As much as I want to sympathize... You guys did pick Charlemagne over Constantinople :P Had very good reasons to, but you did still plant that seed in France's mind ;)

A youtuber recently explained why Napoleon was very close to win the napoleonic wars and it was a real historical possibility. Portugal 🇪🇸 was full of rebels supporterd by Britain 🇬🇧 through Portugal 🇵🇹 So Napoleon instead if invading Russia should have first crushed the rebellion in Spain with that huge army.
Hey laith, love your Vic 3 content, I would really love to see a "divide and rule" through economics, where you dismantle other empires and nations into smaller states in wars, but Never puppet or conquer anyone, but create an extreme immigration attraction from those states you break up and get into your customs union, maybe try and get universal suffrage, schooling and multiculturalism really quickly. A "fun" end goal would be a nation with the best standard of living and by a LARGE margin the greatest economic power, where most other "great-powers" are broken-up remnants of their former selves. Dismantle the world into smaller nations and get them all into your customs union, then get most to immigrate into your nation while the rest are just resource providers for your industry...
"Last time the White House was burnt down by the British, well the Canadians." As a proud Canadian, I can assure you that it was the British :p Not just because the Canadians were British at the time, but because the attack on Washington, D.C. was a naval invasion conducted by British troops arriving from Europe after taking part in the Battle of Waterloo.
I dont know if you are reading this but having units as reinforcements in fights can help you win battles because you get the full barracks recruitment and training bonus meaning that you dont run out of men in battles and dont take huge amounts of morale damage.
21:36 Having the British convoy raid you for 5 years tends to make supplying overseas troops somewhat difficult. And there's no land route to Portugal because Spain isn't a war participant.
To see the generals better. Go to the left open the outliner settings tab. You can click generals from there, without anything ever obstructing it. Or there is the mod to shift notifications left a bit until it doesn’t get in the way anymore. But I find it too ugly.
34:56 I think that's happened because Scottish industry in Great Britain overtook the English part considering you stole England off them. Aka it probably switched the priority of the flags on the GB flag depending on which part is the most developed in the nation. You taking England switched the flag to prioritise Scotland.
I think it's the second time you have an "Achille" with France, and in France the "Ch" is pronounce like "sh" in shop. Great game by the way, happy to see France that great !
Love the vid as always - FYI when notifications pop-up over info, you can scroll down Also there's a small, graphics only, mod which moves to notifications so they don't cover the info
Just to let you know, when launching two naval invasions at the same time, an enemy navy can only intercept one at a time. Might be OP (certainly makes Britain easy to crush), but...up to you whether you'd want to do it or not anyway. These videos will still be fun to watch regardless~
Try the notifications filter mod to deal with the nonstop pointless notification spam, it has different levels of filter and it helps a ton. I had to go looking for mods when I could not click on my generals or admirals like you did
Good luck with the Greece run if you decide to do it. Whenever i play a nation that borders them they ally France or join their market, but if i play anything else they hate each other
I think Greek into Byzantium into Rome would be a great idea. I just thought that France was a bit to powerfull as a starting Nation. I still enjoyed it, but you know we want to see you struggle. So how about Greek into Byzantium with no Major Power allies?
48:50 AFAIK, you need to have an interest in wherever their capital is to be able to use the humiliation wargoal. Which is stupid, but there’s a LOT of stupid stuff about warfare in this game.
44:00 I understand, I have to use mod to filter the notification, they're so annoying. 47:55 I got this issue before and I found a solution on Reddit. You click set term to white peace first, then you can propose the peace deal again.
34:00 - I think the flag changed bc Scotland was now the primary state of the UK so the White X of Scotland is in the forefront. but now i am curious what symbolizes Wales in the flag. Red Cross/white background of England, and the white X/Blue background of Scotland
If you want to use the humiliation war goal then you need to have the target nation as a rival. You can do this by pressing the "Declare rivalry" button in diplomacy
man, i love vic 3, but i just cant play war ive made SO MANY bug reports already on not being able to peace etc like you had there is no reason why i shouldnt just be able to renegotiate wargoals during/at the end of the war either
It is day 66 of asking you to do Croatia challenge in VIC3 (Become free from the rule of austria - then you cannot ally them, russians, serbians, ottomans and montenegro, you also cannot trade with them (embargo them and rival them). First form Yugoslavia restore old borders from that country then form Danubian state, all while staying monarchy thats the set of rules you must follow.
I did this but I got every state for Rome. If someone else wants to do this, I would recomend bankrolling Prussia, Russia, and Austria until you have oblogations. After that go straight for the Ottomans because they can easily become Unreconized and unpuppetable.

You don’t need to worry so much about debt, economically speaking a high level of national debt is ok, you can always pause construction/ raise taxes if you really need to. Also you should always subsidise railway, if they fail you lose all infrastructure and your economy will collapse
