France is growing strong and it's unlikely that I will invade them now because of their 180k army, while I have 150k and not all of it can be used to attack.
Epsiode 2 part 5 - Liberating Celts
Our infamy is almost near limit thus it's time to fix economy, in last part we switched NI to NTP and enacted two decisions which made our trade income to rise above everything else, we now control 3 CoTs (one in NA, Andalucia and Gobir (Africa )), full monopoly in Gobir, almost full monopoly in NA (Aztecs are spamming merchs) and monopoly in Andalucia.
Fast look at Europe :
Strong French,medicore Austria and Bavaria, Ottomans reclaiming lands.
Year later we got DoWed by evil Austria and their HRE vassal friends.
As you see they have no navy or land connection to threat us, so we simply capture Cornwall, Malta(conquered from GB) and Venezia and wait for them to give up.Meanwhile we also centralize and are at -5 now.
After 2 years of occupation we get make nice peace deal and get new mission.
Castille is allied with Aztecs and Brunswick, they have only one army in Toledo, I dont know where is rest. We DoW Aztecs and Castille simultaneously to get separate wars.
After capturing half of country we make peace deal.
Month later we get great event which lowers our infamy by 3 for 50 ducats.
Alliance offer comes from Ottomans which we gladly accept.
Religion map, North Africa is almost converted to Sunni and reformation in Europe went rather well.
22 June 1615 we DoW Mutapa.
Now Mutapa is safe from Castille.
Now we can move to conquer rest of GB, we DoW them and move our armies through revolter state to Scotland.
These areas are so poor it is better idea to release it as vassal.
We also sponsor rebels in two remaining Scottish provinces, hopefully they will defect to them.
France lost it's DoW status which means we can start new war :
We quickly capture their Carribean islands and mainland and after white peacing his allies we get good, if not great peace deal.
Portugal is now dead and we can move to Ireland.
Sadly we havent achievet what we wanted because of sneaky Sweden.
