I wonder if we just made Drew watch a mega campaign where everything happens like it did historically, but he didnt know it was historical, how long it would take for him to figure it out.
Drew, having too many territories compared to states causes corruption to skyrocket. That's why Russia didn't do that well: they don't have very many possible states at the start of the game but a ton of territory, so... probably have a shit ton of corruption
Combined with the fact that it would cost them way too much to adopt institutions, especially with all the corruption maluses and they almost certainly lagged behind heavily on tech and everything
yeah but having high corruption reduce rebels, i played with oirat and formed yuan i got corruption of 20 or 30 had 0 rebels couldnt do shit just attack :D
@@Alistar608 Having less unrest really doesn't compensate for the autonomy increases or the monarch power cost increases, or the nerfs to spy networks. Sure, internally you're a bit more stable, but externally you'll be wrecked
Yeah but this AI russia had a ton of rebels, I think if their corruption was that bad it wouldn't have had so many rebels. For some reason I feel like the mod didn't give them cores on all their land and they just owned it, but that's probably not the case.

The problem with such a large Nation in this early game is that due to low technology they cannot state every province leading to high corruption, which means expensive power costs. Or if the AI pays off corruption at a high rate that heavily damages their income and therefore their army. Not only that unstated land is essentially useless unless it's charter companied
The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn’t from where it is, it obtains a difference or deviation. The guidance subsystem uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a position where it isn't and arriving at a position that it wasn't, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is is now the position that it wasn't, and it follows that the position that it was is now the position that it isn't. In the event that the position that it is in is not the position that it wasn't, the system has acquired a variation. The variation being the difference between where the missile is and where it wasn't. If variation is considered to be a significant factor, it too may be corrected by the GEA. However, the missile must also know where it was. The missile guidance computer scenario works as follows: Because a variation has modified some of the information that the missile has obtained, it is not sure just where it is. However, it is sure where it isn't, within reason, and it knows where it was. It now subtracts where it should be from where it wasn't, or vice-versa. And by differentiating this from the algebraic sum of where it shouldn't be and where it was, it is able to obtain the deviation and its variation, which is called error.
There's admin, corruption, non state cores versus state cores...drew be like,"why not overpowered country?" Game Mechanics, that make the learning curve a bit harder.
Yeah, Florida used to be a monarchy - it collapsed a while back but Florida can (I believe) cede from the US to form the Floridian Monarchy. Drew.. I'm eyeing you..
Yeah the reason i never play as Muscovy -> Russia is rebellions and land mass wise are an absolute pain. The units take FOREVER to move from province to province and then of course Siberia is Siberia, attrition is deadly... Thats why my favorite places to play as are more Spain, Venice, Austria, basically any country with great development concentrated in key provinces
Its actually not easy to start with such a big country cause the army is too small (economy too bad) in the beginning. So you cant handle wars at every side of the world
EU4 is Such a disballanced game for Russia. I mean, IRL, look at Muscovy in the begging, and Russia in the beginning of Victoria. It’s like Russia EU4: falls from Commonwealth or Scandinavia Russia IRL: eats Finland and all the Commonwealth
If brazil formed early i am curious to know if they would conquer all of south and maybe north america before the europeans arrived or maybe even take pieces of africa
I think the problem for Russia is that it was broke because of the corruption from too many territories modifier. They spend most of their early game just preventing their country from falling apart, while it's neighbors spent it getting stronger, eventually, they had the military capacity to conquer Russia. Also remember those territories are locked at 75% autonomy,, so their value is only 25% of that of core territory. I'm not sure, but I don't think the AI uses estates very well, so they will struggle with getting value out of those territories.
states and territories, corruption, religious unity and just the overall size of russia is what made it fall apart for you, if all their land was states rather than territories, it could have been completely different, the trade goods they had in the siberian regions could have made a big difference as well, im personally playing as russia in my playthrough and i have become so large and strong i can start painting the map in the russian green colour
I feel like Russia in general is not that powerful in EU4... I was France and managed to get them in a PU fairly early game... this was with a friend playing as Austria with our only mod being no AE. He got worried I would grow too strong, attacked me, and then was annihilated by a war on two fronts... WW2 happened early...
