And yeah, if the computer only had to manage one tag or two tags, and if it played truly to win, it'd solve EU4 just fine.

Not so sure about that. :) Countries is just one axis of the iteration space; another is provinces; a third the number of armies, etc. At least, without constraints on these a competent human would still beat the best AI we could conceive in a fair 1v1 fight due to the impossibility of brute force. You would have to seriously simplify the gameplay to enable deep enough searches.
