# **Versions of Hordes of Asia**

This page is used to document and archive previous Hordes of Asia updates.

Before naming the project, Hordes of Asia's mod files went under the alias "Eclijan." This was the *de facto* name of the mod until November 16th, 2019. In the 0.3.0 Pre-Alpha blog post, I use "Hordes of Asia" when referring to my mod for the first time.

## Eclijan Pre-Alpha 0.1.0

Pre-Alpha 0.1 was implemented on 20190902. The foundation of Eclijan was created from a broken "Empty World" Hoi4 mod's files. This choice caused issues later on in development.

* Added the Latin Empire and most of the Frankokratia; LTE, PAA, ATN, DAP, and THS.
