Ooops. We have a rather huge mistake here.

I'm sorry, there is a huge mistake in episode 7. Just looking at a map and I was suprised to see Tyre and Tripoli were separate cities, it turns out I completely misunderstood my information. Tyre, Sidon and Aradus never fused together to form one city, Tripoli was the centre of a confederation between Tyre, Sidon and Aradus. I'm really sorry for the mistake.
