How did Netherlands spawn this big?My Timurid Empire from MP game
End game as the netherlands when starting as Burgandy...a very odd thing happened where russia got a PU over lithuania..after 50 years they intergrated them and wiped out poland, this is the farthest Ive seen them expand into europe.
Here's my Iroquois game.
Lima and Grand River are both mine. I couldn't be bothered to make better names
]
My economy. Furs were selling like hotcakes so production was doing swell until the supply increased due to both me and Russia colonizing and increasing supply. Demand was still at 120%+ though.
Natives are probably the only nation I'll go Protestant with simply because you don't need tolerance nor do you need the curia. Idea cost helped me keep up in ideas too.
tada.

Just to note, Wiz did confirm in another thread that they are planning to add the ability to play as released vassals in Ironman mode in the future, but sadly it won't make it into AoW.
Nothing much
Ajuuraan are my vassal. Just became a protectoriate of the turks. I had to lose Dumayat and Sinai in the process ;( but hey at least they wont bother me anymore.
My next targets are ... I guess Tunisia and east Africa.

France into HRE ironman game. 1400 start, currently 1776.

Diplomacy mode
Prepping some claims on the Ottoman lands, the empire can never be too big

My not so special danish empire that I mainly did for the "iron price" achievement, I got bored with it and the patch is almost upon us so this is my endresult.
Europe:
My colonies that I took from England (had to destroy england entirely to convert the danelaw provinces:
Religious map:
I'm the only reformed country
And something else I've never seen before:

And the achievement:
Between merchant republic re-elections and national focus, I had more spare monarch points than I knew what to do with.Hey, you didn't westernize!
Around 1815 I had 32/32/32 tech, full idea groups, 3 stability, 0 war exhaustion, every building in every province, every possible province culture converted, every possible province harshly treated, etc.
I actually started looking around for things to spend my MP on and I couldn't find many...
Unlike Paradox, I say that the end results speak for themselves instead of their arbitrary differences for countries at the same tech level. Quite a paradox when 32 ≠ 32!
Ragusa had provinces which were richer and more developed than any country on Earth. France looked like a backwater compared to the Croation homeland.
I think I will stop westernizing for 99% of the countries I play from now on. Hard AI, AI bonuses, no westernization should make for some interesting games!

Maybe not the most complete restoration of the Roman Empire, but my first attempt with Byzantium:
Aragon is my vassal, just like four electors of the HRE: Pomerania, Brandenburg, Mainz and Trier (what is an otrodox metropolis). My bad luck that in the last 200 years I had six female rulers and just one male, so I can't reunite the two Romes. My posessions in America, South-Africa, Australia and Japan are french heritage (I got the throne of France in war at 1716).

Here's a random compilation at my first attempts to play nonwestern nations
Image taken right after converting some french provinces in west africa putting me at 100% religious unity yay
Made a big mistake by conquering Iberia but I really wanted the seville trade node haha
Ended up fighting coalition war after coalition war for about 100 years since 1680
You'd think I'd learn my lesson and then did this with Kongo
Westernized super early thanks to portugal settling traza first but then derped because I really really wanted seville Same deal constant coalition attacks tho this time I had a proper navy so just ended up blockading europe all the time
Decided to build the Suez canal and build every manufactory possible after getting the achievement. Wanted construction to start instantly by taken a crap ton of loans, lol @ my finance screen and the -242 ducats from interest.
Got kinda tired of getting stomped by any other nations of the world after this period of construction so tried some stuff to make my armies suck less
Learned how to play non-western nations now tho with my third ongoing-run as Granada
-10%tech cost from piety -5% from Ni's and a massive neighbourbonus let me do this
In the process of constant trucebreaking with the coalition to the east as soon as cores finish, wars are a breeze now tho the ottomans forced me to have 3 legions in afghanistan for a few decades. They entered in a coalition when I decided I wanted persia
Right now coalition is a joke tho long live isolated AE:
Westernized pretty early and as a result couldn't diplo annex anyone, which resulted in excess diplo points which resulted in this.
And yes I got this idea off off shenryyr

This Ethiopia looks beautiful
You restored Coptic Church in Egypt!
Non-colonizing Jihad is complete and I have no interest continuing the game. So here.
I keep Ottomans nice and strong in my latest games because I've got tired of killing them in previous ones.
Have mercy, keep Ottomans alive! Go, kill France/Russia/HRE instead.
