In this video I make the strongest formable in Victoria 3, super Germany. If you form this within the first 10 years of the game you'll be competing with Britain the whole time.
I'm making this video with the assumption that paradox will fix the "release nation" war goal shortly.
Once that happens this strategy will work to form Super Germany.
Also in case you thought this was intentionally in the game, here is a bug report confirming it has to do with contradictory war goals:

I can't believe this is the only game that has Germany, if only it existed in real life...
Ikr, they should add forming Germany to Overwatch next.
@TobyYellsAtThings I heard EAFC 26 is meant to have the option to form germany
I assume they shift their capital to the North Rhine, thus preventing Westphalia from being released.
I believe that's accurate. It's a bug that used to be in the game that got reintroduced when 1.7 released. I'm assuming it'll get patched quickly which will then make this a viable strategy.
@@TobyYellsAtThings This isn't a bug, but it does come down to how the game iterates through the war goals to enforce them. The conquer states go first I suppose, or at least earlier than release nation. So like @J_GamerSP said their capital then moves, you can't release a nation containing their current capital. Same happens if you've ever tried to conquer Home Counties and liberate Ireland in the same war against GB their capital almost always moves to Ulster.
@@blockchiken It's not a bug in the sense that you should be able to release the capitol, but it is a bug that the release nation is supposed to happen before the take state. It was a reported bug back when the game first launched, I left a link to that bug report at the end of the video description, if you want to see it.
Realistically if Prussia had lost Berlin at any point in time they would have shifted their capital to Königsberg, they shoud just do that instead
Toby got a sponsor. Congrats. dude.
Thank you. 2 years of work is finally paying off.
* yelling at you in the comments *

This is technicly alt history that could have actually happened. It was called the Großdeutsche Lösung or great germany solution. 1848 they discussed if they should form germany with or without austria getting involved. They decided against it becouse of the current economic and military struggle it had at the time and also the rilvary with prussia. So in the end they dicided on the lesser german solution.
It's not like the question was settled after 1848, it's just that Austria wasn't able to be the one uniting Germany because they lost a war against Prussia, which led to the formation of Austria-Hungary.
I wonder if this is better than forming super Germany through Prussia. I can often get super Germany as Prussia in the early 1850s, and Prussia starts with a tech and law advantage over Austria.
With proper rng I think they are equally as fast because the bottleneck is the 75% nationalism check.
And I thought the 1950s meant that was slow.
@@carking0138 he prolly meant 1850s lol
@@carking0138 Whoops, corrected
@@baseball_tomorrow-sv9tk Nah, you're good.
Restoring the Holy Roman Empire by the mid-late 1840s? Awesome! Can you do a Mega USA run? How big can the USA get before things breakdown? Can you unite all of the Americas from tip to tip under the Stars ‘n Stripes?
Hey Toby, Could you play as an Island Nation and take on the most powerful country.
Maybe, depends on if i can come up with a good video with them or not. Hawaii might be fun to play.
@@TobyYellsAtThings please do! Reverse colonise america haha
Napoleon be shiver me timbers in his grave with you reviving HRE lol
You should play with the mod "hail columbia" it is absolute peak. It's an American flavor pack that's super good. Also make sure to get repeaters technology to colonize states with effective native resistance much easier!
Just wanna say that I just starting watching your videos and they've help a lot with learning Victoria 3, I just got the game and you're always teaching me something new. Thanks Toby!
Congrats on the sponsor!
Thanks
So I just followed you step by step and while Westphalia DID liberate, Pomerania DID NOT and remained part of Prussia.
*yelling about the bug fix being brute force* btw thanks so much, loved the vid!
Investment agreements also increase leverage to varying degrees if you need a little bump (referencing 18:29)
Is it me or dose every historical or geographical youtuber is sponsored by world of war tanks
Lots of overlap between map gamers and military history buffs
@@trite4654 exactly
Good guide, could follow the beginning easily. Sadly I did not manage to get even close to the 23 states supporting me, at all. Prussia and Westfalia flat out refused to support me despite having 80 Relations. RIP I guess.
i added both liberatings of pommerania and westphalia as primary war goals and it liberated them both!!
15:28 don’t you not take infamy in a civil war if one side pledges to be your protectorate?
That's correct. But I already had high infamy which gives subjects a lot of liberty desire, so it's hard to keep them happy.
@@TobyYellsAtThings ahhh gotchu, and u got Hanover later anyways so it didn’t really matter
Let's goooooooo pog he has a sponsor
Great video, good job! I love Giga-Germany formation speedruns, I did one myself a couple yrs ago on the release patch, back when you didn't have the 75% nationalism requirement which is probably the main bottleneck, and I got it in '41. I'm not sure how much of the tactics I used back then are still applicable, but I may give it a shot to see if I can beat your time :)
Bro im litterally in the military, first thing I see after a hell of a day is your video, love you bro
Don’t die in war my guy good luck
I wish you luck, I've got buddies in the military that tell me how much it sucks. Happy to make your day better.
@TobyYellsAtThings well they're right, it do suck. There are benefits but might as well get out once you get your GI Bills
I will never make you cry Toby! Keep making great content!
Thats not a bug the capital of prussia moves to a westphalian state so u are not able to release them
While that is indeed the cause of the problem it isn't intentional in the game's code. I confirmed this before releasing the video but there was a bug report back in 2022 when the game launched that brought this up and the response confirmed it was indeed unintentional. The bug was fixed but as is common it managed to sneak back in a recent update.

omg my rng didnt work like you said it would. i renounce RNGesus.
Gotta pray to paradox instead so they fix the game.
@@TobyYellsAtThings pre-congrats on 25k, because i know youll make it
I cannot belive you know that you never get infamy from making subjects if they sway you in a diplo play
If you are a Democratcy or Council republic, you can get French as accepted culture as well.

"You can fit _so_ many Polands in this bad boy"
The alternative would be liberate the rhineland instead of westphalia.
I think that that should be more consistent, considering the fact that westphalia often becomes the capital of Prussia upon losing brandenburg, which would stop the release of Westphalia.
How do you force the liberation of Westphalia?
For the purpose of the video I switched to play as Prussia and manually liberated them. You won't get any achievements if you do this but if that's a problem for you, you can take some extra time to fight Prussia again and liberate it a second time.
@@TobyYellsAtThings somehow i cant, since prussia doesnt own the full 3 states, lippe and schaumburg lippe own 2 split states
I believe, please correct me if I'm wrong, but the reason why Westphalia doesn't get liberated is because when you take Berlin, if the capital gets put in Westphalia, then the "liberate country" wargoal is invalidated and does not happen.
Where was Prussia's capital after the first attempt's war?
That's correct, there capitol does move to Westphalia and causes the game to break. This was a bug in previous versions of the game that was patched before and has only recently snuck it's way back in. I wanted this video to last a while so I made the video as if the bug had been patched, that way I don't have to update it after a bug fix patch.
0:16 erm actually eu4 lets you form germany aswell🤓
The only game where Germany actually forms instead of Prussia bashing it’s head into a wall over and over until they become a minor power
TOBY! i challenge you to play the nation of sikkim and make it somewhat powerful.
Can you do persia?
Great vid btw
You can simply take some province that is not Brandenburg, thus does not move their capital at peace deal, the simple fix from PDX side is to make Liberate execute BEFORE taking states, BUT that might create a shitton of new problems as (As far as I remember) people can add conquer state for states part of a country that is to be released meaning the conquer wargoal would no longer target the war target but the released nation, making the wargoal not work (for obvious reasons)
Actually that's a really good point. Really you just need any set of war goals that reduces Prussia to a minor power without rivalling them and you'll be good.
if you at some moment puppet switzerland you can form hre easily and core piedmont
I think prussia is the best but i didnt see anyone play in the way i play and here is what i do:
1:first we have a shortage of grain so we can use the corn laws,menwhile i try to pass colonial reasetment and improve relations with the great power and austria
2:i use the trick to dismantle india and get a free port in china
3:once my relations incresed enought i try an alliance with russia to preven the defensive pact with austria and if france is in 8 relations use the free naval invasion in colombia,if you have some colonies in africa you can change them for french,british and dutch guyana and integrate them.
4:from day 1 i star to built a fleet of 10 ships and one military dockyard and and focus all my initial indistralization in silecia and deleating the construcction outside it and rebuild it in the state for the cost and output.
5:if you puppet lubek you can force a diplo for both danish states(before improbe relations with them
6:then you launch the leadership and raise conscription with the aditional wargoal of reparations
7:after the war i flood the austrian market and start both bankrolling and lobby and improve relations with austria and wait
8:form super germany
9:when you get the market liberal junker pass laize faire and free trade not homesteading.
9:before puting the market liberal in your goberment expell your actual leader and he is a moderate so he is going to change ideology once out the country(usually a radical)and then make the maeket liberal your junker lider and pass the laws and reintroduce the new radical agitator and after five years make him your leader and pass universal sufrage and you would get the event taht change everione in radical get the right assembly and garanted libertis and the have fun
I get all of that in the 47 and 48 what do you think?
off topic, toby what is your plan in vic 3 mp this week? australia asking for future potential cooperation
Definitely not steal pops from Spain until I'm a major power and break free.
I would never do that specific thing.
I've restarted like 5 times so far and there's literally no way I ever get an opportunity to ally Russia. I'm at -115 even with an obligation....
Subscribed, I love supergermany
It's here!
I feel like Prussia is still the better candidate given how ahead it is in the tech tree
Peak cinema returns
w sponsors you gonna make it
i will help you get you out of purgatroy because you helped me form Yugoslavia. subscribed!
Thanks, it's cold down here.
Can you form the greater east Asia co-prosperity sphere?
Luxembourg lives...this time
omg new Toby video Pog
You can liberate the Rhineland instead of Westphalia, then it should work as well and its almost the same Provinces
If they actually release then yes go for it.
Cool. Very nice.
Now let's see Super Germany forming with French and Hungarian as primary cultures.
Impossible with current mechanics. Unless Turtle Island can form European States which I can neither confirm nor deny.
@@YoghurtKiss I've done it before
Edit: Not the Turtle Island part
"That made my power block black why😢"
"We want be white😊"
22:50 You shouldve waited until 30 relations before absolving obligation, it would've taken 10months of improving relations at most. You were a little too impatient
imagine being 40. couldn't be me.
The passage of time depresses me too Toby
Low key it actually does. Just trying to find time to do all the things I want to do in life is challenging.
Sadly I have already subscribed to your channel ;).

How did you release Westphalia? I've looking through the console commands and I can't find anything.
I switched to Prussia and did it manually.
@@TobyYellsAtThings Ok, second question, it says that Prussia doesn't control all of Westphalia's states so it can't release it. Is there a way to get around this or am I boned?
@@mcmann7149 You may have to move Prussia capitol if you haven't already, if that doesn't work you can get a similar result by releasing the Rhineland
@@TobyYellsAtThings I just got lazy and transferred the state that Westphalia needed
Yeah.. tried this multiple times, the bug keeps happening. So the guide is sadly unuseable for now haha
from other comments, you might try releasing Rhineland.
@@TobyYellsAtThings Tried that as well, but it won't release. Unless there's specific order of actions of it to happen.
See I got Westphalia to release but Stettin in Pomerania became the Prussian capital and didn't release.
@@SadisNic How? I even tried after the patch, Westphalia won’t release
@@DaniTheHero I've got like 50 hours in vic3, I can't give you specifics lol all I know is I followed what Toby did except I forgot to damage relations with Prussia for about a two weeks and I got good RNG in the war and took Bavaria about 4 months earlier which helped me take Prussia about 4 months earlier. I got Westphalia but I since Pomerania didn't liberate instead Prussia was still a great power resulting in the same outcome
This is cool
The Ludi approach is much easier, just use console commands.
Does he do that nowadays?
Yay
Hi Toby!
Hello Potato4life
Today I learned that Im westphalia
Ludi Says you can do it in three years.How is that
You'd need a shit load of luck, but it's technically possible. You'd be at the mercy of the German minor powers researching nationalism.
19:09
Why not release Rhineland instead of Westphalia?
When I tried it it gave me the same bugged results so I didn't bother, but if you can get it to work by all means go for it.
@@TobyYellsAtThings In my own experience, I played as Bavaria, and when Prussia launched the Brothers War, I sided with Austria and in the peace deal, Austria took Silesia, while I released Rhineland and took Westphalia for myself. This was enough for Prussia to eventually fall out of GP status a few months later.
As far as avoiding the bug, maybe just don't take Brandenburg but instead release Rhineland and Westphalia simultaneously. If its not possible, then maybe just release Rhineland and take Westphalia yourself, or give it to one of the German minor states.
This EU5 already sale?
Sorry sorry i though this video is EU5, because he dont make economy plan for that nation lol
Toby, I don't know wether you see this comment or not but can you from the commonwealth using krakow
At some point yes, I just need to figure out a good way of doing it.
You sound like rat knight
GB joined Prussia so I called in Russia. Prussia backs down so only Pomerania is released. :(
Big Germany, add like
Hey! Im gonna be 40 one day! You got a problem with me?
just skip it and go straight to 50

comment for mr.algorithm
The Comunnity in World of tanks might be that big. But it is also Very Very toxic to new players and players that just are not good at the game. I know cause i played it for a long time and finally got tired of the toxic stuff from the other players. But other then the toxic player base the game is very fun.
Usually when I play games like that I just hop on with my buddies and ignore everyone else. I find it a lot more fun that way.
YELL AT U IN THE COMENTS
Germany? What imaginary country is that? And why does Vicky 3 let you form it?
Someone at paradox got their fanfiction into this game. I'm all for creative freedom but this is too far.
I'm on my 15 attempt.
It doesn't work on ironman, you need to cheat to get what you did work
I learned that it's a consistent bug with how the game handles war goals. It doesn't execute them in the right order causing the capitol to shift to Westphalia, causing the liberate country cb to break. I'm not sure how long it will take them to fix this.
I love your videos (Smithy responded to me, will you?)
Thanks, and also...
No I will not.
It is not quite Super Germany, because you lack the Netherlands, Belgium and Switzerland. I would also argue the Baltic states would be necessary along with Bosnia, Serbia, Montenegro, Poland, Ukraine, Belarus, and the remaining parts of Romania. And along with that I would grab North Italy, which is Tuscany, Piedmont and the Poe Valley. You don't need Southern Italy and if you wish to respect Papacy which is very much critical, then you need to leave the Papal States alone. You can have them under your Sphere along with Southern Italy. May take Corsica but leave Sardinia and Sicily alone if not under the same sphere of influence. I wouldn't take Albania, Bulgaria or Greece, but I would have them under my Sphere and the same is true for Anatolia/Turkey and the Caucasus which I would make independent of Russia. I would certainly nab the entire Jutish peninsula leaving Denmark as just those Island next to Sweden on its Southwest side. It is not necessary to grab France, but maybe break it up and also put each piece under my sphere of influence would be idea. Same is true for the Nordic Countries which are already broken up or would be. I would also break apart Spain too and the United Kingdom, which would become a divided Kingdom. Ireland independent along with Scotland and Wales, but I would have a strong positive relationship with the English as they are fellow Germanic people and they could be of use as a strong ally, just not a unified one with the rest of the British Isles. We don't want rivals, just allies.
We would definitely Germanize the Gepids in Hungary make them realize their German blood even if they prefer horse archer blood.
Slavs are basically Germans in denial much like those Gepids, so I would Germanize the Serbs, Montenegrins, Bosnians, Croats, Slovenians, Poles, Czechs, Belarusians, Ukrainians and Slovaks. Bulgarians can continue being Slavs, even though they truly are not outside of language. Thracians.
Danes, Dutch, and Flemish are close enough to Germans that it wouldn't really matter. Northern Italians were once Lombards, so we'll just remind them of that.
Again, we could take France, but I rather not have to deal with that Quagmire of a mess. Best to leave it broken with the rest of Europe. Easier to control.
I would turn West Asia, South Asia and North Africa into protectorates. I would colonize the rest.
Wow. This method did NOT work. Did you lie to me?
There is a very high chance this won't work until they patch the "release nation" bug out of the game. It's a known bug so I'm hoping it's fixed next patch.
@@TobyYellsAtThings I was just kidding, don't even have the game lmao (far too expensive). Loving the videos recently, and congrats on the sponsorship. :)
@@WelshBlades Thanks, I appreciate it. yeah I wish the game was a bit less expensive.
@@TobyYellsAtThings Paradox will never ever have a decently priced game and DLCs lol. Although, that's just the common theme within the gaming industry now, everything is very expensive.
