    Having an absolute godawful-looking character is actually one of the greatest exploits. You can tell if your child is yours by looking if your children are also amalgamations of horror. Spiff is truly a genius.

    Your wife's cheating is probably the only thing holding the kingdom together. Her skills so good she has a dozen vassals hooked for life, and all those children are family ties to them to make them unable to leave even when they get older and not so in-power anymore, if you catch my tokyo drift.

    Honestly I'm kinda suprised that the 100 stat characters didn't speed it up even more, I've seen some less exploity videos that have had it done in admittedly a lot longer but in worse areas but took I think abt 3x as long, was expecting the 100 stat characters to reduce it by more than that.

      Befriending the steward and going for centralization perk could have helped a lot.

      Also not sure what culture his steward was but the game checks maximum development penality innovation of a steward and not the ruler

    Couple tips: if you’d made your wife Ace when creating her, then you could be confident that any of those “not my own” events would be false, because it’d be impossible for anyone to become your wife’s lover. If you had formed a hybrid culture, then you would’ve been able to become involved in the Iberian struggle, and potentially get the ability to further increase development with stuff like the “Sponsor Jewish Sciences” decision, on top of being able to research more quickly by having more developed counties of your culture. Also, if your development is growing quickly enough, then the “increase maximum development penalty” techs will honestly be useless compared to one of the ones that outright increases development growth. Before you researched urbanization, Cordoba had a -18.4 penalty. After you researched urbanization, Cordoba’s penalty remained -18.4.

  • @michelvanderlinden8363
    @michelvanderlinden8363 ปีที่แล้ว +123

    "Dirk Floriszoon" would be a ye-olde dutch name. Before Napoleon Bonaparte conquered the Netherlands, we typically had surnames based on who our parents were, and then added "son" or "daughter" after that. So say, Floris had a son named Dirk, then Dirk would have the surname "Floriszoon" (Floris + zoon, which means "son"). Bonaparte actually changed that system, having people come up with proper last names to better register the population.

    • @legostarwarsfan1662
      @legostarwarsfan1662 ปีที่แล้ว +24

      Jansen (basically Dutch for Johnson) is still one of the most common Dutch lastnames, though I don't doubt that such lastnames are far less ubiquitous as you pointed out. When Napoleon reorganized things most people just used the lastnames/nicknames they already had, I.e. de Jong, which means "the young" or "junior" or de vries which means "the frisian" not to mention the many names with the "van" or "Vander" suffix, meaning "of" or "of the" respectively. Though, as you pointed out people did stop changing said lastnames every generation. My intention is merely to clarify (in a probably completely unnecessary and definitely long-winded fashion) the original comment, which does itself make a very legitimate point.

    You forgot the religion of the canary Isles, it gives 15% dev in hills and they can build grand monuments that also give 30% dev from their culture. Norse get one ability that gives them 15% dev i forget what it's called. You should start Norse, invade canary hybridise, take Holy site in Spain, get the metropolitan benefit from iberian struggle for more dev and then you also get a small boost from rune stones I think but that might be something else.
    Oh and the gardens ability, being able to appoint a gardener really increases dev, I think 40%
    Then invade serdinia as the silver mine is in the hills and so is the rest of it so you get a big dev stack plus money and ideally connected for powerful but few knights and men at arms plays.
    Later you can hybridised with Germans for light cav, Indians for elephants and Mongols for horse archers.
