    In this video titled EU4 A to Z - I Became THE THIRD ROME As Russia I play as Muscovy in Europa Universalis 4 1.35 Domination. 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 Muscovy and I attempt to form Russia, conquer Constantinople, conquer Rome and conquer about 15 different regions in EU4. 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.

      I mean, it kinda was like that in couple places. You can go the French way of reforms where every other year the king had just a tiny bit more power until his rule was absolute or you can go the Danish way where you pretty much go from feudalism to absolutism in a month by what is really just a coup d’etat against the various estates

    Muscovy in the hands of a player is very fun, almost easy. Though playing against it is not as satisfying as having to beat the Ottomans. Who always seem to be the #1 GP in all my games. And are a pain in the behind to take down. Russia often times falls behind tech, has a hard time with embracing institutions and is too poor to afford an effective army. Which is all historically accurate. How they managed to become so huge IRL is crazy when you think about it.

    • @Pokeeko
      @Pokeeko Рік тому +1

      Ottomans are never a problem if you take care of them early, i know it depends how you are playing but even as a minor in europe is easy to screw them early, Russia is always pretty bad unless they grab trade ideas early, i notice that when they get it they are always pretty good challenge

      In reality, Russia was not so far behind in technology, as is commonly believed in Western propaganda. But the problem the Russians is that they created a first-class army with the best weapons and then began to rest on their laurels. Until the enemy surpassed them in technology and invaded Russia. Then the Russians began a feverish leap in technology and again created a better army and destroyed the enemy. And then they stopped the development of the army again... etc...

    29:05 Bold is still a trait that makes the AI declare dumb wars. I’m playing an England campaign right now and the Ottomans declared on my ally Austria(and called in no allies) in one of the dumbest wars I’ve ever seen an AI declare.
    Ottomans had 41k men and 10k manpower. Austria alone had 45k and a Hungary PU, and was allied to me with my subjects(Ireland Scotland Gascony Aragon).
    I think it was something like 50k men vs. 250k(and we had manpower to spare too) when everyone had buffed up their armies for the war and I was super confused about why they declared it. That’s when I realized he was Bold.
    Your reaction to their DoW was almost my exact reaction
