I Created MOST BROKEN VIKING EMPIRE in Crusader Kings 3
Ойындар
What if I told you that there exists a VIKING empire SO BROKEN and SO POWERFUL in Crusader Kings 3, that less than 2% of all CK3 players had the achievement to form it? With THREE incredibly powerful Kingdoms underneath it, we're talking about THE NORTH SEA EMPIRE!
In the 867 start date, The Pagan Viking Norse rule the north in Crusader Kings 3! And in the last video, we conquered and unified all of Norway as none other than Harald Tanglehair! Who then became Harald Fairhair!
But today, Harald Fairhair, the strongest Viking in Crusader Kings 3, Sets his sights on the HIGH KINDOM OF THE NORTH SEA! This incredibly strong CK3 decision to unite the thrones of Norway, Denmark and England into one SUPER empire: North Sea!
This is the second part of the adventure, as in the first part I played as the soon to be King of Norway, one of the strongest and most broken PAGAN Kingdom starts in all of CK3, as the legendary Harald Tanglehair, the first King of Norway, mythical for his vow to never cut, brush or wash his hair until he fulfilled his oath to unify the Vikings!
You can watch the first part of the Harald Fairhair adventure here: • I turned NORWAY into t...
I will be using all the tips and tricks and strategies that I went over in my CK3 Lifestyle guide series, mainly focusing on Martial and Learning! I'm also playing with all the current CK3 DLC, Including Northern Lords, Royal Court, Fate of Iberia and Tours and Tournaments!
In this video I also use a strategy that I showcased in my Diplomacy Lifestyle Guide video! Diplomacy is the first out of five different Lifestyle focuses that you can pick for your character in Crusader Kings 3. But how GOOD is it? It's absolutely BROKEN! And in that guide I will teach you how to exploit diplomacy to conquer all of Scandinavia WITHOUT a single war!
This is also the first video featuring the new channel art by our very own super talented @Middovah
Check him out!
The question still stands... How did I go about it when I Created MOST BROKEN VIKING EMPIRE in Crusader Kings 3

I formed my own High Kingdom a few hours before your vid uploaded, I united Norway, Assasinated and conquered the Danes, and then trolled the English. But then my king died and my heirs have been drowning the realm in blood and debt ever since.

CHALLENGE! Do the reverse of the popular Viking Raj challenge. Play as a Hindu character from India in 867 and try to form either the North Sea empire or Scandinavia. Note: if you do decide to do this, you will likely need to hybridize your Indian culture with Norse and choose the Norse heritage option to have the decision for the North Sea available. I’m not sure though- it might be available regardless of culture.

I’ve done this before lol, it’s shockingly easy to get the Scandinavian mega-empire rolling once you get started Since you pay men at arms with prestige you can basically have unlimited amounts after a certain point too.

DOUBLE CHALLENGE!! As a Norse character Establish Norman Culture, THEN conquer England and Embrace English Culture.
I have wanted to do a 1066 start as Harald Hardråde and forming the North Sea that way. It's quite tricky, since all three Kingdoms have Electives, and Harald dies quite soon. Denmark is an easier start, since they have claims on both Norway and England, but Harald actually starts off being able to take England. (I always marry off a son to gain an Alliance with the HRE, which makes Wilhelm less conquering)

How about making a Dwarf Viking Kingdom?
It's always weird to me that they didnt make Heljarskjinn look like a siberian, as his mother was a Nenetsian samoyed and he famously inherited her looks, thus the name (black-skin).

The only thing stronger than the hatred between Norwegians and Swedes is the love between Norwegians and Swedes.

I just got North Sea Kingdom myself in my current run, but as Sweden. I forgot that North Sea title turns you feudal, so I instead jumped to feudal the hard way and then formed the High Kingdom of the North Sea. At some point I took England and claimed Paris for a while, but lost it cause during my push for taking Denmark cause I had 2 crusades called on me Sitting at 1100AD, and I'm thinking that i may turn my sights to Italy for those crusades that got called on me...

I tried to do this challenge, united Norway as Harald. But he died of cancer at 30 years of age, tried to save him by doing some extreme treatment. He became a eunuch after the extreme treatment which helped a little but not much.
Much oil to be found in the North Sea Empire.
I am a bit surprised you have yet to do the Kingdom of North Sea
Form North Sea Empire, Take all of Britannia, Convert to Insularism, Create New religion of your choice that will take all of insularisms holy sites. You'll also be able to receive the bonuses from the christian holy sites in Vikin, Uppland, and Skane.
