Here is our map for the start of the game.
Important notes for the Seven Islands variant:
- Due to increased number of support centers the victory condition is 21 SCs, not 18.
- There are land bridges between Sardinia and Corsica, Sicily and Naples as well as Cyprus and Syria. I tried to make them more apparent with ugly red arrowds.
The Spring 1901 turn will end on Sunday, 9th July 2017 at 1900 GMT. Please have your orders in by then.

++BREAKING++ Shots returned at the Bulgarian-Ottoman border since 12 o'clock
Bucharest, Bulgaria - Without forewarning, islamophobic and cowardly Bulgarian border guards opened fire on our unsuspecting and brave border guards of the pious Ottoman empire. Since 12 o'clock shots have been returned. We will keep our readers updated next issue on whether our troops succeeded, and could sack the responsible parties for this heinous act of aggression against the realm of the religion of peace.

Copenhagen, Denmark - Tobaccoists in all of Europe are reporting an alarming shortage of the Latakia tobacco beloved by so many pipe smokers. This tobacco is exclusively produced in the regions of Syria and Cyprus. Reportedly a group of thugs has recently shown up in Syria, using a black flag with a white circle as their symbol and setting fire to several warehouse housing the tobaccy delicacy.
Our beloved Sultan, peace be upon him, has promised military aid to his brethren in faith, in order to ensure the continued flow of Latakia and bring delight to many pipes and waterpipes to the rest of the world.
The Ottoman secret police had the displeasure to hear rumors that the group had been funded by our beloved Sultan, peace be upon him, and that our beloved Sultan, peace be upon him, has usurious plans to utilize a monopoly on Latakia tobacco in order to increase military spending to subjugate the rest of Europe. Clearly such rumors are the misleading whispers of evil Jinn, and the Ottoman secret police wishes to make it well-known to the populace of the prosperous Ottoman empire that partaking in this slanderous gossip will be punished by cutting the lying tongue off.
