In this video titled EU4 A to Z - Is This THE WEAKEST NATION In Europe? I do a playthrough as Clanricarde in Europa Universalis 4 1.33 France. This is the series titled A to Z where I attempt to play every* nation in EU4 in alphabetical order. Of course I had to remove some nations so the challenge doesn't get too boring. In this video I play as the nation of Clanricarde, and I attempt to form Ireland and defeat England as one of the weakest starting nations in EU4. So let's see if I managed to do it! I hope you guys enjoy this series. If you enjoyed this video consider leaving a like and subscribing for more content in the future.

    Cleves needs to control Cleveland (the city in northeast Ohio on Lake Erie). Quite a lot of colonization to be had to reach there, and a bankruptcy or two may be inevitable to pay for all those colonies.

    In case you didn't know, higher Cav flanking ability basically means you can have more than 4 cav in your armies. Maybe 6-8 because of the 50% increase, which will also increase your shock damage by a LOT and possibly allow you high chances of stackwipes (if rest of your army quality isnt horrible). But, for a poor OPM like an Irish minor, it's useless since you can't afford Cav at all 😂

    Im from Connaught, was really disapointed with Connaught/Clanricarde, Connaught is just as interesting as other nations of Ireland, infact, its flag is the Coat of Arms of a Bavarian Family, Schottenklöster, because the Ruling family loved it so much, and something to do with sponsoring a church in Bavaria, showing our German friendship. Connaught is home of High Kingship too, and the last High King of Ireland was from Connaught. Along with plenty of Interactions with Grainne Ubhaile/O'Malley the Pirate Queen. It's a massive shame that Ireland got shafted but an even bigger shame that Connaught was tossed to the way side. Given we're the furthest from England, everytime I play it, it becomes a race to unify Ireland before England can claim it, so it would be much more fun if something like that was a possible route in the mission tree. But oh well, Paradox ignoring things is a given. Regardless, great vid Red, glad to see you playing my home Kingdom, Connachtaigh go deo!
