    Fun fact: in Russian "Tmutarakan" nowadays has the same meaning as "Bumfuck" - some small settlement far away from civilization. It quite an amusing word for a Russian ear (and probably other Slavs as well), because it basically sounds like "Dark Cockroach/Darkness Cockroach". Another amusing Russian synonym for Bumfuck is Muhosransk - "Flyshitsk".
    Also, apparently city got this name only during 10th century, when Slavs got hold of the area, and previously was called Tamantarkhan by Hazars, so Paradox did a little whoopsie, lol. Hope they'll fix that one day, after all, they have the great feature of city names changing based on the culture of their owner.

      Про Тмутаракань мало кто вообще знает в России, поэтому никто не говорит о ней в таком ключе, а вот "Мухосранск" - да, ещё есть "Зажопинск" и "Залупинск" (это из самых популярных выражений). Некоторые говорят о "Задрищенске" и "Новоебенёво", а вообще в России много сёл или маленьких городов, которые имеют нецензурные названия, кстати, их предложили переименовать совсем недавно

    I did this exact same challenge a few months ago starting with the same character. Also went for the Caucasus but then took over Cyprus as a base to invade. After Jerusalem was taken I realised that I was surrounded so I became a vassal of Egypt and then worked from the inside to destroy the sultanate, may have murdered a few Egyptian Sultans. Once I was independent and formed Israel I then went on to conquer Syria and Egypt as well, fully restoring the promised land. So glad that these obscure but fascinating characters are being done and look forward to your future videos Snap.

Generations later, Constantinople fell and the Byzraeli Empire dominated the Eastern Mediterranean.

    I don't think it's the hardest. Because your liege is Kuzarim you can stay rabbinic, plus if you form a hybrid culture with the Khazars (giving it the unique name Kuzarim) you can get horse archers. Then, take a county in de-jure isreal, declare independance from the Khagan, then swear fealty to whoever is in Jerusalem. I will say its super fun tho. If you want to get the revive Hebrew decision to work tho, you'll have to take another county cos Isreal doesn't have enough to meet the requirement (I reccomend Saini which also holds one of the holy sites)

      No way for this not to get political as it has already attracted people boasting about the genocide Israel is committing. Maybe avoid it altogether by not creating videos around regions where some of the worst conflicts are currently happening. Maybe prioritize the fact that regardless if it's a game, some issues are way too sensitive and can't be approached without knowingly or unknowingly taking sides and sending a message.
