1453, a year that marked the end of an era
With one city's fall, a shift from Medieval to Modern
Constantinople, a name etched in time
For a thousand years, stood strong and sublime

Against foes that dreamed to take her down
She persisted, unbroken, a true crown
But tonight, everything changes
Guns fired, women weep, men yell in ranges

Praying to God for a savior's grace
To rescue their city, to restore its place
In history's twist, God answered their plea
Sending a new emperor, the one they'd need

Antonius, born of the seas
To lead the Romans, a new destiny
To reach another pinnacle of might
And end the city's terrible plight

1453, a year that will forever divide
Medieval and Modern, with a fallen city as the divide

1453: Revival of Byzantium

"Man is an animal that makes bargains: no other animal does this - no dog exchanges bones with another."

-        Adam Smith, The Wealth of Nations

By the delegate's basic understanding of the Latin language, he is at least able to understand the title of the letter. "Forsit ex commune forum on insulis nuntiabunt", and immediately he understood the admiral's difficulties with an idea blinking up into his mind. With no hesitation smiles occupied his entire face as he looks up towards the admiral asking. "My lord, may I know if you are having any doubts and concerns about the economic stability of your realm?"

Antonius is startled, then realised that this man saw the letter, he silently folded the letter into half preventing the man from reading it and asked. "Why? You understand Latin?"
