Neither holy, nor Roman, nor even an Empire, the HRE in eu4 is one of the more complicated and advanced regions to play in. In this video we will cover the most powerful princes of the Holy Roman Empire, who possess unmatched national ideas and starting positions ideal for players jumping into their next europa universalis iv campaign.

Well, you always make nations look interesting. Like seriously. You are narrating so well, I can enjoy almost ANY nation. I do not know how you do that, but I for one am pretty sure, I'm not the only one. Anyway, personally I'd like to see some CK2 guides for beginers - I merely got 40 hours into the game, still got no clue how to play it. Well, good luck with your future projects, I for one, am surely thrilled for upcoming content!

Oh, and if you need any ideas for EU4 content - cover Denmark. It is quite an interesting nation, for there are a lot of strategies open. For instance, you can keep your current dynasty, and try to PU Bavaria and the Palatinate - or, change history by letting the pretender Eric Gryf win, and therefore trying to get a PU on Pomerania(which is what I prefer)

"...Florence is the perfect 'tall' nation if you decide that playing at five speed and remaining geographically limited is somehow fun." THANK YOU. I've never understood this whole "playing tall" meme in EU4. Three fourths of the game's mechanics are based on territorial expansion, and tallness is achieved exclusively through the RNG of the mana system. I think Vicky 2 was the only Paradox game that made NOT constantly invading your neighbours somewhat compelling from a gameplay perspective.

@@AlzaboHD I mean playing wide is as boring in my opinion, after 100 Years playing wide you are too strong and the games evolves into a map painter. Playing Tall is a challenge it doesnt mean you are not allowed to conquer its just means you are giving yourself rules. You need now every feature, every Cb to getting stonger without conquering. The rules are individual are can be adjusted for every Region. Playing tall can be a run where you just build historical borders. I had a tall Germany Run and it was the most fun Run i ever had, it was difficult, but rewarding. You can even do a tall india. Tall in my opinion just mean dont conquer everthing what is possible and concentrate on other aspect of the Game too.

Correction: Switzerland CANNOT form Germany without culture-shifting. The Swiss primary culture is barred from forming Germany. Edit: PU over Milan is incredibly rare as well, due to the Ambrosian Republic event. If the Milan ruler spawns an heir; even of your dynasty, they will turn into the Republic. Heirless, however, they can be PU'ed since PU fires before the Ambrosian Republic; and Ambrosian cannot fire under a PU.

I was able to 1vs1 the Ottomans by beating them to tech 6 and having a force limit matching theirs.

Playing on EU4 ET as Switzerland in the 2018 start. I accidentally started a system of alliances that brought the world to its knees. What had happened was: I allied Belgium, France, UK and US. Invited to the EU, I declined. France did because of me, Italy did because of France. Greece decided to ally me after I allied France. Then the Balkans exploded again because Turkey decided Greece was Turkish and Greece didn't. So we got called to repel a Jihad that Egypt, Tunisia, and Iraq joined in. Recreated Gallipoli because they cut us off at the Bosporus, went like it did the first time losing a 50 stack (my whole standing army, I know, shoot me) so I banked it all on a 30 stack of Mercs and decided to land at Tunis to knock them out and lock down the Mediterranean. Tunisia peaced out, humiliated and giving me half their income for a while. Used those funds to float my economy, cut my stack in half and paid off some of those loans, and decided to play rear guard. Egyptian naval landing in Crete, RIP Minos. Oh well. Egyptian follow-up landing in Epirus, game on. Beat them with a blunt stick down into Achea, stack wiped them on the counterattack in Attica. The devil I am, I went down to Cairo looking for more gold to steal. Landed in Alexandria, walked like an Egyptian up and down the Western border until I hit their stack upriver neat Sudan. Provoked their 50 stack into a river crossing, uphill battle against my 35 stack and won, then chased them into Sinai where I finished them. Peaced out with King Tut in my back pocket and a wad of cash in my hand. Manpower back up, so I paid off my loans and dismissed my Mercs in favor of home grown troops. Pulled my navy out of the Bosporus and invited the Kebab itself. Cut them off once their grand army of 125 walked in. Allies picked them apart, lost a couple sieges in Thessaloniki and Athens but pushed back eventually, only after I succeeded in landing at Antioch and ran straight for Ankara. Sieged down, Turkish panic, divided their forces and lost them both. Iraq knocking on my Anatolian door, siege within a siege, feared for it all until my Allies came walking over the dunes and saved my ass. Removed Kebab from Europe, gave Greece their Thrace back, Europa restored.

Less easy than someone more safe like Tunis but it shouldn't be too hard if you're able to snipe tlemcen when Tunis is at war with them and then ally ottomans to get spain off your throat. If you're lucky you can also ally a Spanish rival. A Franco-Spanish rivalry can go a long way, and so can a Franco-Spanish alliance if it breaks up Portugal with spain in an inevitable French-English war since Portugal likes allying em. Just remember to build a navy and make use of the strait crossing for stackwipes and indefinite delays. I'm not a big fan of doing it but you can easily get tons of development by beating up the tech inferior central africans by land too if you colonize Tuat.

@@tobz3229 since I made this comment I began a Bavaria playthrough where I inherited Burgundy at its height by 1500, took Bar and Loraine and Metz from Provance in a excommunication war and then united the burgundy territories. I am allied with a big Trier and a Mainz who give me constant access to the lowlands if I ever need to pass into my western duchy.

One thing missing about the Palatinate: Your ruling dynasty is the "von Wittelsbach". Same as Bavaria, Denmark, Sweden and Norway in 1444. There are some fat scandinavian PUs for you to get.

Hem, the Prince is not how to be the most douchebag ruler, it is how to be the most efficient ruler. It was very revolutionnary at the time, as most of the books for princes and kings were fond of moral and do what is the most fair. Machiavel said that to unite Italy (his ultimate goal), and rule without too much problems, you can't be a moral ruler, you have to do some immoral things ^^

It's easier to form as the Teutons, however they obviously aren't in the HRE. Additionally, you have to constantly keep the burgher estate happy or else the Prussian Confederation event will pop and ruin your campaign. Brandenburg also starts out with Prussia's mission tree while the Teutons don't (they don't have their own mission tree).
