Tea isn't a luxury resource. its a strategic resource. its what makes great Britain great and what fueled the greatest Empire in human history and it was the secret behind the defeat of the British in the the US, by throwing out the tea they sapped the British might.

As a coffee and tea drinker, blasphemy I know, I could use a little motivation to let go of that disgraceful bean. Congratulations on the 500k and here’s to the 1 mil before the end of the year. Your content and editing style is extremely unique and the amount of hard work you put into a single video is admirable to say the least. Congratulations!
Feels like a missed opportunity to have named your other cities "Tea Wrights Assessment Territory" and "Tea Wrights Operations Territory". I'm invested in the culture of Tea Wright qualification, ok?
Subscriber count is a roller coaster. Once you hit about 500k, you basically hit the equivalent of a "Golden Era" and subs keep rolling in until probably around 2-2.5mil and then it coasts along until you hit 3mil and slows down considerably. The Algorithm is a terrifying beast.
I have been watching your epic rise to power since you were a small lad with bellow 100k subs . I have to say it is you my good man that has got me back into tea. And the only reason you play Australia is to have the convict experience. long live the Queen.
Actually, to this day the only victory against the top difficulty AI I have was rushing a religious victory against a single opponent on a tiny map. So you vertainly _can_ do something similar against harder AIs. But yeah, his strategy would fall apart at anything above default difficulty.
Just had an amazingly delicious cup of tea whilst watching your equally delicious video. Managed to pour in an exactly perfect amount of milk and it ended up looking so pulchritudinous just like your thumbnails. My favourite part was when you started being active again after that nasty copyright strike.

Hi God
The Spiffing Brit and soon will be surpased
Excuse me you are not God.
What if you wanted to win game of civilization IV but god said: PRAY

The cup of Yorkshire tea I had while watching this was exquisite and my favorite video has to be one of the 100 hundred stat man videos
You won't get any tea.
That's cute :)
Going through a playlist, i'm on my 67th cup of tea, I can see sounds and smell colours.
2 more and you'll feel nice
Everybody loves taxation!

My favourite thing about this channel, and why I am subscribed is because of how you manage to exploit every game. It's quite breathtaking and enjoyable to watch :)
I enjoyed How To Break The Geneva Convention In Hearts Of Iron 4.
I was just Browsing the web on how to commit war crimes without anyone noticing it... And this is how I discovered your channel and became addic... Cough cough I mean found the true way of drinking TEA!!!
@Blood Dragon Well, with the Geneva convention having spies everywhere, I wanted to know if it was posible and then I found the spiffing brit.
But I still haven't found a way to commit the perfect warcrime.....
Spiff, You've overlooked a valuable ally. The Japanese! If tthere's anyone who loves tea more than the brits, it's the Japanese. Together, Tea could rule the world unaposed
Uhh... Chinese? Russians also got tea like 50 years before British.
Tea + Anime what would that possibly create?
Indians, Pakistanis, Bangladesh and Srilanka. Heck all of Asia drinks and loves tea.
Ah yes that other island nation that has a tendency to invade its neighbours, invest heavily in naval warfare and expansionist nationalism...
Russian Ivan both commuted horrible atrocities to people it wished to conquer
Fun fact: Towards the end Queen Victoria was wider than she was tall. She’s really very short.
Doubt she’s as short as me.
@@symbiotesoda1148 well I don’t know your hight but in case anyone is wondering and got no interest in googleing dead monarchs hights: she was supposedly 5 feet (1,52 m) tall
@@symbiotesoda1148 how short are you?
@@Jared-iq6ul 5”6 lmao.
I'm 6"4 and still wider than I am tall.
I don't see ghandi or an army of war elephants. This can't be CIV
Needs more nuclear war elephants
About a month-a-go I found some Yorkshire Tea here down under and it reminded me so much of my time in England and The Empire, it was and still is a glorious cuppa.
As a coffee and tea drinker, blasphemy I know, I could use a little motivation to let go of that disgraceful bean. Congratulations on the 500k and here’s to the 1 mil before the end of the year. Your content and editing style is extremely unique and the amount of hard work you put into a single video is admirable to say the least. Congratulations!
"As a coffee and tea drinker, blasphemy I know, I could use a little motivation to let go of that disgraceful bean."
Two words:
*Fermented beverages.*
Feels like a missed opportunity to have named your other cities "Tea Wrights Assessment Territory" and "Tea Wrights Operations Territory". I'm invested in the culture of Tea Wright qualification, ok?
China: Check out these boiled leaves.
England: What now?
China: TEA!
England: TEA!
England has been converted to the Church of Tea.
Who likes t
You forgot the "WHA-BAM!"
nice pfp
England: Check out this flower, smoke it!
China: What now?
England: OPIUM!
China: OPIUM!
China has been converted to the Church of Opium.
MY CUP OF TEA IS MADE FROM THE EXPLOITATION OF THE NATIVES OF VENUS
Denounce Venice
oh
@YandenGray i'm talking about the planet Venus also its spelt pronounced
You converted Hungary into Thirsty

Fascinating. This episode was only from a year ago and you’ve already gone from 500,000 to 2 Mil. Congrats man!
Subscriber count is a roller coaster. Once you hit about 500k, you basically hit the equivalent of a "Golden Era" and subs keep rolling in until probably around 2-2.5mil and then it coasts along until you hit 3mil and slows down considerably. The Algorithm is a terrifying beast.
I like that even when he needs a nondescript tea-bag photo, he still goes for the twinned square-bagged Yorkshire Tea
I have been watching your epic rise to power since you were a small lad with bellow 100k subs .
I have to say it is you my good man that has got me back into tea.
And the only reason you play Australia is to have the convict experience.
long live the Queen.
I shall protect the queen of T.W.I.T and will never die from the natural property's of tea. *Kneels in a royal fashion*
Maybe the tribe in the desert learned sailing from their ancestors when the desert was an inland sea
or from the oasis nearby
"The power of Jesus"
Missed opportunity there, my friend. Should have gone with "the power of Teasus"
Came to the comments to say the same thing.
Reaunu keves
Same here. Obviously it's Teasus. Teasus the salivator! He can walk on tea.
Newbie gamedev: I will make a balanced Gama that everybody will enjoy and thrive in.
Spiff: NATIVES and TEA!!
Thanks for an exploit strategy on how to beat easy difficulty.
Yeah. Good luck with wonders on deity
@@willingoYT Barbs on Deity would have killed him by turn 30.
Actually, to this day the only victory against the top difficulty AI I have was rushing a religious victory against a single opponent on a tiny map. So you vertainly _can_ do something similar against harder AIs.
But yeah, his strategy would fall apart at anything above default difficulty.
The difficulty system in civ is absolutely bullshit anyway, fireaxis can't make a half decent AI so they just give them some really retarded bonuses.
Me: *Opens UA-cam to watch Spif*
Also me: Why do I suddenly want a cup of tea?
I enjoyed Rise of Nations, it made me happy.. Was also the first Spiffing Brit video that I actually made a cup of tea for... And it was DELICIOUS!
Ah yes, the great British cities of Twit, Icup, and Cuk.
I bought a box of Yorkshire Tea before starting this video
I now have no tea
This is the tea content I've been longing for! Thank you, Spiff, for promoting the greatest beverage ever created (and promptly stolen by us Brits)!
As a Hungarian myself, I loved when you added in Hungarians to the match :3
"who would play as Australia?"
Australia: RELEASE THE DROP BEARS!!!!!!!!!
And emus
@@connorboles4569 Oh no. We must never release the emus. They're a nightmare to put back. We had to nuke them last time... twice
How about those gigantic spiders ?
Bruh as a uncultured swein I use to think drop bears were a thing
*300 music starts playing as the bears are released*
Just had an amazingly delicious cup of tea whilst watching your equally delicious video. Managed to pour in an exactly perfect amount of milk and it ended up looking so pulchritudinous just like your thumbnails.
My favourite part was when you started being active again after that nasty copyright strike.
The Spiffing Brit: "Who would want to play as australia"
Also the Spiffing Brit: *Plays ON a map of Australia*
Real talk though Spiffing, what is your opinion on boba tea or milk tea?
I myself have been more of a fan of Jango tea
Spiffing:Makes church of tea..
Me: What about the Church of Uni-Tea?
"I'm sorry Sweden, there is absolutely nothing you can do to stop it, there is no counter, there is absolutely nothing I'm afraid."
Sweden: have you heard of our lord and savior coffee?
Coffee, my God this is good. Why I think this is what happened to the entire world except the British empire.
I drink French Vanilla Cappuccino and Peppermint Tea with Honey. Screw coffee (unless it's vanilla,) and screw any bland tea.
More likes theirs no way to stop and no counter to Sweden turning into a Muslim country
