An Age of Miracles	comment	Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomaion is an Alternate History series being published at AlternateHistory.com. The main point of divergence is the birth of a healthy young Theodoros II Laskaris, who does not inherit epilepsy from his father; as a result, he is able to quickly reunite the successor states to the Byzantine Empire in the aftermath of the chaos caused by the Fourth Crusade. There is at least one other known point of divergence, in the form of difficulties encountered by Charles of Anjou in the conquest of Italy.The thread where the series is written and discussed can be found here. Edited and finalized sections of the narrative are published here.

An Age of Miracles / int_1bc2e445	type	End of an Age
An Age of Miracles / int_1bc2e445	comment	End of an Age: The Fourth Crusade, which begins the narrative, also serves as a more violent example of this trope, shattering the concept of Byzantine invulnerability.

An Age of Miracles / int_424c9a9b	type	Cold-Blooded Torture
An Age of Miracles / int_424c9a9b	comment	Cold-Blooded Torture: Subverted by Kristina and her spy network/secret police. Suspects are suspended from the ceiling of a room and left alone while horrendous screams echo through the dungeons. They invariably confess. Obviously, the screams were from actors paid to do so, allowing confessions to be obtained through minimal bloodshed.

An Age of Miracles / int_50b05d30	type	Disproportionate Retribution
An Age of Miracles / int_50b05d30	comment	Disproportionate Retribution: Andreas harbored a grudge against the city of Venice as a result of the Black Day. He draws up plans for the complete extermination of the Venetian population, with the exception of the Jews, Croats, and Mamelukes in the city. He and Zoe are rather disappointed when they realize that killing that many is impractical, and end up allowing some of the children to be spared.

An Age of Miracles / int_7464705c	comment	Arc Words: The "Age of Miracles" quote functions as this. A somewhat bastardized version that replaces the word "miracles" with "dragons" ends up rising to prominence after the Emperor's Battle as a reference to the achievements of Dragos cel Mare, Vlad Dracul, Dragos Musat, and Vlad Drakos.

An Age of Miracles / int_970c790a	comment	Big Bad: The Timurid Empire is the distaff counterpart of the Byzantine Empire, and has on multiple occasions attempted an invasion. Venice can also lay claim to this position as a result of its actions during the Fourth Crusade, the War of the Five Emperors, and the Black Day.

Manuel and Demetrios come to an agreement by which the two are appointed co-emperors, Demetrios as the senior emperor, in order to quickly take out Thomas and respond to the threat of a returning Timurid invasion.
