  • So in todays episode of Victoria 2 A to Z, I took on one of the game’s biggest challenges: China. We slowly became a world power after many years, and eventually we began destroying all the colonizers. Thank you all so much for watching my content! You are amazing!

    Nothing is funnier than the Qing finally composing a national anthem in 1911, only to fall the next year in 1912.

    It's actually beneficial to side with the Heavenly Kingdom rather than the Qing. HK gets rid of the woman shortage debuff and gives access to pro military/jingoist policies early.
    Also, it has South Han and North Han as accepted cultures, meaning you have less unrest and more people to draw on for guards.

    Beating Japan to take Korea is easy actually and you can definitely do it after westernizing, the only thing you need is ships, a 5 ironclad/ just many torpedo boats, since as early as you westernize Japan didn't built any navy themselves, and you can definitely beat them early also but its a cheesy one, south of Korea theres a tiny island that you can cross Tsushima, there setup 60 brigades and let the japanese come to you because its an island and the japanese need to cross you'd realize its easy for the island to become a meat grinder
