    In this video titled EU4 A to Z - They Said It's IMPOSSIBLE TO WIN As RAGUSA I play as Ragusa in Europa Universalis 4 1.37 Winds of Change. This is the series titled A to Z where I attempt to play every* nation in EU4 in alphabetical order. Of course I had to remove some nations so the challenge doesn't get too boring. In this video I play as the nation of Ragusa and I attempt to get he achievement With A Little Help where you need to guarantee The Ottomans and lead a trade league with 5 nations in it. So, let's see if I managed to do it! I hope you guys enjoy this series. If you enjoyed this video consider leaving a like and subscribing for more content in the future.

    The Rassids were a prominent Yemeni power who followed the Zaydi school of Islam. Zayd ibn Ali was considered to be the fifth Imam by some Shias and is most notable for his rebellion against the Umayyad Caliph Hisham ibn Abd al-Malik. So in order to commemorate this, you must own all the cores of Granada as your own or have them as a vassal, as they are the last vestiges of the Umayyad Caliphate.

    Note for Hawk: Never trust the description of an achievement for knowing what to do. Wordings are just too inconsistent. Always check the actual conditions, which, in this case, doesn't include being Ragusa.
    Also, the revolutionaries in Corfu are because it was a republic, fell to being a dictator because of low tradition, and revolutionaries came back to restore the republic.

    My recommendation for the achievement is don’t go annexing OPM in your trade nodes if you are playing a trade league game, as increasing the size of your trade league basically increases your money and force limit (playing mercenaries is doable) Edit: also create trade cities , like you can create one per trade node, plying tall while unifying Italy (your Italian culture after all) is the way to go. As the ridiculous dev is gonna make you unbeatable, also you should have waited until 1600 hundreds when they get too weak (if they are way too large the AI can’t handle the decadence, if they are not large enough they armies suck by then

    Have you ever thought about getting the BI as them? If you get strong enough independence support you can actually get released and ally them as soon as January 1445
    It involves a bit of savescumming the start, France cannot rival Burgundy, as they do switch the rivalry onto them almost immediately, this can give you up to 5 supporters and will threaten Burgundy enough to let you go
    After that you just conquer Utrecht, Gelre, Friesland and East Frisia and wait for BI to fire

    Alright, look guys, i got this achievement on my first run, here’s what you want to do as your opening moves:
    1. Focus on mil, send trade ships on the Genoa and Venice nodes to be able to invite Italian OPM’s into your trade league. Focus on the ones with trade centers and estuaries as this will make them give a piece of their trade to you, send merchants to collect, do the same with OPM's in the highest value nodes with your third merchant since you already collect on your home node by default. To invite them into the league the fastest way possible, get the diplo rep advisor and the religious diplomats privilege, then get a free company, or simply ally them first. I promise you, by doing this you’ll be able to afford 3 level 1 advisors right off the bat.
    2. Show Strength on Herzegovina, you'll need that power projection and those sweet power poin-oh nice bosnia just ate them up after you won the war, tech up so you can destroy both the Bosnians and the Serbs in one war, fully annex them.
    3. Now comes the fun part, you’re big enough and are now able to ally someone big, ally the rivals of the Ottomans, the ideal scenario is you having reached this point fast enough that you can ally the Mameluks too since this will force the Turdks to split their forces, don’t get too greedy if you can’t decisively beat them at first, piece by piece you'll weaken them, eventually they will pose no threat to you and you’ll be able to guarantee them and get the achievement.
