    this is really easy on older patches actually, hence the medium ranking. You could become a major power as a protectorate, and algeria used to start out mostly unified.

      Algeria on older patches also starts with Interventionism which for a country with so many other backwards laws is actually a huge leg up. I did this, along with American Territory and An Empire Under the Pun back on 1.2

    This achievement used to have a wrong description. It said something like "become a major power as Algeria" or "form Algeria and become a major power" or something along those lines.
    When I was doing it I was allied to GB at first, but the turned hostile when I refused to join their power block. France was allied to Prussia and Russia, so there wasn't any chance of me getting the Barbary Coast militarily. I allied and joined France's power block instead (trade league, so no risk of subjugation), hoping to somehow trade their coastal cities. Stuff like this used to be very easy on older patches, but then they changed the AI behavior so great powers no longer offer their territory for help against a native uprising xD (which is a good change of course) So they didn't want my help in any war and I started doing random colonies all around the world, hoping that I could trade some of them with France. Nope, even if the colonies had much higher population and GDP than French posessions in Algeria, they didn't want to switch them. I effectively gave up on the achievement but went to reach the end date anyway. Reaching major power rank and getting recognized was pretty easy, but I just couldn't form Algeria and France was really strong with equally strong allies. Then, pretty close to the end date, some kind of massive world war happened (I don't remember the details) and France wanted my help for an obligation (they didn't want my help in any previous war). I can't remember if Frane won or lost the war, but it was weakened by it either way. And for a short time window, I was able to trade Algiers for some land in Indonesia. And I was surprised that I got the achievement. It was later that they changed the description from "as Algeria" to "retake Algiers".

    I enjoy your videos sir! Keep it up.
    A couple comments you said which I think are interesting and may require some perspective, and forgive me, I'm ad libbing here:
    1.) Why existing trade routes don't disappear after conquest
    I think that is pretty typical from a historical precedent. Unless the new ruling power wants to shut off trade entirely, which has happened before (looking at you China and Japan). Existing trade routes tend to persist.
    2.) Why after releasing a country why do they not like me immediately.
    That's pretty self explanatory. What you just did is conquer a sovereign nation. And in a short span of time you give them some autonomy back, while making them pay you money. Who would like that? Hell we fought a revolution over taxes. I just found that funny.
    Keep on keepin on man! Have a good one.

    • @TobyYellsAtThings
      @TobyYellsAtThings  Місяць тому +2

      Mainly just for gameplay reasons, inheriting trade routes is annoying because I just have to go an cancel them anytime I conquer a small state. Also releasable subjects give the exact same relation value whether you just conquered them, conquered them 50 years ago, or released them from your core territory. It's not a big deal but is just an annoyance because who isn't going to immediately raise relations the moment you release a subject? I view it as a quality of life change.

      @@TobyYellsAtThings When I did American Territory back in 1.2, Texas beat Mexico, and then I conquered Texas myself, and then an anti-slavery revolt in the US happened in 1842 that was very evenly matched with the South which I exploited to get my independence and take Arkansas. After that it was just consuming Mexico and building up to take down America myself chunk by chunk. I will say though that despite my insane luck (on my fourth attempt), it took me until December 29, 1935 to actually finish them off.
      As for An Empire Under the Pun, when I did it the first time, I started by conquering the territory that is modern Pakistan, puppeting Afghanistan and Persia, and then transfering the British Raj to me in the middle of Britain being busy with wars against three other great powers.
      Neither achievement is easy, but An Empire Under the Pun was a lot easier and less luck based than American Territory in my experience. Hopefully this helps you to do it.

      Honestly I don't fully know how it works in great detail, but you are right, it would usually be better to have as many troops as possible fighting with good offense at once. It's kind of a pain to remove generals from an army though so I don't do it much. Normally I'll just promote the good offensive general up so they bring more troops with them.
      The benefit of having many generals is that you can launch attacks faster, each general has to fill up the bar once to launch an attack, so if you have say 2 armies with 4 generals a piece, you could launch attack 8x faster than you could with just one general.
