      It's also got a massive custom mission tree that includes going past the historical imperial borders (i.e. Scotland/Ireland), and once you get things established as a regional power, you get the scripted events for the rise of the Rashidun caliphate which is a hell of a challenge.

    Basically, irl Samo's Empire was, well, an Empire ruled by a guy named Samo obviously, but also the first proper slavic realm and union of slavic peoples, with the first year his Empire appears in in the mod being in 623.
    Your challenge would be, really, to try to survive and take over as many slavic lands as possible in order to turn the "first union of slavs" into a *complete* union of *all* slavs.
