*Roman Empire vs. Aztec Empire (Sunset Invasion): As the Aztecs overlook their new holdings in Italy and gaze upon the wonders of Rome, they can't help to wonder what the great empire that built these monuments were like.

*Update to the Onision story. Has sued Chris Hanson and fellow YouTube creator Daniel Sulzbach (also known as MrRepzion) for stalking and cyberharassment and it went as expected. Things started off weird when Onision decided to represent himself instead of hiring an attorney and then showing up in a suit, sunglasses, sneakers, beany, and a knife proof vest. As the trail started it became quickly apparent that Onision sued the wrong Chris Hanson and he soon asked for his case against MrRepzion to be dismissed. Though Hanson's lawyer tried to have the case dismissed with prejudice, it was denied, so look forward to the sequel.
*YouTuber Jason Ethier, also known as JayStation, ones again finds himself embroiled in controversy after faking the death of his girlfriend Alexia Marano. In the video announcing her 'death', he visited her supposed roadside memorial and explained that she died when a drunk driver hit her. Though he initially got a lot of sympathy from the YouTube community at large, once people started to dig into his story they soon found that a lot of details didn't match up, including that the memorial wasn't for Marano and that there were no reports about any kind of car accidents at the time of death. Not soon after, Ethier posted a video where a attempted to summon Marano's spirit using an Ouija board. Marano later posted a video on their shared channel revealing that she was in good health and that Ethier forced her to partake in the publicity stunt and had abused her, but this was later removed for unknown reasons. Later, Either made a response video, saying that while it was indeed all a publicity stunt Marano willingly worked with him on it and had given her blessing. This was brought into qustion after Maraono posted a video where Ethier rather forcefully told her to record a couple of lines for the Ouija board video. What will happen next in uncertain, but I will keep you all up to date.
*NBA legend Kobe Bryant tragically died in a helicopter accident while on his way to a basketball game which killed everyone on board including Bryant's 13-year-old daughter Gianna and college baseball coach John Altobelli. Exact details of the crash are still unclear, though the Los Angeles Police Air Support Division suspects that it had to do with low visibility. Many politicians and other high ranking basketball players mourned Bryant's death and reminded the world of the many achievements he accomplished during his life.
