【Vic3】Turning Haiti Into A Capitalist UTOPIA

You'd think Haiti in Victoria 3 would be a hopeless situation, with all that debt. I beg to differ, however ;)

Hi! Thanks for playing my mod! You can turn off a lot of the unrealistic formables by turning them of in the settings. Anyway, great video!

[@Quarbit]

thanks for making it! I've continued using it in many of my personal runs as well. I didn't realize there was an option for those formables, but I'll keep it in mind!

[@GuardianKikko]

@@Quarbit I just updated it rn to make sure all of the more out there nations are locked if you turn on the Plausible Formable Nation game rule (if think thats what its called) in the settings :)

[@allenellisdewitt]

Little pro tip for you when playing in and around Central America rush the panama canal. it will unlock the Panama canal company and that will give you a flat 50,000 tax income. It just turbo charges any of the smaller economies in the region.

[@Quarbit]

I never even considered that, thanks for the tip!

[@SereglothIV]

Is it fixed already? Or does it still only work when shipyards are prosperous?

[@12354rony]

Aren't you suppose to sell it to the Americans eventually as a third world country for a fat load of dosh?

[@rotomfan63]

I have seen Haiti played to succes numberous times and actually paying the debt and not just hitting the "lol no" desicion button and getting a defense pact with someone huge or something is something i have not seen until now. Good on you for being able to do it and show me that i can if i want to. Might try it some day

[@alexandererhard2516]

That might have perhaps something to do with the fact that it was a lot more difficult a few patches ago. You didn't start in debt, and the payment to France was only 4 times 80k. But the Interest to France started at 4k instead, meanwhile the (new) starting internal debt only is 1.14k in his picture. That's an ~ 800£ difference at a time where you have maybe ~7000£ revenue, and if you know how impactful even a minor amount of surplus is when dealing with high-interest debt (both ingame and in real life), you can see why it got a whole lot easier. Also the ability to have nationally owned buildings and get the full profit value, or let them be privatized to pay off lump sums of your internal debt helps of course, both of which were not present in the previous big Patch.

[@rotomfan63]

@@alexandererhard2516 Yeah, actually those are really good things for Haiti. The update had so much impact on so many things and how you play in so many i can see how something like how 1 country benefits a lot from it could slip past me. And yeah Haiti's debt before this patch was basically impossible. That's why whenever you saw it played, FIRST THING THAT HAPPENED, was "Fuck that debt" button getting clicked.

[@alexandererhard2516]

@@rotomfan63 Understandable. I tried it once, and don't think I would have done it without eventually GB inviting me into their customs union, meaning I could just freely activate all good pms without having to carefully balance trade routes and bureaucracy use. I also find it hilarious that the "debt to France interest" got nerfed hard. Previously, a 320k debt with 4k weekly was a horrifying 65% annual interest. Even insignificant unrecognized powers only have to pay 40% on their debt. Now, 2M with 2k weekly interest is a 5.2% interest, that's better than a Great Power without Laissez-Faire gets at game start, including France itself! If the game would allow me to take out another 500k for 500 weekly I'd happily take that and consider it development aid lol.

[@cz85]

For people interested in Haitis plight, please know that the debt was based on property the French lost during Haitis independence. That property being people. They had to basically chop down all of their trees to make basic payments. At the same time they were not able to export to the USA because southern plantation owners were afraid the radical idea freedoms from slavery will hurt their bottom line. USA is also more closely aligned with France at this time. The French are also complicit in modern colonialism in modern Africa in their former colonies via currency control. Point is to give more context to some of the poorest countries in the world and fight against the notion that just because slavery ended 200 years ago that there isn’t injustices still happening today, nor do the lingering effects are gone completely

[@hueylong3918]

Haiti genocided the white population of the country, even those who helped them or welcomed them with open arms. They slaughtered them and put on their clothes in a mockery of civilization, to which they remain to this day.

[@Byzantine-Revolt]

They also received billions in aid throughout their state's existence (about half of their debt to France) which their leaders squandered totally. You could go on & on about the failures of the nation of Haiti went through but blaming just the colonial actors isn't telling the whole truth corruption & general insanity of ideology plagued the young republic.

[@goatpapayt2294]

@@Byzantine-Revolt ah yes how to establish a stable democracy /state as soon as they get free burden them with a massive debt that they won't be able to pay off easily. 2 watch as political instability follows as economic conditions worsen (by the turn of the 1900 century you are paying 80% of your income to french debt)3. No dictators will ever promise to fix everything and fail after they come to power 4. This is like weimer germany but smaller and even worse are you kidding me

the vanilla game's west indies tag can't be formed by haiti because it's based on the time they tried to federate the british colonies in the carribean, but i agree there should be a pan-carribean formable

One perk of not having Sphere of Influence DLC is that France and USA always create trade leagues, so I can always join either of these power blocs for the customs union without the risk of subjugation. Which is pretty nice as a small poor backwater nations enjoyer 😆

Either buggy or lucky, I found that unilaterally cancelling the debt had no downsides. UK invited me to their power block but never forced me to be a subject, and France never attacked.

It's funny how the debt is portrayed as really big when in reality it was just 2 years of the income Haiti provided to France pre-independance.

Weirdly I've also done a Haiti run, built a trade empire in the Caribbean and Central America but its a bit rough resource wise iirc

[@Sjnuffelke]

You can remove your decrees for a bit to get a +25% enactment speed bonus from excess authority. That would've helped with the total separation timeline I think.

Sovereign empire doesn't let you get vassalised or leave for 5 years so you can just leave after those 5 years it aint that bad to join one Also getting someone in your war with a war goal doesn't give you infamy it gives the one your getting in the war the infamy.
