I will play as the HRE. I wanna secure Catholic Dominance in Europe while safeguarding all these factions, I hate the Idea of the typical Conquer the hole world and make everyone YOUR FACTION! I wanna feel like I have a sense of purpose. Im a baptized Catholic but Im not religious at all, basically Im gonna be pretending that all the Protastant/Orthodox(Russia) factions are Absolute Monarchies who rule by fear and their people have a worse standard of living while all the Catholic Factions will be Benevolent Monarchies in their homelands.
Would these factions ever declare war on each other? I would find it VERY stupid to see Catholic factions fighting each other in the campaign, this never happened in history during the rise of Protestantism, there were only some minor conflicts with the HRE and some Italian city states.
Iberia
Spanish Empire
Kingdom of Portugal
Italy
Most Serene Republic of Venice
Papal States
Eastern Europe
Kingdom of Austria
Kingdom of Poland-Lithuania
To my knowledge, all these Factions are mostly Catholic. Do you guys think these Factions would ever declare war on each other? It would be really stupid if they did, historicaly all thhese Nations never had wars with each other 1500 and onward with the exceptoin of minor conflicts between the HRE and Italian city states.
These factions will be most concerned with fighting Protestant factions right?
They better be or else im not going to be playing this mod, I want a Catholic Alliance with no backstabbing, do you guys think its possible?
