Many changes.
I know Saxony's a bot now, but that Aquitaine navy must be LETHAL. And Hungary seems to be getting attacked from all sides. Meanwhile, Aragon's a halfway-sensible shape for the first time in ages, having lost its eastern holdings to a Morocco that finally rules all of Africa.
Am I right in thinking Bavaria has lot all its cities? rwingett's map seems to say so.

Bavaria still owns Posen, but it is small and there are not many types of troops you can build there. Not exactly the seat of empire.
The Horde built a fleet in Vaasa, so Aquitaine's naval hegemony may need to be reasserted.

Aragon didn't get up to terribly much this last season. Followed the Bavarians into Saluzzo (can those Lippizaners ever gallop!); took back Provence; returned Egypt to Morocco (thanks for the holiday m'lud); killed Garibaldi's household cavalry, though one suspects the wily commander himself just melted away; took Ratisbon--one heavy cavalry unit went in, killed the single Bavarian archer unit stationed there in defence, and held on against the single German knight unit that galloped in on phase two; the heavy cavalry survived the encounter long enough for the province to change hands. All pretty low-key stuff.
As for Sicily, the direction he was taking was quite obvious even before the announcement, although the confirmation justifies the precautions that have been taken.
