The game starts around 1 century after the Mongols, and they hit Iran so hard the population wouldn't bounce back to its 1200 level, until the 19th century. So don't be surprised if pop numbers are lower than expected.
ikr right . baghdad is famous for having more a million peoples butchered but this fate pretty much happened to every major city in persia and this is why the area of Bukhara and samarkand and tabriz became powerful since in the persian sphere while the true persian heartland was since then not so important anymore . part of why the persian states who did appear from persia couldnt unify Iran anymore because the areas north became much more stronger
I'm a Saudi Arabian Najdi, from the tribe of Otaibah. When it comes to the tribal lands they've got it mostly right, most tribes stayed where they are but the identity of "Hijazi" and Khaliji did not exist prior to the Ottoman nominal control of Western Arabia. West coastal flat lands of west Arabia was called Tuhama, Hijaz is used only to refer to the mountians line from Tabuk to Sana'a. Bahrain refers to the whole eastern coast of Arabia Yemen prior to 1990 was used to refer to what is south of Makkah, while Sham (levant) is north of Makkah. There is no difference between the nomadic tribals or city dwellers mostly in all of Arabia, most tribes have a common Arabian identity where Bedouin just referred to those who lived a nomadic life and "Hadari" or "settled" to those who lived in cities. While you can find those of Bedouin background settled in cities and towns. Tribes migrated seasonaly within their own borders and somtimes fought for nominal control over cities, they had a money for protection deal and somtimes traded with cities. My tribe Otaiba at the 1300 was in Taif and the areas around that, only fought and conquered Najd at the 1700's under Shiekh Turki Bin Humaid after the Qahtanis refused to allow Otaibah their seasonal travel into Najd. I wish to see more representation for settled tribes and families like for example Banu Hanifa (Ancestors of Al Saud) who ruled Diriyah, the capital of the first Saudi state. maybe as nobles within your tribal kingdom? There are definetly more habitable lands than shown here. I wish if they would introduce some mechanics into the game for those who want to play tall in the region; such as settling the tribals, and building wells and roads to "tame" the wasteland.
Thank God, someone brought local knowledge to the comments section. I have lived in Saudia all my life and noticed some discrepancies here but couldn't verbalise them. Also, it is not possible that there were no natural harbors in Eastern Arabia where most of the life revolved around sea faring activities.
@@bilalsyed8550 yep, the whole Eastern coast was dotted with trading and pearl harvesting villages while the western coast had trading ports and the famous Jeddah port
7:04 It is true, Bahrain was the name of the region and whoever ruled it was called the King of Bahrain (the two seas: the gulf and Al-Asfar Lake in Al-Hasa) And one day, the Sultan of Najd took control of the region except for Awal Island, the King of Bahrain became the ruler of the island only. If you go to the eastern region in Saudi Arabia, you will see that the dialect and religion sect resemble the island more than Najd.
Wow im arab i never heard about Al asfar lake, apparently its really small but important enough to give its name to the entire region. Thx for the Info bro
The Arabian peninsula actually shouldn't product that much sand. The desert is so old, and the grains are so eroded, that the sand on the peninsula is actually worthless, it's not good for glass making, or construction, or even beaches. It is actually not useful for anything.
Funny thing? I am Shammar...the Shammar are one of the big tribes (southern Iraq, north of the island). I hope there will be new and beautiful additions to this region. They did a good job in all aspects, from geography, religions, etc., but the cultural map is very bad. For example, the northern region should contain a culture other than Najdi (Haili), the Shammar culture. But they did a good job in Oman and Yemen, but there should be more Gulf culture. But other than that, they did a very good job.
Coffee was not a trade good until late 1500s. Turks and therefore Venetians learnt it during the reign of Suleiman I. He asked sheik Al Islam if it's legit Islamic drink, ebussuud confirmed it's legit since it didn't hurt or dull ones feelings and mind, instead sharpened it. Few years later it was banned because people criticised shehzade Mustafa's murder, sipping their coffee at now-popular coffeehouses in İstanbul.
I think they should do as the Invictus team have done in Imperator Rome and pop a few Oasis terrain amidst the endless desert, just so arabian nations can have at least one or two more easy to develop provinces
Bahrain used to be the name identifying the whole eastern coast of what is now Saudi Arabia as well as the current island of Bahrain, so it is accurate.
Glad to see my tribe Dawasir back and hope they have special missions since we actually expanded to Bahrain and some parts of Persia P.s Dawasi dynasty should be like Eu4 one Al-Zayid
"Oh, where do I start... I hope my comment reaches the developers. There are many mistakes, but correcting them is harder because we know little about that period in the Arabian Peninsula. Most of its inhabitants lagged behind in knowledge, and many were illiterate (with the exception of some areas in the Hejaz, like Mecca/Medina, and parts of Yemen and Oman). In terms of religion and ethnicities, especially between the Hejaz and Yemen, the Asiris are neither Hejazi nor Yemeni. I also noticed the omission of an ancient city that still exists today, ‘Najran,’ which I did not see on the maps. As for religious sects, Shia Muslims in the Arabian Peninsula were mainly concentrated in the east and south, especially in regions like Saada, Sana’a, and Ma’rib, where the majority were Zaydi Shia. As for Najran, they are Ismaili Shia, and this remains the case to this day. The Sarawat region (modern-day Asir) in the southern Hejaz was not Shia; they were Sunni Shafi'is. My evidence for this comes from Ibn Battuta’s book, where he mentioned that 'they are farmers, their land is fertile, they perform Hajj and Umrah, and they have sound beliefs' (*Ibn Battuta's Journey, Volume 1, Page 113). As you know, Ibn Battuta was a Sunni from Morocco. Regarding ports, I was surprised that Jeddah was not added as a port. It is a famous pilgrimage port founded by the third Rashidun Caliph, Uthman ibn Affan. As for goods, I suggest adding several coffee-growing areas in Yemen and the Asir region, including Abha and its surroundings. I also recommend adjusting the climate since those areas are cold in the winter and mild in the summer, without the desert heat. Additionally, the Hejaz mountain range extends nearly to Aden, yet I noticed it was incorrectly shown as separated by hills, which is wrong.

I disagree with you on Asir being its own separate region. We have Geographical documents that is from Sulatan Omar abin Yousef abin Rasool in the year 1296 that mentioned the Arabian regions and they mentioned the region of Asir as part of the Yemeni Makhlieef
@@Truth21a619 Asir has been ruled by many kingdoms. I am not talking about political affiliation, as it is changeable and changes quickly. I mean culturally.

najidi and khaliji are defined by geography . khaliji literally mean person who live by the khalij / gulf . najidi mean they live in region of nejd and hedjazi mean from hedjaz. i guess the devs couldnt find much difference in the wider bedouin culture so they took this approach based on geography . khaliji for example would farm pearls and fishes and focus on trade . najdi will be more nomadic , hedjazi would be more about pastoral farming and trading

I wouldnt count on it. Paradox has little interest in West Asia and North Africa for some reason. It was to the point we had to beg them to give that region content in EU4.

I feel a little disappointed with this part of the world. I thought there would be a real cultural and religious mix there (especially Yemen). Meanwhile, this promises to be the most boring region to play in EU5. I hope that the developers will think about it and add some events, e.g. with Judaism or Christianity (which was also there). I hope that there will also be mechanics for traversing these wastelands at higher levels of development or through decisions or ideas. Nomadic cultures traveled in caravans through such territories.
Oman doesn't really have natural harbors. I mean there are built out harbors in the modern era but none of those ports appear to have naturally good geography. The Gulf of Oman and the Arabian sea is just harsh coastal landscape that would have been semi-frequently battered. The Persian Gulf should have multiple natural harbor locations though. I think Market Zones should be changed to have powerful trade centers with large economic zones while rural and non-control zones should be in sub-Market Zones that are largely local unless someone or something makes an effort to include a rural zone in a market. Make the Market Zones overlap and be based off current economic zones based off development or volume/value of trade. Trade focused empires should be able to overrun neighboring Markets with their influence. - The Tribes should just be part of that localize sub-Market Zone with some infrequent or frequent changes for a region to be included in a neighboring major market.

Map modes are prett ugly, look liek CK2. Hope it improves. CK2 was my first Paradox experience (demo I think), but I didn't get a paradox game until years later with EUIV.

you were probably thinking of Laika, the dog that went to space
Subay ... I keep reading Subway. Even my phone wants to autocorrect it. xD
Laika was the first dog in space @Ludi
I feel a little disappointed with this part of the world.
I thought there would be a real cultural and religious mix there (especially Yemen). Meanwhile, this promises to be the most boring region to play in EU5.
I hope that the developers will think about it and add some events, e.g. with Judaism or Christianity (which was also there). I hope that there will also be mechanics for traversing these wastelands at higher levels of development or through decisions or ideas. Nomadic cultures traveled in caravans through such territories.
As usual they ignored the presence of tribes in the southwest of the Arabian Peninsula, such as Asir and Yam, and divided them between Hejaz and Yemen
my name is fars al otaibah فارس العتيبي I just found out that my tribe is old
draya was formed around 1445 (presaudi city state) how do you think its going to be
I thought that the Islamic golden era ended with the sack of bagdad by hulagu
Arabia gonna be mainly desert isn't it?
Bahrana and omani should be part of the Khaleji culture (Khalij mean "Gulf") especially Bahrana
Oman doesn't really have natural harbors. I mean there are built out harbors in the modern era but none of those ports appear to have naturally good geography. The Gulf of Oman and the Arabian sea is just harsh coastal landscape that would have been semi-frequently battered. The Persian Gulf should have multiple natural harbor locations though.
I think Market Zones should be changed to have powerful trade centers with large economic zones while rural and non-control zones should be in sub-Market Zones that are largely local unless someone or something makes an effort to include a rural zone in a market. Make the Market Zones overlap and be based off current economic zones based off development or volume/value of trade. Trade focused empires should be able to overrun neighboring Markets with their influence.
- The Tribes should just be part of that localize sub-Market Zone with some infrequent or frequent changes for a region to be included in a neighboring major market.
Omg this is mega hype. I can't wait for najd supremacy
Cartoon english people will still pronounce hormuz the same
Line city is way up north near israel
Najdi is the modern word for the area and people there are Bedouin. Bedouin means tribesman so making Najdi as a separate culture is wrong.
I wonder if Harad is an easter egg
This time i hope they stay there
You mean arabian peninsula in Project Caesar?

I don't think those are 100% harbors, they look like they're 50%, in the European map 100% harbors were bright lime green, while these are the more middling color.

im sad they didint include mikhlaf

Clearly Yemen is destined to be the richest and most powerful nation in this region

Why is there no mixtures between the cultures it depend on tribes every Arab trip have it own zone and it’s known for every one there and entering any other clan or tribe area it considers as violation and the only mixing that could happen between the Arab tribes is by marriage (political reasons) and there is a lot of blood shed between the tribes due to division like some of them are loyal to mamluks and other big powers and the division in Islam like some clans are Shiites, ibadi or Sunni

Map modes are prett ugly, look liek CK2. Hope it improves. CK2 was my first Paradox experience (demo I think), but I didn't get a paradox game until years later with EUIV. CK2 is still great, but I really only enjoy being Viking in it because the most ridiculous shit can happen but it still fits into the gameplay, like your brother leaving for an expedition not under your control and 50 years later you are marrying your children to the Viking Empire of Spain.
Play AOC3
It's mistake to call it fars gulf first of all local persian didn't call it fars fars literally is translation of persian in arabic second it's not a sea it's gulf they must rename it to it historical name "Persian Gulf"

Muscat Harbor was historically significant and important enough to be occupied by the Portuguese.
I hate this "Don't worry it's all modable approach" I want the game to have a designers touch which makes sense, they should go all in and use their own ideas not pamper to the vocal minority...
Idk man calling a whole population Shiite seems a bit rude.
