NAVARRA is the HARDEST START in EU4.
Ойындар
EU4 Navarra is one of the hardest starts in EU4 - but also one of the most fun nations in EU4! Navarra in eu4 has some really great achievements and can be said to be in a top 10 eu4 best nations list. But I digress, in this video, we fight EU4 aragon, EU4 england and even EU4 France - all while allied to EU4 Castile. Can I unite Iberia starting as the basque nation? Or will I crumble under the weight of coalitions in EU4?
In any case, remember NAVARRA is the HARDEST START in EU4.

Here's what it said "Both Spanish and Basque (Español and Euskera) are official languages in Navarra. Spanish is more spread than Basque in Navarra, and everybody can speak Spanish in this land, but Basque is also spoken by a wide part of the population specially in the north of Navarra and Pamplona as a native language."

Try Finland. You got to start as Sweden and then play as the released vassal, but it's definately the hardest start I can think off. No one will help you in your independence war as no one dislikes a PU'd sweden. You'll probably be fighting solo vs Sweden, Norway, Denmark, perhaps Holstein and Denmark's allies.

Just got the Basque in Glory achievement over the weekend and the Navarra start is rough. Took a couple runs to get a start that could lead anywhere. However, once going, it was fun. Got Portugal as a vassal and Spain and France under PUs. Had to fight Austria and Spain to enforce the Spanish PU, but the French one is in the mission tree once you have Gascony.

Sancho III of Pamplona (later renamed Navarre) did something similar. At the height of his power just before his death in 1035, he had vassalized most of the Pyrenees and even the nominally French Gascony, placed his son on the throne of Castile as his vassal, and even held León. He had control of all of the non-Muslim portions of Iberia except for the Kingdom of Galicia, the county of Portucale, and county of Barcelona. Upon his death his empire was partitioned between his 3 legitimate sons (oldest got Navarra, second got Castile and León, third got the Pyrennes). The Basque King of Castille would later succeed in subjugating León, Galicia, and Portucale. Meanwhile one of Sancho's bastards managed to take over the Pyrenees and establish the Kingdom of Aragón. The descendants of Sancho III, all Basque, would continue to rule vast stretches of Iberia for centuries thereafter, losing their last holdings in 1234.

Navarra is fun, it's definitely 'hard' if you don't know, but once you do it's pretty easy. I liked it even before it got its own mission tree. Totally doable once you know how to handle the 'bumps'. Sometimes it's better to bend over to Castile or Aragon and become their subject and then independence war with support if you can't ally France. If you can ally France it's easy, you can attack England but then get favours from France by taking nothing and giving them everything that they'd likely get on their own anyway then use those favours to wreck either Castile or Aragon. Though getting favours is a lot easier then it was before sooo. Edit: Wow having watched it you got it relatively easy, sure you needed a bit of luck but Aragon didn't have other major allies involved so you could solo it. Still well played regardless.
Empire of Mann achievement not only for how hard but how long it takes is harder than Navarre
After good time of AI Granada in Athens series it's time to conquer them by yourself!
GOOOAT
Finally, the counter to long Slovakia
U can ally ottomans really easy if you go for the independence and you can stay as an ally
