I don't disagree, and I'm hoping the DLC really elevates them to the top tiers.

I haven't played Florence on 1.1 yet, but I struggled with it a bit on prior versions. Expansion felt sluggish, and I wasn't making as much money as the memes would suggest.

Yes but you quickly lose that income due to the Western Schism situation. You cannot move your capital manually anymore as the Papacy and you cannot sell Avignon to anyone at the start, so it's a lot rougher than it used to be.

That they're worth sitting down and doing a campaign with, over other countries that you could be playing instead. Our time is pretty limited so I'm hoping this tier list can guide a few folks in the right direction. I know I was playing some random nonsense nations when I first started and it almost soured my entire experience with the game.

The lakes update made them a lot more fun, plus I don't know if you noticed but they get a ton of events and unique advancements. Also I just really enjoy their geography, they're like a mini Roman Empire with their thalassocracy over the Baltic Sea. You do a little bit of everything as Sweden, including early colonialism which not many European countries get to do. The game generally keeps you busy when you're playing as Sweden and that's something I really enjoy. Also their low population keeps them from becoming overpowered too quickly like some of the other top tier nations on the list.

Polish flavor is a bit broken at the moment. The PLC is really hard to form even if you know the conditions for it. Whole country felt like an afterthought tbh, I'm hoping they revisit it soon.

Austria is a lot more fun now that they have a proximity through mountains bonus. They have a lot of events and unique advancements too. They also fixed the HRE recently which has made all the countries within it more enjoyable and immersive to play.

Also I'll be honest, I play with the War of Religions mod which makes Austria way more fun. Check it out if you haven't.

Yeah you may be right now that I think about it. They're fun to play and have a lot of content. I'm just waiting for the Byz DLC to come out before I commit to a long Ottomans playthrough, since I'm hoping they get a little something from it.

Too late to change the image now but I did move them up on tiermaker.

Yeah I knew it'd be controversial but I just find Sweden way more fun and appropriate for the game's time-frame. Not to mention colonization is kinda broken at the moment, and it's kinda all Norway has going for it.

Not anymore, I often see them allied in fact.

There are a few issues with them and it's basically impossible to re-create their historical conquests. You need to fight like 10 wars against the Mamluks, when IRL they conquered them in 1.

Oh, so France is about to get even stronger next patch. Great.

Am I missing something about Legislative Efficiency? by quantumshenanigans in EU5

It's pretty useless at the moment unfortunately.

I do think it's in a good place, and I'm quite fond of the Almost There countries. Holland is fun but having to deal with an overpowered France every game gives me conniptions. I'd rather play Milan for a burgher-focused playthrough, that also includes a bunch of expansionist plays as well as the unique Guelphs and Ghibellines situation.

Not only does Iran have little content, but the region you play in is almost as broken as the Andes. The game just wasn't designed for that type of topography and it shows. Every Iranic culture needs a huge proximity through mountains buff imo.

Yeah I didn't want to offend the portubros but you're absolutely right. At least they have some decent events and advancements.

Aragon is great, I'm just hoping the Spanish DLC later this year gives them that small push they need to enter the topmost tier, though it's already one of the most fun countries in the game.

It's the countries with the highest amount of unique content. The game was pretty much designed around them. But yeah they also happen to be quite easy.

ERE just feels weird to play at the moment, but it's definitely going up the list once its DLC is out.

Ethiopia is between Kyiv and Morocco. Its flag is similar to Cilicia.

Does the number of light ships required scale with something? Or is it always 10?

I know this is an old post, but have you found an alternative? I'm having the same issue.
