Adjectivally Byzantine (Eastern Roman History) - Poll

Post by Restitutor27 »

I've written a packet called Adjectivally Byzantine - this is a 20-tossup packet on history of the Eastern Roman Empire, roughly from the 6th century to 1453.

This is mostly written for the purposes of a casual in-person event in a couple of weeks and is basically just a vanity packet so I haven't really tried to subdistribute it beyond trying to avoid having too many temporal gaps. The difficulty is definitely a bit uneven (I don't have a lot of time to change at the moment) but on average this should be a bit easier than 2022 COHORT, I'd say there are no ridiculous answerlines (players with a minor interest in the ERE will have heard of everything), and I've tried to have fairly notable things in power for less canonical answerlines so this packet isn't intended to be excessively hard.

I'd like to read this on the Discord at some point in the next week if there's interest (probably at 22:00 UK time/21:00 UTC/17:00 ET so it's not too late here), will put a poll on the forums here and close in 2 days on Thursday.
