Russia and I (Germany) are dominating Europe, and our righteous might is unstoppable. In the next act, we (I) are going to complete our domination of Scandinavia. First of all, obviously Norway is a satellite of Sweden, and they have a full alliance together. In previous wars, Russia has annexed the northernmost state of Sweden, and they've also annexed northern Norway, do to (including) Trondheim. A nice, even border. I then (after annexing Danmark), took the southernmost state of Sweden, including that island - Visby. So, I undeniably dominate 'the Sund'.
What's left of the (deeply humilated) Norway and Sweden is obviously those states (just one for Sweden, actually) in the middle, between me and Russia. I've decided I'm going to satellite both of them, which will be a walk-though... since their militaries are already destroyed from the previous war with me. I figure they don't deserve to be a part of Das II. HRE, since they weren't part of the first. Having them remain, crushed between a Russo-German vice seems fitting, somehow.
Anyway, Sweden already hates me (-196) from the previous war, so I'm going to DoW them (prestige -1), and Norway SHOULD join in... but I've been breaking other alliances like crazy because no one wants to fight me, so even if they chicken out, it'll only be another -1 prestige. QUESTION IS; what happens if I satellite a nation that has satellites? Does the game crash? I was thinking I should satellite Norway first, but what happens then?
Both Sweden and Norway give eachother military access, is that going to remain? And if I satellite Norway first, what impact does that have on their relationship w/ Sweden? I'm basically just trying to avoid confusing/confounding something in the save file, with all this satelliting going on... can you even have satellites of satellites? "Sweden is a satellite of Germany... "Sweden controls Norway as a satellite"... "Germany is at war with Norway"... "Sweden explodes"... :wacko:
