I've been in this body for two months, for now the wars that existed in my timeline are happening exactly the same, the Imperial School of Castalia is a school for the elite It won't be much use for 21st century high school, but I managed to absorb historical knowledge from the medieval period of Italia Australis, that's the name they give to what Brazil should be from my timeline, there were very interesting events in the medieval period of Italia Australis, in 488, the Kingdom of Augustopolis defeated the Goytacazes in the Battle of Circa Magna, King Claudius V expanded his kingdom inland, in 549 in the Republic of Nova Olissipo, Eastern Roman ships arrived there and the sailors told the consul Lucius Marcus that the Western Roman Empire had fallen and now the Eastern Roman Empire was legatee of Rome, this news was a shock to the consul but it was already expected. In 728 Umayyad pirates plundered a village of Indians of the Potiguar tribe and settled in the north of the northeastern region of Italia Australis, the consul of Nova Olissipo, Carolus Magnus learned of the advance foreigner and gathered about 5 thousand legionaries who were led by Legatus Legionis Fabius Licinius, he defeated the Umayyad pirates in the Battle of Natalis, so the Potiguar Indians swore loyalty the Republic of Nova Olissipo, with this they gained better control of the Northeast region, while to the south of the Northeast, the Kingdom of Tharsis was in a civil war between the military who wanted control of all the coastal cities of the Kingdom of Tharsis. In 855, after decades of conflict, King Andreas IV of the Kingdom of Augustopolis, Consul Honorius Marcus of the Republic of New Olissipo, Otto VI of the Kingdom of New Alexandria, and Petrus II of the Kingdom of Tharsis, established the Treaty of Caesarea, in which he made a rare non-aggression agreement in the Middle Ages of Italia Australis, the treaty was maintained until 900 when King Petrus V declared war on the Republic of Nova Olissipo, thus this rare period in which the four Roman states were at peace, from 1100 until 1530, plagues and bloody civil wars devastated the four Roman states, until the Portuguese arrived in 1500 and the Lusitanian War of Conquest began and the Roman states fell one by one, there are channels on YouTube focused on the Portuguese period in Italia Australis, I am currently watching the channel "Spatha and Arcabuz" is by a Luso-Roman historian who tells the story of the situation in Italia Australis.
These days, the Roman Space Agency detected a strange signal coming from Saturn, noises of a strange language and strange objects flying over the Moon, the whole world is on alert, something was watching the Earth, My grandfather, Emperor Titus IV, revealed to the world the first EMP missile and was ready to launch it at flying objects.
It seems that the other inhabitants of the solar system have decided to contain the expansionism of us earthlings, at the moment they have sent their space fleets to scare the military and economic powers, I don't expect Democrats to want an interplanetary Gulf War, nor will the next president want to start an interplanetary war.
Furthermore, I doubt they have the technology to defend themselves from an extraterrestrial attack, at least the Israelis have some chance of defending themselves from such an attack.
The clock in my room read 5:45 pm when a maid came into the room and spoke.
"Your Highness, Empress Flavia and the director of the Imperial School of Castalia are in the living room waiting for you."
Well, I think it must be really something important, so I got out of bed since I was reading a book about the difference between warrior peoples and merchant peoples and which of the two generated great advances, for now, Anglo-Americans are by far the ones who have generated the most great advances, but with the recent arrival of Saturnian ships to the Moon, I think that classical societies have their bonus, see China and us Romans.
I went downstairs, went to the living room and there was my grandmother Empress Flavia and the director of the Imperial School of Castalia, Francesco Cosimo Rossi.
He was looking at me with a look of astonishment and my grandmother was also impressed, Francesco cleared his throat to get my attention and spoke trying to keep seriousness in his tone of voice.
"Your Highness, Crown Prince of the Roman-tropical throne, your performance in the first semester test was most impressive, you got 10 in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Rhetoric, Contemporary Latin, Classical Latin, Late Latin and Medieval Roman-tropical Latin, with these numbers I think I will forward you to after this academic year, your entry into the Legio Urbana Military Academy, your knowledge can be used in the Roman-tropical army, I know something happened to you after the terrorist attack and now I see that the Crown Prince will return to being a natural warrior just like to his ancestor Emperor Titus I and Titus III who, as crown prince, fought in the Second World War, in the Pacific War, being vice-admiral of the 10th Roman-tropical Flotilla, becoming the greatest victor of naval battles in the New World, about 38 naval battles, so much talent cannot be wasted on mere normal studies, even if you are elite, you are the future emperor, not a mere nobleman who is the son of the owner of some winery that exports to Europe, that's why I came here to tell you that you will be sent to the Legio Urbana Military Academy."
Incredibly, my grandmother was very impressed with me, she really didn't expect that her talkative and unfocused grandson would become someone who was evidently very different from her grandson, she was in a chair adorned with gold and she says, still impressed.
"Your grandfather will be pleased to know that the crown prince is someone who has an intellect superior to that of the nobles, the Legio Urbana Military Academy is one of the most sought after for places, beyond the Honorius Marcus Military Academy in Nova Olissipo and the Rubio Nostrum Military Academy in Nova Constantinopla, you have my support, I see that you have become something different from what you were before and maybe it is the beginning of something bigger, you are now dealing with his destiny and not accepting being a mere common prince of the dynasties in the Old World, I will talk to your grandfather and he will give the final verdict."
I agreed with my grandmother, I know that the Saturnian kingdoms will probably not accept Earthly dominion over the solar system, I will have to encourage the scientists here to invent things that will only exist in 70 years or things that only exist in the 23rd century like an interplanetary missile and a planetary defense system, notably the costs will reach trillions, however there is a way to reduce costs, but it seems that humanity has not yet discovered a way to make a practical nuclear fusion machine, as far as I know the Tropical Roman Empire is doing his own practical nuclear fusion machine project, currently being made in the basement of the Nova Istria military base, in the province of the same name, when I'm a little older I'll see if are they closer to having the power of the sun or are they very far away, then I spoke in a respectful tone to director Francesco.
"It is an honor, Director Francesco, to study at the Imperial School of Castalia. I promise that I will try even harder for the rest of the school year. I will be the best student after the legendary nobleman Maximilianus Augustus Quintus, the father of the Roman-tropical atomic bomb, the Lux aurorae, thank you very much director Francesco."
After that my grandmother released me to return to my room and the director was accompanied by butlers and left the castle.
This alternate timeline has taken a slight detour, but it is not yet the time for extraterrestrial forces to plunder Earth, not yet.
