In case people don't know, you can unify and form the new nation int the "Cultures" tab, there you will have the tab which will lead you to the button to form it. I had similiar troubles when i finished unifying Germany, but I was still North German Confederation
Yeah old instincts lol
This. I don’t understand why pdx decided to move country formation into a different window from any other game the last 10+ years
for whatever reason comments were initially disabled. That is fixed now, Thank you all for watching and let me know what we should do next
day 2 of asking for monarchist Netherlands

You're just too based
Part two.
Just a thing that is stupid. to make Ethiopia you might find it under culture
You gotta let a general's battalions fill up after mobilising, before you put them on a front, otherwise all your guys will be at half or worse strength, and lose to half the numbers
if only the game told me that clearly
This needs to be top comment I don't think anyone knows this. Makes sense, but you never know the level of granularity a game is going to go in any one area.
For some reason in Vic 3 form new nations is in the culture tab not journal, so yes you can form Ethiopia
the combat system does have some reason but you have to go tho a dozen menus to see these things and the game does 0 to inform you of said mechanics.
Judging by how the AI acts, it's also using the values the player see easily to make decisions lol.
Seriously, how the fuck did this get through QA
The combat system makes no sense sometimes when you literally outpower your foes by a large amount
Fighting as China is indeed pain
mass armies just straight up don't work,
only in like Europe do you ever need more than 40 battalions per front, as it's based on the infrastructure of the battle site

"the one that brings shrapnel artillery beats the one with mobile artillery every time" - Sun Tzu, the Art of (Victoria 3) War
@SoapCanMan doesn't really change the fact that you can have overall larger more advanced army and still lose. Especially against an entrenched enemy.
Or because rng gives you 10 divisions to enemy's 20
Military system is more dependent on a hidden modifier (on a second screen of combat) of training rate and number of troops than on offence, defence and combat width. Basically, you want as medium combat width and as big barracks as you can so that your general always has reserves to draw from. Enemy will lose the battle when they run out of reserves because apparently morale straight up doesn't work

Violence is what got Ethiopia into that mess, and violence will get Ethiopia out of it.
it is always the answer

-Sun Tzu, the Art of War
Railways are not the only way to improve infrastructure, Ports set to anything that isn't the basic level 1 thing (so, they need to consume some kind of boat from your shipyards) give infrastructure too, though only in the coastal areas. (which is fine because that's where your iron is.)
Also for some reason nation formation decisions are in the Culture tab. Except when they aren't. Because everything is inconsistent in vicky3
There's coal around the African Great Lakes just to your south. If you can grab that early it's a big win.
good point, but you need colonialism first to be able to get to Uganda Rwanda and Burundi since you can't conquer the rift valley as they are decentralized
You could also try and conquer Madagascar
@@nightregiment3931 Yeah you got to plan your whole game around bee-lining colonialism ASAP before the Europeans start showing up and in this game stakuyi is already too late for that.
@@57ham yup! And then take over makran and kalat for lead and opium. If you can get Sindh before EIC you can get Sulfur as well. If not then wait for Colonialism and Quinine and then start colonalising South Africa, you'll find sulfur there. That's it you have all the resources now.
When you realize you could actually form Ethiopia by going into the culture tab.
In the whole war system, you also make a vital mistake @stakuyi. You advance with all your generals on the front, but you should really pick up your best attacking general modifiers and let him do the advancing, while your other less suitable generals can 'hold the line' by defending the front. That way you would have won 80% more of your battles. Nocap.
Eventually, I'd still like to see you try and turn the USA into a different type of government, like monarchist or anarchist.
Regardless, it was interesting to see your Ethiopia playthrough. I never knew much about their history, so I didn't know they were that separated back then.

I love it, sent me wheezing XD

You have to go into the culture tab and form Ethiopia as a nation.
Ports can build infrastructure (set them to cargo ports).
waiting for Zulu empire, the war system is really bad tho best war mod helps
Ports give some infrastructure though. At least helps slightly on coasts.
Oh, and unifications and nation founding is done in the Cultures tab
You need to look at culture there in the tab you find formable nation.
you should play hawaii in vic 3
Why didn't you form Ethiopia, you could've done it since 17:00
Probably because the button to form a new nation is hidden in a place not a lot of people are going to look for.
I think part of the problems was that your one or two division generals were attacking instead of your huge ones. Sometimes its better to use fewer generals/troops to prevent that. I find expelling diplomats gives to much infamy. With planning lowering relations is normaly enough. That said thanks for the interesting vids.
I’ve been playing Ethiopia and having a blast. The trick is to sign a protectorate deal fast after you unify the realm. I chose Austria, and while my border is technically closed I am now part of a broader Austrian market. This gives you access to iron, coal, etc early on.
Austria acts as a check against any greedy imperial power attempting to attack me, allowing me to colonize Africa and build a united greater African empire.
The other advantage is that you can force laws through, even if it radicalized landowners. If they revolt, Austria would intervene and ez clap, which also destroys their clout to 0%.
I’m at the point where I can repel France and Britain and seized Kenya. Good stuff
Victoria is such a strange game. Ethiopia HAS iron in Europa Univeralis IV. So unless all of Ethiopias iron mines deplete between 1821 and 1836...I dunno.
Is there seriously no event to form Ethiopia? They added an event for the zemene mesafint (Era of the princes) but not actually forming Ethiopia? That's kinda bullshit
Pro tip. Rush Isaaq, take their iron. Use their iron to produce firearms once you've got the tech, then it's an easy stomp of the rest of Ethiopia.
Please stop calling game "shit" just because you have no clue how to play it.
i mean before the update it was kinda shit... especially the war mechanics lmao
To be fair, the promising something to avoid unrest and then never following through on it is peak politics
Do a world conquest as Ethiopia please
in Vic 3 or HOI4?
@@stakuyi In real life
@@stakuyi whatever you want
For everyone wondering if it’s that Tewodros, yes it’s THAT chad of a ruler
Use sweden and try to reform the empire of gustavus adolphus’ empire
Tewodoros actually unified Ethiopia IRL.
for Japan I actually quite like isolationism but as some east African mountain opm? hell no
The bit where he was saying let’s conquer Tigray made me think he doesn’t watch the news does he
Playing Ethiopia truly is suffering
in almost every paradox game yes
I would say national guard is a solid start for an underdeveloped nation which supposed to go to war
Also I've noticed that "smaller" generals with small amount of troops generally (ha-ha) do better than high ranking generals with high number of troops
You also can increase infrastructute building ports, especially switching them to cargo ports

23:53. Hate to break it to you, but there's a reason it's only Railroads: until then, the *ONLY* thing that could move stuff over land was something that also ate food, which pretty severely limits how much and how far you can move stuff.
I mean yes, but just building roads would help with the goods moving around as well. Make it 5 infra rather than 20. And cost more. But it would become a boon when you get cars. Make it jump to 15.
Play as Prussia
Someone should tell him about ports...
They increase infrastructure by lots, also migrations solves that issue.
I know the game isn't fully flushed out but don't complain this much before you've played it, seems like you enjoy it :)
Posts gives infa but in land yeah it's annowing
the reeason, which everyone misses, why that prince is so good, is because he has a modifier which gives him like +36 something offense... its not his offensive planner trait at all which makes him good, that would give like +5 offense.
also youre losing battles cuz your not funding your military properly, so the training rate is low, so they dont regain morale... i dealt with this same thing, it was literally just cuz i wasnt funding my military, that morale difference is a big deal... but it is your fault... but they really dont explain what makes up morale at all.
You’re my new favorite TH-camr. Thank you for your videos.
I wonder what's dependent for the ai will do the free trade war because if you find that out then you have an easy way to fix many countries in this game
When you play a small power that can't have acess to most things (like coal and lead) you need to get into a custom union with a major power that has access to said resources, then you start producing things that are needed in that market, not yours.
As a newbie I did that my first bunch of runs. It gets old fast though as you don't get to balance an economy and play around with tariffs.
All of my baby single and double state countries end up turning into massive textile/glassware factories next to the gigantic fields of luxury crops.
@stakuyi the form etheopia descision is under the culture tab
at 16:00, check the manpower on your barracks. Smaller nations that try to chain wars will have manpower issues as it takes time for peasants to filter into the barracks and fill the jobs left behind by casualties. It's unfortunate how hard it is to see that info in the current warfare interface.
19:05, you had -100 war support. The game auto-capitulates you at -100.
24:00, i think Market Access itself is bugged. 99% market access in a state seems to result in a complete gridlock of resources going in and out, rather than a slight reduction in the supply chain, which seems wrong. The AI seems to happily run with slight market access deficits commonly, but the harsh impact may be part of why the AI is so bad at building its own economy. Rather than an early alternative to railroad, i think they need to make a slight dip in market access be less of a problem.
I know you can release the Haudenosaunee as the US, since they were already made of other united tribes, it would be cool if you played as them and replaced the United States as the major Union superpower in North America.
I wish the "Hehe" was a playable country just to have the Hehe empire.
Hehe
I played Ethiopia you can form it and other countries in the culture tab theres a whole section to form nations
You were losing that war cuz Your troops were exsausted by consiquative warring. Before triage and hospitals baraks need some time to hire back people.
You can form ethiopia in culture tab.
I’d go for lander voting first. The landlords will be neutral and won’t oppose you. Once the bill passes other interest groups could gain more power and join political parties. So you can fit more interest groups in government without a hit to legitimacy.
Does the Save-Reload cheat works on Victoria? Like, saving the game some couple days before the "change of bureaucracy dice roll" and reloading the game if it doesn't change, as much as needed?
If this works, it should make bureaucracy "perfectly balanced"...
From my experience it does not, except it did once when I loaded multiple autosaves back but I haven't been able to do it again.
Netherlands when?
Good to see Tewodros II is an absolute Chad in game as he was in real life
I decided to give Shewa another go while watching,,, I got professional army and abolished serfdom by 1838 lol
next you should play as America and try to maximise your immigration. just depopulate the rest of the world by making them move to the good ol U.S
Tip for ya to help with the government get generals that aren't landowners to boost the armed forces political strength. If there are none just hire the landowner and immediately retire them and look for a new one till you get armed forces. Generals boost political strength by 25% for the interest group they are with.
I was watching another streamer who played as ethiopia. The only way he got his policies on is by antagonising the intellectuals, having a civil war and taking their side.
Why didn't you just use some of the power you had, to suppress the landowners, wouldn't the rest of the groups get boosted instantly
"I just have a massive amount of wood as an Ethiopian".
There's a dirty joke in there somewhere.
Imma be honest
I feel like the Somali states next door don't get as much love as their neighbors even though their both as old as each other
Hm I wonder why you’re losing when attacking over mountains when they’re defending
I feel like battles have larger troop counts the more leaders you have splitting up your men. Idek
Ethiopian invasion of Arab Peninsula would be cool to see get control of that Red Sea Trade
Not stakuyi not realizing he only has 1 party
Part 2
Hey Stakuyi would you recommend that I send this video to my mom?
19:12 this is literally the war system Stellaris has used since launch, its still a pile of shit
15:00 Seems like you have something in common with Putin there.
Conservatives still being the same even in Africa 😆
24:46
Please pronounce "lathe" correctly. Thanks.
wait continue this to fight against the colonists properly
Vicky 3 is city skylines with only the economic part
4k likes needed me boys for seeing more of this he says :O
R u paying ur troops? That affects their strength
Hmmm yes lore of abyssinia in Vic 3 momentum 100
Like number 69 😎
nice 😎
Maybe there is a mod that improves the combat system?
What a coincidence. I started this same run today and went to TH-cam to validate my strategies. You started off with everything I thought too.
Also that Harar Frontline is a real bitch for some reason. I had 70+ when I started it and they had 24 and we stalemated until both of us were at 0.0 war support. So I just ignored it and focused on economy like a war wasn't going on. Eventually whatever bug it was went away and I made a single break through and then went to -100 instantly.
Is there a terrain advantage or something? Seems like they are defending from the mountain ridge visually.
Ports add infrastructure though, no?
Day 8 of asking Stakuyi to play CK3
Bro i had no idea u played paradox games, although in retrospect i should have figured. Every history buff likes their map games
Please do Barbary's back achievement with Algeria, I have tried like 10 times and can't seem to manage
First full video I’ve watched! (I see stakuyi and notgabbyb short videos on basically any app I have though) but very much enjoyed!!! Really hoping to see more Ethiopia it seems like fun!
wow i can comment now. @stakuyi technical difficulties? 😅
this game seems like a piece of crap system
It is a fun start and the region got some good resources but I always fail midgame to revolutions because the ruling class just won't give up their power freely and I have no idea how the combat system works
Railroads aren't the only way to build infrastructure. If you have a coastal province, you can build ports.
"African Power Rangers" 😆
“The moment you stop conquering you become a bastard!” Yeah, Teodwos gonna Teodwos.
Why didn't he form ethipia?
You are so lucky with GB
19:20 that's how I feel about Stellaris war exhaustion system. Which was also made by paradox.
can you stop screaming?
Somali gigachads strike again
More Ethiopia Vids! Whoop Whoop!
I need that part 2 now screw 4k Likes we need it now. You can't leave us hanging.
