after 6 YEARS, haha. PD2 The history of the Mongols would focus on 1250 (their expansion) or 1300 (their fragmentation). On the other hand, the clash between Rome and Africa could occur between the Kingdom of Kush in 300 (in decline) or the Kingdom of Aksum in 330 (growing, and the first Christian kingdom).

The first image shows the original Muisca territory and the neighboring Tairona to the north and Pijao to the south. Nyia and Umza, Chuta's wives, are from this region. The second image shows the first expansion of the Muisca, with the establishment of the central city and the first settlements.
I won't lie, I did lose some things, but the chapters and drafts, which were more important to me, I managed to upload two weeks before. Among the things I lost were: some historical notes I had prepared for future overarching plots, research that supported certain policies, technologies, and vital knowledge, and linguistic research on minor cultures in case I needed them for names or terms. However, what hurt the most was that I had all this material for other novels in the same saga. I lost it and I don't remember where I found it. It's not irretrievable, but I had made a lot of progress. Information, drafts, and even some chapters that were going to deal with the Mongols in their golden age. A good amount of information about a culture in India, and also an African culture that would clash with the Romans at their height. These are things I can recover, but with the little time I have (between work and the construction of the new house), I've honestly put it off. Finally, the truth is that if you've noticed changes (even though I've tried to hide them), it might be more due to my mental exhaustion... Or at least that's what I think. PS: As always, sorry for the long replies. [img=recommend][img=strong]
Hello. I'm truly sorry you felt that way. And I hope it doesn't diminish your appreciation for this story. The truth is, since my house burned down three months ago, I haven't had any time; I even went almost two months without posting. Now that I'm back, I've tried to maintain the pace and narrative of the story, even though many of my notes were lost along with my old computer. Generally, I address the most vital points, those that might affect the reading experience or perhaps cast doubt on my research, in the author's notes at the end of each chapter. This is due to a lack of time, and because I dedicate all my free time to the novel itself. And unfortunately, I neglect direct interaction. Despite that, I must say that I'm sure I answered your comment in one of these author's notes, specifically in chapter 164. In it, I mentioned that I was also surprised by the information. I'd looked into current productions and the number could be even more outrageous. P.S. I'm sorry again that you felt that way, and thank you for your support. [img=recommend][img=strong]
Hello. That's a good question, and it has two answers. First, through a kind of alliance and a way to forcibly integrate into the European sphere. Let me explain: in one or two generations, or even in the near future, it's possible that Suaza citizens could marry English people. Their children would have the opportunity to integrate into European societies as English citizens, and consequently bring the Suaza kingdom into the European sphere without wars or territorial occupations. Not to mention that strengthening England through marriage could help limit European influence in America. However, I'm clear that this could be counterproductive in the long run, since England would become too powerful. But as long as the kingdom fosters progress and progressive thinking, they should be at least one step ahead, otherwise we'll be accelerating a first world war. Second, Chuta can't take charge of all of America, nor can it limit the ambition of Europeans. Therefore, he has decided (not explicitly, but it has been evident in the later chapters) that he will 'guide' civilized and opportunistic colonizations in different areas of America. For example, England, just as it did in our story, will colonize part of North America. However, I want to clarify that it will be a joint effort, so they will try to reduce deaths from armed conflicts and ensure a significant portion of the culture resulting from this pro-Suaza colonization. By the way, I want to clarify that although English colonization didn't occur until much later, they were already undertaking voyages to North America. Furthermore, the first naval reforms began around the same time as the novel's present. [img=recommend][img=strong]
