  • What if Germany Formed 500 Years Early? Instead of a unification taking place in 1871, in this universe the nation was established before 1444. How will trade, war, and colonial territory change? What will happen now to the HRE?

    German Greenland could have happened in real life. The Moravian mission founded Nuuk with the name neu-herrnhut but as the Danish colony moved their establishment to the herrnhuttic mission they renamed the city name to Godthaab. Consider if the Danes didn't fund their mission and colonization of Greenland. The Germans was actually the only ones successful in converting inuits in the start and they had the biggest establishment at frederickstahl in the southern Greenland. Greenlandic hymns and choirs are highly influenced by the Moravian vocal music.
    The herrnhut/moravian mission in Greenland ended in year 1900 and was taken over by the Danish church and thus ending the German mission in Greenland.

    In the Middle Eastern expansion (which didn't really stick to only the Middle East) the Timmurids were changed to having a ton of vassals who stayed loyal only due to bonuses given by their starting leader. Once the Timmy's starting leader dies their subjects usually declare independence and cause a different type of Timmurid explosion.
    Also their blue vassal right above them was really OP until the Russian patch, as it usually ate all the land above it and then started running wild in Russia and the top of Asia. Sometimes it even won an AI on AI war against Ming.
