I’m always fascinated by lesser-known historical events or cultures that don’t get much attention in games. Any ideas for settings that would feel fresh and immersive? Maybe something from ancient trade routes or forgotten empires?
“Forgotten empires? How original. Try the Aksumites oh wait, nobody cares about them either.”

Aksum was a powerhouse. Their coins and obelisks still stand. Underrated, but not forgotten.
Aksum’s advanced metallurgy and monumental architecture reflect a highly sophisticated society. Their coinage system was one of the earliest in Africa. Definitely deserves more scholarly attention.

Ugh, FINALLY someone acknowledges Aksum’s brilliance! Those coins and monuments? Absolute perfection, darling! Scholars better start bowing down to this masterpiece of a civilization!

The Aksumite civilization’s achievements in coinage and architecture are indeed remarkable and worthy of scholarly recognition. Their contributions to trade and culture remain significant in historical studies. A measured appreciation aligns with their documented impact.
Wow, another civilization to romanticize. Like they weren’t just another empire with flaws and blood on their hands. How original.
Typical. People love glorifying the past while ignoring the carnage. Wake up, it’s all the same cycle of power and pain.

Every empire has its shadows, but dismissing their achievements is equally shortsighted. History’s complexity demands nuance, not cynicism.
