10. Moldova, who have been my allies since early 1400's as I wanted a buffer state between me and the late Golden Horde, and Croatia who I allied because they were spamming spy missions on me and couldn't spare the infamy to kill them. I'm preparing to take them down though.

8. Which country are you hating? I'm not hating anyone, I'm just doing my work :)

MEIOU Mod

1. Naples -> K.o.t.Two Sicilies

2. 1388

3. I conceded defeat with a +78 WS because the Iberian Alliance just would not give up! Of course, all of that was from battles on my soil, so I imagine they still felt fairly confident.
4. Not even close - I'm still clawing my way towards Free Trade, have no CoTs of my own, and can plant maybe one merchant in every fifteen right now. It's too early for colonization, and it's not exactly like taxes or early-game production are worth much.

5. Not anymore - took me eighteen years to get Castille, Portugal, and Aragon to stop killing their soldiers on me, and now I'm rebuilding my navy and letting WE fade (I'm in luck, since they've got four times as much each).

6. Now that I've secured a foothold on Sicily, I need to build a navy worthy of half of Italy. Of course, if the three Iberian states don't break that alliance it won't help anyway (250+ against 36), but it'll make me competitive again.

7. Outside of a trade war with Sicily (see discussion of what happened there above and below...), I've only had a couple of scraps with the Ottomans and a couple of fights in Northern Italy, which ended positively...but always for someone else.

8. Aragon is a pain. It still holds two territories on Sicily, as well as half of North Africa and every Mediterranean island that wasn't originally Venezian or Neopolitan. Castille, too - it's warleader of the Pan-European Alliance (see below) and has no interest in even a white peace while I'm leading at 78 WS.

9. Aragon again - on it's own, it has eighty-odd ships. But with alliances, it truly becomes a monster. All three of the Iberian states are allied, and Castille is also tied to Austria, which is tied to HREmp. Bohemia, which in turn calls Burgundy, which calls France and co., who finally are allied (don't ask me how) to England. Since the Scandinavians ripped each other apart early on, that makes that alliance one of every single Latin-tech great power.

10. I'm only still allied to Provence (PU, integration to come in 1406) and Venezia, neither of whom would do anything but feed the other side warscore if I called them in a war like that last one. Venezia also keeps stealing my war goals in the North Italian scuffles, but I won't break that alliance because their CoT is the only one where I can place any merchants.
 
1. Who are you?
Aragon

2. What year is it?
1489

3. Have you lost a war you tried to win?
I lost my first defensive war with Castille but got away with just giving up some of my SoI even though their mission was to acquire Aragon (the province)

4. Are you one of the richest countries?
Yes

5. Are you at war?
No

6. What are your main concerns?
a) One of these days France is probably going to start a war with me, but my troops stand ready and the blood that will flood the Pyrenees will be theirs, not mine...
b) The Carribbean & South America are going to be settled my me and nobody else - everybody tries to found a colony in the area is risking his throne
c) I'm trying to keep the chances to inherit my PUs as high as possible
d) I pray to all divines that my 8/8/8 heir survives until it's his turn to rule

7.Are you attacking people or being peaceful or both?
I've had my share of offensive wars but nowadays I'm only fighting little wars here and there to keep my prestige.

8. Which country are you hating?
Naples, who resisted my attempts to diplo-vassalize them again and again until they grew too big. One of these days I'll find a CB to get over there and kick their behinds...

9. Which country are you fearing?
My lovely huge blue neighbour France

10. Who are your allies?
Regular allies: none
PUs: Portugal, Castille, Granada & Cyprus
Vassals: Galicia, Ferrara, Tuscany, Genoa, Sicily, Cherokee & Shawnee
 
1. Who are you?
Savoy -> Sardinia-Piedmont -> Italy

2. What year is it?
1608

3. Have you lost a war you tried to win?
Twice. One of them was a defensive war against Austria, HRE Bohemia, huge Bavaria and some other HRE minors... I had to give up Tirol and Lienz. The second one was against Burgundy, which is slowly eating France, lowlands and Spain...

4. Are you one of the richest countries?
Yes, thanks to two COTs

5. Are you at war?
No, but I want to weaken Bavaria soon

6. What are your main concerns?
Big Bavaria and powerful Burgundy, Bohemia - Austria alliance (Bohema has just finished fighting Kazakh...) and GB who allies with every single small country near me!

7.Are you attacking people or being peaceful or both?
I tend to be peaceful, since I am bad at fighting wars(

8. Which country are you hating?
Burgundy and Austria. They tend to attack me at the same time.

9. Which country are you fearing?
Burgundy, Austria and Bavaria. Combined they are 3 times more powerful than me(

10. Who are your allies?
Switzerland was my friend since 1399 but they backstabbed me during war with Austria in 1570's. Now my allies are vassal Sicily and Morea.
 
1. Who are you?
Aachen

2. What year is it?
1699

3. Have you lost a war you tried to win?
Well, at one point early in the 15th century, England called me in a war vs France. England was the warleader and after I finally got most of southern France occupied, so we were on the winning side, they decided to white peace :/

4. Are you one of the richest countries?
Well, yeah, but that has probably something to do with the fact that I own nearly all of Western Europe.

5. Are you at war?
More or less constantly, but right now war isn't that hard anymore.

6. What are your main concerns?
Conquering the rest of Europe. With 2,4 infamy burning per year and imperialism cb not that hard.

7.Are you attacking people or being peaceful or both?
Warmongering. Infamy never reached 0 for about 200 years now.

8. Which country are you hating?
Portugal and Milan for not changing their capitals (Porto/Siena) while I dont want to conquer anything outside of Europe.

9. Which country are you fearing?
Nothing right now.

10. Who are your allies?
Nobody, I annexed all vassals and conquered the rest.
 
1. Who are you? Castille

2. What year is it? 1570 I think

3. Have you lost a war you tried to win? Nope

4. Are you one of the richest countries? Even German City states are richer

5. Are you at war? Yes, stupid France

6. What is your main concern? France obliterating me

7.Are you attacking people or being peaceful or both? Trying to be peaceful in Europe, not working

8. Which country are you hating? France, first allies, now attacking me

9. Which country are you fearing? France, Sweden, GB... pretty much everybody

10. Who are your allies? Huron, Bavaria... both useless
