The Carmanians in the time of Sheng Seleris were producing red-black pottery and can be expected to have other greek parallels. The best analogy for them is Asiatic Greek fusion states of Seleucus, Bactria and Halicarnassus IMO. Interestingly this also gibes with the Russian parallel as they are also heavily influenced by the Byzantines. Takenegi was not a Young Turk as such as he was not associated with the Carmanians to the extent that Magnificus was.
