spl, just thought you'd find this interesting:

Its 1611 in my GB game, and I was looking at the Holy Roman Empire, and I noticed Moldavia was an elector! First of all, they survived to 1611. They aren't anyone's vassal or anything. In fact, Austria guarantees their independence. It seems they are fairly safe.

Unfortunately, I don't have a screenshot.

Nice! Currently the best surviving nation in my game is Burgundy. It's around 1530, and they're one of the largest countries, having taken most of France, Austria, Denmark, and they're scratching Sweden.
 
now who was it saying that Moldavia was a complete wreck and could never succeed. Well hah to them, the AI somehow figured it out.

I suspect they were vassalized at one point and then got released, but does the AI release vassals?

The AI releases vassals all the time, but they usually reannex them eventually.

Actually, I don't think that they release them except when forced to as part of a peace settlement.

I see the ottomans do it all the time, but since most of their vassals are wrong-religion, they cannot be re-annexed

If they're released as part of a peace settlement, the country that forced their release is their new ally. If the country releases the of their own free will, they become that country's vassal. I've seen both on many occasions.

I have seen Mughal Empire in two of my games. In the other Timurid Empire formed it and then they went on a conquest party in the middle east.
Haha, oh yeah. Currently, nothing is as it seems in my game. Burgundy, which is usually always the tiny vassal of France country, is now close to vassalizing France, and Austria. Meanwhile, the Ottomans, who are usually eradicated by Hungary, have been completely destroyed by Kazan. I'll grab some pictures of the colorfull map i have :p

Look who Orissa has been at war with lately.

Always funny to see the pope as papal controller. Who does he think he is?

:rofl:

Mazovria occupied something!

So did Naxos - except they annexed it!

Fear the Irish!

I think the fact he's on his seventh King Charles is far more of a feat, given the relatively early date (1606).

The sad thing is that Carlos I-VI were all damn good, with Carlos II or III being a 6/8/7 superman. In the 70 years since, I have yet to get another Carlos.
 
Tver, hasn't been annexed and has gained some provinces!
