man, I love how drew does this for a living but barely understands how the hre works lmao. Poland is mega strong early game, the only thing stopping then from washing over the hre is a strong emperor (usually austria with his doggo hungary) and a bunch of allies, as attacking one hre member draws the emperor in. also, AE is multiplied in the HRE, further hindering poland.
In HOI4 you should make every country go back to the biggest state it has been in. And if any countries overlap, just make it so the oldest one owns that territory
I'm a simple man. Drew puts out a EU4 video. I hit the like button. Next Drew should dismantle Ming China into warring states. Maybe we could see a powerful Korea, Qing China, or maybe even an outsider like Dai Viet do well
There actually was an HRE type called the kingdoms of France, but with a name like that the country called France just ate everyone up in it and it did not official die out until napolion
Austria enslaving Hungary? I guess you could say Hungary is gonna go hungry, eh?...... I'm gonna end it all now. Don't worry I'm fine, just taking after our dear wonderful Drew here.
Really cool that you did my suggestion, even though germany died pretty early despite the fact that they were so big Maybe more tries would change things,idk
The lack of AE bonus which comes with imperial territory is what made the difference, Poland or Lithuania would’ve won but Lithuania got lucky by not getting out into a Union
I would love if Drew, would do multiple videos with those scenarios, maybe not uploaded back to back but I mean espacially in EU IV things turn out differently every time.
Brabanders will like extending to the Gulf of Biscay though ... Id thought that france being a mess would do well for some dutch provinces with things set up, still wierd

Germany wont demand Memel xDDDDdD
