- CK3 Serbia is an interesting play. Today, we form the SERBIAN EMPIRE in CK3, a bit of a different CK3 Formable Nation as it's using a CK3 Mod. This CK3 mod adds additional start dates: basically a new CK3 start date! The Balkans is a hectic place and a CK3 challenge - the CK3 Byzantine Empire tries to destroy us as we attempt to stand up to the HRE and France!

*ignores half the game systems* "Why am I so much weaker?" Gee I wonder?
well, he is getting there. I remember times when he refused to do vassal management like at all:P
Also these Ck3 videos are pretty damn entertaining imo despite the suboptimal gameplay and that is all that matters to me.
He plays the game like one plays EU4, and it pains me quite a bit XD
Even me who's not an RP-er RPs a bit for characters I like.
@@sizanogreen9900 I just want him to fix up his characters looks. GIVE HIM DRIP DAMNIT
By that stage in the game, your nation should easily have 50,000 troops and make several hundred gold.
I know he started at a later date, but the deal with the early game is more to do with technology limitations, not time.
Speaking for the Greeks, I would gladly have the Serbians occupying us over anyone else (Would like to see some Byzantium in CK3 soon though)
Speaking for the Serbs, we would gladly fight beside you and do our part in a new Byzantine empire.
That the thing when tsar Dusan took the Greek (Roman) lands he left most of the nobles who surrendered to him because his title was "Christloving Emperor and Autocrat of the Serbs and Greeks, the Bulgarians and Albanians"
His conquest of Greece was unique for there was not a single large battle but only sieges.
He was also did not discriminate against Greeks and had massive Greek aid in his conquest since he was by lineage a relative of the royal Roman houses by intermarriage from former rulers etc.
And that explains why there were no rebellions against Serbian rule even after his death because except the change of name of the country everything else remained the same.
His court was modeled after the one in Constantinople, he wrote royal edicts in red ink (As the Roman emperors did), wore purple, wrote letters in both Greek and Serbian (The first documented Serbian swear word is his response to the Pope's request that he and all Serbia become catholic so he told the Pope to go to his mothers cunt)
@@paulgauthier7033no greece is definitely in the balkans
@@per4n main issue is getting the Bulgarians Macedonians and turks.
Serbian Emperor crownd him self Emperor of serbs and greeks so it was like a union
Stefan Dusan actually looks like his historical self, or at least the way he looks like on the fresco in the monastery of Saint archangel Michael near Lesnovo in Macedonia. Very cool little detail.
The Byzantine Emperor being your lover is a true enemies-to-lovers arc right there
Never realized just how much abuse Laith's mouse must suffer...
Mouse life matter
Mine suffers just as much if not more
The game knew you were trying to make something out of the Balkans. That isn't allowed, so every kingdom and half whit on the periphery is now forming to undo this error in judgement.
What if: You want a stable consolidated balkans
But God said: War of the fifth coalition
Bruh
Don't worry the Francian emperor was an English Plantagenet. England obviously won the war and promoted the French crown to be his primary title
Well, kinda, it was more like the King of England formed the Empire of Francia.
Makes sense since the English were seen as inferior to the French for the longest time and they did that 100 years war so they could be the king of France.
9:20 You have "bizantine tradition" in your culture, which doesnt allow castrated, disfigured, blind or any other kind of derformated character to conquer or inherit titles from people that have this same tradition.
12:05 When you gave the title to a character that isnt deformed you became able to declare war.
27:00 You could have destroyed your empire title and then clicked the button.
The game won't let you destroy your primary title, so he couldn't have clicked the button
you can't destroy an empire title when you don't have another empire title
Historically Anjou did rule Hungary
Came here to say this! Charles I and Louis I 'the Great' were both from the Anjou-Capeting house, from 1301 to 1382. Timeline checks out.
Yeah
Viewer from Serbia here. Been following you for more than 6 months and never requested this nor seen someone in the comments request it but thank you very much for making this video. If anyone has any historical questions about Serbia feel free to ask me. :D
How did Serbia become so powerful suddenly during the 1300s conquering the western balkans and northern greece and then lose to the ottomans
@Ram P Hello Ram.
There are a lot of factors that affected the rise of Serbia in the 1300s.
Cultural rise and recognition: At that time Serbia was ruled by Nemanjić Dynasty(1166-1371), considered to be the greatest dynasty that ruled Serbia ever. Education in Serbia started somewhere in the 12th century, thanks to Saint Sava(Rastko Nemanjić) education, health, science... developed significantly and the Christian Orthodox faith became the most followed faith with Sava being the archbishop of the Serbian Church. Serbia is known in history for being a small country of fearless people, a country forged in blood(meaning for red colour on the flag), crazy enough and driven by strong will Serbia was never scared to fight against stronger countries, which still applies even today, therefore, in 1300s Serbia didn't hesitate to wage wars against Byzantine Empire, Bulgarian Empire and the Bosnian Kingdom in a short period of time.
Becoming the Empire: Serbia ruled by Dušan The Mighty prospered more than ever. He was known as a great strategist and a very ambitious man, even before becoming king his wish was known among the people, he wanted to establish Serbian Empire. Following his ambition, the Serbian army was composed of well-trained heavy cavalry, light cavalry, and mercenaries from all across Europe, the army was built on the existing military administration of Byzantium. He was also a very respected and feared ruler, many sources say he was the tallest of his time with a height of over than 210cm. What happened is Byzantine Empire was in a civil war and concerned with the rapid spread of Ottomans at that time, so Dušan wasted no time and used the vulnerability of the Byzantine Empire and conquered Northern Greece in the final war in order to establish the Serbian Empire. Shortly after he was crowned Emperor in the capital city of Skopje. Serbia was considered one of the greatest forces of Europe at that time, but that didn't last long. Following the death of Dušan The Mighty the Empire was unstable under it's new ruler, son of Dušan, Uroš The Weak, whose nickname says it all. He wasn't capable of controlling territories conquered by his father and the Empire collapsed following Uroš The Weak death and loss in Battle of Marica in 1371 against the Ottomans.
Losing to Ottomans: It is very reasonable, after fall of Serbian Empire, Serbia was not the same, now it was ruled by Lazarević and Branković, surprisingly Serbia lasted longer than anyone expected and gave a hard time to Ottomans. The Ottomans suffered great losses in multiple battles against Serbia and Hungary. The whole Europe knew Ottomans were coming and knew Serbia had to hold them as much as possible, and it did. After composing the greatest army he could at siege of Constantinopole in 1453 Sultan Mehmed II didn't wait long and after 3y composed another great army to siege Belgrade which was controlled by Serbia from one side of the river and by Hungary from the other side, Serbia and Hungary won the battle. Not so long after Mehmed II launched another siege, this time the provisional Serbian capital of Smederevo in 1459, Smederevo fell. So after over than 70y of repelling Ottomans, Serbia fell. Fight was not over and Serbia fought battles many times for independence and finally got it in 1804. After more than 300y under Ottoman rule.
Answer: Serbia lived and fought with Byzantium, Bosnia and Bulgaria many times, there were marriages between the countries and times of peace and prosperity. When in war for Serbian Empire people knew who were they against, ways of living are the same, same religion, similar armies and languages... and Serbia was at it's peak at that time, but when Ottoman Turks came they were something new, their religion was different, language, look, armies, weapons, their numbers were greater since their religion allowed them multiple wives, Balkan countries needed time to find their weak spots and in all that stands Serbia weakend by lost territories and new rulers. The Ottomans were the far more greater force than Bosnia, Bulgaria and Byzantium Empire.
P.S. Hope I answered your question. Have a nice day. :)
How is Serbia right now?
@@kainwittrig2180 We're still recouping from the illegal nato bombing in 1999 and yugoslav civil war. Our economy is on the rise, but we have a post socialist leader, pretty much a dictator but one who doesn't exactly execute or imprison his political enemies, rather silences them through media control and propaganda. The foreign politic is to sit on as many chairs a possible at the same time. We're good with Russia and China, yet a good portion of our commerce comes from the west and it's not unusual for us to receive financial aid from the west, especially the US, ironically.
When it comes to the culture, it's pretty much a melting pot of worlds culture but without extremism. You can see both pro Russian rallies and rallies against the war condemning Russia. You can see gay parade and liturgies held by the Orthodox church against gay parade. It's one of the countries where freedom is the highest priority and you do actually have freedom compared to the rest of the world, especially compared to the west in the recent times with the rise of extremist far left culture in that part of the world. It's one of the best places to come and visit or to live in, especially if you have knowledge in IT and/or you're a digital nomad. The prices are lower than in the west, far lower than in US and Canada, and there are many new channels on youtube, american and canadian, that talk about how and why they moved to Serbia and their experiences.
Hope this answers at least a tiny bit about the current political state of the country. :)
"Help me out in this 1 on 1"
Laith, thats not how that works
I love how he hates that Francia exists, thinking Plantagenet lost the 100 years war, yet it exists because they took the French crown and unified them.
I think he hates the fact the English King delcared himself Emperor of Frankia, right?
Maybe? I can't look inside his head.
Yet.
The reason for your claims on half of Byzantium is a historical simplification. Basically, in the Empire at that time there were 2 Johns, Emperor John V Palaiologos and a powerful noble John Kantakouzenos, from now on referred as emperor John and noble John. Noble John declared himself emperor John VI and allied king Dušan to help him, promising that all the lands he occupied will be his to take. After some time Dušan had conquered all lands he could access that weren't noble John's personal domain. So he made a deal with emperor John to help him win the civil war, he would help the emperor win his war and in return Dušan gets all the lands he occupies. Thus he got half of Greece. Dušan actually wanted to take Thessaloniki and Constantinople but lacked the fleet to do so. But that didn't stop him declaring himself Emperor of Serbs and Romans.
There was a button to distribute titles in CK2. There's a reason it's not in CK3.
Yeah because letting your steward distribute your titles to anyone he wants isn't the smartest option
i would use it on RP games, just to flex on myself
@@bakrahabibi5471 It's infamously very useful and part of the strategy for this one zoroastrian guy in central asia where you can ask for the position and become a bigger landowner than your liege.
You should try something like this. I played an immortal viking midget and varangian adventured my way to Japan, leaving a horrible trail of Asatru and Norse in my path and turned Taiwan into an island of viking dwarves. I used the immortality trait mod and the asia expansion.
Well if there's one thing that's consistent with real life, it's that Stefan Dushan dies at the worst time possible.
Yes serbia such a weird place to call home, you had those claims at the beggining because Emperor Dušan conquered them irl btw
I am a Serb and you make Dusan the Mighty very happy with your virtual conquest for the Holy Serbian Empire! 3 finger salute to you friend
The Serb lands were from modern-day Ukraine to western Turkey. From the bottom of the Balkan peninsula to Southern GERMANY.
Please continue this campaign so we can watch Mali do a world conquest
Its beautiful
I've looked at this for five hours now
Because your special troops don't reenforce, it confuses your levy count. The total includes special soldiers who don't replenish. It sucks because you have to manually keep track of lost special soldiers.
You can choose your wards' education traits via the little circle near thei portrait
Anjou-Hungary, not that cursed knowing the Anjou dynasty did held the kingdom of Hungary for quite a while
20:20 Is he wiping a tear of pride for the AI Byz managing to invert its fall?
Never played CK3. But had to watch this one just cuz u play serbia
isto brate isto hahahahah
There's a weird bug involving titles De Jure in the Byzantine empire. You aren't De Jure able to inherit that title in Byzantine law (probably the disfigurement), which is supposed to also prevent a Byzantine vassal from declaring an internal war they historically wouldn't have been able to legally own.
However, it also prevents you from externally declaring on the Byzantines for those titles, which makes no sense at all.
It does, its from the culture (byzantine traditions).
Everyone that has this tradition cant have other characters from any culture with this trait conquering/inheriting their titles.
When you declare a war you have a casus belli ("reason to war"). If your own culture invalidates your casus belli then it does make sense.
Recently ran into this too on a Wily as the Fox run, my primary for Robert ended up being a hunchback and by the time I got to try taking Byzantine lands he was ruler. However it seemed to only apply to "Your Claims" CBs specifically.
I was able to get around the issue after taking the decision to secure the Mediterranean and using the Med conquest CB
@@rimanpele Except it works the other way around. It's their culture invalidating the Causis Belli, not yours. It's been a bug since first release.
@@rimanpele The issue is that one cannot declare war on characters with that tradition, even if they themselves don't have it. Why should a Norse invader care that his scarring makes the Byzantines question his claims?
6 Albanians have watched this video.
26:40 you know you pick those right?
there is a button where you pick that
This is what Serbia should be today BECAUSE FOR 24 THOUSAND YEARS ITS BEEN LIKE THIS
Srbija je Hrvatska
@@sadanbarakovic7318 hrvatska nema istoriju
the unholy anglo-frankish empire with its capital in wales
If Dusan had had a competent successor this would've been a reality
first of all no i am a greek and i have to say most of us love serbia secondly if it was any other nation in the balkans, unacceptable
You shouldn't be handing titles like that out to just literally the first person in line on the button.
It's why you always end up with powerful and disloyal vassals.
EDIT: I also noticed you're just keeping the disloyal vassals around in prison instead of, ya know, taking their titles and granting them to actually loyal people.
Vassal management is jsut too anoying
@@jako3015 but it's one of the core mechanics of CK3, why would you buy the game if you don't like it?
@@marcobisi7768 I can play the game perfectly fine without paying much attention to it.
He keeps them in prison as backup ransom money in the middle of his endless wars
@@cba2make1up Yeah. And it turns out being held in prison for 5+ years doesn't make them any more loyal when you let them out with a slap on the wrist.
What mod is this?
Yo, that's the entire Balkan
Ah yes the lore of Serbia into Yugoslavia in ck3 momentum 100
Should've used my dad is a war criminal as the intro
Dušan would be proud
Bro became Dusan the Mighty but only a couple centuries earlier.
Hey you could form a Krakow'ian empire in eu4 that would be very cool! (day 54)
I need to know what mod you used for the Balkans to look like that, this like a must for my next play through
Isn't anjou-hungry just good king rené's hungarian branch?
22:23 I thought it said that the house name was 'Austria-Hungary'
The anjou dynasty did rule over Hungary at some point in the fourteenth century
what mod is this? sorry if he said the name, I didn't catch it if he did lol
I watched this half heartedly while browsing Reddit but did he build a single building?
Just some Barracs and forestries
I would hope there's more being cut for pacing, but it's not very likely.
I started scream on half of the video😂
Angevin Empire part 2 when?
talking of why do they go the way that causes most attrition? i think they really need to sort out the auto route when sending ur armies to a selected destination.. in eu4 at least... i dont think they take the quickest route always... if u play a native tribe.. it will literally walk you around 7-8 provinces u own rather than thru 2 provinces that are unowned... and ive tested time taken and its quicker to go straight not go around but it always sends them around.. also.. i set my army to go back to my own provinces after a war (no black flag) & they come across a 12k rebel stack and just go straight thru it... surely they could make the game auto change the route to avoid some other nations rebels that arent in ur own provinces? its dumb
It would be cool if you could somehow maneuver your view so that it looks like you are the playable character instead of the actual character portrait :D
You get attrition if you go through a county that is completely surrounded by enemy counties even if it’s sorrunded on one side by the sea and the rest are enemy you won’t take attrition
Still surprised that vanilla CK3 doesn't have all these startdates from CK2. And it's not like the 2 remaining startdates are more polished out, the game straight up has less content, what a shame.
It was insane upkeep, and apparently the number of people who didn't play either the earliest 700s start date, 867 and 1066 was impossibly insignificant.
However, I am curious on what aspects of the current map that you want "polished"?
How do you start in these different bookmarks? I can’t seem to figure it out or did ya just play until the video start year?
Tsar Dushan of Serbia / Half-Bulgarian by origin from his mother side.
Actually 1/4 bulagrian because his mother was half Bulgarian, Dušan'paternal grandma is greek .
09:35 that didn't aged well 💀
Finaly found the thing i have been looking for
I'm a simple man. I see "Serbia" and I watch 😂
Louis I of Hungary was in fact an Anjou in real life, even king of poland
Laith you can choose what education you want your children to have by the way
Ah a vampire nation take over the Balkan
Im happy to see someone play my home country in ck3
I know you probably won't see this laith but pls try England in that start in that start date takeover france
How did he start at 1337 my game only has 867 and 1066. Does anyone know how did he get that start time?
Mod.
You could do the Unite the South Slavs decision if you destroy the empire title.
Can't destroy primary titles, can't downgrade your rank by destroying titles, and finally his primary title would need to be one of the Serbia/Bosnia/etc. Kingdom titles for it to be available.
What mod is this
You should've seen if you could keep Galicia Volhynia together
His adjective translates more as "the Mighty", but yeah it doesn't matter much just a little useless information.
Why don't we just take the route that doesn't kill is - Sun Tzu
now do it again but as principality of raska during the bulgarian empire and the rise of the holy roman empire edit: intel from a mobile game so idk if pincipality of raska existed during the rise of the holy roman empire but i know that bulgarian empire existed during that time i think
Anjo Hungary was a real dynasty..
This is awesome!
Anjous in hungary is very historical actually
31:40 Is anyone gonna tell him about Louis the Great of Hungary ?
"I hate you so much that I am willing to sleep with you and then expose you for it cuz I hate your guts." :'D
You're struggling with levies not regenerating because your domain is terrible. You aren't really investing in it, so it's incredible bad. So instead you're leaning on vassal levies, which are smaller and much slower to regenerate.
20:30 british historians worst timeline
How can Serbia exist when no keb ab exist to remove?
Finally good content
Damn.
is this vanilla? why is there a decision to form the serbian empire? I've been playing lately and I can't form it
How do you get mods like this
Why are the troop numbers in his game much higher than mine? Is this a new update?
This is a mod
It's late game, everyone's lands are developed and have most of the innovations etc
Hungarian Anjou we’re a real thing
