I recently brought Eu4 because of my friends nagging but also because I heard that it was a amazing game despite a learning curve. But holy fuck I was not prepared, I thought I could figure it out along the way like I did with CK2 but NOPE I just ended with me being analy raped by all of my neighbours.

So fellow Monarchs do you have any tips/Strats to guide me and my country to glory? Can you help me stand the test of time?

Opps, never the the last bit, wrong game.

I've heard of this game.
Never played it myself, but apparently is just throws a ton at you to learn.
My suggestion would be to invest a few hours into just researching the game and learning how to play first.

Skim some pages on the wiki about concepts/basic things
From there, just try to figure it out as you go. I would suggest playing someone like france or castille - that way if you fuck up it isn't so serious because you're already really big.

Nah, France is.

It's one of those European nations that's too big too fail unless you're a glorious fuck up. After the tutorial it was the first nation I picked up and played.

Could never get on with France. Maybe it was just a subconscious desire to see Baguetteland fall to ruin, but whenever I play them I always play like a retard.
Now Ryukyu on the other hand...

Probably you. But France is one of the larger nations on the onset and is pretty thrown into a war they can't help but not loose. Or at least win and still have to punch out the rest after a few years. And their inheritance of half of Burgundy only makes France easier. Their only issue is the HRE which is easy enough to reconcile if you sit on your ass and wait for a tiny, powerless elector to become Emperor. Then you can rip them up for as much as you want, as long as you don't attack the elector directly.

Just play over and over again until you get it. Watching youtube videos also helps (Quill18 has a tutorial video)

Speaking of EU, the first version of the Guild had a color scheme I copied from Paradox Entertainment's forums: - Their forums in 2007: <https://web.archive.org/web/20070406173015/http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/> - The Guild in 2007: <https://web.archive.org/web/20070421113235/http://www.roleplayerguild.com/> As you can see, I got no better at coloring a website since then.

You plagiarist, you. To be fair though, the Paradox forums have always been a bit bare bones graphics-wise. A bit like their games in that regard. Still, OP should play Ryukyu. Just saying.

> It's Ulm or nothing. Ulm is like EU4's Jan Mayen. Or does EU4 have an even more joke country that I've somehow been ignorant to?

Forgive me for sounding like a broken record, but Ryukyu is even more retardedly difficult. Ulm is Catholic, has Western tech and is part of the HRE. Ryukyu aka Okinawa is Animist, Chinese tech and shares no borders with anyone, so the only way to start conquering is gloriously suicidal no-CB wars. Admittedly easier since Ming got balkanised. Fun though.
