So trying a game and... wow.

Just wow :eek:hmy:

Bohemia, Poland, Austria, Venice, ALL rival me and Venice even allies with Austria (lol).

So now I understand why the AI always allies France. How the hell do you get AI countries to stop rivalling you? There are missions which require you to have a friendly Austria...

AI Hungary always gets absolutely trashed too, thanks to being sandwiched in between Ottos, Austria, and Poland. I'm not really sure what could be done about Hungary, but the state it's currently in is just a little silly. (Also I think it's preposterous that the BASQUE, a people that speak one of the only known languages in the whole world with no relatives, are in a culture group but Hungary is not.)

Once upon a time, Hungary was in one of the Slavic culture groups. Hungarian nationalists whined. Look where we are now!

Hungary is too weak. They get roflstomped by the AI neighbours every game. Perhaps some manpower and forcelimit buff would do them good.

France and Burgundy like them, and that's a bad thing for their enemies.

Yep. A French alliance means gg no re for Hungary's enemies.

That´s a very monochromatic way of playing. I´m interested if at least I can get rid of rival status with, say, Poland.

If I rival a nation the AI rivals too and increase relations to, say, +50 will the AI choose another rival?

Also Hungary´s manpower is laughable. Only one (yes, one) province has more than 100 manpower. Lol, just lol.

I would agree Hungary starts a bit too weak. They were absorbed into Austria but this only happened after the ottomans nearly conquered Austria something I have never seen in many games of EU4.

They could be in the same culture group as the Finns and the Urals.

Hungarians are only remotely related to the other Uralic languages, and have no actual cultural or even clear linguistic similarities with the Finnish or Uralic peoples. Norwegian and German are closer related than Hungerian and Finnish.

Hungary actually do have linguistic similarities with the uralic languages but that's doesn't change the fact they exist in game to be craved by their neighbors

To tell the truth Nowegians are (IRL) germanic people. Even more, denmark/south scandinavia is where germanic started.
