As the final High Priest of the Holy Apolytonian Imperium, I am pleased to report the defeat of our pernicuous and persistant foes, the Germans and Greeks.

Onwards to their capital, Athens.

Difficult terrain long proved the most steadfast ally of the stubborn Greeks. It took many difficult seiges to subdue their entire nation.
