I love how the part of Greenland that Iceland colonized is named "Icierland" on the map. Also, there's no way we'd be able to build a navy that can beat a Bulgarian navy with our naval tech being so low.

This includes a fleet being there while it's fighting yours, so the solution is to blockade a strait with a large enough fleet that the AI can't gently caress with it. This does not, interestingly enough, include disembarking a fleet from transports. Do that when the gently caress ever.

NihilCredo posted:e: What's the difference between Christiania and Vestland? The way Wiz explained the regional colonial revolt system earlier, I'd tentatively guess that Louisiana and Vestland are part of the same revolter region, (Louisiana), but the different cultures formed separate states, while Christiania is located in a different revolter region, (Canada), despite having the same culture as Vestland.

We need to ally with Zhen (160 relations) and attack Russia. They're the richest, one of the most technologically advanced and the most militarily powerful nation in Europe. If we, Persua, Zhen and Poland all attack we can at least cripple them for a generation to stop them being incredibly powerful and eating us all up one by one. Also vassalize and annex khwarzim.

Kavak posted:Smaller countries in EU III get major tech bonuses because...I'm not sure. But they're just one province and in the Western group, so that makes them top of the line. They get tech bonuses so that larger, rich states don't totally dominate tech progression. It's not that strange when you think about it. Consider the period in the 15th and early 16th century when the Swiss were at more or less the pinnacle of European military tactics and technology.

 Chapter 47: Passing the Torch (1800 - 1810) Rafiq continues the commercial development of Azerbaijan, ordering the construction of naval equipment manufacturies in Trebizond, and passing laws to strengthen the legal rights of commoners.   He passes away in his sleep in 1805, after a long and peaceful reign. His son Ertan is very much like his father, though a little less competent and a lot less charming.   Ertan continues the Daei tradition of selling titles, provoking a revolt from nobles in Crimea who believe the new ruler to be weak. After some initial successes, the revolt is crushed with the help of Persian troops.   Rapid economic reform, long wars in Asia and incompetent rulers has plunged Russia into deep instability, and a revolutionary faction inspired and funded by the Germans has formed in the Russian heartland, propagating for the overthrow of the Tsar and the creation of a Russian Republic.  Meanwhile, the Germans themselves are facing a coalition of Poland, Burgundy, Bavaria, Bohemia and Denmark who together have launched an invasion of Germany that even the revolutionary army has been unable to beat back.  After a few months of bitter fighting, Frankfurt falls in 1808, putting an end to the German Revolution.  As the victorious nations assemble to discuss how to divide up Germany, news reach them that the Russian revolutaries have succeeded in their objective, seizing control of Moscow and forcing the Tsar to flee to Poland.   Faced with the threat of Russia's enormous economic and military resources brought to bear against them, the European Great Powers are forced to accept the unification of Germany to gain an ally against the Russians, installing the deposed Querfurt Duke of Hannover as King of Germany.  One revolution has been defeated and another one born. Will the Russians succeed where the Germans failed?

Honestly, the German Revolutionaries has accomplished most of its goals. Not all of them, the Revolution was crushed. But the Revolutionaries unified Germany and ensured a constitutional government (though one ruled by a King). That's actually not bad considering how they were in the center of Europe and suffered a dogpile of major proportions.

I hope Christiana and Vestland have unification efforts in Victoria, divided those nations are going to be pretty weak speed bumps to the USA. Also Cherokee now is the time to declare war on England take back your Mississippi province and go for some extra border stuff too.
