Wow, a Moroccan re-reconquest, white peace with the British and somehow a 'Greek Egypt'! My only disappointment is that there's no screenshot of the new, expanded Morocco in all its majesty!
 
Their pesky Navy may cut you off from Adalusia, though.

well I've got one army to kill them with

It's rather hard to fit on the screen I could do a world map but it'll be at the end I'm almost finished
 
(end of the long haul this will be the last update but not the end of north African glory as I'm thinking of making it into my own cross game series as I play as north African countries to lead them to lofty heights of fame almost unimaginable watch this space it'll come fast)

The long haul to the end of the game sees several nations westernise Egypt who declared independence from France, my old ally Ethiopia who despite eating half of Egypt goes after more land taking Omani Somalia and Hedjaz and the northern half of Riyadh and China who does what you'll expect and bumps me out of great power status which will be a problem.

Reforms spread through out the world as many nations reform their governments including France who let women vote and me with only temporary majorities formed to pass reforms including health care pensions and unemployment payments.

v2195.jpg


the Fascists become more active as well forming a free corps to include the military in parts of the Empire in their organization and their is a small revolt by them. Larger revolts by other groups including the reactionaries also fail to have any impact. (I've forgotten what the other revolt was by might have been Jacobins but cant be sure)

However the peace in Morocco can only last so long as France declares war followed shortly by Spain who decides to repeat the Reconquista and drive me into the sea. They force me to realize that my armies need massive expansion which takes place after the war.

(no battles will be mentioned I'm growing sick of this AAR but still want to write more have an EU3 DW ARR planed so might not be as tricky)
Our warriors rallied to defend the Homeland from Invaders and smashed the Invading French and Spanish losing only 2 battles where we were heavily outnumbered and inflicted disproportionate losses on them. Needless to say we swiftly beat their armies into a bloody pulp and they both elected to withdraw from the war.

We later received several alliance requests from Denmark, Switzerland and Egypt. Although when I accepted them I had no Idea if they would hold at all.

v2212.jpg


The French never seem to let up however as they soon declare war again bringing in Allies Italy and Greece. As expected most of our allies make an excuse and withdraw from the war but for some reason the Swiss join in despite being massively outnumbered and surrounded and as expected they don't hold out for long.

v2213.jpg


During the war we gained the ability to build cruisers and Dreadnoughts as a result of a focus on the navy with all useful army techs gained and we start building some but they will never see action at all in war.

v2216.jpg


After once again trashing their armies again the French who are idiots decide to pull out of another war. This is the last war of the game and all that really happens before the end of the game is some colonial expansion plus some interesting diplomacy.

v2217.jpg


that interesting diplomacy includes alliance requests from the Ottomans (who get in a war with Ethiopia which comes to nothing) The belgians and our hated enemies the DUTCH!!! It then turns out that we are in their Sphere of influence so all is good.

Summary

Well our population has expanded massively but our own culture are the most common but make up only a quarter of the population. Second is the other group which means every group that doesn't make up one percent and so isn't a culture before African minor gets in third.

v2221.jpg


Production has expanded massively with us producing almost every product available but missing out on some like rubber and tropical wood.

v2222.jpg


Politically the largest groups and Conservative and socialists and liberals but overall I'm politically backwards but fairly advanced socially.

v2223.jpg


Unfortunately we where unable to become a great power again but hand the second highest prestige but fell behind in industrial score that doomed us to only enjoy 9th.

v2224.jpg


We did do some last minute colonising but apart from that I'll mention the more unusual things that happened in the game. Austria decided to grab 2 inland regions of Persia. Di nam near to the game end decided to go mad and grab parts of Siam after spending most of the game doing nothing. Ethiopia I'v mentioned. Russia advanced a long way into to central Asia taking land Britain normally takes and they responded by grabbing part of Finland from them. Also Romania formed but remained a Ottoman puppet.

Now I bid you farewell to my AAR as it is now completely finished
 
Congratulations in seeing this through to the end! Seeing as you're way ahead of #10, I'd say you're a demi-great power even with China kicking you out of the top 8. I must say, some of the AI expansions in this AAR are among the more unusual I've seen - the UK in Finland, Russia in north India, Greece in Egypt - and also Egypt and Ethiopia westernizing - that's something I've never seen before.

I'll be keeping an eye on the Tuareg Nomads whenever I find the time.

India was unusual as Britain had an early revolution which made India look interesting if nothing else but probably caused Russia to sense a void and leap into the area before after being beaten they didn't really do much.

I think if the game went on long Di nam would have been next to westernise they were very close but other wise it's all random
 
Yes, congratulations! A good showing all-around. Well done to hang in there even with the soul-crushing insane aggression (I don't know WHAT the USAs problem was that one time, I mean geez).
