By decree of the Roman Emperor, Justinian III, a large contingency of Greek scholar has set sail in a mission of preservation of great knowledge in the world. Their journey, which will take them across the whole length of the Mediterranean, will end in the islamic kingdom of al-Andalus, to the great university of Córdoba, where some of the greatest scholars of the age reside. More importantly, a place where islamic, christian and jewish knowledge exists side by side with little discrimination. As it is known, the Roman Emperor wishes to incorporate these vasts amount of moorish knowledge into the great library of Constantinople. In particular, writings from such great scholars as Geber the Alchemist, Rhazes and Avicenna the physicians, as well as treatises on architecture, botany, engineering and astronomy.

These arabic manuscript shall all be translated into the Greek language for storage in Constantinople, and for study by its greatest scholars. The great library, the oldest in the world, shall also be expanded with many new annexes to house this new knowledge.

The scholars from Constantinople are most welcomed to the university of Córdoba. As are all who are men of peace and knowledge.
The scholars at the university of Córdoba are looking forward to meet the greek scholars and discuss the great sciences with their
learned brothers from the Byzantine Empire.

The good relations between Al-Andalus and Byzantine Empire are truly an evidence that muslims and christians can live in peace
side by side. The people of Al-Andalus asks themself why the northern christans choose war before peace, and stupidity before knowledge.
