    Certainly not your most "wild" campaign per se, but still, this is extremely entertaining! As Brandenburg, vassalize Beloozero (release them or something from Muscovy) and then turn into Beloozero, that would be the most chad way to play as Beloozero.

    Brabant, Brandenburg, and Brazil all start with "Bra." Since Brabant didn't get to form Brazil, now it's Brandenburg's turn to form Brazil.
    And of course, getting a bankruptcy on the side is a given.

    Get the Zulus as a march so you can be Militirization Mechanics March Mates.
    You can do this by colonizing Nguni cultured provines, but removing the colonist before completion so the religion+culture doesn't change, (events adding colonists also don't change culture/faith) giving you enough unrest to spawn sepratists.

    Pro-tip as a Dutch/Flemish minor: since AE is so high in the HRE, try to take as much land as possible in the independence war, prioritizing centers of trade.
    Then, once you're independent, get an improve relations advisor, set your merchants to establish communities, and declare some humiliation wars. Get the Age objective in the first one, and then show strength on subsequent ones, for tons of monarch points and Power Projection (Big PP also gives more mana) while you wait for AE to die down. Any allies of the main war target can be milked for cash and war reps, along with trade power. This way, by the time your AE burns out, you'll be ahead on tech, and stinking rich, ready to grab more land without a problem.

  • @nukalegend
    @nukalegend 2 года назад

    My favorite thing to do as a dutch minor is get France and England to support your independence. Burgundy has a chance to just release you without a war. The upside about this is Burgundy won't be hostile and will be friendly, allowing you to royal marry and push for the inheritance.

    • @nukalegend
      @nukalegend 2 года назад

      My other favorite way is to start as Friesland (who's a peasant republic) and liberate the lowlands. Upside to this is that you'll be way ahead of the government reforms then your monarchy counterparts when you get the Orangist and Statist.
