In this video titled EU4 A to Z - This TINY UNKNOWN NATION Is A SUPERPOWER I do a playthrough as Bremen in Europa Universalis 4 1.32 Origins. 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 Bremen, and I attempt to conquer the entire Lubeck trade node in order to dominate trade in Northern Europe and become The Hanseatic League itself. 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.

Conquer the Celtic Lands and become the only true Celt

[@samueleabbate8004]

Maybe you could own all the provinces needed and accept the English culture as primary culture in order to form Great Britain (Great Brittany)

[@ShiroKishi524]

Form Great Brittany

[@bleddynwolf8463]

conquer north france, + Great Britain and colonize for once

[@Caleb-hl9qo]

I have a really hard challenge for you. It is to curtail noble privileges. I don't know if you're able to do it. It's really hard

[@paarmenion3635]

Brittany comes from "Little Britain". In French it's even called "Bretagne" when GB is Grande-Bretagne. So the obvious choice is to make a Breton Empire with some actual ancient British territories : British Isles, British North America and the island of New Britain in the Pacific which is called "Nouvelle-Bretagne" (New Brittany) in French

[@thejadondaviscommentaries1613]

It's funny to see Bremen become a free city in EU4 when you're familiar with it as a prince-bishopric in CK2

[@wilhelmrk]

Because basically the Prince-Bishopric is represented by "Verden". Also don't get me started about how the second (Arch-)Bishop of Hamburg-Bremen is a Count in CK3 .. ffs I wrote a paper about you Rimbert and now you aren't even a member of the clergy!

[@doubledirections7221]

@@wilhelmrk I, for one, am glad since then I wouldn't be able to play as him.

[@211Serum]

The reason Brittany is called Brittany is that a large group of Celtic people from Britain escaped there during the Anglo-Saxon invasion. So, it's payback time. Reconquer Great Britain and culture convert it to Breton culture.

[@cyriellecentori]

Please, I'm breton myself: don't tag switch. I just want to see a glorious Brittany, just for once. And free all celtic people from their opressors, too. I believe in you: I hope Brittany is in goods hands within yours.

[@maxwellknudson-goodwin4069]

You say at the end that you like to take things a bit slower for tall games, and while I agree that this is slow expansion for eu4, just imagine if in the real world a small city in the hansa conquered most of northern Germany, all of Denmark, and major population centers in Sweden and Norway within a century.

As Brittany, return Celtic Dominance through a repeat of history. Consider England from the French Mainland, and ensure that only Celtic nations hold land in the Isles. Become the Pendragon!

[@legalduidriving]

No more oppressors for the Celts: As Brittany, take over France, England and Castile

[@HumanPerson_final]

It's always a little strange when people question why deleting cavalry is a good idea. Almost every poor tiny nation I try out seems to start with 2-4 cavalry for whatever reason, sometimes 6, and it's just such a huge economy drain for fairly little benefit. I remember one of the things Arumba would (or perhaps still does) teach is this fact. Similar to how cannons aren't that effective at tech 7 vs their cost.

[@DaxRaider]

What small nation start with 6 ... Bs. It's just that cavalry is better but expensive but deleting it and building a troop is just waste if money... Sry deleting it is stupid just fight with it and then onsulate

[@HumanPerson_final]

@@DaxRaider Your ignorance isn't my problem. If you're going to start a war immediately, sure use the cavalry first and then drop it. That isn't always the case, though, and in those cases they aren't worth it. There are a plethora of sources you can look up to show that early game cavalry's cost-to-benefit ratio doesn't justify the price tag of the unit in most circumstances. If you want to hamstring your early-game eco with unneeded cavalry, go right ahead. As for a small nation that starts with 6 cavalry, I don't remember what nation I was thinking of, but I seem to recall there was some small/poor nation I played as that starts with 6. The comment you're replying to is from months ago and I haven't played EU4 in months while waiting for the next DLC, so idk.

[@Majora1988]

Also, a Celtic Union as Brittany sounds fun. Cornwall, Wales, Scotland, and Ireland.

[@TheTsalpasnah]

Don't forget Galicie and Asturias!

[@crocworks]

Brittany sounds like Britain, so how about form Great Britain as Brittany and reform the British Empire based on its Victoria 2 borders? And we all know that the English Channel is the most valuable trade node in the game, so how about control over 70% of that trade node as Brittany and achieve bankruptcy WITHOUT manually clicking the bankruptcy button? Gotta break the bankruptcy-less streak somehow...

[@Drago02129]

It's funny, how you upload this today, since today Bremens Football Club (Werder Bremen --> hence the Bavaria Achievement) scored a major Football Victory against it's fiercest Rival Hamburg !

[@user-rr3dv5eg5i]

watched A to Z videos and noted that you never spying on next war target during the war so you can end this war and set the claim right after. Emperor cannot ask you for unlawful territory while you at war, so you peace out, make claim, attack right after next target and meantime you core the land you just got. So after it becomes your core the emperor cannot more ask for unlawful territory

[@DiamondDust132]

That Austria disrespect was just too fucking funny.

Looks like in every A-Z Campaign a lot of crazy stuff happens around you, especially in Europe! :P Brittany has two unique quest rows in its mission tree, one for conquering France and the other one for Colonisation. Why not finish those two Quest rows and conquer a nation that sounds similar to you, like Britain! ;)

[@Cecilia-ky3uw]

Red hawk ive been thinking lately, i think you can exploit transfer trade power, if some guy has better trade than you and is a merchant republic or eastern plutocracy, you transfer trade power agreeing that he would pay you money, wouldnt that mean a trade goods produced increase thus everyone makes even moar money..., including you directly

[@wesleyquere4979]

For Brittany, i guess uniting all of the lands that used to be inhabited by Celts? With limitations on how far you have to go, because at tthe biggest expense that'd be a loooot of territory!

Starting as a free city, you should definitively pick the Free City mercs, as after your first war you'll lose your title as a free city and you won't be able to hire them. So you can get both free city merc and free mercs. nice :)

Btw, what mods do you use?

[@maximilienmavian4333]

You should play as reformed sometimes! As Brittany, you should free the celts (by conquering Scotland, Wales, Ireland, and Cornwall) and vassalize the English. You should consolidate the Bordeaux trade node completely and (maybe?) vassalize the French after dismantling them. Possibly colonize US too for "New Brittany"... since Chesapeake trade leads directly to Bordeaux.

I would vote for uniting all the celtic peoples as Brittany (Ireland, Isle of Mann, Scotland, Wales, Cornwall, and maybe the northern coast of Iberia).
