also forgot to mention we started in Babylon at 32 as that's where he died!
Don't want to be that guy but its Argead not Argaed not a big deal that its wrong but you should know that to avoid awkward scenarios in future.
Long form videos? I'm all her for it
Ah ok
Why Babylon? Should have been somewhere north of Greece
People forget the amount of stuff Philip II changed etc, which also allowed Alexander to be so effective.
Greatest Father & Son double act
No one asked, yes he was a great king but this is a video about a game not a debate or documentary
Not to mention the friends of his father: the great generals and commanders
@@WorldHistory515 People when you talk about history in a historical game:
@@lurkenvoncurken518 yes?
"Alexander the Great was one of the best conquerers in history"
One infected mosquito:
Mosquitoes should have taken control of Macedonia smh
@@SnapStrategy Maybe make a part 2 btw a suggestion,maybe if you do those short of claimants of ''reincarnations'' of historical figures you could rename the cities before and later for make it way cooler!
It could've been a mosquito. Yet I have always felt it was more likely an assisination of sorts.
@@Sand-Walker13 I’m certain it was, there was *allot* of envious people and enemies of Alexander
@@etholus1000 Agreed man, Alexander was fascinated by Persian culture, surrounded himself with Persian advisors and his next conquest was Arabia. So this all wouldn't make his Greek counterparts very unhappy.
alexander conquered a lot more than just iran, he owned most of central asia which isn’t just desert and crossed the indus into india, meaning you are missing all of Afghanistan and most of pakistan in addition to everything missing in persia, egypt and the levant.
Seems like he missed Greece. Why start in Babylon
@@MastemaJack Yeah why not start in Macedonia lol? You know the place he originated from.
@@Maltesfilm babylonia is the place he died lol
@@tkmangt5826 But he didn’t start the campaign at the end of his life and just continue it. He started it from before he even made it to Babylonia.
@@Maltesfilm Ah Yes My Favorite Speedrun :FASTEST EMPIRE BUT THIS TIME I HAVE 1 MONTH!

Also in the next few weeks I will be experimenting a lot with different content styles on the channel! Still CK3, but think its always good to try and improve and learn new things! :)
CK3 creators never complete their goals lmao. I need you guys to start adding in time lapses of you finishing the goal at the end.
The video will be “reclaiming Britannia!”, you finish England and say “we’ve basically done it, no one can beat us anyway” and end the video 😭 PAINT. THE. MAP.
Exactly lmao
I stg my dude damn I wanna see this place conquered
I swear. Like the Irish get OP alliances sometimes. I once had a run where I was in Wales and Ireland had Connacht get an alliance to West Francia and Sweden and they just decided to start bossing everyone if I said "I have Wales and England no one is going to beat me" then I would have missed out on epic battles against Connacht
Laith.
This drives me crazy, it’s so unsatisfying
Can’t wait for SnapSnap!!!!
Thankyou! I did a poll last night and seems the first thing we are going to be doing is starting as the last Karling! so im just going to work on a big mod list for it now
Would like an update on your mod list, please.
Is there content on Snap Snap soon?
@@SnapStrategyAny progress with Snap Snap? I would love to see some content! :D
You'd think he'd start in greece
Babylon was more in the county of Batiha (which IS close to Baghdad but it's separated by 1 whole CK3 county) in my opinion.
Why not start in Greece? Where he was from and also you don’t have to worry about being a different culture
Honestly man your the best I always look forward to watching your videos
Thats very kind of you! thankyou! :)
Can't wait to see your let's plays on the new channel
Let’s gooooo! Thanks for makin this video man much appreciated
Almost at 50 k bro. Keep up the good work! Remember when you only had like 3k lol
Babylon was east of Karbala on the old course of the Euphrates. Alexander's successor Seleucus moved his capital north east onto the Tigris near modern day Mada'in. After the Abbasids overran the Umayyads they wanted a capital further east than Damascus that was closer to their power base, so they built a new planned city (Bagdad) just north of Mada'in.
You should have at least took Alexandria
Ohh yeah .. more historical runs ... I luv dis
He was so powerful, that he just run away when he discovered about the romans.....
You can invite claimants to kingdom titles, and get the whole kingdom immediately
Why didnt you start in makedonia or atleast an area in greece?
The capital of the empire was babylon. Plus, Alexander wanted to merge Greek and Persian cultures.
I love ur channel bro excited to watch the 2nd
14:40 Gotta admit, the new emperor of the Byzantine Empire just looks so cute. So adorable like a Kewpie doll.
Cool video!
Wasn’t Alexander a commander at like age 16? Also, he took over so many cities he eventually just started calling them all Alexander… alexander by the hill, alexander by the sea…
and became king of MACEDONIA at 19
Yeah but his dad was incredibly powerful and a great warmonger too, so it's no more unusual than Henry V leading armies as a young lad.
Yes. He commanded his first army at 16. Phillip was down south fighting a Greek coalition. After he defeated the enemy army and sacked the city he renamed it Alexandropolis.
Kinda want to see a time lapse of what happens after you end this game, just to see where Hellenism and the Argeads go!
I literally searched exactly this videos premise yesterday!
Alexander was from macedon
Alexander died in babylon, and he is reborn there in this video
@@mapoleo btw Baghdad it’s not even near babylon in fact it is the left river more south
They are 53 miles away from each other what are you talking about?@@martinrosenberger
@@Winterfellen that is like two counties south
Alexander of Babylon? You spelled Macedon wrong
Thanks for playing alexander and showing the Macedonian history.
8:19 The way he said Byzantine Empire 💀
Americans and Brits say it differently. There is no "correct" way.
@@bradleymanson6757 of course there is. Vizantine, the original greek spelling
@@alexwhite3830 That is the spelling. How can we know how to pronounce a word from a dead language? We can only assume.
@@bradleymanson6757 Oh come on, the historical names are the same in modern Greek. Sometimes maybe differ, but such things as Babylon, Byzantium etc starts with V in Greek
@@bradleymanson6757 dead language? You know that your language is 80% greek?
A playtrough when you reform a religion with pharaohs and take egypt would be fun
Seljuks are easy to beat
just assassinate two rulers and it will explode
Tbh considering his lifestyle, Alexander lived a long life
Yeah, being in all kinds of foreign places bring all sorts of strange diseases. It's strange that almost all of the conquerors like Alexander almost always die young and rule short.
Done support your second channel from malaysia 🇲🇾 cannot wait for longer video from that channel 👍
woah this is like my dream conquest haha, one of my favorite historical figures. LOVE your channel brotha
"somehow aleksandyr returned"
Should gave started in macedon not babylon
the fact that you killed the Emperor, declared war on his kid, and the child just said "Yeah nah. you can have it all." is fucking WILD. EZ claps.
bro said byezantyne
You got everything in the second Duchy war in Mesopotamia because the guy only had one Duchy title which comes with all of his vassals. There is a definitely a argument to be had that non de jure vassals should become independent instead.
You should try to do it the same number of years as Alexander did
8
Hey fella swell diss but now you got the pan Hellenist from Pella hella pissed
You need to redo this video, and acutally take all of Alexander's Empire. You didn't take all of Egypt, all of Iran, Pakistan, and Western India.
You should do elder kings and go from a lowly count, to emperor of all Tamriel
You can go for the entire enemy kingdom if you abduct an heir and force him to join you. Saves a lot of boring duchy wars👍
why didn't you start in macedonia?
Why does he starts in babylon, he is from greece
what is the mod of maa art?
Wich mod is it that allows you to filter marriage ?
Wars just suddenly ending because someone died is the dumbest shit ever.
9:30 5 speed at war, blunder incoming
Edit: oh it wasnt, just why you keep moving one tile at a time when retreating
Lore of Attempting to Reclaim Alexander the Greats Empire momentum 100
Alexander had a lot more land in Egypt, as well as much more land to the East. But great video as always!
as a persian i watched this like : nooo noo damn you demon 😡🤬 (just kidding love your vids😂😂 )
I think if you posted shorts on tiktok about your CZcams videos they would blow up and get super popular.
15:01 what the hell is that france
Did Hellenism spread outside your empire? With all the daughters married off, plus the prestige of being emperor, I assume some places must have embraced the faith.
I can’t really be sure of anything since it’s technically possible, but it is highly unlikely for that to happen. Once they are married off and are in their husbands court they are usually demanded to convert to their husbands religion and the wife usually can’t do much about it
Question: why did you start in Babylon?
how did he make the sultan name yellow like what mod
So what happened to the other channel? I see no content.
Can we get a mali empire mansa musa early playthrough?
Bro, i think the reason the empress accepted your demands was because she's 1 year old.
Thats just me tho
Hello 😎
Have the updated the visuals or is Snap using a mod? The coat of arms for realms on the map look different. Look better imo. Mesopotamia is my favorite kingdom to form in this area. But I’ve never created a custom ruler there
Ah, An Alexander Campaign! I can't wait to- *Sees Argaed instead of Argead*
Literally unplayable typo 0/10.
In all seriousness, this is awesome. Now finish up Egypt and cross the Indus.
Alexander did in 3 years what the Romans/Byzantines couldn't do in over 2000: conquer the Persians 🤭
hey snap, i was curious as to what your specs are, my pc is i feel above average but yet runs extremely slow even at 5 speed. Even at earlier start dates so its frustrating when playing long playthrough's because of how slow it is. I have an i5-11400f with an rtx 3060 16gb ram with ck3 being on an ssd. (And im not using any mods)
I mean I've got literally the exact same specs as you but mine runs fine
Probably just your Internet
@@samdavison286 i dont think internet has any effect on how fast the game runs, and when you say fine do you mean like playable or really fast.
Like it runs at a good frame rate
@@samdavison286 nah my framerate is not an issue its the speed of the game, like the time yknow.
Is Alexander actually in the game as a dead character like Caesar or did you just make up a character that you thought resembled him
Im not sure! yeah i just made a custom character haha
I think it only goes up to 0 AD and not before
@@SnapStrategy why did you start him in Babylon tho? Wasn’t he Macedonian?
Could you play as infanta urraca?
Argaed or Argead?
Alexander's night mare (Tha Afghan tribes of Bectria)
Bro wants to be Gilgamesh so bad 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️
💪💪💪🐴🐴🐴🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎 mégas alexándros
Hetero? Brown hair? Snap is a fake Alexander fan! (All in good fun, great video, mate)
Waltuh
can you try to play as messalians? they are wired christian sect that have full equal rights and insest
no one played as them on youtube
hey snap i really don't like the subtle camera shake thing you were doing with the zoom. i have an inner ear disorder and its starting to trigger my vertigo. i'd like to keep watching your videos if possible
time to redo the video. New update has a real Macedonian culture
not in ck3 so probably a mod. ggs man of course. it's called al-qadir
About were babylon should be 💀💀💀💀💀
Can name the mods?
Alexander didn’t build an empire he conquered one 90% of Alexander’s land was the land he took from Persian empire
Come on man not as Bactria?
You should work on your pronunciation of historical names, if you're making content on Crusader Kings 3. Also, Babylon is in the game, it's in county of Kufa, holding of al-Hila. . .
Why didn't you reform your faith?
Yeah not good bro. Should have done it until the end, you left it half done. Ze faq
So this is what I don't get: Alexandros II rose to power at the age of 58 (14:22), but when he died, at the age of 70 (16:22), the game says it was a 5 year reign. Shouldn't it be a 12 year reign?
It’s a big, I’ve had it happen a few times
Its beacause he only ruled for five years in his now main title
@@dbriner-jo5tv oh there was a title change in between? I didn't noticed, my bad
Why not start in actual Mesopotamia ? ^^
You're missing way too much land, you lost a battle (Alexander never did, despite what coping currybros might tell you), and you didn't speedrun conquests with great generals. In what way is this an Alexander run?
Alexander did lose a battle! He lost to Tuberculosis.
why not starting in macedon where alexander was actually born?
Only about 1300 years from when he actually lived
Why didn’t you start as Macedonia ?
first
3rd
he was gay
Didn't he have like 2 wives
@@dred0 yes maybe. But that's for the sole purpose of producing offspring. If you watch more and more documentaries and do some research he was presumed gay with his right hand man. I'm not sure when or where but I remember at some point they crossed the ocean and Alexander built a monument that was supposed to be for your wife but he built it in the name of his right hand man. There is no proof for anything but the evidence presuming he is gay is vast. I'm not good at explaining so look into it. You'll find what you seek.
No he was bi
HEY. I sent you 10 dollars for your incredible content. Did you not see MY MONEY SENT TO YOU? I need a reply. this is unacceptalbe. This is the first time I've EVER give money to a streamer.
Alexander wasnt great at all
Bro I'm ngl this sucked my brudda you started in mesopotamia than Greece which would've been alot better... also you didn't even create your own empire which would've been more unique instead of just stealing byzantium. Honestly I watched this video when I first started ck3 and now watching it made me realise how bad you are my days
It was a pretty decent video but it's also disrespectful to call Alexander from Babylon and not from Macedonia. I hope you realize that
I mean in the end he was more a Babylon dude than macedonian. He even started asking his childhood friends and great generals to do proskynesis before talking to him
@@alexwhite3830 not really. He adapted many things but he was never Persian
@@ofresh24 If you act as Persian, dress like Persian and talk like Persian probably you're Persian?
@@alexwhite3830 saying that acting like a persian makes you persian is like saying keanu reeves is john wick
Spells argead wrong, starts in Babylon and not Macedon, doesn't even take alexandria, doesn't create Macedon...... :( You need to go play imperator sir.
