My biggest complaint about this massive effort is that it doesn’t create a giga empire. You can do it with the Roman Empire, why not Africa?

It's a crime that the decision gives you only 750 prestige lol. It should be a lot of renown like for the Iberian struggle
The unify Africa event is so underwhelming given the huge achievement you just did.

You play at such a high speed that sometimes you'll miss small stuff. I think the reason why you lost some of those battles at the end was because your armies didn't have commanders. The previous leader died and you didn't fill the spot, which makes your armies basically paper mache

Slavery wouldn't have happened, or it would have happened in a much smaller size than it did, because tribes would have worked together to repell the invaders and not tried to enslave their rivals and made money off it Also, having the ability to collect resources and riches with that size, could have resulted in a country similar to India. It's very romantic and nice to think how that could have happened. An african empire of that magnitude would be beautiful.

36:57 if you had captured the red parts of the war target then you would have kept those aswell as the dejure africa borders and could have gotten all of it in one war. That's how invade kingdom cb works. You also get anything that you control during the war that is outside their dejure realm! thanks for the video!

can you keep making 1 hour video like this . i like it
Uniting Africa is pretty time consuming, but it's not actually as tough as it looks thanks to the gold mines and lots of your opponents being pretty weak. Taking over Tibet starting as a count felt much more miserable, despite the smaller land area; the lack of income really makes it feel like your never getting anywhere.
I have a request for a video idea, Play as the Bjarmians I think it's a cool idea to take Russia as a people form there. You are a great and fantastic content creator!

"Alkebulan" isn't the original name of Africa. It means "Land of the Blacks" in Arabic. The idea of it being "the original name" is a pseudohistorical concept invented by various African American groups in the US. There was never a name for the entire continent, indigenous or otherwise, until "Africa" (originally the name of a Roman province whose origins are unknown).

Your Men at Arms are considered to be at your capital. So when you raise them a continent away, it takes them a while for them to get there. You could move your capital, but it is probably better to just deal with it.

in the next series you should try to unite all of Europe
I like how europe hasn't changed
I'm amazed there weren't more attempts on your life with ruling such a large amount of land. I'm sure long-term playing this large would bring a lot of drama, lots of assassinations between vassals I imagine.
Loved the series. You should do another Game of Thrones series.
They gotta make the reward for that better imo. Maybe even some sort of cool new Empire.
Can you continue the series? Unite Africa with Iberia, Britain, Western Europe, etc. It would be interesting to see this dynasty continue as well as try to invade more land and try to keep the realm stable. Each empire/area could be an episode long.
While invading a Kingdom u can conquer stuff oudside the wargoal and get them aswell
for later playthorughs: when you educate your childs and you want them to be a good steward, the guardian needs to have primary good stewardship and only secondary good learning. there are many factors, but if you have a genius educator and he has only maybe 5 stewardship then the child wont get a good education.

@@SnapStrategy i read a whole thread about it. There are more factors like university etc. ,but the three most important things i kept in mind on that in order are: having an guardian overall makes a huge difference, second most important having an guardian with a high primary stat of the education of the child and the last as a secondary is a high learning stat.
Next step would be a world conquest from this
7:05 The lack of a culture head is because no counties have your culture, don’t know if you find that out later in the vid but figured I’d inform you.

You saying that it took 9 years to win the war reminded me of that time I fought Croatia for 17 years and surrendered because it took so long
You messed up twice 1 just retarct vassals lower that kings power 2 you should have just promoted culture in your most developed county that would boost your research since it is based off your average you should also make hybrid with aken culture they have an alsome tradition
would be cool to to see you try do the mongol empire!!

Hey, Snap Strategy, there's a bit of a mistake in this video, Alkebulan, this is not the original name of the African Continent, this however is an Arabic name for Africa first seen in literature around the 16th century,
What if this Africa made conquest to the new world first before Europe? That's some interesting alt history fanfiction world building potential right there!

Alkebulan is not an “original” name for Africa, there is no historical evidence to suggest this whatsoever. It was most likely appropriated by notorious anti-Semite and pseudoscientist Yosef Ben-Jochannan in 1972, as the only other reference to it is in Thevet’s 1575 work “Cosmographie Universelle”. At most it is Arabic (although “kebulan” is not a word in Arabic), but it’s most likely pseudo-Arabic and means nothing. Even assuming that it is Arabic, it wouldn’t be an original name either since Arabs aren’t native to Africa as they invaded and conquered North Africa in the 700s. “Africa” is a better name for it in my opinion, as it was at least created by Carthaginians during Roman times. The concept of modern Africa as a continent wouldn’t even have existed a long time ago, as they had no way of navigating past the jungles in central Africa or through the dangerous waters of Cape Bojador. I just thought someone interested in history would like to know this.
