During the Victorian Era Prussia was able to form Germany, but can it also form the European Union. In this video I try. If you enjoy please leave a like.

Lassiez Faire will be very interesting in sphere of influence. A lot of the achievements will get harder for sure

[@SmithySmith]

Yeah I'm really looking forward to the new DLC hopefully it will improve the game even more.

45:58 outer manchuria-alsace lorraine front. a victoria 3 classic.

[@Piraticiguess]

Many people call the Netherlands Holland because back in like the 16 houndreds the dutch did many expiditions and when they were asked where they are from they responded with Holland.

[@SmithySmith]

I don't know why I never guessed that but still very interesting. Thank you

[@saitamapunch8035]

Holland is a province/state in the netherlands. Thats why

[@osterland]

nah its cause netherlands formed out of holland, before that holland was part of the spanisch empire and an puppet controlled by the Bourgeoisie living there and then after they fought for independence they called them selfs "holland" and that how the name came into existence (short story) later they were called netherlands, but only after a lot of wars in europe to gain more territory. (but basicly it was the first modern democrazy in europe, even BEFORE the french :D)

[@The-Lazy-Dane]

Most people here in Danmark get blank faces when I say Nederlandene (which is danish for the Netherlands) instead of Holland.

[@Jellybro2020]

"Shells-wig" before gta 6 thats crazyyy

[@TheDJdragonflame]

Not improving relations with Austria after getting such an early brothers war is a massive rookie error. Could have received their lands, army and manpower in the Unification Play

[@SmithySmith]

I have no excuses but at least i've learnt what to do now. Thanks for watching

[@TheDJdragonflame]

@@SmithySmith That's what it's all about, learning from mistakes so we can be better next time 👍 I did enjoy the video, keep up the grind!

[@SmithySmith]

Ive had the game for a while however I haven't played it properly until recently so Im always looking for advice.

[@TheDJdragonflame]

@@SmithySmith Then I'll be happy to offer some. You did most of the meta steps to forming the HRE in the beginning, get Schleswig an Holstein early, aim for early leadership and focus on economy. Where you went off was not improving as much as possible with Austria after the war and not building your army up to match France. You then start the Unification Play once you have support from every Nation, including Austria. That might require bankrolling them and some other stuff but it's usually possible. That gives you a massive nation to work with afterwards, making it fairly easy to gather the rest

[@SmithySmith]

Thanks for the tips. Ill try it next time I play as Prussia

[@PoliteAndCo]

The music in your videos along with the chill commentary is perfectly KZbin. Keep it up.

[@SmithySmith]

Thanks man

[@Joscat60]

dude the background music is so good

[@SmithySmith]

Thanks, it can all be found on the YT Studio Audio Library

I love long Vic 3 videos

[@SmithySmith]

I hope you enjoy this one

[@quandaviusbaldwinthethird]

awesome video!

[@SmithySmith]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@NotWhoYouThinkTheyAre]

love the vid, i did this formation a couple days ago, if you wanted a quicker way of forming HRE then i would go for improving relations with Austria Hungary and then protectorating north Italian and Netherlands. really good video tho

[@NotWhoYouThinkTheyAre]

P.S if you go over 100 infamy, you get everyone cutting you down to size. but if you stay under 100 you should have to deal with less war and less radicals in your country

[@NotWhoYouThinkTheyAre]

Also, if you improve relations with your procetorates, then you can annex them without going to war. sorry if this was back seating or whatever, just trying to help you out lol

[@SmithySmith]

@@NotWhoYouThinkTheyAre Yeah I understand the infamy however, at the end I was getting tired and just wanted to annex everything immediately. Also the protectorates idea, I tried it once with the Netherlands and they still didn't accept. For the formation of the HRE, ill give that a go the next time I play Prussia. Thanks for watching.

[@-AytaL-]

One funny fact is "laissez-faire" while being french words is not worded like that in the French localization, instead we have "non interventionnisme". Strange decision IMO.

[@SmithySmith]

Oh thanks for letting me know. That's really odd.

[@Alpatrixx]

i mean when i was tought about laissez-faire thats how we were tought

[@javiergonzalezgarcia6220]

The last month i was playing as austro hungary and in year 1870 subyugated prussia and form european union in 1978

[@mikpoiu6]

34:59 / 52:37 its caled holand becouse most duch sailors come from holand and when people wold ask were they were from they wold say holand

[@AlvorReal]

Always gotta form super germany. No reason not to!

[@heinrich6294]

Last time I played I also got Hungarian as accepted culture in United States of Europe. I played Austria, then got event to integrate Hungarian culture but didn't click it. Then formed Europed and then clicked the event and got Hzngarian as accepted cultute. Don't kniw if you can still do it.

[@Goofy079]

I love this video, but the fact you left the French Low Countries separated by not taking Belgium is giving me a seizure.

[@SmithySmith]

Hope you get better soon

[@mohamedjear8917]

you could have unified with Austria by forming germany, you have set yourself back by yeaaars

[@SmithySmith]

Thanks for letting me know

[@mohamedjear8917]

@@SmithySmith you just need to get the leadership play, then improve relations with them until they like you and support you in forming germany, then you press the button and unify into one mega germany FULL CORED !

[@SmithySmith]

Alright Ill try it next time I play. Thanks

[@lindapurba2449]
