Hello, and welcome to my first AAR. I’ve always enjoyed forming the Netherlands out of Gelre and Friesland, so I wanted to see how the new features and earlier start date in IN affect the process. This will be a history-book AAR, but I'll try branching out into other styles in later chapters. We’ll be following the Duchy of Brabant as it struggles to unite the Low Countries against the expansion of Burgundy and build a United Kingdom of the Netherlands. Later, the United Kingdom will make a name for itself in the world, building an overseas trading empire and promoting the Protestant (Justifier) faith.
EDIT - I'm making a minor mod to the game, removing the ability for religious rebels to defect to another nation, because I got tired of Nova Scotia defecting to Hainault and Brazil to The Knights
