Hey all! This is my first AAR and even though I have played a fair amount of hours of EU4, I think that I'm just an average player.
And just a sidenote; English isn't my first language, so feel free to correct my grammar.
My playstyle:
-----
The rise of the Solomonids - prologue
Ethiopia is ruled by Zara Yakob Solomonid in 1444, a truly skilled Emperor.
He was raised as a copt and lived a few years in Aksum (one of the coptic holy sites). Therefore he saw it as his legacy to fight back the muslim thread, protect the coptic minorities and restore the coptic faith to its former glory.
But before he could fulfil these dreams, he first had to consolidate his power over his divided realm.
With many different minorities living in his realm, there was a constant threat of rebellions.
Rebellions such as these were often quickly crushed.
He had to increase its power to compete with all the muslim countries that surrounded Ethiopia.
And to expand its empire, Zara Yakob looked to the countries in the south.

My playstyle:
I like to play with a bit of roleplay and without focussing too much on efficiency.
My campaigns must be realistic too be fun, so I avoid exploits and bordergore as much as possible.

I'll try to upload weekly. But I'm quite busy, so I won't make any promises.
There is still a bunch I can upload. I'm almost 100 years in the campaign.
As you might expect my goals are 'prester john' and 'a blessed nation'
