Infinitium Protectorate in Risu

Timeline:

1114:

February 28th: Protectorate founded
March 10th: Demeter Founded. Plans for Hectare's path are drawn up and the Canal as well. Same day as Orleans Affair.
June 1st: Oiseau sends the Letter of 4 Righteous Demands. Which is ignored by Infintium.
Rest of Year: Kronies travel to the other end of Risu, and negotiate with local tribes, with mixed results but mostly positive. Most Tupai don't really care and the Kronies don't realize this, believing their apathy is support. Rumors of this wicked city known as Agra reach the Kronies.

1115:

January 30th: Contact with Agra is made. The Kronies as for submission, despite the warnings of the Tupai. This as expected, does not end well with Agra imprisoning the delegation. In effect, Agra is now at war with the Kronies but the Kronies after the whole debacle in Orleans aren't quite sure how to proceed. In the end, they resort to ransoming their captives, but plan revenge next year on the brutes.
March 20th: Oiseau officially starts its proxy war by arming tribes that are not too pleased with the Kronies intruding on their lands.
April 1st: Ceres is Founded, and as planned, the work on Hectare's Path begins.
May 7th: work on the Canal is start at both Demeter and Ceres.
May 18th: The first real resistance against the Protectorate is shown during a failed raid on the Demeter Canal construction. This is a total shock to the Kronies, but they believe that this situation is just a misunderstanding of intentions.
June 11th: Decree of Demeter is published and to be distributed to the Tupai over the course of the rest of the year. Its details are above.
August 4th: Agra boldly raids Ceres but is beaten back by the Varangians. Agra somewhat realizes the predicament they are in but is stubborn.
September 12th: Oiseau agents meet with the Prince of Agra, Demetrius and offer their support to his cause. Demetrius intially wants nothing to do with it until the Oiseau inform him that his situation is dire without proper aid. Demetrius agrees to allow the Oiseaux to set up an embassy in his lands and accepts their offer for modern weaponry that will arrive by the end of the year.
