The UK has a decision that will simply give the islands to you after they research Nationalism and Imperialism. The AI is even more likely to do it after 1865 and if you have good relations with them.1. If I sphere the Ionian Islands, will they petition to join me? Or do I need to go to war with the UK to de-puppet them, then annex?
The only event I can think of is the one that gives you a cores on Istanbul and two other provinces you need to form the Byzantine Empire. None that make the job easier. You'll need other strong military powers to help you.2. I haven't made any progress against the Ottomans, but I've made GP by mass colonising West Africa. When it comes to tackling them, what should my strategy be? I seem to remember reading there's some event if I take certain cores, and that there was an optimum way to do so, but can't remember where.
Not that I can think of.3. The wiki seems useless compared to the EUIII one for looking up events, is there a better way than actually looking in the game files?
Paradox did add the Heavenly Kingdom in the 1861 scenario, but no events to create it if you start in the original 1836 scenario. POP Demand Mod does have a chain of events for this.Hi, after playing for a while and looking around the forums I've seen the Heavenly Kingdom in a fair few screenshots replacing China, I've not seen this happen in-game yet. Is the Taiping Rebellion that forms it part of the vanilla game (and/or AHD) or does this require mods?

Additionally: If you don't want to change the mechanics of the game using PDM, the events are also included in the New Nations Mod.
Oh that's interesting, still hasn't happened to me yet though, and it's now 1893. Reckon they still haven't researched N&I?The UK has a decision that will simply give the islands to you after they research Nationalism and Imperialism.

What regions did you take to colonize West Africa? And did you conquer anything else before that?After about 5 attempts, I've finally made progress as Greece, I now have some questions.

Pushed Education/research points techs at first, didn't bother with factories.What regions did you take to colonize West Africa? And did you conquer anything else before that?
I've tried a couple games with Greece and never got anywhere.
I usually go East from Oman too, this is the first time I've tried West Africa.Interesting. I usually try to get CB on Portugal and Spain then try to go straight for the Warri then head east. I also take concessions from Sokoto and Oman so then I can colonize East Africa around Somalia. Thanks for the reply. Next time I start up Vicky I will give your strategy consideration but for now I am CK2.
[...]If I get to 100% victory, which will be my aim, how many goals do you think I could demand?
Is there any reason to destroy/keep bankrupt factories?
Is there much to gain from using national focus to try and get factory chains? From RGO to finished product.
Do you use manual trade and what for? Do you stockpile resources to build railroads and bases or will the AI buy it on market when you order more buildt?
After colonizing what do you use your focus for as USA?
i play az Japan and since 2 years i am n°7 in the ranking, why don't i get the great power status? (westernized alredy of course, and in the sphere of usa if that matters but if i read the wiki correctly it is not cited)
