The challenge is to play as France and restore Napoleon's power. We will have to take all the land he ruled, puppet everyone he puppeted, and defeat his enemies. That means we need to take the Benelux, parts of Italy, parts of Yugoslavia, a bit of Spain and a chunk of Germany. We will also need to puppet a few countries and defeat the United Kingdom and the Soviet Union. Unfortunately the game does not allow you to bring in a descendant or relative of Napoleon to rule France, but hopefully we can bring back his spirit.
Rules:
- Play as France
- Restore all the posessions of the French Empire under Napoleon
- Do NOT annex anything else
- Puppet everyone France had as a client state then
- More puppets are allowed
- Defeat UK and USSR
- Ironman
What did I do wrong, what did I do right? What should my next challenge be, if any. Let me know in the comments.

Short
As Liberia you must puppet the US as a democracy. You can puppet someone under a different ideology, change said ideology to democracy, then puppet the us. Liberia is under the radar unlike Afghanistan so you won't get demonotized.
inb4 that 1 pretend intellectual who thinks he's super duper smart by seeing some vid how napoleon wasn't AHCTUAALY SHORT 4 HIS TIME
British propaganda
K I know I shouldn't shot on the joke but he actually was averaged sized at the time and it actually was British propaganda. Anyways besides that have a nice day! :)
elso He wasn't average for his time he was average full stop it was a difference between British and French measurements
The laugh when Finland had taken most of Russia was great.

Hearts of Iron 4 Challenge: Finland takes the USSR without doing anything.
@Ali Fuat Thé Baron :-DDDD
They did something, they joined the faction
finally someone uses germany as a shortcut to get to another country, the belgians know this feeling all too well
Just today, the Germans stormed through my house, to be pushed back by French and British troops. This happened three times already, and is only 10:30 am.
Staf Verstegen 3 times already in history?
Not in history, but in my joke :)
Although you could say even more than tree times, if you count the times they invaded this region earlier in history.
ur mum gay
Play as Finland and conquer Japan. I dare you.
Are you referencing the "Finland is fake" conspiracy?
I think hes refrencing the Finno-Korean Hyper War
Hes just going through the Soviet Union ez

A reference to the attempted mongol invasions of Japan perhaps?
Stays on civilian economy till 1940 the absolute madman

Lands in Britain
Take the Ottoman Empire
Takes all of Africa
Beats Russia

You should revisit this challenge. Napoleon's return from Elba:
Starting in 1939, capitulate as France but maintain your holdings in Corsica (or Africa, if Corsica isn't possible). Invade Vichy France to signify your return from Elba, rebuild the Grand Armee, and defeat the Axis (specifically Germany who would represent Prussia and Austria), the Comintern (specifically the Soviet Union who would represent Tsarist Russia), and the Allies (specifically the United Kingdom who represents themselves).
Mainland forces (units starting in or created in continental Europe) must remain in the mainland.
THEN GET EXILED TO ST HELENA

8:06 Execute order 66
In French: Exécutez l'ordre 66
Taureor: *Retakes old Napoleonic Wars borders*
Me: Wait what about Napoleon's coloni-
*Checks the map*
Oh wait never mind
It feels really good to fulfill a request about the man who liberates your country eh, Taureor?
I shall request again my challenge for the next month.
1. Play as Dutch East Indies
2. Break the chains by undergoing a communist civil war
3. Reform the Thalassocracy
4. Liberate the whole South East Asia including East Timor, Burma, and Mandalay
5. Form the "SEA Commune" faction with the whole SEA
Rules:
- Ironman Mod, Regular difficulty, and Historical AI Focuses
- You can first join the Comintern if you feel didn't strong enough
- You also may help Thai People's Repulic to Strenghten the Rattanakosin Heritage by giving them Indochina. Just make Myanmar by giving Burma and Mandalay to any stateless Indochinese country tags such as Laos or Vietnam. Give East Timor to Indonesia or make it a separate country by giving it to statelss Indochinese country tags too
- Release the video on November 12th 2018
Have fun. November 12th is less than a month from now. I believe you can do this since you can make Tannu Tuva annex the Soviet Union.
Man, it should be specific because there are currently 10 countries in South East Asia, while there's only 7 nation tags there: Indonesia, Malaysia, Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos, Philippines, and Thailand.
There's no Burma tag. So, Burma and Mandalay should be managed by another tag. Laos and Cambodia have tags, both states are needed by Thailand to Strenghten the Rattanakosin Heritage, so Cambodia can manage Mandalay and Burma as 'Myanmar'.
Vietnam aren't needed by Thailand, we can make them their own country with 2 states: Tonkin and Southern Indochina.
About East Timor, either it gets annexed to Soviet Islands of Indonesia, or Laos should manage it as 'Timor Leste'.
There's no Brunei and Singapore state, only Malay Peninsula (which is named Singapore) and North Borneo. Well, both are certainly annexed though as a part of my challenge for Taureor....
So the states at the end results are: Democratic Majapahit Socialist Republic, Rattanakosin Socialist State, East Timor (managed by Lao People's Democratic Republic), Myanmar (managed by People's Republic of Cambodia), Huk Community of Philippines, and Democratic Republic of Vietnam.
To be honest i'm far more intrigued with HoI3 and Kaiserreich's political system. It's more complex and realistic than this simplistic 4-ideology system.
November 12th is celebrated as Indonesian Anti-Colonialism Day in my country.
The origin of the day is from the first nation-wide rebellion against Dutch Colonial Government by Communist Party of Indonesia in November 12th 1926.
That's why i want Taureor to make DEI independent first by undergoing a communist civil war before liberate the whole SEA from those imperialists.
And that's why i narrow down the upload day. But if Taureor didn't want to, well, it's okay. It's his right to fully accept my challenge.
He wouldn’t be able to hand land to stateless indochinese countries if he’s playing on Ironman. Ironman disables console commands. This challenge is pretty bad :P
1. Puppet Laos and Cambodia when the peace conference come
2. Pray the Soviets didn't take Mandalay, Burma, and East Timor in the next turn
3. If the Soviets didn't, give Mandalay and Burma to Cambodia, then East Timor to Laos
Note: I hope it's easy for him. Because i just want him to drive off any colonizer from South East Asia. Indonesia did not have to directly annex more land beyond British Malaya. The war score should be more than enough.
Challenge idea:
Restore the Egyptian Empire at its greatest height
Restore the Macedonian Empire
Restore the Achemedid empire at its height.
Release macedonia and restart the macedonian empire
Egypt wouldn’t be that good. Just would be British Egypt and Sudan, and some of the Middle East. You release Egypt and the most of the challenge is over
@@awildfilingcabinet6239 you do realise that Egypt didn't owned all of Sudan, right? And they owned a bit of Libya and only parts of the Levant. Not all of Western Asia.
Which Egyptian empire?
Coffee Succubus that’s essentially the same challenge with various difficulty levels
I like how you're going with the historical borders with this one keep going.
A nearly 40min Taureor video for me to watch right before I'm going to bed?

Taureor polish maskuline man: Italy might take something but that is fine.
Finlandia: Dont mind if i do with my 23 victory score m8.
Taureor: oh, OHHH. Thats a MISTAKE
I JUST GOT A BAGUETTE IN MY PANTS FROM SEEING THIS GLORIOUS MAP
clickbait, you forgot the small island to the right of spain
The Far invasion challenge :
As any European country, conquer Japan without :
-Conquering any other country
-Request Millitary Access
-Create/Invite faction. (You can join faction)
Then he can just join the Chinese united front, or he can join the comintern or he can play as france and go from Indochina, or play as UK and go from any of his puppets in the pacific, or he can play as germany or Italy and just join the greater east Asian co prosperity sphere and do order 66. This challenge is very doable very easily.
Also the USSR counts as an european country
A much better idea would be the Scramble for Asia - play as any European country with a unique focus tree, go monarchist, create your own faction/keep your existing one (so no joining the Chinese United Front or GEACPS and Order 66ing China/Japan) puppet/ally with all other European countries that had colonial empires (i.e., UK, France, Spain - if he wanted to use a mod that gave a country that currently doesn't have one a focus tree for this challenge, he is more than welcome to), and conquer all of Asia (excluding Mongolia) that isn't already taken by the European colonial powers (the Chinese warlords, Japan, Siam, Tibet, Nepal, Bhutan, and Japan's two Chinese puppets), dividing the land up between your allies/puppets (everyone has to take land directly - you can keep existing puppets as is, but no puppeting new countries; i.e., he could keep the Raj whole, but he cannot puppet China).
Considering he hasn't touched the King's Party path for the UK, I could see that being a good idea (he'd only need to puppet Spain and France; he could join the Axis), or he could go for Macau My Day on a large scale
30:18
Yes, The area is now called Bangladesh and it has a majority muslim population, reason why they wanted to be away from India after the Raj was dissolved. I believe it was released as a part of Pakistan but soon broke away as an independent nation due to it's distance from the rest of Pakistan.
@@dravda9338 oh well those peoples massacred each others since the begining of time...theyre just able now to kill more because of foreign civilised thecnology but beside that its business as usual

Taureor napoleon actually owned the Louisiana territory until he sold it to America
@@szher8540 What? Napoleon III wasn't even alive when Louisiana was sold.
CYKA BLYAT lol (In agreement with you)
@@agentpyro2350 Pretty sure that means something along the line of “fuck you”
The British actually agreeing to joining you in the early war against Germany for the militarization of the Rhineland is actually a super rare event and most of the time they reject to rally behind you.
He should try this again with new focus for house of bonopart.
Taureor:We have to betray our good friend Italy.
Italy:Imagine swaping sides.
Couldnt be me.
Very minor, and very late, correction. Denmark was not a subject of Napoleonic France, but it was aligned with it, and therefore suffered at the hands of the British in one of history's first naval rocket bombardments.
France: *declares war on Italy*
Italy: *joins Japans faction*
Japan: *sweats and shits bricks*
Sir, it appears the rest of our forces have capitulated everyone we were fighting against.
Taureor: Time to beat up someone else
Should restore Charlemagne’s Empire.
Viking Challenge:
Play as Norway
Conquer all Viking lands (Denmark, Sweden, Iceland, Greenland, UK, Ireland)
Must go to war with nazi Germany in 1940
Must defeat Russia (because Kieran rus were probably Vikings)
kievan rus were kind of Vikings but nah
Yeah, Rurik, a viking founded Kievan Rus, though of course much of the population was Slavic and soon even the viking nobility integrated culturally.
Novgorod republic is more Viking that Kievan rus, dude
But Denmarn Conquered Norway and Sweden?
30:21
Yes Pakistan (here called the Mughal Empire due to the fact that they were sorta the de facto proto Pakistani nation) did originally have Bangladesh because it was another Muslim part of India. Pakistan was meant to be for the Muslim Indians after India separated from Britain, and India was meant for the Hindus mostly, but also other related groups such as the Sikhs. It is for this reason that there used to be a 'west Pakistan' (modern Pakistan), and 'east Pakistan' (Bangladesh). Bangladesh later got Independence however due to largely logistical errors caused by the odd separation, among other issues.
25:32 when u call your friends but accidentally call the whole world
I really enjoyed watching the creation and use of all those puppets. It's like you created an army of minions!
Nobody:
Taureor: Hello guys, today we are going to annex Russia as Tannu Tuva
With Greece having them as an ally is great as they always seem to invade half way round the world. In one of my games I was playing as Germany and the Soviets were very powerful so it was a stalemate. Then Greece who was Italy’s puppet launched a naval invasion in the Caucasus and Siberia allowing the Axis to pump divisions into those landing spots and only 5 months later the Soviets capitulated.
Nobody:Ha I destroyed Russ-
Taureor:Hold my Vodka
*Invades whole planets*
32:18 oh... I was not expecting that from the fins
As New Zealand:
- Break free from Britain
- Form a Polynesian Empire
- Conquer all of Polynesia inclusive Melanesia and Fiji
25:55 I wouldn't say liberation, more like under new management.
Taureor: here lets give some land to italy... Finland: YOU MEAN ME, RIGHT?
This video was great! I love that you usel puppet states instead of creating a Big blob
Taureor: Says Denmark was a subject
Their danish allies: Cries in "red sausage"
Haha! It's kinda funny when Germany chickens out on the Rhineland challenge.
i love this channel, you put a lot of effort t make sure that the challenge is complete and you deserve more views
Him: we can only take the dark blue
Him 2 sec later: let’s go after Britain
How many pupets you want?
Taureor:YES
15:05 i was screaming
*_"yOu FoRgOt ThE dUtCh EaSt InDiEs!1!?! tHeY'rE a MaJoR tOo!!11"_*
21:21 oh
You should try the “demand it!” mod, it changes the game alot, by making a very small change, being able to demand states from other nations.
I laughed my ass off when I saw the giant Finland and you realized you forgot they were still al war with USSR. 😂😂😂
The Spiffing Brit is hosting a Hoi4 Tournament, I would love to see you win!!! Please sign up!
You should do EU4 challenges like stopping the protestant reformation. I love HOI4 and all but it's getting a little bit old. No offense, i just wanna see your channel grow and new content. If not then oh well, i will watch anyway.
Not a clue how to play EU4 but it'd be enjoyable as HOI IV only has so many ideas left.
That's glad to see!
It's glad to see your name penetrate some of the recommended videos.
Wuuu you made it so much like Napoleon that you destroyed the magnificent French Navy just like him
*clears throat* restore Commonwealth again to honor ancestors
I love you're voice, so much. So how did I find this channel? Funny story.
I was up for almost 2 days already and I couldn't sleep cause of insomnia. So I decided to play hoi4 and watch other youtubers like drew, alex , tommy and ISP. And when I found this channel, the first thing that caught my ears was your voice and how relaxing it was. Amazing! :D
That move on Finland's part was double ironic. Well played, Finland.
keep up the good work of taking over the world through video games
Yes some Taureor before I go to sleep
But he uploads when i'm just awake today....
Well, good thing for an Indonesian apparently. :3
I'm amazed you did most of that with a civilian economy! Amazing.
Ur voice is soooooo soothing. Ur vids are great 10/10 👌 from 🇺🇸 to 🇵🇱
Potential challenge: Jannisary resurgence
Rules
1. Play as turkey
2. No puppets, the ottoman empire does not need vassals.
3. Use only technology the ottomans used historically. No tanks, planes, submarines, or motorized divisions for example. You can iterate on technology historically available, so you can develop superior infantry equipment.
4. Jerusalem, Mecca, and Medina must be seized and held at all costs.
5. Your goal is to conquer as much of the world as you can before the game ends.
Elaboration of allowed technologies:
-You can have artillery, rocket artillery, anti-air, and anti-tank weapons due to the ottomans legacy of excellent artillery.
-You cannot use a signal company, due to their usage of radios
-you cannot use unit types that use motorized equipment, such as logistics, field hospitals, and motorized artillery.
-You cannot have an air force
-All non-carrier ships will be permitted, due to the ottomans having wooden vessels that filled similar roles. This will be filed under iteration, for the sake of playability.
and lose the Russians)
I have bad news for you: www.tanks-encyclopedia.com/Turkish-Tanks.php
"... the Sultan ordered the first armored vehicles of the Turkish Army, four Hotchkiss model 1909..."
Ottoman Empire used some tanks/armoured cars and planes (in very limited numbers, but the technology was known to them). So, your challenge is invalid :P
I have even more bad news for you: the game doesn't actually end ever, there is no end date, it just keeps going, which means that you could theoretically play until 2099 (I think there is actually a date where the game ends but it's actually like 9999 and some players playing as turkey can do a world conquest that ends in like 1955 or earlier so I think that is a lot of time for taureror to conquer as much as he can)
@lukzloty I knew that the ottomans had SOME tanks & planes, but the only ones developed were stolen by the young turks and ww1 to the start date the ottomans/turks relied on purchased tanks. The point of the challenge is to bring back jannisary style ottoman power, no imported tech or maning anything that they didn't historically create themselves. And while I know that did have radios, they didn't make them themselves (AFAIK). And if they did, making a challenge themed around pre-young turk ottoman empire is so much more fun.
@NicTheBeast There is no end date, but every game ends. Whether it ends because he loses or gets bored, that's irelevant to the challenge. I'm sorry for not being clear on that.

Annex Mongolia as Paraguay.
No attacking anyone outside South America, except Mongolia.
Any Ideology.
No faction.
BenTheMaster Gaming and More! Impossible
This is old, now if you leave units in a former faction country they immediately go into 'exile' mode and you cannot just take over Britain like this.
It's always a good day when taureor does another challenge
Conquer all of Europe as Ethiopia without using Road to 54 mod or any other mod, or dlcs. Just ordinary HOI4
Why no Dlcs?
Alexander Schikor To make it harder.
DLCs dont make the game easier
If anything, DLCs make the game harder, as they add more features to keep track of. DLCs aren't like mods. Also, a lot less shit happens, because half of the nations that have focus trees now won't have focus trees on a run without DLCs
NicTheBeast Exactly. In ordinary HOI4, Ethiopia is average and is probably more disadvantaged because its facing a "major power".it's not that hard to make ethiopia great, but its harder with no mods or DLCs
32:22 best moment of this video😂
Fun fact Hitler told his troops to go into the Rhineland and to retreat if the allies retaliated irl so the response he got in game makes sense
Denmark was not a puppet it was an ally
this man deserves more subscribers
Awesome video as usual Taureor, still I personally disapprove of Order 66 for obvious reasons.
Yes, Pakistan AKA the New Mughal Empire is supposed to look like that. Since the British Raj historically was more or less divided for religious reasons, and Bangladesh was predominantly Muslim, it was originally part of Pakistan. Bangladesh became an independent country later on.
when germany steps down from remilitarizing rhineland... but you actually wanted the excuse to invade
that's true disappointment.
edit : "we wouldn't be napoleon if we didn't beat up rissia, would we?" um... actually, that _would_ make you a napoleon...
I recommend you do the cavalry only as mother russia just to bring back the Cossack tradition back to where it should be. (The Cossack Challenge) I would love to see the Cossacks triumph against every European nation that will eat every human they come across
Play as iceland, u must use road to 56 and annex uk. U can join any factions but u are not allowed to annex other countryes(instead uk) but to puppet them.
france and Britain: show a backbone
hitler: oof
Jesus your voice could stop wars!!!!!!
In the start of the napoleonic wars Napoleon had colonies in the united States but sold the land to the usa to have enough money for a British naval invasion which never happend Bc of a naval battle in southern spain, where the British naval general did a new naval tactic not seen before which won the battle but Also took his life which made him a legend. I dont remember his name tho lol.
