Welcome to 1161.
Having captured northern China, the Jin Dynasty invades the south. Their navy leads the way across the Yangtze River. But China's new paddle boat navy is faster and more maneuverable, and they use large, ship-mounted catapults to fire explosives onto the Jin ships. So great is Jin's defeat that they assassinate their Emperor and sign a peace treaty.
Moslems in southern Portugal launch a major counter-offensive, driving the Portuguese back to two miles from Lisbon.
After assassinating the King of Sweden last year, the new King is assassinated by Karl VII, who rules six years before he gets assassinated. Little is known about him other than the Catholic Church grew during his reign.
