This is the Netherlands, Ironman, on January 1st, 1820 (A year before the end of the game)

Political (That purple blob in Russia is the Livonian Order!!!)


Player


Religious (Catholic SUPREMACY)


Achievements Earned in Run: Je Maintiendrai- Market Control - The Rising Sun - Sinaasappel! - Colonial Management 

Very fun campaign, started as Holland and gained my freedom via a French/Austrian alliance that propelled me to the top. Took control of Dutch Cores by 1460, pretty much the rest of the time was colonization.

The most fun I had in this campaign was smashing Japan and taking it for myself, then moving on to China and totally ransacking the coastline. 

Craziest thing to happen in this game is the Livonian Order Baltic Crusading way into Russia and also Poland is in the middle of kicking the **** out of the Ottomans, but the game is going to end before that.

Most glorious Arabia (with that yellow nation being the Emirate of Romania (a vassal that I made) and the blue one being the Emirate of Croatia (also a vassal I made)

I tried fighting France for Italy one time. France is very OP in this game. Scandinavia as well. (RIP Russia)

I did the game this summer when I had a leg cast and couldn't do much. I got bored after a while and stopped before I finished.

My long anticipated Basileus run!!

This game was probably the most intense I've ever played in EU4. The first 10 years are the most crucial, and it took several tries to get it perfect (you really do need a perfect start). 

Some **** I did:

- tried to purge Turk culture (while struggling to stay sort of in pace with Diplo)
- struggle to stay on pace with the rest of Europe's tech (really only Militarily, the rest doesn't mean ****. I probably used 10,000 ADM on coring the Turk/Mamluk/Italian Provinces
- managed to wrestle Poland AND Lithuania under a PU after a big pair of wars with France
- Converted the state religion of ^^^ to Orthodox, though Poland refused to convert

"Why didn't you annex Poland/Lithuania?"

Cool stuff that occured: Look at Spain. Louisiania decided it would be cool to invade Castille, Navarra became butt-buddies with France and they conquered Aragon, but not to be outdone Aragon survived in Sicily for like 200 years consolidating then in 1614, they invaded Tunis and slowly expanded/converted North Africa. (that whole Iberian situation was cool to watch)

Savoy could have formed Italy if I didn't steal Rome, Utrecht made mini-netherlands, but Holland exists as a nation in the Americas. The USA is BEAUTIFUL. 

Scandinavia IS Russia. Ming is a monster (w/ Chinese tech). Chagatai is pretty big but weak as hell due to being Nomad tech. 

Ethiopia is a coptic wonderland.

Islam sucks (not islamaphobic **** off)

Turks took the biggest L of all time, ROME HAS RETURNED!!!!
