Chapter 1117: An Annoying Fiancee

Over the past year or two, the Byzantine Empire had been engaged in reconstruction efforts, both in terms of the territory that had been devastated as a result of multiple wars, and their economy, which had been completely and utterly crippled.

At the head of these efforts was the young prince Alexandros Palaiologos, who had been named the sole successor of Emperor Vetranis Palaiologos. Though the boy continued to live in Kufstein, he had begun spending a considerable amount of time in the lands he would one day inherit. 

Alexandros was not even in his teenage years, and yet he had proven a more capable ruler than his grandfather. Whether it was overseeing the defense of Constantinople during the previous invasion by the Golden Horde, or simply managing the Byzantine Empire's economy, Alex had begun the process of recovery for the lands he would one day inherit.
