1492 scenario

[unmerged(12544)]

I found some inconsistencies of this scenario with my history book and also your events-file.

1)Spain and Aragon were still seperate countries, although ruled by one king/queen.
2)BRI was already annexed by FRA in 1491.
3)In the event-file FRA can inherit PRO in 1451, but it was annexed in 1481 by FRA.
4)AUV was not annexed until 1527.

And one suggestion:
-ARG should inherit NAP in 1504

Gamebalance.

And number one not correct.

ARG shouldn´t inherit anything BTW as it was non existant as a country, if you define country as an entity with his own embassies -external policy- and armies. It was a as a country as Wales is today.

In 1504 the SPANISH armies (ah maninly with castilian and italian troops) lead by the CASTILIAN El Gran Capitán happened to win the frenchies the 3rd italian war, no more.

He´d already won the first and the 2nd before, BTW.

And the sig is one EGC quote

ARG

What strikes me, is the difference between the 1419 and the 1492 scenario. From 1419 on, you usually wait until 1515 to inherit ARG. In the 1492 scenario, you have SPA and ARG already united. I think both should be in line, either way (united in 1479 or in 1516). As far as I know - was there the marriage of Isabel and Ferdinand II. They agreed to lead both countries together. But actually Ferdinand II was only responsible for the foreign policy and Isabel for everything else. So in fact she ruled both kingdoms.

Should be in 1476.

In fact Fernando wrote:

"The pride of my life is having reunited Spain".

Morover, as the Royal Academy of History (spanish one) states, kingdom was definitely reunited (that´s why when Felipe the Handsome came he quit and went to Naples, ): should Fernando have had a son, he would not have inherited Aragon, which belonged to Juana and the grandson Carlos. He would have inherited Naples.

So, then SPA should inherit ARG in 1476 and not in 1516.

 

[Amadís de Gaula]

You´re right. We have the AoE scenario correct and the GC too late.

It´s been discussed sometimes, anyway. One of the changes to make should EU3 GC starts also in 1419.

In 1419 Naples will almost never become part of eventual Spain (due to Aragon vassalizing it and then Castille annexing Aragon, or Naples being patritioned). Maybe inheriting it directly should be the option A instead of vassalizing it. Then Spain would more likely end up with Naples.
