	Spelling: "Ptolemaic". Allow "Crusader" (i.e. no "s") and "Outremer". Also, I'd suggest allowing "Arab" for the Rashidun Caliphate.

	Thanks for the suggestions! I'll make the changes.

	Why 1260 for the crusaders? They ruled Acre until 1291, but almost all of the rest of the crusader kingdom was conquered in 1187, by the Ayyubids, who were overthrown by the Mamluks in 1250 (and meanwhile the crusaders controlled much of their old territory again from 1229-1244). The Mamluks defeated the Mongols in 1260 but that didn't really change anything. Also, before the crusades, the land passed back and forth between the Fatimids and the Seljuks (although the Seljuks were at least nominally subjects of the Abbasids). I'm not as familiar with other periods, but there are probably other complications. I'm sure you don't want to make it overly complex and impossible, though...and I knew all the answers so apparently it works the way it is.
