What cities / military installations are between them and Moscow? When looked up Voronezh I saw it was pretty close to the border; didn't realize they'd actually traveled all the way up from the south to get there.

Not much, that map is already very obsolete, they've been spotted driving through northern Tula oblast (which has a governor reportedly friendly with Prigozhin) and approaching Moscow at a steady pace. As for what's in their way... Well, the loyalists have been trying to barricade roads with parked trucks and to tear up the highways with excavators, so far to no effect. Otherwise the only ready units are cops and lightly armed Rosgvardia goons. Kadyrov's Akhmat troops are supposed to counterattack at Rostov, but have been seemingly "stuck" at the same spot for the whole day.

Armacham posted:At least they left Brittany alone Brittany didn't leave them alone though, in 843 they beat Charles at the Battle of Ballon and briefly took control over the Breton Marches which is most of what's considered Upper Brittany today. In 849 the Bretons began to raid the Marches again and when their king Nevenoe died in 851 during a raid his son Eripsoe took over, beat Charles more convincingly at the Battle of Jengland and signed the Treaty of Angers that gave Brittany the Breton Marches, Charles gave Eripsoe royal regalia and recognized their independence. Here's the maximum extent of Brittany's territory.

ChubbyChecker posted:whats the terrain like there? is that place difficult to conquer? Not particularly. It's largely flat with a few sizeable rivers and forests, assuming you're talking about the Breton Marches and east of them. The only real terrain that would be difficult is the Monts d'Arrée or Menez Are in the center of Brittany which is the remains of an ancient mountain range with a highest point at like 400m or so.

400 meters is a slight hill.

FreudianSlippers posted:400 meters is a slight hill. Yeah but when you live in a very flat place it's all you've got. See the towering Porcupine Mountains for another hilarious example. Those who are brave and dedicated enough may even be able to scale Mount Arvon the highest summit of the Porkies at 603m. The summit is indicated by the blue sign.

It was more than that wasn’t it? I thought genetic evidence implies the immigration actually left a mark. Not nearly as much as the Germanic migrations but not nothing.

The Normans were norse descendents and the French nobility are going to have had a fair bit of frankish german genetics, I'm not sure how clear any genetic markers are to distinguish those populations from the centuries of norse and north german settlement

All areas not coloured in do not have genetics, biological entities outside of confirmed genezones should be considered hostile. Avoid contact at all costs.

There was the sorta-genocide of the Danes too, which you can still sort of see, I guess, in Guavanaut's map? The border between the blue and red areas in Yorkshire pretty much follows the course of the River Aire, which was the starting point for William's campaign from there to the Scottish border.
