    I find it funny that instead of Austria starting the Great War, since there is no Serbia, it is France’s own declaration.

      Historically, France wanted revenge against Germany for the defeat in the Franco-Prussian War, so that is a factor inciting war on the part of the French and Kaiser William II wanted a world empire.

      @@franciscomendez8350 yeah. That’s why France made the alliance with Russia, who also guaranteed the balkans, particularly Serbia. It limited the power of Germany and A-H, but it’s just funny how France would go at them outright. Where they are to blame for the war instead of Austria-Hungry.

      ​@franciscomendez8350 Actually, the German Empire had no interest in "world domination" and would more likely just take some of France and Russia, along with some French and British colonies. If they wanted to have a form of "world domination" the German Empire would simply take Britain's place as a colonial power and would try to establish good relations with America for trade.

      @@notgurkelieno It took Ottomans the whole war to actually collapse, even though all its fronts except the western one was on fire the whole time. Ottomans even had huge coastline to defend on all 3 seas (black sea, mediterranean sea, red sea). The whole thing literally tear itself apart just to stay on the fight. Hell, they didn't surrender even after completely collapsing into a civil war and all its former allies peacing out, they kept fighting until 1923 and only after getting an acceptable peace deal they've finally called it off. France and Germany may have lost a generation or two but Ottomans basically went back to stoneage after constant warfare and disasters over 11 years (1912-1923), AND THEY STILL DIDNT CHANGE SIDES UNLIKE THE ITALIANS.

      This was one of the largest and most decisive victories in all of ww1 and was a defeat so large for the Entente that you can see (avenge for gallipoli) in both the Australian and New Zealand focuses in base hoi4.
      I don't even know what in that article makes you think the Ottoman army was that bad. They fought against the British and Arabs in open terrain and partially against the Russians and far exceeded expectations. For a nation that had been on the decline for 300 years, slowly falling back in almost fully open terrrain against 2 of the largest empires in the world is pretty impressive.

    I remember playing as the Toman Empire and the most difficult thing of all is always to beat the Balkan War. In the first year I always take a defensive war that allows me to wear down the enemy as well as time and experience points to modernize my army and after that I take the initiative by taking Serbia, then Greece, Bulgaria and finally Montenegro. It's difficult and I achieved it once, it would be nice if they added a reward bonus for achieving something difficult with such a weak empire in the future, similar to when we beat Italy
