After installing IN my first choice was Byzanz.
I started first 1403.
At this date the Ottoman lost a few provinces in Asia and is loated by two great rebel armies, in Europa the lost Salona to Byzanz.
After blocking the Hellespont with my Navy (the turks has only one ship), I invaded Anatolia, cause the rebell armies annilated the turkish army alone.
Two years later Anatolia was in greek hand and the rebells own the european part of the Ottoman Empire, but the ottoman goverment didn't collapse.
So I send my fleet to the harbour and let the rebel armies march to asia minor. Meanwhile nationalist rebels appear in bulgaria and albania.
After capturing the coastal provinces in Europa from the rebels, the ottomans seceed Janina, Edirne, Macedonia, Antalya and Bursa to my glorious empire.
Immidiatly I gain turkish as accepted culture, and I have 0 BB
Two years later, after losing all provinces to the rebells the ottoman goverment collapse and Bulgaria (with 5 provinces) and Albania are indepent.
So in 1411 the Ottoman Empire shrink to only 3 provinces, and few month later my Empire annexed Albania and Vasallized Bulgaria after the seceed there costal provinces.
At this time I had 13 provinces and take the role of the Ottomans, surounded only by small countries, and with over 20 core provinces left, only the sky are my limit.
I love this game!
