Ajuuraan is a country in the Horn of Africa region of eastern Africa. In 1444 it is adjacent to its vassal Mogadishu, one province minor Pate, and Marehan, and thus in a relatively safe position. It employs units from the African technology group as do its neighbors however, opponents across the Red Sea in Arabia flaunt the stronger Muslim units. Depending on the individual game the Ottomans might also expand into conflict with Ajuuraan later on, and mid to late game is certain to find western European powers intruding into the Indian Ocean as well. Ajuuraan follows the Shafi'i school of Islam.

Strategy[edit | edit source]

The below is one of many player suggested strategies for Ajuuraan. Bear in mind, due to the dynamic nature of the game, it may unfold differently for other players.

Go for the numerous gold provinces in the north and south. I recommend allying Yemen and eventually Mamluks or Ottomans. Ally Kilwa as a last resort. Go for theocratic reforms for navy as you will be expanding into Coromandel region after taking the horn of Africa. Prioritize gold mines and take vassals to ease AE. Switch Hindu to expand faster into India and to receive the nice buffs. Later go Sikh when it is an option. Culture change then form Deccan at admin tech 20.
