About the releasing Japan thing, one thing you can do is conquer Hokkaido. This lets you release Ezo, which accepts both Japanese and Ainu pops, making it a strictly better Japan. Then you can just feed them all your Japanese states.
Incredible gameplay of Zulu conquering the East before taking more african control. Now I want to look more. Will the Zulu claim the chinese Throne? Will they have the Mandate of Heaven?
As a general rule Laissez-faire is pretty bad at Industrializing, Its best served around mid game (as far as my experience goes) as the early game investment pool tends to be mainly Aristocrats, the Shopkeepers and Industrialists are just too poor or not even existing in pre-industrialization nations.
@@Quarbit Iirc it's kind of meta for less developed countries. I think even Paradox acknowledged that in the future plans diaries or somewhere, can't remember exactly where.
Personally, when playing a country that starts on Serfdom, I find it better to use Mr. Corn Laws to enact Tenant Farmers than Homesteading. The problem is that since homesteading gives the farmers much more money and therefore clout, it can greatly bolster the Rural Folk and the Devout; aka, the 2 worst IGs besides the Landowners. Besides, what you ultimately want is Commercial Agriculture, but if you're already on Homesteading, the RFs favorite law, it becomes way harder to switch off it.
16:20 That's me in both Vic3 and EU4. Never played any of the big countries. Always starting as an underdog. Well, two exceptions were Aragon and Poland in EU4. Aragon was my very first campaign, so I wanted something easier to learn (still picked Aragon instead of Castile). And I played Poland cause I'm Polish, so it was an obvious must-play at some point. Watching weaker and more obscure countries on youtube is also way more entertaining for me. When I see titles like 'the strongest France you've ever seen' or 'I dominated the world as the British Empire', I'm not interested at all :P
Yeah, I find the unreliability of the AI-likeliness-to-join-war tool to be frustrating. Amazing econ simulator, but really feel there's just a small handful of things like this on the diplo and military areas holding this game back
Maybe it is because the calculation is for the current status. When declaring war your infamy increase, so the new infamy is not calculated in the original Ai likeliness to join. (dunno if there are other factor or is it just that bad)
MORE ANBENNAR! ANBENNAR SUPREMACY! But fr play Venail->Aelnar/Jadd/Corintar->Castanor/Calysto Bhu it's literally the most fun I had in this game in my 3k hours
Korea next please? I would love an Afghan tag as well. I do think the Ottomans and Qing play a bit harder than your other major tags but the rest are definitely boring.
PLEASE actually played a major country. Sure you start in a good position, but you can actually go for total economic dominance & line-goes-up simulator. USA is a great one because playing aggressive has like 0 consequences (except for going after Canada)
but how else am I going to get the experience of playing a small backwater that modernizes to establish an empire in spite of the colonial ambitions of the europeans?

Blink thrice if you're being held hostage by paradox.

oh I didn't know that! I'll keep it in mind, thanks
The Zulu have claimed the Mandate of Heaven

Next time on Dragon Ball Z
Rather than Shaka Zulu, we get Shogun Zulu.

I have since learned since I recorded this, yeah it was maybe not a great starting move
Vicky 3 vid without abusing the Corn Laws cheese: challenge - impossible.
is it considered cheese? I don't follow the online vic3 discussion

You're completely right, but I only figured that out after recording this video

noone cares bro, thanks for sharing though.
@@wescube Wrong. I care, and thank you @SereglothIV for sharing.
War reps don’t require the capital but they do require you to occupy homeland territories
Quarbit upload jumpscare!

25:52 I believe to release a country you must control it's default capital province and none of the Chinese minors have Suzhou as their capital.
unlucky I guess lol
MORE ANBENNAR! ANBENNAR SUPREMACY! But fr play Venail->Aelnar/Jadd/Corintar->Castanor/Calysto Bhu it's literally the most fun I had in this game in my 3k hours
What/where is calysto bhu? In the market for my next campaign and haven't heard that one yet
"blink twice if paradox holds you"
blinking trice
I feel the same (In hoi4 i play major nations only for alternative playthrough, I never played a major nation in eu4, or vic3 )
Zulu Japan and China is amazing.
I SAW 2 BLINKS CALL THE COPS!!!!
16:13 Well +2k hours in EU4 here and only played the Ottomans to get their achievements, still havent played Ulm too
ngl i also avoid strong nations, but russia is quite the expection, played twice was quite fun bc you still needed to industralize
nice!!! with vic3 you will be more popular 🎉
There better be a part 2. I wanna see great power zulu with most of east africa
27:32 usa should take note
Nice video
You should try EU4 mod Atlas Novum, it's like vanilla on steroids with so much content
protecterate is free
Korea next please? I would love an Afghan tag as well.
I do think the Ottomans and Qing play a bit harder than your other major tags but the rest are definitely boring.
5:30 - I wonder if it's a conscript thing?
What's Lithuania doing down in South Africa?
DADDY ZULU
Zulu: Hey can I have 1 Shikoku with extra sulfer.
Japan: Hai, Kyuushu wa ikaga desu ka?
8:54 its because spain doesnt have an interest in south africa
How much does paradox pay?
A reasonable amount for sponsorships, but those only come around during updates
If you read this - we won ZULUL.
