Hey, I really appreciate that you took my Feedback and made the Thumbnails of the last two A-Z so they don´t have spoilers. Really great work as usual, keep it up and thanks for the effort you put into these.
This video made me decide to google Antemoro and turns out they have a pretty cool and interesting history and culture. They travelled all throughout madagascar to become the wise men and wizards of other peoples villages and royal courts, were renowned for their magic and writing, and many more things. Thanks for teaching me this, EU4 A-Z
1:34 "Where's Lesser Britain?" The Irish name for Wales is Breatain Bheag which means Little Britain or Small Britain which is basically the same as Lesser Britain.
@@eoghan-uk9yi The term Megale Brettania, which is Greek for Great Britain, was used by Ptolemy to distinguish it from Ireland (Mikra Brettania) and predates the settlement of Britons in Brittany.
Actually you couldve taken provinces from england if you had the isles or any other irish minor as a vassal when you vassalize you get their naval range there is a relentless push east speedrun as muscovy that uses this method aswell
1:34 well, you know, in french we call GB "Grande Bretagne" and "Bretagne" is the word we use to say Brittany. So i Guess Brittany is Lesser Britain, i mean, they have the same weather.
Didn't conquer a thing in GB neither became a pirate republic with horde ideas, I'm afraid this cannot be accepted as a completed challenge. A funny one, yes, but not completed
"They have these lame allies, I have a chad ally." "From the shadows of East Africa and Madagascar to the heart of the Industrial Revolution in Europe..." Oh, I loved this sooooo much 🤣😍 You were literally in war with all of Europe...
4:45 You could have just stolen maps endlessly to get all the way around to Britain while taking Naval-Maritime without needing Exploration. It would probably take longer but it would make much more sense if you were a pirate nation as well.
A small tribe from Madagascar building an empire in east Africa, becoming the head tribe of a continent-spanning colonizing pirate horde and unknowingly starting a war with all of Europe while attempting to raid and settle GB is pretty cool alt history to be honest
As a proud resident of Little Britain, I think you have failed your run solely to break your streak. Also we've been having a flock of new people to drive our trucks, not sure what's up. Ken ar c'hentañ 😀
Imagine living in the Larger Irish Isle during this and suddenly tens of thousands of Africans just show up out of fucking nowhere and occupy literally everything.
I N C O N C L U S I V E But wild and glorious, a tale of true piracy and desolation, of the southern raids returning to mind viking destruction, causing all of Europe and Morocco to rise in horror.
The region of Brittany in France was once call little Britain whereas the island was greater Britain the lesser bit what dropped for just being Brittany but the island retain its nomenclature of Great
I'd have called this a win - the only thing I might've done differently was peace out the nations on the island and force them to release as many vassals as possible; It was already cursed, might as well add more fuel to the fire!
Fun fact. Originally there were two Britain's. But that would get confusing so Rome I believe named the larger landmass Britaina major and the smaller one Britaina minor. As time progressed however Britaina minor changed to Britanny but the name for Britiana stayed ariundnmore and eventually became Great Britain. I fairly certain.
Make video about Normandy they have ideas like, viking raids 15% priverteer efficiency and ambition: may raidcoasts of every religion. Cool county decendents of vikings you can relise them as vassla from England to play it.
Maybe, it’s really a matter of circumstance though, since I welcome it when things go wrong in these videos, so I keep the failures. Of course I could have re-recorded previous campaigns in order to “win”
'Lesser Britain' was Atlantis. Kind of ironic naming along the lines of GREENland. Long story short, it didn't work out, and we don't like to talk about it.
after some deliberation, this is yet another Great Red Hawk Success (tm), albeit the most cursed one and why not go for the rise of the white sheep achievement as AQ
I don't get it why people understimate naval and maritime ideas and naval gameplay as a whole. Everyone who ever played multiplayer as England/Brunei/Spain/So knows that these ideas are crucial if one has a goal to rule the seas. Using privateers, blockades, sending marines to important enemy's provinces are the ways to destroy your foe's economy. They will never have prosperity in states and forget what a trade income is. And the policy with explore/naval is a key to defeating your naval rivals.
I'd call this a loss. Since you said Great Britain, the Isle of Mann doesn't matter. It's not a part of Great Britain (GB is the name of the main island). The change to occupying GB as oppose to owning it seems valid to me so no issue there. However, you did lose two provinces in South England (Kent and Sussex) before you finished Scotland so you didn't occupy all of GB at the same time. Close but no cigar. 'A' for effort though.
The game ALWAYS fucking knows. I just did Eat your greens. You know how the Ottos ally Aq in like 100% of games and therefore usually can't conquer Mesopotamia? Well in this ONE game out of hundreds they didn't and conquered Mesopotamia so in an already very hard achievement I had to fight Endboss Otto for one fucking single province and somehow win fast enough before a lot of very ... bothered people in Asia decided it's time for some punitive wars. Thankfully building an army so big i was losing 150 gold per month did the trick. And this is just the most recent example. The second you pick a nation, the game somehow determines what you are about to do and will do everything in it's power to fuck you as hard as possible, without exception.

Horde Coptic Armenian Anatolia
Perhaps too much of a long term goal for A to Z, but maybe since AQ is the White Sheep, you could go for becoming the lead producer of wool?
Horde Coptic Armenian Rûm, yes, this cursed.
Form Rûm, that's what I did! (Technically started as the Ottomans though, but I still formed it as Aq in the end :D )
Listen… I don’t think I can do it in 2 years Xarxos

Yep!
@Hobo Habsburg look at some of the older ones

isn't Brittany also called lesser Britain
@@germany7464 hmmmm
Little Britain?
@@germany7464 yes and that is why the name Great Britain was chosen in ordet to distinguish it from Britanny.
@@eoghan-uk9yi The term Megale Brettania, which is Greek for Great Britain, was used by Ptolemy to distinguish it from Ireland (Mikra Brettania) and predates the settlement of Britons in Brittany.
According to tradition, you should do very good in africa
Not wrong
With such a beautiful ending this can only be an inconclusive, a unique a glorious campaign. Also 3 naval ideas and for what? For what?!
I feel you
Actually you couldve taken provinces from england if you had the isles or any other irish minor as a vassal when you vassalize you get their naval range there is a relentless push east speedrun as muscovy that uses this method aswell
Little Britain is Britanny by the way. They changed the name so you can't notice it.
You learn something new every day
@Connor, the android sent by CyberLife bad? arguable. Problematic? How? I didn't see all the episodes but it seemed ok to me.
My god the original border ending is just perfect 😂🤣
Couldn’t have ended it better if I tried
1:34 well, you know, in french we call GB "Grande Bretagne" and "Bretagne" is the word we use to say Brittany.
So i Guess Brittany is Lesser Britain, i mean, they have the same weather.
Lesser Britain is just Ireland, at least according to the British.
Bruh
Perfect result! :) That does it, I'm WCing as Horde Antemoro now - with your pardon, I will wait until provinces are in coring range, however.
u can still do it by vassalizing an irish minor or scotland first then u can core english lands urself
You know, apart from the coalitions that were all of Europe combined, that went really smooth even with the accidental no-CB on England
Didn't conquer a thing in GB neither became a pirate republic with horde ideas, I'm afraid this cannot be accepted as a completed challenge. A funny one, yes, but not completed
Another Red Hawk Success™️ then
@@TheRedHawk at the very least your maintained ye olde traditions
This series is really fun to watch, keep it up!
Thanks!
AQ is the “white sheep” horde
white sheep
sheep
wool
take as many wool provinces as you can
that is your goal
I think this classifies as "failed with style"
I litteraly just did a Antemoro to Fidji to Andalousia campain, Madagascar can be very fun sometimes
"They have these lame allies, I have a chad ally."
"From the shadows of East Africa and Madagascar to the heart of the Industrial Revolution in Europe..."
Oh, I loved this sooooo much 🤣😍 You were literally in war with all of Europe...
I love the fact that Genghis Khan has a pirate hat in the thumbnail xD
I think that Cursed Britain you found qualifies as Lesser Britain.
Lmao
Britanny, the small bretons, Great Britain, the big bretons, there's your lesser britain
5Head
Brittany looked so sad when you were wondering where small Britain was
4:45 You could have just stolen maps endlessly to get all the way around to Britain while taking Naval-Maritime without needing Exploration. It would probably take longer but it would make much more sense if you were a pirate nation as well.
A small tribe from Madagascar building an empire in east Africa, becoming the head tribe of a continent-spanning colonizing pirate horde and unknowingly starting a war with all of Europe while attempting to raid and settle GB is pretty cool alt history to be honest
As a proud resident of Little Britain, I think you have failed your run solely to break your streak.
Also we've been having a flock of new people to drive our trucks, not sure what's up.
Ken ar c'hentañ 😀
There's a Paris in Texas so it's basically impossible to tell where London is with any certainty.
Not wrong
Any run that contains a GB that cursed is absolutely a win.
Denmark reforming the Danelaw
Loving this series! Puts focus on some less played nations and you’re doing really well explaining stuff as you go. Keep up the good work!
Glad you enjoy it!
In French ''Great Britain'' is ''Grande Bretagne'' so basically Great Brittany
So lesser Britain could just be Brittany (which is also my home!)
The circle of Antemoro... great succes I would say
Imagine living in the Larger Irish Isle during this and suddenly tens of thousands of Africans just show up out of fucking nowhere and occupy literally everything.
I N C O N C L U S I V E
But wild and glorious, a tale of true piracy and desolation, of the southern raids returning to mind viking destruction, causing all of Europe and Morocco to rise in horror.
I *could* have been a successful run if you'd first vassalized an Irish minor and used that to core adjacent provinces.
This may be the best EU4 video I’ve ever watched! Late comment but I say inconclusive.
As Aq Qonyunlu, conquer as many livestock provinces (considered as sheep) as possible :P
That ending was perfect, almost TOO perfect:)
"lesser Britain" is Britanny, the peninsula at the northwest of France that traditionally speaks a celtic language like Welsh.
My favorite eu4 series!
Thank you I appreciate the support!
"where's lesser britain?"
the irish "don't you fucking dare"
My man ain't even out of the As yet 😂
Pain
The region of Brittany in France was once call little Britain whereas the island was greater Britain the lesser bit what dropped for just being Brittany but the island retain its nomenclature of Great
I think, it was a success. Good job.
I'd have called this a win - the only thing I might've done differently was peace out the nations on the island and force them to release as many vassals as possible; It was already cursed, might as well add more fuel to the fire!
The magnificent rise and fall of an empire
Fun fact. Originally there were two Britain's. But that would get confusing so Rome I believe named the larger landmass Britaina major and the smaller one Britaina minor. As time progressed however Britaina minor changed to Britanny but the name for Britiana stayed ariundnmore and eventually became Great Britain. I fairly certain.
I've never seen Britain like that before.
Make video about Normandy they have ideas like, viking raids 15% priverteer efficiency and ambition: may raidcoasts of every religion. Cool county decendents of vikings you can relise them as vassla from England to play it.
I think he explained how he decided his countries, also if he's doing A to Z I'm affraid we're not going to see Normandy before a pack of months lmao
"Lesser Britain" is actually Brittany it was sometimes call little Britain
Lesser Brittan is Britiny, the peninsula off the coast of France, it's name is even a combination of brit and tiny
Do you think that you getting more and more successful campaigns means that playing with harder nations is making you better at the game?
Maybe, it’s really a matter of circumstance though, since I welcome it when things go wrong in these videos, so I keep the failures. Of course I could have re-recorded previous campaigns in order to “win”
The game knows what you're gonna do. I agree 100%. Its weird man.
Reach the Safavids borders historically with AQ
'Lesser Britain' was Atlantis. Kind of ironic naming along the lines of GREENland.
Long story short, it didn't work out, and we don't like to talk about it.
As Aq Qoyunlu I suggest you should restore the Seljukid Empire by forming Rum and annexing Qara Qoyunlu
Red did you know that Madagascar was colonizer by Africa and India at the same time?
Oh really?
and if im remembering it right the indians reached the island before the africans
1:34 well Lesser Britain is just... under Great Britain xD in France, called Brittany (it's actually the true etymology)
Denmark: we back bitches
Actually, Great britain is a single iland, so the iland of Mann doesnt count. Thus, you won. But it is still debatable becuase you changed the goal
I also played in Madagascar and the same thing happened but it was only two as I had already conquered the rest
Yo, you’re gonna hit 40k soon
Edit: Also remember me when you get famous
yOU DO AN AMAZING JOB, big fan
Gotta get that algorithm going
Hell yeah
Can't wait for Austria! Even tho a guide would prob be better, maybe a crossover
hilarious! Thanks for the amusement.
You should have forced Scotland to become your vassal and then given them all of great Britain
Ok, I'll settle this debate now, London is actually in the fabled state of Ohio.
I don't care about you conquer britain or not. Pirate horde is more cursed than this already. :D
LOVED THIS
Fun fact if you didn't know where lesser brittian is
ITS BRITTANY BIT you know the line.
just like the vikings 1000 years ago
Pirate horde becouse in the Madagascar area can appear Libertatia?
lesser brittain is ireland, but don't tell them they'll get mad.
Loving the humour.
Thanks!
after some deliberation, this is yet another Great Red Hawk Success (tm), albeit the most cursed one
and why not go for the rise of the white sheep achievement as AQ
Are you going to NoCB Ming one of these days?
Soon
I know it was a joke but lesser Britain is actually Bretagne in France
thanks for leaving my home islands out of it (shetland)
ah yes, the Eldian Empire
Some will say that this was a success. Some others will say it was a failure. People talk, people say but i believe that this was obviously a ...
A Red Hawk Success™️
As another island nation conguer all island in the world XD
bro you could’ve just force vassalized like Scotland lol… didn’t have to declare war on all of europe
Yes but this was funnier
@@TheRedHawk fair enough
You should definately have an A-Z end up in texas
I guess I would Have vassalized mann or somthing and give them some land as a staging area idk.
why didnt you disinherit that crappy heir? :o
Whats your map graphic mod?
Graphical Map Improvements
man I think you should have vassalised scotland so you could actually do this
That wouldn’t be funny though
ISP in Eu4?!?!
😳😳😳
For AQ, convert every Turkish and Iranian province to Kurdish
As AQ have a colonial nations named AqD2 and Bbq
Epoc ending
Ebic
it was close but it is still a fail
Only more cursed GB is current rl GB 😂😭
Isn’t Brittany (in France) considered “lesser Britain”?
u also could have caleld it " Pirate vs Pirate "
