yes. I recommend Sicily, Spain, Turkey or France to start a campaign. Strategies are to unify the country and negotiate treaties with neighbors. Form alliances based on these treaties to dominate your region. Set up forts on resources and load them with merchants as well as a good garrison. Fortify all strongholds(cities and castles). Destroy all invaders. The campaign AI will respect you if you attack strongly and will sue for peace.
