Hi, This AAR is about from Grand Campaign playing as Poland-Lithuania Commonwealth. AI is set to wild and difficulty level is the most difficult. I played without reloading. Plz let me know if you like it or not, what is wrong with it and should I continue. It is my first attempt on AAR so be gentle with me. 
In 1492 a.d. Poland has 350 ducats, military tech level 2, fleet level 0, stability +2, trade tech 0, and infrastructure tech 1. All territories have minimum walls with the exception of Pripet which has none. Western half of the country is Roman Catholic, eastern is Orthodox and One province in south east is Muslim.
Army consists of 150k where half is cavalry. No artillery yet because of tech level is only 2. I have no fleet or General to lead my army.
Journal of the noble Kolapk family. volume I . 1492- 1539 a.d.
Year 1492a.d.
In January of this year I took position as Kings canceller. He trusts me in helping him to rule this great nation and lead it to prosperous future. We talk all night to discuss future plans and to decide who is our worst enemy. After many barrels of beer on few nice girls from the kitchen we made decision take Silesia back from Bohemia. Next day we send diplomats to Saxony and Bayern to forge the alliance. To our great surprise Hanssa asked to join us as well.
I decided that we should put all the ducats into stability and army tech in preparation for the war with Bohemia. Huge amount of money was spend on upgrading walls in Basserbia and Krakow. The King is wishing to secure southern border with Muslim Turkey. I send orders to 3 armies to move closer to border with Bohemia.
Year 1493 a.d.
We discovered Persian Capitol and decided to exchange knowledge with Pasha. He did agree to that proposal and now we know all the lands in the middle east. We use that new knowledge to barging with Spain, Portugal and France for their maps. King is shocked to discover how big is the world and how mush behind we were with discoveries. To my great disappointment two very dutiful girls which I was spending late nights were send to marry Hungarian King and Venetian Merchant. It did rise our popularity in those lands but it lower my standard of loving for few days. What will you not do for your country. Also six of our merchants decided to go to Venice to obtain portion of that market.
Year 1494 a.d.
King send one aristocrat to France with intention of marrying him with French woman. I personally think that is waste of time. I never saw that man flirting with women, but he did spend a lot of time in armies barracks during the night. He ether likes to hear solders snoring or he is very sick in the head. The pope which I don't like decided to accept treaty of Tordesillas. What a idiot!!! If he thinks that Poland will stand for it he is more crazy than I imagined. We will follow it now,but when we ready to colonize new lands we will do so. Also another 5 traders moved to Venice. Researchers discovered new army tech so king took loan to form Artillery corps.. I still like man slathering each other face to face better than blowing stuff up.
Year 1495 a.d.
After discovery of Persian capitol we did send 5 trades to a market center in that city. We have maximum amount of traders in Venice now, so expansion into middle east is welcome by our traders. This market is second largest that we know after Venice with 280 ducats a year.
Austrian bustard Duke has declared war on Bohemia. It did upset the King very much because he considered it Polish sphere of influence. We were preparing for this war during last three years but we did not plan to start it so soon. Austrian attack did throw our plans to shitt house outside the royal castle. King ordered one army of 36k with 50 guns and 21k infantry to move from Krakow to Moravia. I dispatched second army of 35k with 40 guns and 19k infantry into Silesia from Western Prussia. Third army of 27k , 18k infantry, no guns was ordered to wait in Posen as a reserve. First army after reaching Moravia found out that Austrian forces already occupied it. In a view of this situation I suggested to send this army to Erz province. Second army after three months of bombarding Silesian capitol achieved total control over that province. King dispatched victorious force into Bohemia. At this time Saxony and Bayern are besieging Sudetenland.
Year 1496 a.d.
Austria accepted peace offer form Bohemia in return for control over Moravia. Saxony and Bayern also agree to a separate peace in return for Sudetenland and 182 ducats respectively. First Polish army took Erz and was send to help their brothers in taking Bohemian capitol. The reserve army from Posen is also sand to help because of shortage of infantry in attacking forces. The attrition and storming walls killed more than 25k, most of which was infantry.. In November of this year we did annex Bohemia, Silesia and Erz. In celebration I drunk so much beer that the whole next week was a blur. Also a small note for the future generation 'beautiful girl is not the best medicine for head pains that follow.'
Year 1497 a.d.
I ordered construction of better walls in Bohemia province to secure our southern border. At this time we are spending most of income on stability in the country which helps preventing a rebellions. Unfortunately it is not progressing as fast as we would hope. The only Muslim province in our Kingdom rebelled and was punished for it by kings army. We killed every man in 9k rebel army. By the end of a year stability did go up to +2 only to drop next month to +1 because of bad internal policy. As far as I am concerned the policy is to nice for those aristocratic bustards which want more power. My idea of policy is:' obey or die'., very simple to follow. We spend most of ducats on raising armies and to send 3 traders to Persia.
Year 1498 a.d.
Very warm year without much action. King decided that after sending maximum number of traders to Venice and Persia we should expend into Flanders. He dispatched six traders to that port with the intention of gaining more market share.
Bohemia revolted and was pacified by local garrison. 16k rebel army had no chance with 27k royal troops. I think that Bohemians should spend more energy making their excellent beer than planning rebellions.
Year 1499 a.d.
After paying 200 ducats back to a lender, the treasury had only sufficient amount to finance trip for two traders to Flanders. Stability raised to +2 this year raising countries output and lowering possibility of rebellions. King did send very troublesome boys from aristocratic families to England, Scotland and Baden in hope that they will die there and never come back. In the summer the Bohemians drank too much beer and rebelled for the second time. Unfortunately drunk man have no chance to win with well mustered armies. After that rebellion some of them decided that they wish to move to different land. They formed three groups of colonists that wait to be send into unknown. I wish all rebels did that before starting rebellion.
Year 1500 a.d.
King decided to send one group of colonists to Indian province of Cochin, and six traders to Flanders. For the rest of a year he did nothing except abuse his body by drinking with everybody and sleeping with anybody.
Year 1501 a.d.
God punished our king for his evil ways. He died in January and left the crown for that weak, stupid boy Alexander Jagielonczyk. God save us, we are in trouble now. This man thinks only about new toys and nothing else. I just hope that he will treat his new wife like his favorite toy.
I send another five traders to Flanders in the quest of increasing profits from that market. I also arrange marriage with Hessen, Hanover and Wittenberg. I was very surprised to find out that King ordered construction of better walls in Wieliki and Silesia. He may turn out OK after all. The colonization attempt failed miserly. I decided not to send more colonist for now, it is a waste of hard earned money.
Year 1502 a.d.
King decided that we need to improve our autocratic system. He ordered to build new, larger government offices in every province of the kingdom. I explained to him that such a move will raise chances of a unrest and rebellions but he ignored me. Only after finding out that we can now finance Marshals office I did not have the need to kill him with my sword. To speed up construction of Government and Marshals offices I decided to take a loan at the beginning of every year. I also did send two trades to Flanders.
Year 1503 a.d.
We took another loan to speed up modernization of the country. I also tried to open new market by sending six traders to Genoa. I had the interesting talk with the our Queen. She is very smart and cunning individual if not one which smells like a fish. I suggested more baths but received cold stare.
Year 1504 a.d.
After finding that we lost some of our traders in Flanders I immediately dispatched five more in hope of minimizing financial loses. Our traders are able to benefit from better trade technology (2) now. I hope it will raise our profits drastically because of the loans we took before. I believe that Queen dose not like me after my bath suggestion. She conspirers ageist me with other nobles at the royal court.
Year 1505 a.d.
Dazing merchants asked me to finance another five traders to Genoa. I agreed to that proposal because it benefits Kingdom also. ( I do like two girls they offered to me in exchange for my support even better). Bohemians rebelled again, and again we killed whole rebel army. It was bloody battle which cost us 8k infantry. King ordered to raise more troops in that province. Queen still smells like a fish. I do not understand how the king can sleep in the same chamber. I hope she will die soon, the air in a castle would be so much fresher.
Year 1506 a.d.
Hurray!!!! The King is dead. Long live the new king Zygmund Stary. He dose not like his mother and just for that he has my full loyalty. He likes to swim in the Wisla river outside the royal castle so he dose not smell. In his first royal edict he ordered new walls in Galicya and Podolia. When those walls will be finished our whole southern border will have strong fortresses. On my suggestion he did renew our alliance with Hanssa, Saxony and Bayern. That improved our relation with those kingdoms drastically. Some Lithuanian boyars rebelled against new King but were overwhelmed and killed. Our solders played very long with their wife's and daughters.
Year 1507 a.d.
King opened new market by sending 5 traders to Novogrood in Russia.He also paid the loan for modernization and put down revolt in Podolia province. The old queen is dead, I hope she died from stink of her own body. I like the new Queen much better.
Year 1508 a.d.
I dispatched another 4 traders to Novgrood in hopes of grabbing large portion of that 175 ducat market. I supervised wedding with Navarre and Denmark. Russia, Pskov and German Order refused any suggestions on royal wedding. I do not understand why they do that. Our armies can walk over them without any problem. Russians I understand, they are always drunk from vodka and don't know what they are doing but Germans!!! I never consider them to be stupid idiots. King also repaid the loan. My friendship with new Queen is growing. Now the other nobles are afraid for their life's. It is time for revenge!!
Year 1509 a.d.
King financed six new traders in Dazing but it was a fiasco. By the end of a year they all were pushed out by Swedish traders. I also supervised construction of modern walls in Erz province. I think I am getting old. For the firs time in my life I was more interested in drinking good beer than ripping dress of some girl. Interesting.
Year 1510 a.d.
Five traders come asking for permission to open new trade outpost in Oman. It is very far away and very costly but I agree in exchange for 3 barrels of wine. It was worth every ducat. King made a decision that our eastern border need securing by constructing walls in Belogrood. We have now four armies. One 33k in Bohemia, second 32k in Krakow, third 24k in Basserbia and forth 25k in Belogrood. We also have small 10k army in Lithuania to watch northern border. That army was used to put down rebellion of German traders in Dazing. Bohemians revolted again and were defeated by local garrison. This year we also improved army technology.(4) King send three family members to some small German states with intention of raising our influence in Holy Roman Empire. By the way: it is not holy, it is not Roman but German and it is not Empire. It is bunch of small pathetic dukes fighting each other.
Year 1511 a.d.
Do to our success we decided to send another five traders to Oman. This market is growing rapidly and offers great profits. Now it passes goods worth 140 ducats a year. I guess we did not kill every rebellious boyar in the last Lithuanian rebellion because they organized another uprising. I am pretty sure that now we gat them all.
Year 1512 a.d.
We dispatched 5 traders to Holstein in attempt to open that market to polish goods. Some idiots started rebellion in Krakow were we have one large army. They did not last even a week before we killed all of them. Citizens of Tula decided to finance better walls because of growing strength of Russia. Innovations in marine technology were finished. (2) I do not support spending much of treasury on a Navy. Our kingdom is good to its people so they do not wish to move to other lands and form colonies. That is why we don't need large Navy. I wish we could just send every undesirable individual to some island which has cannibals on it.
Year 1513 a.d.
German population in Danzing rebelled again and was slathered by king forces. I do not understand why. We open as many markets as we can and we send more goods from our territories true Danzing every year. I really do not know what is their problem. After having maximum amount of traders in Venice, Persia, Oman, Flanders, Genoa, Novogrood, Holstein we decided to send six to Istanbul. ( 5 is the max number with our current tech level). King Ordered better walls in Kursk.
Year 1514 a.d.
Those Viking bustards from Denmark attacked Hanssa which is our ally. We had no other choice but to declare war on them. Unfortunately Russia and Pskov had alliance with Denmark. After 6k Russian army moved into Tula province our King offered the tsar a white peace and that idiot accepted it. Now we had free hand to deal with Pskov. The 24k army from Belogrood was send to destroy 7k Pskov force that started to besiege Tula. Our one big star general leading this army is one big shitt head. He lost first battle with that small 7k army. Only on second attempt he was successful.
Year 1515 a.d.
War continues. King ordered formation of new army from Lithuania, Bialorus, Podolsk, Wieliki and Tula. 698 ducats were spend to raise 41k army with 60 guns.( in that army 10k is from the force which was putting down Danzing rebellion) .Using weakness of a kingdom Bohemian drunks rebel again and are destroyed by the army stationed in that province. After loosing one trader in Novogrood we send 5 new ones in his place. Basserbian aristocrats constructed 7 warships to protect their shore from Turkish pirates. Because army which was stationed in Danzing moved to Wieliki there was no one to crushed rebellion of German Merchants in that port.They took control of the city and the province but we could not dispatch saliently large army to crush this rebellion. In the summer months a battle of Pskov took place between 41k polish army and 16k defenders. Our side was victorious and presided with bombardment of province capitol.
At this time Denmark lands forces in Danzing and starts a battle with the rebels. In that battle Vikings are completely destroyed and rebels loose most of their forces. This did make is very happy but not for long time. Next month Austria declared war on US. Those back stabbing German speaking a-holes attack Poland. Together with Saxony, Bayern we counter attack. The 32k army with 60 guns and two star general moved from Krakow to attack Moravia and in December takes it.
The situation is very grim, we are in deep du du...
Year 1516 a.d.
King was unable to annex Pskov even after we took its only province. After finding that Hanssa agreed to peace with Denmark he also regulated our relations with that country. The Army which occupy Pskov had to move out of that province after peace treaty. It was immediately send south to help in war against Austria. 5 traders were send to Kuryland . Bohemian army moved to Presburg and started to besiege to capitol after crushing local garrison. Army which took Moravia moved to Oderburg and began to pound the walls of the city. At this time Saxon 46k army took Ost-March capitol and Bayern forces were successful in occupying Carolina. Rebellions begin in Basserbia, Krakow and Polotck and we do not have armies to stop all of them. God save the country and I promise you That I will stop drinking.
Year 1517 a.d.
Loyal forces destroyed rebel armies in Basserbia and Krakow but are unable to retake control over provinces. Kromithujg and Silesia rebels as well, if the situation continues we will loose control over most of the kingdom. Our armies in Austria takes Salzburg. Austrian Duke offers peace in return for Moravia. We ignore him and continue the war. At the end of a year new 21k army ( all infantry) which was formed in Ukraine took control of Basserbia and Kromithujg in south-eastern part of kingdom. After that the force was directed to rebellious Krakow.
Peace with Austria. Poland takes Styre with its gold mine, Bayern gets Carolina and Saxony receives Ost-March. King did left 24k army with 70 guns in Styre to protect the Mine and the province which is not connected to the rest of kingdom. By the end of a year force from Basserbia puts down rebellion in Krakow and moves into Silesia where it destroys the rebels. From that year I stopped to drink beer.
Year 1518 a.d.
King offered marriage to Saxony, Bayern and Hanssa. They all accepted it. Hanover refused to join our alliance. We will let them rot by that cold North sea.. Royal troops put down last rebellion in Polotck. Kings orders to raise new armies to balance the losses from the war.
Year 1519 a.d.
Krakow revolt was put down but the walls of the city were destroyed in process of restoring order.
Years 1520-1536 a.d.
King orders to take loans and construct Marshals office in every province of the Kingdom. He also wishes to form new armies with large amount of guns in preparation of next war with Austria. He takes project of constructing better walls in all eastern provinces on himself.
He arranges royal marriages with France, Spain, Venice, Savoy,Portugal, England, Scotland, Baden, Hanover. During that time period we send traders to all markets we can.
Army tech is raised to level five, Marine tech to level three, infrastructure to level four.
King has to put down constant rebellions in many provinces. I'm too old to run around the country after some peasant rebels. I continue Alliance with Saxony and Bayern but I am unable to persuade Hanssa which changes religion to Lutheran. Sweden, Denmark, England and some German states change religion also. Prussia becomes French after a lost war.
Year 1537 a.d. ...my father is dead but I will continue this journal....
King offers 250 ducats to tsar of Russia which drastically improves our relations. Next month he proposes wedding with Russian boyar and it is accepted. Our relation went from -200 to -46 in one year.. Saxony refuses visualization offer from our king but continue to support our alliance.
King wishes to finish Austria and declares war on the Duke.Bayern and Saxony join the war knowing they are on the wining side.
Year 1538 a.d.
Bayern agrees to separate peace with Austria in return for Salzburg. Saxony sign peace after receiving 185 ducats from Austrian Duke. We are actually glad that they did that. Now we can take three provinces for ourselves without giving any to allies.
Year 1539 a.d.
We send 6 trader to new market in England with hopes to get some of 100 ducats that are traded there. Rebellions in Western Prussia and Silesia are put down right before peace with Austria. In the peace treaty Poland receives Moravia, Oderburg and Presburg. Our kingdom is now connected to Styre.
In 1492 a.d. Poland has 350 ducats, military tech level 2, fleet level 0, stability +2, trade tech 0, and infrastructure tech 1. All territories have minimum walls with the exception of Pripet which has none. Western half of the country is Roman Catholic, eastern is Orthodox and One province in south east is Muslim.
Army consists of 150k where half is cavalry. No artillery yet because of tech level is only 2. I have no fleet or General to lead my army.

We open as many markets as we can and we send more goods from our territories true Danzing every year. I really do not know what is their problem. After having maximum amount of traders in Venice, Persia, Oman, Flanders, Genoa, Novogrood, Holstein we decided to send six to Istanbul. ( 5 is the max number with our current tech level). King Ordered better walls in Kursk.
Year 1514 a.d.
Those Viking bustards from Denmark attacked Hanssa which is our ally. We had no other choice but to declare war on them. Unfortunately Russia and Pskov had alliance with Denmark. After 6k Russian army moved into Tula province our King offered the tsar a white peace and that idiot accepted it. Now we had free hand to deal with Pskov. The 24k army from Belogrood was send to destroy 7k Pskov force that started to besiege Tula. Our one big star general leading this army is one big shitt head. He lost first battle with that small 7k army. Only on second attempt he was successful.
Year 1515 a.d.
War continues. King ordered formation of new army from Lithuania, Bialorus, Podolsk, Wieliki and Tula. 698 ducats were spend to raise 41k army with 60 guns.( in that army 10k is from the force which was putting down Danzing rebellion) .Using weakness of a kingdom Bohemian drunks rebel again and are destroyed by the army stationed in that province. After loosing one trader in Novogrood we send 5 new ones in his place. Basserbian aristocrats constructed 7 warships to protect their shore from Turkish pirates. Because army which was stationed in Danzing moved to Wieliki there was no one to crushed rebellion of German Merchants in that port.They took control of the city and the province but we could not dispatch saliently large army to crush this rebellion. In the summer months a battle of Pskov took place between 41k polish army and 16k defenders. Our side was victorious and presided with bombardment of province capitol.
At this time Denmark lands forces in Danzing and starts a battle with the rebels. In that battle Vikings are completely destroyed and rebels loose most of their forces. This did make is very happy but not for long time. Next month Austria declared war on US. Those back stabbing German speaking a-holes attack Poland. Together with Saxony, Bayern we counter attack. The 32k army with 60 guns and two star general moved from Krakow to attack Moravia and in December takes it.
The situation is very grim, we are in deep du du...
Year 1516 a.d.
King was unable to annex Pskov even after we took its only province. After finding that Hanssa agreed to peace with Denmark he also regulated our relations with that country. The Army which occupy Pskov had to move out of that province after peace treaty. It was immediately send south to help in war against Austria. 5 traders were send to Kuryland . Bohemian army moved to Presburg and started to besiege to capitol after crushing local garrison. Army which took Moravia moved to Oderburg and began to pound the walls of the city. At this time Saxon 46k army took Ost-March capitol and Bayern forces were successful in occupying Carolina. Rebellions begin in Basserbia, Krakow and Polotck and we do not have armies to stop all of them. God save the country and I promise you That I will stop drinking.
Year 1517 a.d.
Loyal forces destroyed rebel armies in Basserbia and Krakow but are unable to retake control over provinces. Kromithujg and Silesia rebels as well, if the situation continues we will loose control over most of the kingdom. Our armies in Austria takes Salzburg. Austrian Duke offers peace in return for Moravia. We ignore him and continue the war. At the end of a year new 21k army ( all infantry) which was formed in Ukraine took control of Basserbia and Kromithujg in south-eastern part of kingdom. After that the force was directed to rebellious Krakow.
Peace with Austria. Poland takes Styre with its gold mine, Bayern gets Carolina and Saxony receives Ost-March. King did left 24k army with 70 guns in Styre to protect the Mine and the province which is not connected to the rest of kingdom. By the end of a year force from Basserbia puts down rebellion in Krakow and moves into Silesia where it destroys the rebels. From that year I stopped to drink beer.
Year 1518 a.d.
King offered marriage to Saxony, Bayern and Hanssa. They all accepted it. Hanover refused to join our alliance. We will let them rot by that cold North sea.. Royal troops put down last rebellion in Polotck. Kings orders to raise new armies to balance the losses from the war.

Years 1520-1536 a.d.
King orders to take loans and construct Marshals office in every province of the Kingdom. He also wishes to form new armies with large amount of guns in preparation of next war with Austria. He takes project of constructing better walls in all eastern provinces on himself.
He arranges royal marriages with France, Spain, Venice, Savoy,Portugal, England, Scotland, Baden, Hanover. During that time period we send traders to all markets we can.
Army tech is raised to level five, Marine tech to level three, infrastructure to level four.
King has to put down constant rebellions in many provinces. I'm too old to run around the country after some peasant rebels. I continue Alliance with Saxony and Bayern but I am unable to persuade Hanssa which changes religion to Lutheran. Sweden, Denmark, England and some German states change religion also. Prussia becomes French after a lost war.
Year 1537 a.d. ...my father is dead but I will continue this journal....
King offers 250 ducats to tsar of Russia which drastically improves our relations. Next month he proposes wedding with Russian boyar and it is accepted. Our relation went from -200 to -46 in one year.. Saxony refuses visualization offer from our king but continue to support our alliance.

Year 1538 a.d.
Bayern agrees to separate peace with Austria in return for Salzburg. Saxony sign peace after receiving 185 ducats from Austrian Duke. We are actually glad that they did that. Now we can take three provinces for ourselves without giving any to allies.
Year 1539 a.d.
We send 6 trader to new market in England with hopes to get some of 100 ducats that are traded there. Rebellions in Western Prussia and Silesia are put down right before peace with Austria. In the peace treaty Poland receives Moravia, Oderburg and Presburg. Our kingdom is now connected to Styre.
