@@Bitt3rSteelI like that Add the Congo to there too, as it and Belgium are apparently, somehow the least played nations in the new DLC (Apart from ones that didn't get any major updates, of course)
The true gigachad of this run is Aussa, who went to war with a world-spanning European Union, took out all their holdings in east Africa and got away scot-free
Would love to see you playing as exiled monarchist path, I think in MP with friends too early without losing officaly so you can achieve it early, by telling your germany friend to start on justifying on you at 1936, before he goes to civil war If he is willing to play as oppose hitball game. Then after that he will declare war on you and capitulate you and he will just take nothing from you. Just like a "tour in belguim" for german soldiers for politely convincing belgians that monarchy is best
In an upcoming update (might already have dropped, not sure), the European President will get the historical European Flag now, and I've also gotten rid of those annoying election events where you keep getting fascism / communism (this was due to there being a game mechanic election going on in the background at the same time as the focus-driven one).
I'm not sure if this is entirely true but I once met a Belgian who told me that to be an officer in the Belgian military you have to be quadrilingual; you have to speak French, Dutch and German because these are the official languages of Belgium and they may be the native language of any of your subordinates. And then on top of that you need to be able to communicate with your NATO allies you have to be able to speak English. Belgium is my favourite joke.
Hail to Belgium! I was actually trying do a custom game playing as democratic alt-history Germany into a world full of everyone being democratic or alt democratic, or as close to democratic as possible. I still lost the civil war due to bad micro.
I love that even after paradox broke the peace deals even more, they sat on their asses and didn't do anything to fix this mess. Player led peace conferences is always and will always be a necessity
The EU, protecting "Democracy", oh dear the amount of things I can say might land me in hot waters in some of its member countries... This is cursed, absolutely so cursed... Well done 😂
Bittersteel: Alright, you go to Finland, northeast from here, and ask them to join our faction since they're being invaded by the soviets Diplomatic representative: Go to Ireland northwest from here and ask them to join our faction, got it
meanwhile in UK, Winston : *scratch head* okkkay. finally a video doesnt involve british. love it. but it also shows how hard to play a minor with every passing expansion. so many toys added but not enough time/resources/industry, unless you want to play until 2000
The article 193 of the Belgian constitution states that Belgium adopts the colors Red, Yellow, and Black) in fact your current flag is not in the right direction 😅 5:12
I did this path (less well, but I managed to survive) - and you're better off not bothering with Denmark. They surrender immediately in any war - they even surrender to capitulated Germany for goodness sake.
5:04 This is what I as a German feel when I look at the German Democratic Flags from Götterdämmerung. One is a discolored German Civil Flag with a Prussian Eagle (Which makes no sense unless you have no idea about German History) and the other is a Nordic Flag (Wirmer Flag but different?) which is absolutely childishly non-sensical and entirely stupid. I even made a Mod on Steam that changes those Flags to sensical ones.
Kinda feels like the memery of the little Entente stuff but apparently better because money is funneled into Brussel. Also at 34:28 with Brazil in the EU, does that mean you signed the Mercosur ?
I was just watching a isorrow video where he played democratic Germany and formed the eu and at the end he said he will go more in depth with the eu in another video when he plays Belgium and I went back to the you tube Home Screen and the first video to appear was this one

Ok i call bs. Ive been playing a bunch of Belgium runs and the Czech have always been fully annexed by germany regardless if they were in a faction or not. U changed the Czech settings didnt u....I've learned it's a waste of pp to get them in the faction for European union because they let the Germans take the sudetenland everytime and then get annexed

I clearly chose the wrong week to upload my utterly failed historical run :( forgive me, I have failed you
I was searching for your comment and got it. 😅 We need historical Luxembourg division video now😅
I knew I'd see you here
Thank you for your service my good sir
Helicopter only when? You could use the helicopter battalion mod
Its alright Aldrahill we still love you 😢
Bittersteel: RUclipsr, Father, HOI4 Player, Warhammer fanatic, Established Belgium Nationalist.
Peak male
Sounds more like a patriot than a nationalist
You didnt protect estonia when estonia needed you the most. Estonian people will never forget the belgian betrayal.
5:22 That Belgian flag is an actual real flag. It is from 1789 and it was used by the short lived United belgian states.
you are correct, also used by the brabant revolution that formed said united Belgian states
Lol cool.
23:10 Hungary being stupid and ruining EU
Thats extremely accurate lmao
How many Belgium videos are you gonna make in the future?
YES
@@Bitt3rSteel Totally agree
All of them.
@@Bitt3rSteelI like that
Add the Congo to there too, as it and Belgium are apparently, somehow the least played nations in the new DLC
(Apart from ones that didn't get any major updates, of course)
@Bitt3rSteel i was waiting fornthat
The true gigachad of this run is Aussa, who went to war with a world-spanning European Union, took out all their holdings in east Africa and got away scot-free
"We've got everyone in except for Denmark"
Spain crying in the corner
Everyone (important) except for denmark
24:00 HORTHY STOP EATING YOUR ALLIES! -Bitt3rsteel
Best quote I’ve heard all year

Good work on this DLC! Loving it so far
Will one be able to get rid of Corruption? Because so far you cant get rid of it when you go democratic.
I'm not sure if this is entirely true but I once met a Belgian who told me that to be an officer in the Belgian military you have to be quadrilingual; you have to speak French, Dutch and German because these are the official languages of Belgium and they may be the native language of any of your subordinates.

Belgium is my favourite joke.
haha
That's very smart
looks like @Bitt3rSteel saw @Aldrahill recent video and said
"fine I will do it myself"
Hail to Belgium!
I was actually trying do a custom game playing as democratic alt-history Germany into a world full of everyone being democratic or alt democratic, or as close to democratic as possible.
I still lost the civil war due to bad micro.
Skill issue
@ Very much so.
You saved democracy in a game that treats democracy as a weakness? Nice
41:49 do you know what else is massive... LOW TAPER FADE
European Union formed in 1937 by Spaak and Eva Braun with an eye patch were definitely NOT on my bingo card this month :D Greetings from Brussel!
24:00
Sir Humphrey: It's a game played for national interests and always was.
9:41 "a fine addition to my collection" a wise clanker said
HORTHY WHAT ARE YOU DOING, STOP EATING YOUR ALLIES!!! that was ultra funny
Apart from Baden and Franken those are some good post war borders, Poland even got their modern day borders
I love that even after paradox broke the peace deals even more, they sat on their asses and didn't do anything to fix this mess. Player led peace conferences is always and will always be a necessity
Aldra lost when playing Belgium and you will avenge Belgium
The EU, protecting "Democracy", oh dear the amount of things I can say might land me in hot waters in some of its member countries...
This is cursed, absolutely so cursed...
Well done 😂

its isnt? 😢
thumbnail Belgium lacks Eupen-Malmedy, bittersteel is a German Monarchist confirmed???
Go for the Exile Path, you have yet to disappoint :)
The irony that the EU works better without the UK
Best part of the week is when Bittersteel posts.
new bittersteel vid yay
The modern EU doesn't suck. It does have its problems, but as a whole, it has a positive impact on the world.
Will you make a video on The Fire Rises? It has some EU paths, but no Belgium content sadly.
Very enjoyable haha. Never knew where it was going
1939 endsieg be like 💀
I was today in Bastogne for the 80 year anniversary and on the same day Bittersteel unifies Europe as Belgium...i dont think this is a coincidence lol
I did this path (less well, but I managed to survive) - and you're better off not bothering with Denmark. They surrender immediately in any war - they even surrender to capitulated Germany for goodness sake.
Belgium is weird because it's the most voluntarily divided nation in the West, if not the World.
Pillarization works in heterogeneous societies.
Hopefully your EU game goes better than my first attempt!
isn't this because of Adrahill's Video?
When is the monarchist belgium coming out?
Insert jokes about “The Dam(ned) Modifier!”
When playing Belgium I like to alternate between the Military and Political branch so that I don't get hit by the weekly stab penalty for very long.
You should play that Germany against the EU!...
Lol Bitter gets so mad at Degrelle for being one of the only Belgians who saw the reality in 1940 and risked his life to defend Europe from communism
will subtitles ever come back?
That's up to Google, sadly
5:04 This is what I as a German feel when I look at the German Democratic Flags from Götterdämmerung.

Every possible path want see from Belgium with your lead man!
You don't want to evacuate your troops, you want to evacuate Germany. Evacuating troops would be disgusting😅😂
29:00 thats how i feel about switzerland
A PIMPLE ON THE FACE OF EUROPE
Kinda feels like the memery of the little Entente stuff but apparently better because money is funneled into Brussel. Also at 34:28 with Brazil in the EU, does that mean you signed the Mercosur ?
What if bitter steel was called sweet wood and made disaster saves instead of fixing them
Ah yes, the history of World War 2 according to the Eurozone.
LETS GO BELGIUM LETS GO! 🇧🇪🔥🇧🇪🔥🇧🇪🔥
I despise how much HOI4 stuff is locked behind pre game RNG…
I was just watching a isorrow video where he played democratic Germany and formed the eu and at the end he said he will go more in depth with the eu in another video when he plays Belgium and I went back to the you tube Home Screen and the first video to appear was this one
Love your vids🎉❤
ultraliberal based belgian volt voter bitt3rsteel was not on my bingo card
Be historical Belgium! We need to see the surrender!
27:31 my favorite moment of the video
Ahhh Spaak. Not spock . Shame. With him you would live long and prospe
Bittersteel belgium videos > anything else
Give all hands for Belgium!
horthy must have a bit of orban in him
Wait, this is not the Kaiserin as advertised two weeks ago
Never had this much luck with inviting to the EU so far 🤯🤯
When will you do a guide for Germany?
As a Brit i found this horrifying.
Man I just wanna know what’s that song in the first minute
Ah yes the resurgence of Pax Belgica into Eroupa be like 🇧🇪🗿👌😎👍💀✊:
Glory to Belgium! voor vorst, la loi, und geschutz!
Japan is not real pain is not real I repeat Japan is not real
Big Beautiful Poland

Bitt3rSteel I am going to get HOI4 soon, what should be my First Nation?
6:51 Que Europapa.
Albania world conquest when?
Even in this timeline, Ukraine still isn't in the EU. SADGE 😔
In the next 2 years were gonnan get spain and portugal dlc

I think you chose the wrong thumbnail... that one uses TGWR maps
Saviour and Bastion of democracy is a oxymoron
Based
You lose the defense guy too when you go fascist. RIP
Lore of The European Union sucks, so I made it better momentum 100
nice gaming as always, but i gotta say, monarchis belgium is boring af, same as doing the exiled path for poland and ethiopia
The Chads and Stacys of Belgium defeating Germany and not even mobilising their industry is absolutely based
No mather what univers. Hungary will always rebel against the greater goals of Europe
Ok i call bs. Ive been playing a bunch of Belgium runs and the Czech have always been fully annexed by germany regardless if they were in a faction or not. U changed the Czech settings didnt u....I've learned it's a waste of pp to get them in the faction for European union because they let the Germans take the sudetenland everytime and then get annexed
That whole intro was just the description of Liberia
So when is artillery only Liberian World domination?
Just saying
yo i think u misspelt the title
Hmmm, I wonder what country you live in?
why barely any comment?
Why u dislike hero leon degrelle?
Monarchy
I refuse to spend any more money on this game. What´s the point of a mappainter that consistently paints HORRIBLE maps.
So Horthy=Orban? 😂😂😂😂
pls do communist congo😄
Yay flag mods. 😉
