Fate of Trebizond

After a long siege and stiff resistance from its inhabitants, the city of Trebizond, the last stronghold of the Greek Trapezuntine Empire, has finally fallen under our control. This ancient city, built upon the rocky heights overlooking the Black Sea, is a jewel of culture, wealth, and history. Yet its populace consists mainly of Pontic Greeks, devout followers of the Orthodox Christian faith, potentially threatening the unity of our Muslim realm.\n\nAs the new rulers of Trebizond, we now face a crucial decision. We could grant local autonomy and guarantee the rights of the existing population, thereby ensuring their cooperation and maintaining the city's existing culture and prosperity. However, this approach might foster a dangerous, insular pocket of potential dissent and rebellion.\n\nAlternatively, we could promote a migration of our Muslim Turkomen brethren into the city. This would dilute the Christian influence and ensure a loyal populace, but such a move would likely lead to cultural clashes and disrupt the city's current social and economic stability.
