lel, to be honest when I played Ethiopia I crushed the Jewish rebellion and converted them to Coptic. It's just a super-fun nation because you can stomp all over your neighbours, get mad gold provinces and colonize places that the Europeans take another half-century at least to reach.

Portugal. You can build a giant colonial empire while the rest of Europe is stuck in constant conflicts. The only real enemy you might have is Morocco so allying with their neighbours is a decent idea.

back to 869 ck2, and start loot the shit out of ummaayad and karlings.

Play the Teutons, increase relations with Austria and give them gold until you're at enough relation to add your provinces to the HRE, then slowly expand west by vassalizing and diplo annexing to prevent the HRE penalty and as soon as you have 10 tech you can form Prussia.

Constant wars aren't fun if you curb stomp 20 stacks with 5 regiments.

Late game Prussia is basically HOI in that land just falls quickly and, provided you're not daft enough to DOW Russia and Ottomans and France at the same time, you practically can't be beaten.

Screw this, conquered almost all of Iberian peninsula, then suddenly Switzerland wages war with France and Liege, several years later fucking Austria starts war against me with Hesse.
Managed to white peace with France so one big boy was out of the question but then fucking Bohemia joins the gangbang with Brandenburg and Ottomans.

>>74526469
Playing as any major European cunt isn't funny at all. It's just too easy even in HRE
Go for Byzantine, Malay or any other tough shithole and you'll have no regrets. BTFOing Spain, Portugal and England from both Americas with SEA poo-in-loos or cucking Ottomans with mere Caucasians or smth. like that is ways more pleasing
Don't be a retard, don't go for easy games

I plyed as Malaya once, it was fun with all the navy I had - 50 transport ships, 40 heavy ships and 40 or so light ships.
One war was quite amusing, one of the island nations there (can't remember which) was allied to Min in China. Min did not have any military access' to SEA so just before starting the war I blocked his two provinces with harbors with my heavy and light ships then just island hopped my way into victory against the little island nation.

I played a multiplayer game as Norway, and spent all my time colonizing everything. I focused so much on colonizing, I didn't develop my own provinces much, and by the mid-1600s my colonial nations were larger and more powerful than me, and nearly all of them successfully won their independence. With it only being the 1600s, parts of the New World were still untouched, and those newly-independent countries began colonizing as well.

By the end of the game, there was a Norwegian Caribbean Brazil, a Norwegian-culture Australia that I can't even remember was colonized by me or one of my ex-CNs, and I'm pretty sure Norwegian was guaranteed to be the lingua franca of that world's Victorian Age.

Norway itself, of course, never became a Great Power.
