There is the Cocoliztli Epidemic, a Viral Hemorraghic fever which killed 15 million people. It caused a population collapse among the Aztec between 1545 and 1548 which basically wiped out most of the population. There is also a conjecture that a viral hemorraghic fever destroyed the Maya. The presence of quicklime, burning bodies, and pogroms as Europe collapses...

As a note, we might uncover artichoke leaves and dandelion root in the Aegean. These would be pretty basic herbalism, kind of pre- Greek medicine based on the idea of humors phlegm, blood, black and yellow bile. Also the four elements. This would not cure the plague but would provide a little relief for the liver and some more survivors. We have touched on Egyptian and Mesopotamian medicine, but not the more local priests or "witch-doctors" medicine. Religious mumbo jumbo on Delos where the temple of the sun, pre-apollo exists-- a little bit of music, the sun, and a bit of very early medicine. It would have been closer to what Penelope learned. It would require effort on our part to get it.

To make things interesting, the temple cooperates because they are dealing with Scholar Etana who has a reputation for lighting things on fire and destroying things.

well i think theres going to be a way to avoid the worse of it for a number of reasons.
1. it mentions the local geography as somewat sheltered. In the north landed there are the beginnings if mounains or hills, which are reasonable shelteres for a hurricane
2. In the very north you have the south as a substantial buffer
3.It might be a weak hurricane
4.it might ignore north america and just yeet to south america or mexico

'tis why I use the term "Yellow River State". She is the most generic moniker for the polity, well, along the Huang He.

Alright, I'll call you "The land of mineral wealth and cheap labor" then.

In EU4, a country is most likely to flip Revolutionary if it is 1) internally unstable, 2) a European great power, 3) deep in debt, 4) exhausted through war, and 5) highly autocratic. If it wasn't for that last requirement, what remains of the Commonwealth would still be a better fit than any of those Southern European polities.

Thinking along those lines, it's kind of interesting that we call the United States, well, the "United States". Nominally the name of the country is America. "United States" is its form of government.

I kind of copied off this in my own civilisation back when I was still active on IC, since - there being only one Commonwealth of significance in this RP - everyone knows which commonwealth you are referring to if you just say "the Commonwealth". Nominally the name of the country is Norðurland, but that's a hassle to type on an English keyboard, or the Northlands in English, but a more cacophonic name you'd be hard-pressed to find.

in across the world , the scandinavian tried their hand at colonisation in competition with icedonia, leading to their only colony ... vinland. But mostly they set up important strings of vassals and pupept republics along central africa and columbia. They managed to undermine icedonia in africa, with them only holding on the cape.

The imperium once at 1500 hundred rolled from novergoured to the balkans. But then all countries in europe went wait.... what. The northern countrys entered a coalition and struck the imperium to a minor power. But the government types and the tensions over the fate of hibernia, in which scandinavia wanted puppets in the west of france , and icedonia opting for a complete and utter annexation of hibernia split the triple allience. It only took a matter of time for the imperium war machine to get rolling, and ally and betray, ally and betray until it was a large size, dodging assults and coalition wars woth these makeshift alliences and betrayls.

The imperium got struck down bye icedonia in a fair fight, and lost all holland and most of france, before caving in to a autocratic dictatorship.

Well prc started of as a kingdom, but then flipped into a merchant republic, so i manually changed its name.

I'm curious about what settings you used. Did you set up proper custom ideas? Or just wing it with generic? Also did you set dev values to flat at game start? Did you fill in the gaps with npc nations? Or did you leave most of the world uncolonized?

See I did a newciv eu4 run a while back, and the results were VERY different. Probably down to the nature of eu4's AI.

Honestly what the AI chooses for their rivals right as the game starts in 1444 already shapes the game in a big way.

On that note, would anyone here be interested in EU4 multiplayer? Each of us to play a custom nation representing our new civs civilisation. :p

Curious about how likely it would be that someone might make speculum metal for telescopes or reflective mirrors. It is mainly copper and tin with arsenic or silver. Could you make reflective shields to concentrate sunlight.

Between you and me we have two players! We’re probably never going to get enough players to make a custom-nations-only game interesting, but playing our nations on a 1444 map could be fun. Or maybe we should see if we can tap some people over at the NationStates Paradox thread.

Be Norse religion to have access to Tyr’s +5% discipline. +10% discipline and +20% morale in the custom nation ideas, then take quality, offensive, defensive, then take innovative for the weapons quality policy. Hire a Commandant. Because Space Marines that’s why.

I actually did that in a custom nation single player game a while back. And I got Revolutionary Target that game too. 140% discipline and nearly 200% morale (and +20% inf/art combat ability) go brrrr. The AI’s armies melt before mine. It was a cool feeling. :p

Joohan, G-Tech, we need you guys to round out Europe north of the alps. :p
