The United Republic of Africa, year 1772.

Neat! I think you could make a small exception to your continentalism and get the whole asian coast of the Red Sea.

I see Spain, Scandinavia and Great Britain formed, and the Ottos thrive despite Austria. Lovely.

Is the yellow in Siberia Muscowy in exile?

Westernized in 1480, modernized the government and the army in 1510. I wasn't on the receiving end of any wars of aggression, which surprised me to no end.

That's quite early! How did you do so many slider moves in 80 years?

Events, presumably. I westernized as Songhai in 1521, and that was only because I had 3 admin 4 sultans consecutively, events triggered that, too.

Surlely this is a typo on the date. Because no one would actually think anyone would believe that to be possible. I say he hit 4 insted of 7 on the numpad and its actually 1717, because i dont think anyone would think that 1414 is ever gonna be believed!

Well it's getting a bit off-topic but you sir have lied or forgot one thing. You my young man is using a mod possibly DAO or D&T as when I look at Scandinavia I can see the Wastelands and Finland is more pointy. But if it is D&T it could be legit.

Magnive · Feb 6, 2012

If it's D&T it's perfectly possibly. I formed Germany as Bavaria in 1417-ish, without being superdetermined to hurry up and form Germany, so if playing like Austria and abusing PUs and getting lucky inheritances, it could happen

even in D&T i'd be suprised if he could get naval and trade tech to 15 that early, much less have the years to colonize where he did, at least with a nation of that size.
could be wrong, but i'd at least like for the OP to explain how he pulled it off.

Dafool · Feb 6, 2012

Doing that in D&T would be next to impossible for that date. Forming Germany is perfectly possible, but it would require 100's of colonists colonists to have colonized that much area. Perhaps with colonists set to 400 and a lot of reloads you could pull that off, but even then, I'm inclined to believe this rather involved cheating, abusing game mechanics/bugs, or it's just a fabrication.

Is there any tutorial or wiki page on 'how to' forms PU's. Everyone here seem to conquer the world with it, but I don't get any ever

There are four ways in which you can form PU with other country.

First, you can use 'Fabricate claims' (or what it is called) casus belli and win a war with that country.
Second, you can have royal marriage and some luck when their ruler dies.
Third, you can claim the throne and you will form PU when their king dies (or succession war starts and you need to win it).
Fourth, you can claim the throne and use 'claim on throne' casus belli to win a war with them.

In D&T there are also missions to form PU with other countries.

Yep! Was thrown out of Europe in the 1600-something, and thrived on the way to Siberia.

Exactly - quite some luck was involved, I won't lie.

You forgot to colonise south Patagonia, Irian, Taiwan, that other Chinese island and the rest of Indonesia and uh.... Hawaii. 8/10 points on Ryuku WC

I happily present you sir with the De-Trolling award of 2012! Now if someone else defangs a troll in a more epic manner I will give it to them unless you can do something more epic. Congratulations!

My current project. Fully westernized, bar Military Reform, with the government reformed to a Despotic Monarchy, awaiting the tech to go Theocracy.

And yes, I did throw all my money at Castille after they conquered half my Empire. And yes, I do have cores all over their land. And yes. I will reclaim them at some point! <Shakefist>

Junuxx · Feb 6, 2012

Why Theocracy?

Nostalgium · Feb 6, 2012

Because it fits the Aztecs more than republics thematically. And I have absolutely no intention of staying as a Monarchy as an -animist- country, heh!
