Theodoro was my first nation in EU 4. I assumed it was like CK 2, where starting as a tiny realm was encouraged. Needless to say I was annexed by the Ottomans within about 30 years.

Ive noticed these sort of timelines happening much much more since the last update, venice usually blobs out and takes out the ottomans, timurids usually always blow up but then resurge like 150 years later and blob. Ming is ming. France is 50/50 now between exploding and blobbing. the timelines are always wack now.

You are way to quick to be negative, I no where in my comment say I didn't like the way it is now. In fact it's quite the opposite. I love everything about it except how rich Venice gets. It's literally impossible to beat them in a war later on if they blob too much because they will hire literal 100's of thousands of mercs and continously hire more as they get wiped out. Had a war in the mid 1600s that last about 10 years before white peace where I chewed through almost 2 million Venice soldiers. I checked the ledger right before peacing out just curious and they still had over 300000 ducats.

You have no idea how much we need a part.2.

The nation of Theodoro has a lot in common with Laith, and indeed the late music overlord, Prince. They're all funky, little, purple guys. They all like to grow out curly hair, and whispy, almost non-existent mustaches; and they all have annoyed Tipper Gore in the past. Prince, when his song "Darling Nikki" was the impetus for her to create the Parental Advisory sticker. Theodoro, when Tipper followed Al Gore to a conference in Ukraine, just after the collapse of the USSR, and Boris Yeltzin drunkenly hit on her. Finally, Laith, when she happened to tune in to one of his EU4 livestreams, and was appalled when Laith stood up from his gamer chair, and wasn't wearing anything below the waist.

Laith I'm pretty sure they said Muscovy can now form Russia as a subject so they can get their frontiers, so PU'ing them now is safe.

Laith crawling back to muscovy like an abused ex

You gotta respect laith for keeping the branding coherent. He's social AND he's streaming. Incredible.

Hello Mr Laith I have been watching your videos for a very long time you are very good at the map game. Sometimes when you post video my heart skips a beat. Thank you for consistently putting out great videos you deserve the 200k subs you're about to hit!!! Loved watching channel grow

It's funny how being massively in debt never seems to deter my allies from calling ME into a war!

That muscovy ally was golden

My beloved

Is there ever a moment when you’re not ‘horrendously ill’?

I haven't played the new patch or Theodoro, but my instincts tell me you need to speedrun mil tech 4, go ham on the forcelimit and punch Crimea in the face ASAP to not be eaten. Consolidate, find better allies, rinse and repeat in the direction you feel the weakest. And unless special circumstances - do not go into Commonwealth until you established Muscovy as PU. Also, when Laith was not bordering GH, that was a best CB opportunity if I ever saw one.

This was so fun can't wait for the next one. The video was so long really fun

You deserve 200k subs so bad man. Great video even while sick 😂

Laith could’ve went Offensive + Innovative

58:43 Honestly I think economic could've been the play here. Deceptively good for economy and pretty sure its got good policies. Also, recovering from deathwars is nicer since paying back loans reduces inflation if I recall, whilst interest is less. It's a nice QOL idea group. Also 100% should have converted religion with muscovy being muscovy. AI does kinda care, and can get bonuses to people in your religion liking you. Muslim I think converting gives them Opinion of you, so easier to snag mamlukes and or persia.

Part 2 when?

Please, mak the next part

It was fun seeing Laith getting attacked by literally everyone in existance and winning that...somehow. I still have no idea how this worked, but I guess its just skill. You could also forget Muscovy, as they just declined to help you like 3 times? It's not Theodoros problem when they are damn poor. When Kazan started to delete them, it was karma. Such an abusive husband. But I still wonder if you can form Germany with them, since you're germanic. Oh well, we will see that next time I guess. See ya 😉

seemed like RNG was stream sniping.

I think the reasoning is that by the point of 1444 they has lived for many centuries under greek influence and thus could be considered more greek than germanic.

​@@sizanogreen9900 , There is actually not much sense for goths to be germanic. The game separates Nordic and even English in there own culture groups, so, ideally, goths shoud be in there own very small eastern germanic group. Making them germans also makes other germans desire southern part of Crimea, which totally doesn't make sense neither historically nor gameplay-wise.
