- Victoria 3 mods are here and today we look at the Australia Flavour mod, a mod that adds, you guessed it, flavour to Australia in Victoria 3. Here's the thing, this mod is actually brilliant. I genuinely had a really fun time recording this as it creates a unique and dynamic game that I've not seen any other mod do. Huge respect to this mod as I can honestly say it's some of the most fun I've had in Victoria 3!
Here's the mod - steamcommunity.com/sharedfile...

Give the mod some love here! - steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2939278238&searchtext=
Well worth checking out! We need more mods like this!
GOLD RUSH! Update 1.2 for Australia Flavour Pack is out! Features custom gold rush flavour including the Eureka Stockade rebellion, new Commonwealth subject type, new historical characters, new state traits and a bunch of other tweaks and rebalancing for 1.2. Check it out!
Thanks for showcasing our mod! Love your stuff
Brother. I finally found you
Pity no amount of mods can salvage how awful this game is
@@leonjaric9472 gday
thank you for finishing an unfinished game for free!

As someone from Queensland, this mod very accurately portrays how we want very little to do with NSW, unless we are actively beating them in something, preferably a sporting event.
Local Australian here, the states seceding appears to be a mechanic that's meant to replicate the actual historical division of Australia into multiple administrative areas which would then later form the Federation.
Also, Canberra is its own "state" because later it will become the capital because the two largest states of Victoria and New South Wales could not decide on who should have the capital (Melbourne or Sydney respectively) strictly speaking Canberra in reality is a territory which is a bit different but for gameplay purposes, it's a state.
For some extra context, each colony in Australia had its own rail gauge, and still *today,* well over a century after Federation, though much of the freight rail has been converted to standard gauge, passenger rail is still not completely unified in each state.
The same reason the District of Columbia is its own "state" in the U.S. in this game.
as always, nobody wants to pay for infrastructure, but everyone's quick to bitch about it's absence when they're inconvenienced by their own lack of investment

I was raised in Australia, so it's really interesting to see this mod and the research that went into it. They've done a great job going into the oft-unspoken parts of history, especially around the horrendous things done to the First Nations folk. It's also really interesting watching Laith take actions whilst knowing what's coming up historically (like the seperation of NZ, the formation of Canberra, the Gold Rush, etc.) Great video, and great mod!!
(one of the creators of the mod here, thank you for the kind words!) Oft-unspoken, but so crucial to understanding why Australia is the way it is today. One of the great things about making this mod is being able to show the Frontier wars as a central pillar of Australian societal development, and to show it to a more general audience. The better people understand the abhorrent actions of the past, the better we can reconcile with them in the present
As an Australian who actually knows about the Frontier Wars, I just saw the pop up and I instantly went 😬. It was incredibly brutal with groups such as the Native Mounted Police taking and indoctrinating indigenous Australians from a few tribes over so they would have no remorse in tracking down and killing other indigenous peoples. It resulted in the death of hundreds of thousands of Indigenous Australians and is very rarely discussed or taught in classrooms. I’m one of the few people who actually know about it due to doing modern history as a subject at school and was lucky enough that it was one of the units selected where I went to school. Whilst there is more education being rolled out (I believe/hope so) Australia is still far away from acknowledging and atoning for its past.
(one of the creators of the mod here) I'm glad that we got to represent it, but I do think there's a lot more that we could do to represent it properly. It's extremely difficult to portray these horrible horrible events whilst also giving the player options to do. It's a never-ending battle between historicity and good game mod. I'd like to think weve done ok so far, but theres a lot more that we can do to really show how horrible it was and also how it is a central part of the history of Australia and cannot be ignored
@Marie Tsuki As you point out Wikipedia is an imperfect source, looking at it myself it seems far from the truth. Firstly, I think making the differentiation between 'Australians and Aboriginals' is certainly insensitive (although I hope you don't mean it that way) due to the fact that Aboriginal Australians were the first Australians, a variety of cultures that have existed for the last 60,000 years, with the ones you describe as 'Australians' being European colonizers. While I don't dispute the fact the Aboriginals in (VERY FEW) instances did carry out raids against Europeans (the only tribe that was the initial aggressor in all my research were the Kalkadoons) it was largely Aboriginals being targeted by Native Mounted Police and British forces due to unbacked claims made by farmers and pastoralists. I don't know where you read that Australian authorities tried to minimise casualties (I suppose during initial contact they may have tried to maintain a type of peace) but I can assure nothing would be further from the truth. Also if you look percentage wise in terms of population it was devastating with estimates being around 800,000 Indigenous Australians in 1788 down to 60,000 in the 1920s (according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics), that representing a MASSIVE decrease of over 90%.
Australia also perpetuated the Stolen Generations from the beginning of the 1910 up until around 1970s (it is argued that it went on longer) which led to the illegal abduction of Indigenous Australian children from their families under laughable pretenses from the Australian Government (the impacts of which are still felt today). Whilst there are issues in regards to the Australian Government I won't get into that but I do believe we are one of the 'better' (if such a word exists) democracies but Australia was built on historical half or mistruths (the Indigenous population was almost never the initial aggressors against European colonizers). So I 100% believe that reconciliation is the right path for Australia, especially since Indigenous Australians are far worse off in our nation. Nothing will ever truly rectify what was done to those who were here before us, but I hope that we can make it better (there is an upcoming referendum in Australia about this, but I've gone on long enough, if you're interested look up Voice to Parliament).
We've already acknowledged enough, to say we should atone further for things none of us were responsible for is ludicrous
@@idonhaveanyideawhattocallm1472 If someone walked into your home, shot your parents, brainwashed your siblings, kicked you out and then moved in, you'd be pretty pissed off no?
No, we personally didn't expel them from their land, we personally didn't pull the trigger, but our ancestors did. Hell, the stolen generations only ended 50 years ago. Were they indigenous, there's a chance my PARENTS (who are still very much living and breathing) would have been affected by it.
The absolute least we can do is apologise on their behalf, and it's our duty to do all we can to reconcile. To say we've "acknowledged enough" is downright insensitive.
@@idonhaveanyideawhattocallm1472 it's a god damn shame to see that this way of thinking exists outside of America
Was playing Japan when the rebellion nation of Uluru popped up and won queensland. Switched to play this and it was effectively unplayable due to limitations of resources available in Queensland. As someone who lives in QLD it was super frustrating to see a whole bunch of key resources we are massive exporters of just not exist.
Probably aren’t discovered at that time? I wouldn’t know though
I can't believe you're worth over a whopping 60 camels, that's such a huge milestone!!!
I'm so proud of you!!!
64, to be exact
@@ahhno4662 a stack of Camels
Wow Laith hates Queensland almost as much as he hates Richard the lionheart
Fair
If he hates him so much, why did he go simping for him on stream yesterday? Checkmate Anti-Lionheartists!
The moment laith started hating on the Queenslanders, getting annoyed with the south Australians, and trying to keep Victoria and New Zealand in nsw, I knew he was a true New South Welshmen.
I played Australia a few weeks ago. And it felt kind of op with all the migration. And you don't really need a military at the start.
Australia needs more love in Vicky 3, its great fun! Awesome to see you play us, would love to see more of this, Aussie Aussie Aussie!
Day 17 of asking for a reverse colonial and Pacific Imperialist playthrough of the Philippines. Goals being to colonize, capture all of the South Pacific territory, colonize capture the Oceania territories, and capture Japan. Basically, all island nations in the south and east pacific belong to the Philippines on Victoria 3
Thanks for playing in NSW specifically, one challenge i have for you, play the Untied Tribes and form Aotearoa
This truly is "red line go down" simulator. Brought to you by the land down under.
Camels were used to lay the first rail and telegraph lines, we're taught about it in primary school. Little footnote, but interesting nonetheless.
I have no idea until about 1910 Canberra was a sheep station, and is only the capital as a compromise between Sydney and Melbourne because they wouldn't let the other one be the Capital.😅
Laith 2 mins into the video. Me looks away from my phone for 2 seconds snd hears "IM WORTH 64 CAMELS."
European Paradox gamers make mods to add flavour. Aussies make mods to convince people that Australia is not a dangerous hell-hole.
LOTR is gonna be a lot weirder in this timeline, what with everyone having an Aussie accent.
Basically everyone sounds like the elves (Hugo and Cate are both Aussie - Orlando wasn't exactly Kiwi to start)?
Congrats on being worth over 60 camels! Wow!
Finally, the Hapsburgs submit to their true masters, Straya. In all seriousness it was nice to see you play this.
That ass kicking flag is one solid simpsons reference
That meme and the flag at the end though xD
Mods carrying a paradox game again I see
As an Australian myself, I approve of this flavour mode; I will be listing some historical facts (that I can remember) for you since I know you are a history nerd! Firstly, I will say this, our history is really terrible for the things we done against the Indigenous people and the stain of our past still lingers to this very day.
On the topic of Indigenous folk, this leads to history fact #1: In the Australian Constitution, there is a section speaking of New Zealand as it suggested they should Federate with us, but they didn't for many number of reasons, one being our Indigenous laws versus theirs (New Zealand has the best Indigenous laws) but even though they denied to join, they are welcome to join Australia has a State to the country (as stated in the Constitution).
History fact #2: The invasive species were a massive problem, from my homestate of Western Australia (WA), which funnily enough the rabbit event you saw, did lead to WA having to be a massive fucking fence to keep the rabbits to the Eastern; they got around it 3 times in the north since we build the fence from South to North; so there's 3 large fences within the state.
History fact #3: The federation's conversations and discussions took a long time because there were many issues or subjects about which and what laws from who's colonies should be followed; one of them being railway width; each colonies' railway lines had tracks of different width and of course, one colony simply couldn't stand using another colony's system because that's a sign of submission
and to top it all off, after you hit the meme mode button; one of the funny australian memes you did without realising it was federating without Tasmania; it's a well known joke here from other states that Tasmania doesn't exist or isn't apart of Australia.
(one of the creators of the mod here) Just wanted to mention that the last one isn't part of the meme mode (probably a bug lol) but thats given me a few ideas to put into the next version 😈
The same joke exists in the US about Wyoming
@@swankychives I mean, the Tasmania revolt was the game's doing and not really from the meme mode but it was a funny tie-in
@@mranything01 it happened a lot in testing and we thought we fixed it D: but yeah it is funny thinking of it like that

You want to stack naval bases as high as possible, as they are slow to train their troops and not at hiring them. The taller you build naval bases, the more efficient they become at training their sailors and will thus fill up much quicker.
GOLD RUSH! Update 1.2 for Australia Flavour Pack is out! Features custom gold rush flavour including the Eureka Stockade rebellion, new Commonwealth subject type, new historical characters, new state traits and a bunch of other tweaks and rebalancing for 1.2. Check it out!
btw Laith, Camels are bot indigenous ti Australia and were introduced in 1840 from the Canary islands. They are feral animals in Australia and are invasive. Feral canels are apparently a problem in Australia and that population can double in 9 years. So to Australians out there, get your hunting licenses and start eating camels or maybe you can find other better uses for your invasive species, but all the means good luck to you guys and i hope you can keep your beautiful natural wildlife alive. Also sick vid Laith, shit went hard as fuck
Day 6 of asking for an Australian Aboriginal play-through where you conquer England and convert it to aboriginal culture as a reverse stolen generation in eu4
My current Australian game Victoria and Tasmania are booming. Tasmania is the leading producer of art in the world. I’m also leaning hard into my gold mines to sort my economy out after independence. Told the British Republic thanks but no thanks and let the French carry the water for that one.
So much potential in this
You could have sckd the british market pops just by focusing in SoL in the beggining and then trying to build up the provinces. By the way, thanks for the content! Cheers
Laith!
LAITH!
Emu war moment
Finally. Some representation for Australia in a Paradox game!
3:27 haha thats your name lmao
Lore of THIS is the MOST FUN you’ll have in Victoria 3 momentum 100
That flag change was the best thing I've ever seen in a mod.
ty for content laith. i really enjoy your utube
I absolutely love how happy Laith is with being worth 64 camels
Camels are NOT indigenous to Australia, in fact they are highly invasive and a big problem. And Laith, we know you're just excited about the new events and gameplay that comes with them not the actual historical events themselves. Have some faith in us.
You got a like for the book mention. I'm going to have to read it.
sniper is a good job mate!!!
You should do a playthrough as the Roman Republic by changing the Papal States government type. It's pretty easy, and I'd argue way more fun than playing the Pope
"Fun" Fact! The American tumbleweed is also an invasive species, it snuck aboard ships coming from Russia, it's actually native to the Siberian tundra.
When a region changes market and becomes isolated despite having a port, you gotta save and quit to fix it.
Australia exports camels to the Middle East, we have that many.
I am trying to find the Geographies of democracies book you were talking about to read, but I can't find it. The closest book I can find is "Spaces of Democracy". is it possible that you are misremembering the name?
The closest I found was an article called "the geographies of radical democracy"
Day 43 of asking Laith to Please Play More EU4 Anbennar, thanks, may you have a wonderful day.
camels and afghani caravaneers were imported to transport goods across the desert before trains where available.
I'd want a favour mod that add autonomous emus that try to take over Australia
We plan to include that in the mod!
Base Victoria 3 tastes like boiled chicken breast to me. No salt, no pepper and no flavor.
Just as the British like it. I guess that is why the game is named after their ruler.
So exactly like base Victoria 2!
Love that game, but it’s unplayable without both DLC as well as HPM/HFM
You mean every new paradox release?
Yep it is a nutritious filling base but it needs some spice to be really good
33:39 Laith invents rainbow capitalism, 1862
But in the case of Canada, Quebec has the largest GDP in 1836 :p Good luck trying to form Canada with New Brunswick or Nova Scotia!
That being said, there is a mod like this one for Canada : "The True North Strong & Free : Canada Rework", you can form Canada starting as lower (Québec) or upper (Ontario) Canada and it adds historical events (1837-1838 patriots rebellion!)
Eh Laith as a somewhat proud Canadian I should inform you that Quebec is not the smallest colony/province GDP wise at this point, that would be my home province of Nova Scotia or the neighboring province of New Brunswick where poverty flows through our veins no less than the water we make our living on... PEI is actually the smallest one though in this time period but its unplayable because Paradox doesn't know anything about Canada. Also, coal a plenty in the area so get rich quick bud!
🤘🏽 great video
Laith there ARE cacti native to Africa, it is actually one of the prime examples of convergent evolution
They look the same but aren't related at all because to survive in a desert you gotta Cactus it up
Now most cacti in africa are in fact American invasive species but the fascinating part about the African cactus is that the internal structure of them is ENTIRELY DIFFERENT
the only thing they share is HOW THEY LOOK
That's right
A plant evolved how to store and conserve water two different ways on earth **But both of them decided to be prickly and fat**
I would assume Western Australia is way easier since all you need to do is vibe, and get everyone to like you.
Laith trying not to complain (challenge impossible)
I want more buttons to perform attrocities
It's very easy to have fun with the griping story and wonderful characters of(some)Fire Emblem games. On the 14th day of this journey, may ye at least consider it.
Nice to see my country made
YOUVE GIVEN ME AN IDEA!!!!!!!!!
Yooo I’m worth more camels than Laith and that’s the takeaway for this video
Daily laith W
Australia actually exports camels to the Middle East :)
If you play a Canadian nation, I'm begging you, please play New Brunswick, we need more representation lmao
i got 65 camals, take that laith
Why do you keep the authority points at maximum 🤔?
You can get easy money from consumption tax or infrastructure degrees
Camels are not native to Australia, Afghanis brought them here to work with in the early days
When are you playing as Canada?
11:20
"i don't want a button to do tragedies"
Laith, i agree with everything else you're saying but i disagree with this one. The ability to be in the shoes so to say of an "evil" dictator or policymaker in my opinion is one of the most interesting things in a game. Especially if choosing that tragedy comes with a big advantage. So you are now in a position where you're technically better off, but you did just shoot yourself morally or in the long term. It goes to show you that, when you're in that position of power and you view everything as charts and number, you're willing to do some pretty horific things
Don't mean to brag but I'm worth 73 camels
Hello guys today is the seventh day of historical facts already!
On the tenth day you can request someone and Im going to research it.
Ashoka:
Ashoka popularly known as Ashoka the Great, was the third emperor of the Maurya Empire of the Indian subcontinent during 268 to 232 BCE.
His empire covered a large part of the Indian subcontinent, stretching from present-day Afghanistan in the west to present-day Bangladesh in the east, with its capital at Pataliputra.
A patron of Buddhism, he is credited with playing an important role in the spread of Buddhism across ancient Asia. Ashoka's edicts state that during his eighth regnal year (c. 260 BCE), he conquered Kalinga after a brutal war, and the destruction caused by the war made him repent violence. This claim is omitted in his inscriptions found in the Kalinga region, possibly because Ashoka considered it politically inappropriate to admit his remorse before the people of Kalinga, or because the claims made in the edicts are not fully accurate and are meant to impress the people of other regions. Ashoka subsequently devoted himself to the propagation of "dhamma" or righteous conduct, the major theme of the edicts.
Ashoka's edicts suggest that a few years after the Kalinga War, he was gradually drawn towards Buddhism. The Buddhist legends do not mention the Kalinga War at all, and variously state that Ashoka converted to Buddhism after being dissatisfied with the leaders of the other faiths or after witnessing miracles performed by Buddhist leaders.
They credit Ashoka with establishing a large number of stupas, patronising the Third Buddhist council, supporting Buddhist missionaries, making generous donations to the sangha, and even persecuting non-Buddhists. Ashoka's existence as a historical king had almost been forgotten, but this changed with the decipherment of the Brahmi script in the 19th century. Historians connected the titles Priyadasi and Devanampriya mentioned in his edicts to the Ashoka of Buddhist legends, and established Ashoka's reputation as one of the greatest Indian emperors. The emblem of the modern Republic of India is an adaptation of the Lion Capital of Ashoka.
The name "A-shoka" literally means "without sorrow". According to an Ashokavadana legend, his mother gave him this name because his birth removed her sorrows.
He was also called a "Chakravartin" this title is only given to people who united the entire indian subcontinent under their rule.
"The commentary is going to be me being upset" Like the last video where you got almost insane? It's funny so I really don't mind.
Have fun reading guys :)
Laith you’re a nice handsome man
Laith, create new urban centers, c'mon.
To build where people already are is no fun. New cities are cooool!!
It is day 120 since I asked you to do the challenge with Croatia in VIC 3 but in one of the videos, a good person named Andraip (Thanks for all the help) said it has a few flaws so it's time to correct them. So when you start playing as Croatia you have 15 years to get your independence, after that you cannot ally, get in a defensive pact, and you cannot be under any kind of protection and you must rival these powers as soon as possible: Austria, Russia, Serbia, Montenegro, Ottomans, and all nations from the Italian boot. You also must embargo all those nations and cannot enter their custom union nor can they enter yours. You cannot be in an alliance with any of the top 10 nations, including a defensive pact custom union, or protectorate, but you can trade with them. AI must be put on the default settings in case it isn't. If you ally let's say Portugal, and later on they get into the top 10, you must break the alliance. You also must stay monarchy all the time. Form the Danubian state with Croatia following these rules. (FYI incase I didn't make it more specific, you cannot join anybody's custom union you must always at all times have your own market)
When will you play in 1.2? It's so much better
The 1.2 Beta is so much better, you should try it out
In some videos I saw "aboriginal revolt" so I wonder if you can give back Australia 🇦🇺 to the original natives and take control of them.
In one of our next major updates, we'll be looking at doing something like or related to this!
@Maiyn yeah will do!
@Maiyn appreciate the feedback and suggestions :) are you indigenous?
@Maiyn Thanks! I'm not ATSI so I'm a bit unsure on how to go about doing some of these things in an appropriate way. What are your thoughts on when doing some of this stuff about playable indigenous tags and giving a kind of split sovereignty or something, that many of the indigenous groups are amalgamated together to represent a broader pan-aboriginal identity? With there being so many different indigenous groups, it feels a bit tricky to do it right.
@Maiyn Alright, thank you very much!
See how he has already imbraced the Australian tradition o go hating queensland
64 whole camel
I want a camel now
Damn. I'm worth less cammels than he is😔
Why don't you play beta?
Not uniting Australia as tasmania, smh
w video as always
I love you laith
You ever try the old world blues mod for hoi 4? Even if your not a fallout fan there is some really cool stuff anyone who is into alternate history can enjoy. Also I find the added mechanics like being able to add cores make it more fun when it comes to building nations. Also who doesn’t like an ai the thinks it’s the reincarnation of Moctezuma.
As a person with ADHD, some of the things Laith does really seems like he has ADHD 😂 (for clarification I'm not trying to say he does, I'm just making a joke)
8th day strait of asking laith to play among us in crusader kings 3.
haaah! camels 🤭
7:50
Evangelism and Acceptance of other people are not mutually exclusive.
This is day 14 of asking you to do a mega campaign from ck3 to hoi4.
67 camels
The failure to model any real kind of 1848 is what gets me. That is such an interesting year all across Europe and even in other parts of the world. Does Metternich even come up in the game? I'm glad people are putting in flavorful ways to play the game with Mods, but it really shouldn't be the player's responsibility to make the game interesting.
Confederate is the word you're looking for
Laith can you form Malaysia please 🙏
