Looks like the Holy Japanese Empire needs some work to let it be functional. Absolutely wild how much living space that Austrian Germany got. Also, that US was based.

Idea: EU IV, but we are in the mirror world. All bonuses (in percentage), whether it's for missions, ideas, technology, buildings, wonders... they are inverted. If they gave +15% now a -15%, and vice versa. Bonus track: the world map is also inverted.

[@jeffbeagle5102]

Shit idea

[@TheGatrGamr]

Has Chewy done anything like this with Ming? Splitting Ming into all the fragmented tags and making Ming emperor of the Holy Chinese Empire?

[@GustavSvard]

Idea: South Asia is the HRE. hm. The dream would be if there could be more than one HRE in the game. Germany, yes. But also one for the the Kalmar Union. And one for the British Isles. And one for India. And one for...

[@Nerazmus]

I have more relocated HRE mods planned and I will be sending them Chewy's way, so you might see them in the following weeks/months. Not going to be scripting more than one HRE tho :D

[@GustavSvard]

@@Nerazmus Does the game even support having more than one HRE? Like, could you make another one under a different name (including under the hood, so to speak) and it would work? I don't think I've ever seen anyone do that.

[@adamyang3264]

@@GustavSvard Anbennar mod has the Raja system, its pretty cool, but the UI is a little different

[@blorger]

@@GustavSvard no, HRE is very hardcoded and you cannot have multiple, or even change the HRE that much

[@GustavSvard]

@@blorger I suspected it to be so. Would be an interesting change for modding if they did open up the HRE function more. Likewise for China. But I doubt they'll do it, loads of work hours for possibly no real benefit for un-modded gameplay.

[@haritos90]

Region is called Ob because of the river Ob (with a soft B as Ob') in west Siberia flowing into the Arctic Ocean, which is one of the biggest rivers in the world

[@krullet3560]

Simple idea: Buff Byzantium again and see how much of their mission tree they can complete. It will bring out all the Byzantiboos lurking here on youtube who are back into EU4 since the last dlc. And I know you love a thic AI Byz.

Idea: HRE. Hindi Republic Empire. Make all the nations in the India Continent apart of its own HRE.

Please steal the idea!

The HJE should be call the Holy Chinese Empire or something, to match the theme of claiming something cool that isnt really accurate

[@Nerazmus]

Hmh. I wonder what happened there with Japan. Seems to work fine for me.

[@Chewbert]

Not sure, nobody was eligible from what I could tell. I was on 1.36 and recorded it before the patch was live so that might be an issue

[@ZetaArcticana4006]

It says that their not eligible to be the emperor due to the wrong government type. Probably an issue with using a 1.35 mod in 1.36

Magna Frisia! Friesland took back West Friesland. Nice.

[@SzymonJakichWiele]

I know most of the people came here just fornthe shogunate of Austria, but I belive the HJE would be a cool idea if it was working, and by saying working I mean that it doesnt dismantle automaticly. Idealy i would make ashikaha the first emperor, with the elections actualy working, it would be amasig if you forsed them to go centalisation, becouse lets be real Decentslisation is hella boring. I realy wanted to see a diplomaticly unified Japan but oh well. Don't get me wrong, I loved the video and the european side of conflicts, i just see room for improvement. But i love your videos anyway ❤

[@grigorpeykov2557]

Calling the Japanese the HRE would be more immersive, since neither are Roman anyway

[@hoi-polloi1863]

"What? Everyone *else* is pretending to be the Roman Empire, why not let us have a turn!"

[@goldenfiberwheat238]

Better idea: holy Han empire

[@Fabioonn]

But in the end what does Roman realy mean? I think the Roman Empire is the friends we made along the way.

[@abyssmoon6940]

HRE was roman they revived many of the roman offices and laws and customs they were also holy since they were the protector of christendom (nothing to do with pope the beef between emperor and pope came from the fact that the HRE was holy on its own) it also was defently an empire and for its time it survived a really long time for being that big at the end 2 empires got created by its members

[@hoi-polloi1863]

@@abyssmoon6940 Not to mention, it was founded in 800AD and lasted til 1806. Pretty damn good run, if you ask me! It's just fun to tease them as "Germans pretending to be Romans".

Hey, what do you think of giving of monuments to ternate? They tend to colonize a bit around Indonesia, but never actually do anything. Would love to see them packing a punch ;)

The Japanese HRE should be called The Holy Chinese Empire, or at least The Holy Ramen Empire.

How about for a future video give all countries of a certain colour bonuses i.e. blue countries in the hope that at the end of the game the whole map will be covered in just blue countries

Well, now we know that the Shogun of Germany is best Shogun. Except *maybe* the Shogun of Harlem. Too bad about Japan, though. They must have seen the letterhead for their new empire, saying "Heiliges Japanisches Reich" and noped out.

Is it even possible to be HRE emperor, have mandate of heaven and be a shogun?

[@FlawlessFlaw]

No. HRE Emperors can only be Christian, Chinese Emperors must be Pagan or Eastern religion. Shogun only requires you to have the daimyo government reform, but Shoguns are prohibited from becoming Chinese Emperors. So you can technically be a HRE Shogun-Emperor but that's it.

[@selcukavc9813]

you can hre and have mandate, you just need to past the reform fixing dynasty and then you can switch your religion to claim the mandate and take it. there is even an achievement for russia to be both hre emperor and emperor of china.

[@Chewbert]

First guy is wrong. You can be HRE emperor regardless of religion as long as you’ve made it hereditary before changing away from Christian, in vanilla. If it’s modded you can do whatever you want
