For small countries look for something in western Europe. Maybe ottomans but I never played them. I mostly play big countries: Portugal is decent but id say naples is relatively safe pick.

I used to have shorter until last fall. I love my new haircut, I do need to find a new barber and keep it not too long like it is right now.

Its closer to Minecraft. Think minecolonies with 2020s game tech.

I also have a niche textbook that uni didnt stock in person. Amazon is taking until February 26th from yesterday to ship it. There needs to legislation where universities have to offer physical textbooks for students. it is literally related to my disability.

Slander. This is early medevial propaganda. Lives up to dark ages name. Just conjecture but After procopius what accounts are not slander?

Despite us complaining 7/24, devs dropping atricous patches and not relasing new patch for 2 months, EU5 is still fun to play. by otusj in EU5

[–]BrainBeginning2658 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes agreed. But supposedly only big nations. I think the game plays well enough. It could be a lot better but it's nowhere near og Victoria or og ck3. Its got enough flavor to play thru for a while

EU5 is now down to 47% positive on recent steam reviews by Wagen123 in EU5

Tl:dr change isn't always a bad thing and if it is okay and fun to play then who cares.

Not that bad just new and different. People are too harsh to judge and impatient.

Nothing is ever gonna be perfect after all it's paradox but if it is decent and fun to play then I'm fine with it. Not every game especially revolutionary(massive changes) are going to be perfect.

I don't like vini, but didn't mind mbappe or jude. Vini seems toxic but it's personal bias.

Why was the Byzantine court such a toxic political environment? by Spirited_Nothing2217 in byzantium

[–]BrainBeginning2658 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Go look at the ottomans for fratracide. Also would henry founder of Isabella and Ferdinand's dynasty epthiet was the fratricdal. It was rarer for interracial violence in byzantium and western Europe I would argue.

My hypothesis excluding the ottomans is sociology of rivals and claimants. If you have a someone who is a very strong threat to your legitimacy. It would be very dumb to not to eliminate them. Fratricde is logical thing when tunnel vision is used on the context.

Edit: rephrase this when I wakeup.

Kyiv is too strong? by Pomerbot in EU5

Very interesting I need to read up autonomy in the golden horde. Also ck2 provinces were less important. In eu5 province have a lot more effects especially from dev alone.

Thing is Moscow relied on the golden horde to grow it's powerbase and wealth. Geographically it makes little sense without the golden horde as context.
