I formed the ROMAN EMPIRE in Victoria 3

Victoria 3 Roman EMpire or Victoria 3 rome is a formable nation thanks to a victoria 3 mod. We play as Victoria 3 France - the strongest nation in Victoria 3. In our pursuit of this formable nation, we take out great britain, qing, the ottomans, austria, italy, spain and more! Snowballing is a real thing in this game and the victoria 3 warfare system doesn't make it easier!

Depends how developed it is and how late you take it. My Portugal game, Portugal has a GDP of £2 Billion. And Alentejo alone accounts for £400 million of it.

"Last time the White House was burnt down by the British, well the Canadians." As a proud Canadian, I can assure you that it was the British :p Not just because the Canadians were British at the time, but because the attack on Washington, D.C. was a naval invasion conducted by British troops arriving from Europe after taking part in the Battle of Waterloo.

Hey laith, love your Vic 3 content, I would really love to see a "divide and rule" through economics, where you dismantle other empires and nations into smaller states in wars, but Never puppet or conquer anyone, but create an extreme immigration attraction from those states you break up and get into your customs union, maybe try and get universal suffrage, schooling and multiculturalism really quickly. A "fun" end goal would be a nation with the best standard of living and by a LARGE margin the greatest economic power, where most other "great-powers" are broken-up remnants of their former selves. Dismantle the world into smaller nations and get them all into your customs union, then get most to immigrate into your nation while the rest are just resource providers for your industry...

I dont know if you are reading this but having units as reinforcements in fights can help you win battles because you get the full barracks recruitment and training bonus meaning that you dont run out of men in battles and dont take huge amounts of morale damage.
