What if Asia instead of Europe colonized the Americans. Maybe force the East Asians to take exploration and force the Europeans not to, not sure how you do that but it would be cool.
This has got to be one of the funniest videos on this channel yet. I completely lost it in a few spots. "Oman is a square." "Ivory Coast has no coast." "9th American change government form of Brazil"
President: as we all know my predecessor failed their foolish terribly planned war on Brazil, so as for my first act as president, I say WAR, as a veteran from the third Brazilian war I know the land and can effectively lead troops into victory -mr president president, on the eve of the 5th Brazilian war.
All of you have got to be kidding! You're all talking about what will happen in 50 years as if! Oh the US will ban handguns by 2035? Buddy, the fog is gonna consume us by 2027. The fog is coming. The fog is coming. The fog is coming.
When you're trying to figure out if a nation exists, look at a province they have a core on. Their flag will be gray if they're dead, or colored if they're alive (in which case you click on the core and open their diplo screen)
Turkish language is relative with Japan language. On the same language tree (Transeurasian)... We are (I'm Turkish) relative with Japans and all Turkic cultures like Kyrgyz, Kazakh, Turkmen, Azerbaijanian, Tatar, Uzbek, all Altais, even Etruks (Roman Empire's ancestors), Hungarians, Bulgarians, Yakuts, Tuvas etc... But NOT relatives with Mongols and/or Arabs as mentioned in some games. On the other hand, we have the same language tree with Mongols too, but, again, we are not relatives with them. Genghis Khan's mother was Turkish, so people think that we are relatives but not. I don't care about races but just mentioning to make it clear.
But Red Hawk, did USA finally change Brazilian government? As for next scenario - maybe reduce all countries to their capital. Give everyone a colonist and maybe colony maintenace discount modifier for couple decades. No need to remove vassals - liberty desire is a thing, so let's observe how France and Timmies are doing with their subjects. For science.
What he can do is giving them Siberian frontiers so it’ll be easier and faster for them to expand. Zlewikk made a multiplayer with this and that’s dope. You should check it out
Same here. Was playing eu2 for over 10 years and skipped eu3 entireley. And then I started watching Hawk and bought eu4 and by now i already put a few hundred hours into the game. Already got so many achievements and so much fun times. Thanks to the Hawk. Big love Mate. Thx for all the entertainment.
@@mcr-1266 even with a good pc, if you are blobbing too much or if there is too much change (big war and 10millions deaths in one battle) the game will crash. I learned it the hard way while I was doing a challenge of conquering China with Taiwan. At the end of a war with China, in the 22th century, I took half of their country and the game crashed.
Based on the fact that they were getting the dev added, they must have somehow passed a bunch of reforms super fast and got to the vassal swarm point, but never got further.
The European Union has it's parliament in Bruxelles. Could it be that's why Belgium is the "Overlord" of the EU? That would be pretty OP and a mistake.
Yes!!! We avons das finallement gedaan! Vive la Belgique! Lang leve België! At last our plans have reached fruition! We have become THE GREATEST NATION IN THE WORLD! …in a video game. I mean…look guys. I don’t know how many of you live in the US, but this is an achievement to us. …also it’s nice to see “Belgium” stamped onto those neighbours who’ve kept invading us throughout history. I’m looking at you, France, Germany and even our Dutch Benelux brothers. *does the double fingery “watching you” sign* This map is a statement. Remember it. Concordia res parvae crescunt!
USA was typical in this game: always in conflict with someone in south america, never succeeds x) But poor poor brazil, my home country, at least 9 times bullied by the US :(
It doesn't even make sense, because Belgium is only the "capital" and compared to France or Germany doesn't have that much influence in the EU. The EU definitely wasn't reworked very well.
"Australia just chillin, except they're a military dictatorship... Seems about right now in the 2020's." - US: So what resources do you have over there ...mate? - Australia: Pretty much coal. - US: OK you're safe, chill. - China: Did someone say coal? I better wrap up this India war. Get the shovels comrades.
Very good scenario! I really wanted Belgium to centralize the EU but they never did well I guess it would actually make them weaker since they lose the vassal swarm.
As a Swede I’m okay with Norway taking us over. At least they aren’t Denmark. EDIT: Never mind, we’re Estonian now and also we now own more of Norway than Norway. EDIT 2: Oh, RIP Norway. EDIT 3: DENMARK IS GONE 🦀🦀🦀
This was a very interesting video to see how the stats of today's world would play out, but I've gotta say that your commentary took it to the next level. Great video!
That last recap was like watching a doctor describe a bunch of minor cuts (everywhere but Europe) on a body with a bloody stump where the head was supposed to be (B E L G I U M)
I was sad there was no "Greece went back to Constantinople" after they did. Also, Spain and Turkey migrated into North Africa lol. Spain was just an OPM and Turkey became Egypt.

What if natives were in Europe and Europeans were in the new world. That would be such a mess lol
@@CaptainGen that would be funny
What if everyone had the same dynasty
“The Belgian world conquest has begun”
The DRC: *sweats nervously*
Wait? Its all Belgium?
Always has been...
We didn't start the fire...
This has got to be one of the funniest videos on this channel yet. I completely lost it in a few spots.
"Oman is a square."
"Ivory Coast has no coast."
"9th American change government form of Brazil"
It was like clockwork. Must have surely been ceremonial at some point. 50 years have passed? Declare on Brazil.
President: as we all know my predecessor failed their foolish terribly planned war on Brazil, so as for my first act as president, I say WAR, as a veteran from the third Brazilian war I know the land and can effectively lead troops into victory
-mr president president, on the eve of the 5th Brazilian war.
It's crazy to think that this game just predicted the next 300 years
Lmao
Brazil will be a princedom!!!
Warning to the UK: when you leave the EU, you WILL be conquered by Belgium! 😅
@@ZetaArcticana4006 You keep saying that, America. It's never going to happen.

Also if you hover over the nation’s flag (even if it doesn’t exist anymore) the provinces which they have cores on will be highlighted
17:36 Turkey ruled by Padishah Ieyoshi Yamato. The Japanese stealth conquest of the world in action.
Lol truee
The final ruler of Taiwan/Xia is also a Yamato.
Japan going for that PU on a country on the other side of Asia. Well, in northern Africa at the end, lol.
I think Turkey had a royal marriage with Japan

"You're going to Brazil."
*"No, Brazil is going to YOU!"*
But then, suddenly, a mysterious figure appears, is...
PERU EATING BRAZIL
I mean fight the US while fighting SA, and see how it goes for you buddy
Quebec when it forms Canada after breaking away from them: “We’ve become the very thing we swore to destroy”
That must suck for Portugal. The borders have changed so much. Look at how much smaller they are now.
Yeah true
We are just as small as then, the thing is now we have nowhere to go.
Brazil in 2021: we discover a large reserve of oil hidden in Amazon forest
US: it's democracy time
And then thry fight and lose 9 consecutive wars in the span of 400 years
But Red Hawk, did USA finally change Brazilian government?

Whenever I see red hawk upload, I click, he got me into eu4 best decision ever
Strengthen noble privileges
Thanks for the kind words, welcome to the best EU4 community
Same here. Was playing eu2 for over 10 years and skipped eu3 entireley. And then I started watching Hawk and bought eu4 and by now i already put a few hundred hours into the game.

Hmm
Stolkhome syndrome
Quebec popping out is both the most cursed and also realistic thing I've ever seen
10:00 Not just Poland and the Commonwealth. Lithuania exists as well.
"We are all map staring nerds'' the One sentence that can describe all paradox games' players
Ps great video i really enjoyed it
6:41 "Pretty quiet in Europe" while Poland is screaming in agony due to a Libyan invasion
The USA interfering in Latin American Politics? I guess some things never change.
“US was at war with Brazil. US had always been at war with Brazil.”
Every time I play modern time in eu4 it’s always sooo laggy since everyone has crazy amounts of troops, plus the AE is crazy
Computer thing? I play MT a lot and rarely get lag. Not until like the year 2700 or so.

@@jeneconepalortografe4984 I agree, I have a decent pc and I lag in 2100 when there are too many troops moving on the map (ex Many Nations in Wars)
Crazy AE?
Meanwhile, in real life: Iraq enters the tiny nation of Kuwait. Half the world joins coalition and destroys them.
For me i can run modern time but on extended timeline i crash often.
The EU uses the HRE mechanics so you could have seen if Belgium had passed reforms in the HRE screen.
Based on the fact that they were getting the dev added, they must have somehow passed a bunch of reforms super fast and got to the vassal swarm point, but never got further.
@@kabobawsome Ai being smart and purposely not passing all the reforms, so they can continue to vassal swarm!
@@mrbisshie More likely, whatever crazy method they were using to pass reforms super fast got prevented BY the vassal swarm.
Literally 4 seconds in and it's already unimaginably based.
And cursed
Been waiting for this one! Good job keeping up quality content 👍
Thanks!
hey arent you that rathnir guy?

charles michel is also from belgium and was the eu president but france and germany deff have more say than belgium
Not a mistake just superior B)
*LOL Alaska is "American Canada."*
I love it!

@@aapjeopeenwieler3808 And nothing of value was lost lmao
Iove how Poland was at war with...itself...for abaut 100 years. Thats very realistic
It Was Hilarious Every Time He Said China Expanded Into Manchuria And It Looked The Exact Same
USA was typical in this game: always in conflict with someone in south america, never succeeds x)
But poor poor brazil, my home country, at least 9 times bullied by the US :(
To be fair it would of made more sense saying Middle East or Asia since US actually took out a lot of South American governments.
Well Brazil was invading like all of South America
@@wersab5960 who says an abuser can't also be a victim. (Doesn't make either side right, but still)
Brazilian Government: Exists
The CIA: I took that personally.
Europe would’ve looked interesting if Belgium didn’t have them all as a subject
It doesn't even make sense, because Belgium is only the "capital" and compared to France or Germany doesn't have that much influence in the EU.
The EU definitely wasn't reworked very well.
Belgium: Mad With Power 2: Electric Boogaloo.
USA: a beacon of monarchy in the world.
Sir, you are brilliant, you have surely put a lot of effort in this video, especially preperation.
Thank you :)
I love how Greenland is called Danish Canada 😂
"Australia just chillin, except they're a military dictatorship... Seems about right now in the 2020's."

Very good scenario! I really wanted Belgium to centralize the EU but they never did well I guess it would actually make them weaker since they lose the vassal swarm.
Oof watching now how Russia suddenly has a big coalition against them just hits different
25:34 What did it cost?
Argentina: Everything
20:55 Greece: "We're taking the Byzantine Empire back!"
21:14 I cant explain it but those are the most satisfying Greek borders maybe country borders I've ever seen. Just a perfect sphere of influence.
yes
Mod has a pretty realistic depiction of Monroe doctrine it seems, lol.
As a Swede I’m okay with Norway taking us over. At least they aren’t Denmark.
EDIT: Never mind, we’re Estonian now and also we now own more of Norway than Norway.
EDIT 2: Oh, RIP Norway.
EDIT 3: DENMARK IS GONE 🦀🦀🦀
Actually, denmark government exiled to Greenland 😅
Canada:exists
Brazil:exists
USA: and I took that personally...................murica!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Constantinople in Greek hands! Beautiful lol. I didn't expect it lol.
Another amazing video from my favorite eu4 channel
Glad to hear it!
This video makes me hopeful for the next 300 years
I don’t know why but this whole thing just feels surprising realistic, accurate and plausible.
Ah yes, Belgian world conquest
yeah youre insane
Poland, Lithuania and Commonwealth at the same time? Damn that curse.
Nice video as always.
This was a really good one! Loved it! :p
Thanks!
This was a very interesting video to see how the stats of today's world would play out, but I've gotta say that your commentary took it to the next level. Great video!
Coming from Quebec, can confirm that this, in fact, would/could still happen. Sovereign quebec is a very popular subject (Thanks Rene Lesvesque)
yeah but I think it's too late now unfortunately
"Poland and the Common Wealth exist at the same time? Listen, this is even getting too cursed for me" lol can relate
That last recap was like watching a doctor describe a bunch of minor cuts (everywhere but Europe) on a body with a bloody stump where the head was supposed to be (B E L G I U M)
I recommend using the Xorme AI mod if observing. You'll love it, can't play singleplayer without it.
"This is Malta. Hello Malta"
Idk why but this nearly made me spit out my drink
Ireland and Great Britain chilling on their islands the entire game
Loved the reverse flash refrences :)
1:57 I thought Red Hawk was going to say “The time it takes to pass a law in the U.S Congress,” not going to lie.
8:22 Why did that "Oman is a square" sentence make me wheeze so hard? (also 15:01)
I love that Greenland is called "Danish Canada".
I mean, is it wrong?
@@LlamasAtMidnight no, it just amuses me.
Not the British not invading Ireland while Belgium in conquering Moscow
you should start making the gp's go to war with each other at the end if they never come into conflict. would make these a bit more interesting.
Have you noticed that Turkey is monarchy ruled by Yamato dynasty i.e. the imperial dynasty of Japan? :P
50k!!!!!! Your growth rate is very high compared to other paradox channels
Now we need red hawk to do a a to z challenge in this scenario
17:35 The Ivory coast doesnt have a coast ironic.
As a Canadian, who knew Canada would probably die, I laughed pretty hard at Quebec separating.
Nice to see the UK did literally nothing other than taking one Spanish province for 400 years.
I don't know why but you sound insane in this video
The Philippines really became a Chinese province except by a different China.
7:13 well... prediction!
Idk but "Oman is a square" cracked me up
"Oman is a square"
-Red Hawk 8:22
meanwhile Portugal: "So... we lose Ceuta? That's it? Ok then."
The moroccan revange against spain was pretty epic
Revenge?
12:45 ofc belgium angry at french, best fries made in belgium yet people called it french fries. They malding
Honestly great vid :)
Egypt takes out Israel
Literally any history nerd: impossible
Except they owned Palestine for more time than any other nation in history
Greece borders looking pretty sexy at the end
Belgium got tired of being trespassed by Germany and went on the offensive
*insert Joker Picture* When Belgium conquers big parts of europe, nobody bats an eye. But when Germany does, everybody loses their mind
Belgium is exporting waffles and fries while Germany was exporting weird haircuts with even worse moustaches. I get it
Adal and Air sneaking back in to the game.
God damn, Belgium summoned the elector counts.
9:36 ah yes. German france. Obviously the best france :P
“Finally the border gore is gone! *looks at the central Asian stan countries* ….. oh.”
Either you pc (especially processor) is top-notch, or you have chosen death for your PC.
"And Oman is a square." Nice!
I was sad there was no "Greece went back to Constantinople" after they did.
Also, Spain and Turkey migrated into North Africa lol. Spain was just an OPM and Turkey became Egypt.
turkey getting megali'd by greece made me laugh so hard
USA :Brazil change your government . Brazil:No for the ninth time
My name is Greenland, but everybody calls me DANISH CANADA
i have to say i was not prepared for square oman
Kinda cringe that Great Britain isn't allied with Portugal at the start ngl
Lmao
Or that Canada wasn’t allied to the US
"yemen is back, oman is a square", lol😂
