  • In this video titled EU4 A to Z - I SOLVED A 9 Year Old EU4 MYSTERY I play as Larrakia in Europa Universalis 4 1.34 Lions of The North. This is the series titled A to Z where I attempt to play every* nation in EU4 in alphabetical order. Of course I had to remove some nations so the challenge doesn't get too boring. In this video I play as the nation of Larrakia and I attempt to conquer all of Australia and then turn it into my colonial nation. So, let's see if I managed to do it! I hope you guys enjoy this series. If you enjoyed this video consider leaving a like and subscribing for more content in the future.

    Thanks for confirming a suspicion I've had for years. Yes, the AI does follow you. It happened with me and France in my game as Denmark. France rarely colonises a lot, or at all, but in my Denmark into Scandinavia game (to get the new achievements) they kept colonising everything and I had to fight a very scary France multiple times. Very painful.
    And also usually depending on where you play, I also get the feeling that one of the big guys next to you gets buffed. Because, for example, when I play far away from the Ottomans (like in Japan or something), they don't blob out too much. But when I play next to them, oh boy. I'll never forget having to fight an Ottoman empire that had EVERYTHING from Egypt, Yemen and Ethiopia all the way up to Moscow and Novgorod =D Now I always crush them the first chance I get. They're so annoying lol

EU4 colonization is just broken in most aspects. You can occupy every province in Iberia and you'll get like 30% warscore because of massive colonies.

    You actually can form proper Australia as an Australian native. The restriction on forming colonial nations these days is based on tech group. If you were to become a horde and convert to a non-native religion, when you go monarchy/theocracy/republic your tech group would change, and you'd then be able to form colonial nations. The tech group you pick up after converting away from a horde will be based on your religion (eastern for Christianity, Muslim for Muslim, ect).
