To be honest, i rarely play on Europe, it is so boring having to justify claims, conquest casus-belli is like a drug, once you got it, you never want to go back wasting cash to get the claim. Beside, steppe horse lords deserve an migration casus bell, it is kinda sad that norse got it, and accepting contracts as an horse lord.

East Africa, I agree. West Africa is never gonna be fleshed out based on the fact that we know almost no precise historical details of anything. I guess you could simulate the Trans-Saharan camel trade, that might be kinda fun.

Ashkenazi were definitely primarily settled in Bavaria, Cisalpine Germany, Austria, etc. but also have about 10% Slavic input and still maintain a genetic connection to the Levant. I had a 23 and me done a few years back. Mostly Bavarian/Rhinelander on my German side, but did have some Ashkenazi as well.

An innocent fox, caught in the crossfire.

Dude. I was just planning a Jewish world domination playthrough (just for fun, lol). Stop reading my mind, algorithm!

WHAT THEY NEED TO DO IS, DON'T KNOW HOW HARD IT IS BUT, GIVE US 1/2 OF MORROWIND, ALL OF OBLIVION,& SKYRIM, BUT IN THE STORYLINE, FACTIONS, SIDE QUESTS, WEAPONS, SECRETS, NO STARFIELD, & EYE CANDY (GRAPHICS)EVERYONE IS DOING IT SO, YEAH SORRY 😔

A bit late but do you think it’s better to stay as a duke/count or bump up to kingdom (or maybe empire)? At what point should you stop grabbing land and start playing tall?

Ashkenazi (Central and Eastern Europe) Sephardi (North Africa and Spain) Mizrahi (Middle eastern) Radhinite (the steppes and Silk Road) Cochin (the south western Indian coast) And the ones not in game Beta Israeli (Ethiopia) Kaifeng Jews (China) Teimanim Jews (Yemen) Source: I’m Jewish

yokudans lol. they are kind of like the nedes (nords before they were called nords) in the sense that they traveled to tamriel from a whole different continent called yokuda.technically yokudans ARE the redguards. its just that forebears and crowns are the two different cultures that divide that one race. cool video btw. i doubt bethesda would ever introduce this stuff but honestly i would not be surprised if this stuff was added with mods if their engine is improved like they said it was

What happened to the khazar jews in real history? Did they just marry into other Jewish groups?

Oh you like Judaism? Name every Jew.

If a culture got eradicated, it wouldn't be diasporic it be dead. The Jewish cultures have Diaspora because they were all kicked out of the Levant by the Roman Empire after their many revolts, they are a people with no homeland. I don't know much about every culture in the game but they would need to fit that criteria as the tradition itself brings up having no homeland. "People of this culture have lost the homeland they once held dear. Some among them travel the world searching for a place where they may begin anew" I'm sure someone could find a way make that a event line, but then you'd either just let the culture keep the tradition, even if they got a new homeland or retaken their old one, or have it where at the end you lose the tradition. I Do know a mod that allows you to turn your culture to hebrew if you reform the Kingdom of Israel. Its called Sons of Judah : Jewish Flavour.

Ashkenazi is derived from Ashkenaz, which is the Hebrew word for Germany. Sephardic is derived from Sefarad, which is the Hebrew word for Spain. The thing is, there are a lot of other minor Jewish cultures that aren't represented in game either. Just to give you an idea for future Jewish cultures. Mizrahi dreives from the Hebrew word for East, encompassing basically the Arabic speaking world, except Iraq(who are correctly called Bavli as they are centered around old Babylon), Zarphadic derives from the Hebrew word Zarfad, basically encompass what is today France. Yevanic derives from a corrupted Persian pronounciation of Ionian, AKA Greek. Kaifengi derives from the city of Kaifeng, a city in China with a small Jewish community which are still around to this day.

ashkenazi jews (yes, basically all european jews except for spain, which are traditionally the sephardis), (even back then) spoke a language called Yiddish, which is basically a sister language to german and a dialect to high german. similar to how sephardis speak ladino, which is a language similar to spanish. also, i think khazaria speaks ogur, not shaz turkic, but i might be wrong about that

Just commenting for the algorithm! Enjoyed your thoughts!

Well, theres RICE mod that realy help with some regions that underdeveloped. You would like it, im sure.

Ashkenazi refers to jews that setteled in europe amd becouse (at the time) most european jews lived in the holy roman empire the game chose german to represent there culture (im preaty sure that the jewish population of poland and russia will eclipes the german jewish population during the era that eu4 covers but im not sure about that)

*Sad Afro-Romance Noises*

Some people want Steppe update, but don’t care for Africa. Some people the other way around. Most just don’t care. 😢

If Asia was expanded, it would get more love than Africa ever got.

Love these videos keep them coming

100000% cumania is my favourite nation to play but the base tribal gameplay is boring af, i don’t even want it to be like ck2 but they should just make it better.

horse lorrdsz im craving horse lordz need throat singing

Thought i would give some info about the Ashkenazi situation, the Ashkenazis are the Jews who settled intially within the bounds of the Holy Roman Empire (they would go on to expand eastward and become a large minority in Poland, Ukraine and Belarus to name a few) around the end of the 1st millenium or so. Im not the most educated on the linguistic history of the Ashkenazis but i think at least for the 876 star date they should speak high german, but in later start dates have their own Yiddish language which is basically a hybrid language between high german and Hebrew although the german dominates so it is classified as a germanic language. So every Ashkenazi would probably speak high german, although it is to be noted that many of them were multilingual largley due to their dominant trades within the HRE.

They said somewhere that one day they would give nomads their own govt type thatll come with a DLC

I think in EK2 there is a feature in which you can promote diasporic cultures, or pariahs or whatever they are called

on the roadmap they said they gonnna expand the map so we might get china or more Africa

You are not incorrect, I ran a search of the game files and diasporic it is only used for five cultures in the Israelite group.

Hello

Ethiopia lore goes hard, Aksumites are on par with Romans, Chinese and Iranians according to Mani

I play kong

ES6 would be really cool if it opened up with the player character fighting a bunch of Thalmor in a snowy forest while "Bye Bye Bye" plays in the background 😂

Don't worry, they'll make you pay 30$ for the same DLC you already bought for CKII years ago.

ethopia was jewish at the time

Cool

17:58 believe it or not, the people at Bethesda made spell crafting again 6 months ago. That's all I'm gonna say.

Why do I find this now? This video could have been useful a few days ago when I was working on the same topic. Anyway cool video!

ES6 is dead on arrival

Nobody plays in Africa

there used to be a great mod called africa plus

Except, they did! Horse mounted stepped people were actual able to sweep through Europe, sprouting several new cultures and ways of life along the way

Place, Europe: 😠 Place, Africa: 😳

Playing in Mordvinia is kinda fun when you get it to feudal but going further into the steppes is just not worth it.

Es6 No multiplayer

Horse archers should recieve massive penalties if you're feudal. And perhaps scale a bit with ages, so tribal steppe stays competitive with feudal and clan rulers who have much better bonuses from buildings. But also it's just kinda boring after you built up your domain as a steppe lord, so idk. The region needs a lot of love.

We desperately need flavor Steppe Bros

I mean ya make valid points brotha, but I would much rather Skyrim 2, with basically the same game style as Skyrim. Just far more in depth and customizable skill trees for in depth builds. More weapon types obviously. Cool new features while keeping a trustworthy base.

They should have it as you pick a race then culture, like they did in Pillars of Eternity which is an incredible CRPG. So my Khajiit grew up in High Rock and was a great spellcaster, or my Nord grew up in Morrowind and worshipped the Tribunal etc.

I think that your ideas are great. I really want Paradox to expand outside of Europe because while not many people play there I think that it's kind of a self fulfilling prophecy that no one will play there. They don't have flavor, so no one plays there, no one plays there, so they wont add flavor. But I think that steppe hordes could be/should be really cool. For instance, you brought up the idea of nomads constantly wandering around in their territory and that made me wonder if there could be anyway to represent that. I figured that if you make it so that the nomads don't have a capital on the map, that would make the game play pretty different. Also make battles more decisive for the steppe people because if you destroy their horde in a battle, they're done because they don't have anywhere to retreat to. So you wouldn't be able to siege a hordes capital, but one good battle is enough to break them.

I hope your hand is good
