Rome Total War The Siege of Constantinople-Bulgaria vs The Arabs 717 AD
Posted by admin
LIVE BATTLE
The Bulgars, who had established friendlier relations with the Byzantines a year earlier under Khan Tervel, ostensibly because of the looming Arab threat, came to the aid of the besieged city in the fall of 717. Norwich states “The Bulgars had no love for the Byzantines, but they were determined that, if Constantinople were to be taken, it should fall into Bulgar rather than Arab hands.” The Arabs were surprised by the new and unexpected enemy and his attack on their own camp, followed by a horrible massacre. Encouraged by this, the Byzantines opened the gates and attempted to break the siege, but were stopped at the Arab trenches and had to retreat back behind the city walls because of the following Arab counter-attack. This scene was repeated several times during the siege with the same ill success for both sides. The incessant Bulgar attacks in the rear of the Arabs forced them to build trenches also against the Bulgars. This way, however, the Arabs found themselves in a thin line between two fortifications, which were attacked both by Bulgars and Byzantines. After an unusually harsh winter, weary from the long attrition of siege warfare, thinned out by disease and hunger, and demoralized by the lack of success in assaulting the city, the Arabs attempted to retreat to their ships in July, but were devastated by a Bulgar attack against their land forces. Contemporary chroniclers report at least 12,000-15,000 Arabs died in the first Bulgar attack.

I just planned a vacation in Rome for next week, but will the museums be open?
Posted by admin
I know Carnival season is in full swing next week, but what about the museums? Anyone know if they'll be shut down? I was really wanting to see all of Rome's historical sites as well, and the Vatican.
No problem, everything will be open, Rome doesn't really place much importance on the Carnival period.
Remember, the last Sunday in the month the Sistine Chapel is free. Get there early, it will be full.
