In this video titled EU4 A to Z - Doing THIS As Castile SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED I do a playthrough as Castile in Europa Universalis 4 1.33 France. This is the series titled A to Z where I attempt to play every* nation in EU4 in alphabetical order. Of course I had to remove some nations so the challenge doesn't get too boring. In this video I play as the nation of Castile, and I attempt to do some cursed stuff just like in the Byzanitum episode, namely, forming Andalusia. So let's see if I managed to do it! I hope you guys enjoy this series. If you enjoyed this video consider leaving a like and subscribing for more content in the future.

It sounds like it's in America, so colonise Europe. It would be even more cursed than this.

[@electricVGC]

IMO the best thing you can do as Chachapoya is flip Catholic ASAP and then protestant and spawn the printing press, so you can print the Cha Cha Slide

[@javierduenasjimenez7930]

Bruh, what's the point of converting? There is no achievement, it is historically impossible and there is no actual advantage of doing that. Don't really like this kind of cursed games. I just want my lovelly Catholic Castille guide 😢

[@antimatterg]

@@javierduenasjimenez7930 why are you here then? The whole point of this series us to be as cursed as possible. There's no goal. God i hate people who try to complete games 100% and then never play it again. Games are made to be fun.

[@punishedwhirligig3353]

@@electricVGC cha cha real smooth

[@mackycabangon8945]

Did some quick research about the Chachapoyas to give some historical-esque objectives, heres what I have got: 1 - Own all Mountain (and maybe Hills too?) provinces in South America - They were known as "Warriors of the Clouds" so owning all high-altitude lands seems fitting 2 - Culture convert all Quechua provinces - The Inca treated the Chachapoyas very harshly when they were part of their empire so this is fitting 3 - Ally any colonial power - Since the Inca treated them so harshly, they quickly joined the Spanish side when Pizarro went to conquer the Inca. Spain or Castile might collapse/not exist in your game so made it a bit more lenient by allying any colonial power.

"An unorthodox way to form Andalusia" well duh, you can't form Andalusia as an orthodox nation

[@ducttapeanddreams]

Now Hawk will have to form Andalusia as a nation that starts Orthodox

For shifting culture or religion, you need at least 50% of your development to be that culture or religion. Meanwhile, the ledger chart percents are calculated from number of provinces. That's where the difference comes from

[@viniciusyugulis7278]

It doesn't make any sense why it must be 50%, you should be allowed to shift once the desired culture becomes the majority

[@LieEaterUsogui]

@@viniciusyugulis7278 thats why its based on dev

[@Bornaclorks]

@@viniciusyugulis7278 it is based on dev, let's say you only have 3 provinces, 2 of them are saharan 3 dev deserts and the last one is Rome. Of course Roman population and religion would be more than the 2 saharan ones

[@viniciusyugulis7278]

@@Bornaclorks I know it's based on Dev, but why are we allowed to shift only when the desired culture becomes 50% of your dev? If the desired culture becomes the majority of your dev you should be able to flip it no matter the number

i think the reason that you can call nations in once the war has started is because the distant war modifier is measured from the nearest enemy nation when you are fighting but it only counts the war leader and cobeligerants in the declare war screen.

[@LogoMan000445578]

Now that you are playing the season C, I have a suggestion for my "hometown nation" of Cilli... Since its flag consists of stars and red and white stripes, you should use them to form another nation with that type of flag - United States (also completing the "Dont Be Cilli" achievement on the way)

[@mackycabangon8945]

United States of Slovenia

[@mememan5874]

You legit predicted it

[@johnlienhart2717]

Chachapoya: Given the AI's performance, defeating one stack of noble rebels would be an achievement. But you are the people of the Clouds! Go to the highest point you can! The great mountain of Aconcagua! Own the province of Mendoza, which is my best guess for the correlating province.

[@captain_kadaver]

At that point they should just emigrate to the Himalayas

[@manelgrinder3027]

The andalusia goal reminds me of the aragonese game you had where you formed the Romanian empire

[@ZlewikkTV]

Bruh, we all know you can only form ARABIA as Castille

[@nickcutter2312]

I think he didn't form Arabia as Castile because you know everyone does that and its such a common strategy that he wanted to go for something different for a change even if it isn't as powerful.

[@TheRedHawk]

Arabia is the OG Castile tbh

Mohammad von Habsburg 💀

[@ichabsproductions4607]

This is accurate but true 😂😂😂

[@DaFreeze220]

I've been thinking of doing a Spain run that takes advantage of their idea that lets them Fabricate Claims on colonies anywhere. No exploration or expansion, just conquest in Europe and using Portugal as a punching bag/colonizer. I would subsidize them when at peace so they can colonize, then take the colonies from them once they are finished. I also noticed that if you release Leon, they will pick Colonial/Expansion ideas too.

[@matthewmcneany]

Most likely the reason Austria can be called in after the war declaration is initally sent is that they have lost a large (-1000/100) modifier such as 'will take stability loss' (i.e. usually it means they've cancelled military access with one of the nations you've declared on or they've gone below +100 relation with the nation you've declared on). TBH the mechanic for calls to arms is starting to feel a bit clunky, it's always been gameable but it's pretty unstable now and doesn't always give accurate information about who will and will not honour calls to arms in both offensive and defensive wars.

[@TheGorthroth]

I dont know why but i'm so addicted to these series. Not even playing that much of eu4 myself but seeing you having these fun campaigns is just a pleasure. Good luck on next countries

[@testudo2203]

There is an advantage in forming Andalusia as Castile than not many people really mention. Unit types. You have western unit types as Andalusia if you form it this way what gives you really good late-game advantage. By the way, forming Ibadi Andalusia and making New World Ibadi looks even more cursed.

[@cipherskell9638]

But then money flows like no tomorrow with that +10% goods modifier

[@Raul-po7yz]

That's the first time I've seen someone form Andalusia as Castile, maybe Denmark into the Roman Empire next? :O Great vid btw, keep up the great work!

Join the HRE and become emperor as Cebu. They have a festival in modern-day Cebu City called the Sinulog Festival, which celebrates the local people's convertion to Catholicism or something, and the logo of this festival is the two-headed eagle of the House of Habsburg inside a Native Shield.

[@ChrisMcKee087]

Ah a Sunni Habsburg controlling Andalusia with PUs over Portugal, Aragon and Naples. Nothing out of the ordinary here.

[@YuzuruHakushaku]

"An unorthodox way to form Andalusia". Technically right, it was a catholic way.

[@DerScarnem]

In a documentary, if you can call it so, there was the discussion about the possibility that the Chachapoyas or the "Warriors of the Clouds" were Celtic and Carthaginian because of the way they built their fortresses. So the Celts as mercenaries or inhabitants of the Spanish part of the Carthaginians lands were taken by them or fled with them across the Atlantic Ocean when Rome conquered Carthage . So how about conquering Tunisia and parts of Spain which were part of Carthage?

[@aaronfire359]

First an Ottoman Byzantium! Now a Sunni Andalusia Spain! What’s next, a Tengri hoard France!?

Lovro Anto Barišić 2 days ago If you ever read this thank you very much! I know there are a lot of nation in season 3 but as I am Croatian I would really like that you play well Croatia, so here some advices: -You can fight the independence after the first month, you just need to ask Poland to support independence (it is not very difficult you take the +25 relation because of religion and if they are rival with hungary they will support you, if they are not rival take a diplomatic reputation guy). Very important that you do all this in first day befor Poland gets other allies. -You can ask also Lithuania but first wait for the Poland-Lithuania event and ask afterwards -During war: prepare spy network with serbia, search for allies -Peace out Austria as fast as possible -Peace deal: Take the gold mine in Nitra-region and a border with Serbia -Have a claim on Serbia go to war and take Kosovo if you manage to get two gold mines you are unstopable -Next war: Byzanthium if still exist or Venice (take city of Venice and Istria and make Venice you mane trade Node)
