Russia and Bengal look like they had fun also, what happened to Genoa
Genoa conquered Crimea and during the League War Russia got wrecked by Austria so they lost their borderlands which Genoa just absorbed.

Khalkha? More like Kalekha!!
Best of luck though! May Agbarjin's childhood be peaceful and completely free of hunting.
According to the wiki - I can't load up the game to confirm right now - this province is also grassland.Help!
Anyone can see which province is missing for Kale achi? It can be gained with tag swaps but you dont see the achi.
Can I inquire as how did you manage to get highest trade income without colonies?My 42nd EUIV run: Timbuktu.
While I already had played with the most popular West African tags, respectively Songhai, Mali and Wagadugu-> Mossi, and one of their most important goals was to get a hold of Timbuktu, this time, however, I decided to start with the Tuareg Timbuktu kingdom itself and overcome other powers struggling for the dominance of West Africa. So yeah, this is how I imagine a Tuareg Empire based in Timbuktu would look like. If I had taken Air, I would have pushed more into Fezzan and Kanem Bornu, well, that's maybe for another day.
The 1st and main goal for me was to destroy Songhai, the longer I let them live, the stronger they would become militarily, so I had to deal with them as soon as possible. I allied with Katsina, who willingly joined my war even though they lost and had to give one of their provinces to Songhai. It was necessary though, as it gave me time to take Gao and a few other provinces. Songhai was allied to Mali, but they were no use for them, they were plagued with rebels and by occupying a few provinces, they agreed to pay me reparations.
I had made one big mistake though, I had spent all my mana on devving Timbuktu to get Feudalism, but I hadn't noticed that it already had appeared in Songhai's Gao that I was about to conquer. To alter this loss a bit, I decided to humiliate my other rival Djenne.
Now that my truce with Songhai was over, I decided to not waste any time and fully annexed them. After that I fought wars with Air, Mali and Mossi kingdoms. I conquered all of them, except for Mossi kingdoms, I made Zandoma as my vassal and fed the remaining Mossi lands. After these wars, I was undoubtedly the dominant power of West Africa. I just had to kick out the Europeans from the coast and push into Morocco. I decided against conquering it all and stopped at the Atlas mountains.

My vassals: Tlemcen, Kaabu, Zandoma, Katsina, Wadai.
My allies: Spanish Mexico that refused to declare independence war for like a century.
Austria is Hussite.
Chile is under a Brazilian PU.
Epirus somehow survived in Malta and Corfu in Cyprus. The Ottomans actually tried to conquer Corfu, but ended up losing their hegemony lol.
I usually end up with that. My strategy is simple, I put full priority on diplomatic points and using them to dev production in all of my provinces, all of them are 40+ dev, except for desert provinces, they are 30+ dev.Can I inquire as how did you manage to get highest trade income without colonies?
You mean to say you dev grain and fish and mountains to 40 just for the sake of homogenized development? It's definitely not the correct use of mechanics. Everything in game is pushing you to prioritize one province over another.I usually end up with that.

Also, it's correct use of merchants, too, I guess.
Yes, I do exactly that, but I do it strategically, I start with the most valuable ones and if I still have left over mana, I dev mountainous provinces to 40 dev, as well, if not, then I leave them at 30 or so. But like I said it's 40+, some provinces are over 40 dev.You mean to say you dev grain and fish and mountains to 40 just for the sake of homogenized development?

They said "correct use of merchants", not "mechanics".You mean to say you dev grain and fish and mountains to 40 just for the sake of homogenized development? It's definitely not the correct use of mechanics. Everything in game is pushing you to prioritize one province over another.
