In this video titled EU4 - What if Every Religion Was a Nation in 1444? we take a look at what would happen if every religion was a nation in 1444 / what if every religion was a nation at the start of EU4. In this video I made every single religion into one single nation, basically I gave every province that has a certain faith into one nation. This has been my most requested video by far so I hope you guys enjoy it. Some nations that are featured in this video include Byzantium, The Papal States, France, The Ottomans, Brandenburg, Sweden, England, Persia, Bharat, Siam, Japan and more! As you can probably guess this scenario resulted in some pretty funny shenanigans. Obviously you would expect that the nations with the richest faiths or highest developed provinces would dominate, but did it really turn out that way? This whole run was controlled by the AI only without my interference and it yielded some pretty interesting results to be honest. So, after watching this video you will know what would happen if every religion was a nation in 1444 in Europa Universalis 4. What is the next "What if" scenario that I should do?

I really would like to see a "what if every sub culture group was a nation"
What if modern country is a nation
how about, birth place of institution give +100 adm/dip/mil for 20 year?
maybe holy site in asia too?
What if every state was a country 😬
What if every Government was a nation.
Bohemia be like: "I've mastered the ability of standing so incredibly still... that I become invisible to the eye..." *Procedes to not lose any province for ~400 years*
Surprised me tbh
Nobody wants to be defenestrated(violently thrown out of the window) by Hussites.

The British: *O M E G A*
Ireland would like to speak to you about the Anglican faith
Scotland's Kirk ain't happy either.
Man, both Ireland and Scotland were b...tches of GB for long period of time so everything is fair
@@secretsecret1713 Scotland actually successfully fought off many English invasions and the times that they were conquered they eventually re-won their independence every time until finally Great Britain was created by THEIR King James the 6th of Scotland taking the English throne as James the 1st of a United Kingdom. But yeah England has always dominated the British isles just not as easily as one would think.
Neither Scotland or Ireland would exist if it wasn’t for England anyway, both y’all just handover everything to Europe without a single punch thrown
@@keyakaabag6017 get educated on a subject before spouting nonsense lmao, Ireland and Scotland existed before England
I think the issue with the Mandate of Heaven is that the Emperor of China can’t get many tributaries.
Yeah pretty much
They also would be hit with the unguarded nomadic frontier right at the start of the game.
Given Britains comparatively low dev start, that was impressive
Yeah they really took off in the late mid game
yeah, but they are so fking safe that it was just a matter of time until they got strong enough to torture some indigenous people
just saying, they have some history in doing that
Not really that impressive. Was one of the safest starts and they picked on the weakest nations (ai natives that probably lacked institutions and hadn't reformed inti yet).
Alright, I’ll be honest, started the video thinking “Well, the Ottomans are gonna steamroll everyone”.
Boy was I wrong!
Same lol
they were basically at war with every powerful country in the game 😂
The problem with the Ottomans is that they border basically everyone in the Old World so everyone has claims on them.
Lol, I wrote nearly the same comment just before seeing yours. The Ottomans looked really strong to me, especially because Europe was divided in the different branches of Christianity. I didn't thought Byzantium would last till the end, let alone becoming so strong.
How much op would the kingdom of God without the heretic variants...
@UCSRjWr3pAEaBvi0u6bdexTw yeah, I forgot about that video. It's seems that big empire never get the conqueror ruler and ai is pretty bad in managing it's economy
It be the roman empire before the vandals did their crap in africa
How much would Ortodox Byzantium be without "Heretic variants"?
@@majormarketing6552 Romans, before the split, were all pretty much Ortodox.
@@abhabh6896 larper lolz. Rather orthodox were catholic
Brandenburg: *exists*
Brandenburg’s neighbors: _it’s free real estate_
Then they got PUd lol
@@TheRedHawk they should have been prussia.. as you need to be reformed/protestant in order to form it.
Brandenburg *exists*
Byzantium: no
bharat had amazing borders at the end wow im suprised
Yeah they did really well
1742: France has revolution, GB colonizing and Japan going for manchuria. I guess someone tried to correct history, though timing is off for some of them.
Also bohemia doing nothing other than switch religion, sad.
I was expecting kingdom of god to get split between the other european nations and persia to be absorbed by the ottos, pretty interesting what happened xd
don't they have a huge bonus because they are the final catholic nation?
maybe the Califa would have been better
24:20 when the Ottomans are sus 😳
😳

Why is it, that Ming always collapses early for ya? For me, they collapse late or not at all, especially if I'm playing in that area.
I have the same but i don't have mandate of heaven
@@arkadiuszrenc1498 I have Mandate of Heaven.
Ming collapse because of Empire of China mechanic. It weaken nations.
Ming can't get any Tributaries so they get super bad maluses
@@gamerin123d6 yeah its so unfair
I love how persia use good alliances to survive and expand like this💚
Persia always does pretty well in these videos
They have op admin and military ideas
Persia with the power moves
What if every religion group was a nation
that would be every christian and muslim country vs the rest, too op
@@OmarSlloum Exactly that's what I want
Christian would be incredibly op, islam is almost completely uniform in the 1444 start date so the ottomans are kind of a sneak peak as to what would probably happen, but the kingdom of god was pretty op already, with all the broadly protestant, orthodox and norse counties they would kick ass hard
Someone declares war on Potiguara: Potiguara in South America that no one can besiege in the start: Laughs
They also can't defend their territory in the old world so the enemies just had to wait on ticking warscore. Easy win.
Colonizing all the provinces must've been a pain
@@TheRedHawk wow, hope you made a save file, so you never have to do that again
@@TheRedHawk cant you use mod for unlimited custom nation points and create the nations that way?
@@TheRedHawk i am pretty sure you could make a script to do that ( not that I know how THAT work)
8:37 not only is Potiguara Confucian, they have the original Ottoman (Osmanoglu) dynasty on the throne
I think the ottomans are sus.
Persia and Byzantium are such a cute couple 🥰
It does happen quite often in these videos lol
Why not give Prussia/Sweden territories protestant, Norway/Denmark norse, and the Dutch/Swiss reformed? I think it would be a bit more accurate for religion as France was pretty damn Catholic outside of the wars of religion
He probably thought it would make Catholic too OP to have France on top of everything else they already had.
The reformation gang wouldn't even be a challenge for the Catholic hyperpower, with the might of their fully aemed and operational counter-reformation
Catholic Morocco is pretty cursed not gonna lie
Why put centers of reformation? If you already divided them out? Why not just leave them catholic and let the reformation happen naturally?
Good question! They spawned by themselves after I created the nations!
@@TheRedHawk I see. Thank you for taking the time to clarify.
Sad to see you forgot about Sikhism. Was hoping to see them win hahaha

That was pretty cursed lmao
This channel is amazing. It is so underrated and I hope you get the recognition you clearly deserve. Keep up the good work these what if games are AWESOME
Thanks a ton! I appreciate the kind words it means a lot!
You are condemned to eternal suffering for portraying Ireland as anglican
Potiguara losing to Bharat, while being Confucian and having Osmanoglu as their dinasty is one of the most cursed thing I can possibly lie my eyes on
love how byzantium was basically on lifesupport by the kingdom of god
2:55 - Here we have a demonstration for why a Sunni One Faith is by far the easiest to do, just look at 3k+ dev with -2 conversion strength lol.
What if every formable existed at 1444?

That will be a lot of border gore

Ming representing the confusion religion and Dahomey representing the fetish religion. This is weird
A Norse Scandinavia in 1444 made me smile.
I liked your style, with the detailed periodic updates.
would be nice to see other formables get a chance as well, such as ilkhanate instead of persia or rum instead of otto, great video!
what if every tech group was a nation
Western power
European supremacy be like
- What if every production type was a nation in 1444?
- What if the Ottomans was a nation in 1444?
In most of my games, ming just sits idle and grows economically and militairily. On occasion they colonize and beyond that, they just sit there and do nothing. They don't explode into dozens of nations etc... I've seen so many timelapses etc. now and i've seen so many people comment on how ming always (or almost always) disintegrates... I wonder howcome this is not the case with me.
Do you not have the Mandate of Heaven DLC?
@@TheRedHawk i got it allright... :p
when you want them to explode they survive when youre on the other side of the world and couldnt give a shit they explode on the first reform
Well, for timelapses like this, there aren't enough nations, let alone small ones, around Ming to become tributaries. As such, they are essentially forced into collapsing.
In my successful “relentless push east” run both Ming AND timurids did not explode, thus giving me a lot of trouble with AE when expanding into uzbek and oirat
Can you do one where it's every state a nation?
Sure!
@@TheRedHawk good luck on filling some of the empty provinces
As a Catholic, I was wishing for a Papal Victor the whole game. I am glad it won, haha.
when you do these strange games; it would be nice if you also showed which trades routes are the biggest and how much; I love to see trade effects
watching this after a year and i can say your voice and vibe has changed a lot
ORTHODOX GERMANY
BOTTOM TEXT
Rip the small guys :(
Yazd/Zoroastrian did quite well though! They didn't expand at all, but survived for a surprisingly long time (As a Religion even until the end).
This would be better if every nation had the same ideas or atleast used the best idea set out of its religion. The way you did it compares only some random choosen idea sets.
“Huge shout out to Dahomey”
But there wasn't "reformed" at the time, France was Catholic, also officially
TLDW: The cold war starts 500 years early
See I was playing a Sambas into Lanfang campaign and obvi I was waiting for Yue to pop out from the event so I could form Lanfang but then Ming just refused to pop so I had to chain claims all the way from hecking Johor to Canton and beat a 70 mandate Ming just to FORM Lanfang.
Yet if I'm playing Tibet and WANT Ming protection from Delhi or Bengal ofc they explode and leave me defenseless.
Lol
Cool content my guy! Any chance you could start uploading the saves you use for these simulations alongside their respective videos? Might be fun jumping into the action

I like how Oirat went full TNO russia
I'd like to see tengri taboritsky
I understand that South America was their main power-base so it made sense to choose a south American nation, but the animists would've surely had way more of a real shot at winning if they started as a feudal old world animist nation.
as a person living in yazd this was unexpected 🤣🤣
In alternate universe people can't tell portugal from portiguara and are like" Yooo man look Poti already colonized europe, ahh no wait its that porgungal thing meh. "
>asks to tell me to put bets in comments
>Can skip to the end
A cool one would be to make a really weak worldwide empire and see who pops out and becomes top power
every video i expect Persia to lose but somehow they survive and expand and the opposite with the ottomans
Man, you did Protestantism dirty with the Norse Scandinavia.
I like your explaination. I have watched no voice EU4 videos and it was boring. Thank you.
You failed to mention that the Potiguara dynasty is Osmanoglu, at least by the time that they are Confucian.
What if the HRE was dismantled in 1444?
Great idea!
Poland, Denmark and France: “DAMN I’M HUNGRY”
@@Podzhagitel Burgundy, will be intresting too. Bohemia aswell.
I imagine a new powerhouse will form inside germany
About the Ottomans not taking Yazd, Oman and the other smaller countries, it isn't that surprising tbh. None of those countries are a real threat to them, so it'd be more imperative to focus on the enemies who are a real threat that the tiny lil enclaves. Pretty sure this is the reason many enclaves exist irl, like the two in South Africa.
Wow! That Bharat is so stronggg
Confucian Potiguara ruled by an Osmanoglu, only in EU4...
Mandate of heaven should be called mandate of hell, or mandate of rebels.
What if every trade good was a nation?
💀
Well, the Emperor + the Pope = Rome Lol
Next time dismantle Empire of China, becouse of that Ming and Oirat collapse.
I thought I saw France in the religion mapmode and was like "yeah, that makes sense"
0:43 you are going to Potiguara
Those Byzantines are noice
The ottomans are what I am like trying to play them. Managed to lose a war to the mamluks because they had more mil tech
I was curious for any institution that didn't spawned on Europe. Like, would the trade nodes of Bharat spwan global trade?
Hmm I didn’t chechk tbh
Hmm it’s not rly a fair since it’s not only about religion since “tags” like France are included. Did the same with only custom nations with same ideas and results were more fun :D and “fair”
Great video tho !
Ottomans decline because Anatolian tech troops have terrible pips starting in the age of absolutism
Yeah that contributed for sure!
England colonizes
France starts a revolution
I guess that's how the universe works.
What if every continent was a nation 😳
no mention of Bohemia going Catholic somewhere between 1490-1543?
Guess it slipped my mind lol
naturally, you gotta do a vid of the most cursed unions you can make out of the 1444 great powers (not with another great power and mods more than likely needed) for example, Austria and Ming
Sounds like a fun idea!
@@TheRedHawk of course by fun you mean insane amounts of masochism to attempt lol
@@TheRedHawk or better yet, give me a list of the GPs in 1444 and i'll tell you what religion to change them too
haida and papal states
I guess Norse faith will be represented by Nor... Sweden right :(
Lol
It's the better Norway
it would have been more fun if you force them to take religious ideas, for the CB and convert religion.
It could be a fun mod to play, some things like, every province without separatism get auto-send to the country that controls their religion.
Confucian potiguara with osmanoglu dynasty.
Cursed
A Confucian Osmanoglu ruling in Potiguara. Well, I didn't expect that.
I seriously thought this was going to just be Ottoman world conquest.
His voice is so different now
Hoping for a one faith catholic win 🤞
Turned out pretty good. Orthobros got back Jerusalem and North Africa recovered
Unofficial Catholic-Orthodox Alliance was pretty wholsome.
Not making Norway as a Norse representant... Oh god why
13:53 I can't get over the fact that the AI made borders like that
*why are they so cleeeeean aaaaa*
Why ist France reformed? The Kings of France were always catholic, the Catholicism was always the state religion in France. Switzerland or Prussia or Netherlands as reformed nation would be much more accurate.
Do you think it would have meaningfully affected brandenburgs performance if you gave them Danzig or Konigsburg so they could form prussia and get the ideas and government?
Probably not, AI Prussia is not very strong in my experience
@@TheRedHawk it might just be mao placement when these videos comes out they are sort of in between all the other major nations so they are more likely to be rivaled by many people
@@TheRedHawk Best AI tag I've seen in north Germany is munster, followed by hamburg when they come out of their city-state shell. BB AI just isn't aggressive enough and takes useless idea sets in my experience
You should cancel mandate of heaven next time, it's breaking every Eastern Asia country, and ming without tributary is always bad
Yeah I might do this
@@TheRedHawk cool video btw! Explaining timelapse is pretty fun and enjoyable, keep going !
I appreciate it!
Yes AI is completely braindead qhen it comes to Emperor of China, they take it too early and then can't expand or collapse. It's better to just destroy the title if you are playing Oirat/Yuan and as Qing you should still delay it.
I don't understand why EOC is not just disabled in these what ifs. AI does not know how to play with it.
Yeah I might disable it in the future
Portiguara had Osmanoglu at 8:40 so they must've been married and probably allied to the ottomans at some point
Yeah probably
Rewatching this and Red sounds so depressed here lol
Your channel is so underrated mate
Thanks I appreciate it!
