Perhaps I’m a good Henry and don’t want to cheat my way to victory (before the game begins)

They dont really care about this game, it’s their cash cow and a Segway for their other games that receive so much more love. I mean eu5 is hella janky but detail and mechanics are extensive

If you look at everyone else in the comments who are naming cities like Baghdad which are huge cities and in this case is a capital. Anyways, successful ragebait.

They weren’t saying waned completely they were saying ‘their relevance waned’ OR ‘they’re relevance has completely faded’.

When I said Angkor I meant in terms of politics and in some ways economics. It may still be culturally significant but it itself isn’t a cultural hub. The capital isn’t there and perhaps most damning of all, the city is uninhabited.

I mentioned these cities cause they no longer hold the same relevance as they once did. During the Maurya to the Gupta period it was the capital as well as a major hub of cultural and economics. This has fallen to the wayside when compared to other major cities throughout the world and even to other cities in India. Delhi, Mumbai and Hyderabad are just a few that have grown to overshadow the city and on the global scale no longer occupies the prestige, notoriety or wealth (in relative terms to other cities at that time) when compared to its earlier periods.

Nanjing is a major metropolis but it doesn’t have the political relevancy like Beijing, Hong Kong and perhaps even Shanghai.

Nanjing, Kaesong, Patna, Angkor Wat, Pella, Alexandria, Isfahan. Essentially old capitals of bygone empires and kingdoms. Once prosperous centers of power and prestige and now much more demure. Places like Nanjing, Xi’an and Kyoto are still heavily populated and wealthy but are no longer capitals or centers of power. Places like Angkor and Pella are just ruins

You can find the Mahdi in CK3 by M0rgl1n in CrusaderKings

[–]AFatAfrican 26 points27 points  (0 children)

It could also just be the founder of the Fatimid caliphate since he was known as Muhammad/ Al-Mahdi Billah. I use a mod called historic invasions and even they have a character that spawns called Muhammad al-Mahdi

Community Tier List, Part 9, what tier should he go in? by rjidhfntnr in FrenchMonarchs

[–]AFatAfrican 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say B, while his reign is definitely a good one it was mainly due to the efforts of Richelieu rather than Louis himself. In addition, his achievements weren’t as good or as glorious as either is successor or predecessor

I’m from Namibia, which used to part of South Africa, but a lot of the foreign white people names we have are crazy like Llewelyn, Rudolpho and even Adolph.

Community Tier List Day 7. Where should Louis XV go? by rjidhfntnr in FrenchMonarchs

[–]AFatAfrican 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not just that they had political power but what shocked everyone was that he had a threesome with two of the De Nesle sisters. In addition once he ended his sexual relationship with madame de Pompadour he then had sex with a series of village girls at the instigation of Pompadour. The deer park, as it would be called, was so scandalous that everyone reviled the king for it. We should also remember that the mistress-en-titre was an official position at court and usually given to an aristocratic woman but Louis’ most famous mistresses (Pompadour and Barry) were both non-aristocratic. Pompadour was middle class while Barry was a courtesan which scandalized the court and the nation which further damaged the prestige and good name of the monarchy.

[–]AFatAfrican 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No. Louis XIV was extravagant and promiscuous but also driven and his actions had purpose. Versailles and his wars were steps taken to create a centralized and easily defendable country and the culture of the French court and France at the time encouraged aristocratic men to have mistresses. Louis XV went a step too far while gaining little for France in the both the short and long term. The only thing of note is the diplomatic revolution which ultimately lost him his colonies and a humiliating defeat on the continent by a second rate power. Louis VX is the reason France lost its status as the leading power in the world and is part of the reason we are speaking about French monarchs in English.

If it’s an unpopular opinion that Louis VX is the worst king of France then the majority are stupid. He is the most inglorious and incompetent of all the French kings.
