It seems like you could reasonably start the game in 1825, which is about when the independence wars in Spanish America wound down. Did something special happen in 1836 for the sake of the game?

railroads in england i think?

Secret alliance doesn't sound like a great idea unless it's for a very specific offensive goal. Otherwise you're willing to bet another country will come and save you based on some piece of paper.

a piece of paper but also the realpolitik that lead to the decision to make the secret alliance? like no one is signing a secret deal to do some war out of the kindness of their heart

clearly they are an archduchy because after the revolution they decided to never have a king, and archduchy is the made up title for equivalent to king but not a king technically

That's why the ACW is apparently special-cased. Is there another example of a political/non-separatist civil war that could have ended with two viable states in the time period?

the russian one? ended with like six more states than it started

I take it you're not reading the thread? On the previous page of your post, like... maybe 5 or 6 posts before yours, someone posted this about what PDX said about it:

right I thought most of the point of the systems in the game was that they could get some what historical interesting outcomes without pre made special cases like that?

How does EU4 handle the AI for the nations? I feel like it's most likely to be similar to that.

individual rulers have personalities but also mostly the ai just examines its circumstances and tries to paint the map in all situations

Am I missing something or is there really no point in joining Diplomatic crisis and entering other nation‘s wars as player?

Other AIs can add wargoals meanwhile I am fighting a hellwar against Prussia + Russia in my Austria game and I‘ll not get anything out of it. If I had a console I would yesmen white peace that poo poo war.

So how can I add my war goals when intervening to protect German minors?

If it‘s not possible, it‘s probably easier and better to just go to war with Prussia myself and liberate all their minors.

ai can offer you bribes yeah. also if you are in a war and theres no war goals against you you can just capitulate to get out for free

So there's gotta be something causing the "bandit" trait to appear on leaders way more often than it should. In my current game, the leaders of Russia, Prussia, France, Spain, Britain, and Brazil are all Bandits, not to mention my own King of Dai Nam.

What do other players do when their states are in turmoil? I just sort of ignore it and eventually it goes away on it's own, and I know there's the "Violent Suppression" decree I could use if I needed to, but I was wondering if there were tools beyond that.

increase the cost of the good and the factory will be able to pay higher wages. or depress the local economy so the workers will not have higher paid jobs to jump to
