Post your MEIOU empires!

I always get depressed when I see a small reformation, one of the things that needs work IMO.

Agreed. I was hoping that me being a successful Hussite nation might make other nations turn away from the catholic church. Alot of the nations bordering me did turn protestant, but I'm not sure if thats by coincidence or WAD. I decided to use that to my benefit so alot of them are gone now. No powerful nations turned protestant though so that kinda ruined the reformation for me.

My Burgundy -> Lotharingia. I started conquering stuff late in the game, I think the trigger was my inheritance of Sweden, now I just wished I hadn't waited.

Neat Lotharingia

Ok here´s my Fezian Empire or Banu Abd al-Mumin Caliphate (Yes I have the Empire rank in Government).
And yes I have cheated a few colonist because I was pissed on the troops, each time they were rebel hunting.
When I wasn't watching they emptied the provinces of the 5000 natives.



Currently I allied with the Ottomans and Jalayarids. I managed to get a foothold in Spain through conquering the remaining provinces of Granada. Then by sheer luck Portugal and Aragon and England all got in a war with Castille.
This gave me the opportunity to get some provinces. Im a bit behind in tech though, but not by much. As you can see the reformation is beginning, the last few 10 years more and more nations have converted to the protestant faith.



Here you can see the religions in Europe. As you can see I have not actively been converting the catholic provinces. Actually I've gone for a multicultural and tolerant Empire. I have 3 tolerance for the heathens and 1 for the heretics.
I have to congratulate Gigau and his team for the excellent work on the Jizya decisions.



And finally the world map, currently France is the nations with the largest income and troops. I'm second in income but that's all. I'm mostly spending all my money on buildings.

Just a little update...

Friesland... Now proud owner of Paris!



Even though I managed to get England on my side when DoW-ing Navarra, they broke our alliances after I peace out with France (for the second time in a row thanks to them protecting Navarra



The Reformation has been going well too! With Castille, France, and Poland joining Luther. Although my junior partner Burgundy converted while under union for some reason.

Also, Hungary getting their ass kicked by Austria and Bosnia!

So far, I'm the only one colonizing although I've only colonized Cape Verde and Madeira.

Here is my Byzantine game in 1690:

Have my lands aren't even my cores or Greek, yet i am making large amounts of money and staggering amounts of manpower.

How did the reformation go?

[Tongera]

How did the reformation go?

Well Byzantium is Orthodox, so it didn't get one.

Anyhow i expanded eastwards for the first 200-300 years, i only got Malta, Sicily, Bulgaria and Montenegro later in the game.

Other countries however had a good reformation.

North and South America looks like someone dropped a bunch of different colour paint all over them. But nice little empire

I have fought about colonising, but i rather have a great land empire, stretching from Syracouses in the west to Rhagae in the east, with Tbilisi in the north and Dongola in the south, especially because i have very high production values. I doubt i have the navy size anyway to defend the colonies, especially with me going to invade the west soon and fighting a lot of wars.

Good lord, that's one powerful Russia!

[Tongera]

Good lord, that's one powerful Russia!

Don't they get as powerful in your games?

At least they aren't as powerful as me, or as rich or got more manpower

[NorwayBernd]

No, never. I've never even seen Russia form.

[Tongera]

No, never. I've never even seen Russia form.

The reason they formed is because i allied with them and helped take down the Blue Horde, Circassia and several other nations.

[Tallfellow]

In my current Ottoman -> Turkey game i'm actually helping Russia to form... Kinda like making an end game boss for me to fight

[gigau]

No, never. I've never even seen Russia form.

Can happen : Russia is forming quite nicely in my current hands-off test game :




It however might not be able to expand much further to the east, as it borders a powerful Ming... Russia might need to ally with Delhi to expand :

[Cerest]

Wow, gigau, what is the setting for those border styles (country borders bold, thick, province borders, thin (and dashed))? They look really nice!

What a beautiful looking game. Turkey is nice, kalmar union is there, russia is there, china is unified (mostly), Austria has been expanding, and southeast asia will soon be suffering a serious case of 'Delhi-belly'.

EDIT: And Hungary is small!
