[quote=@ArchadianEmpire] I'm fairly certain that Hungary enjoyed a measure of autonomy within the Austrian Empire at the time, couldn't he simply attempt to play the autonomous government of Hungary within the Empire and slowly make his attempt to break free? Although if there is going to be an Austrian player it could possibly turn them away. On another note I am wonder if certain world events will take place that happened historically. For instance, the Mexican War of Independence ends later in 1821 and was pretty much over by this time. Will that situation be resolved along with Peru/Brazil, etc? [/quote] It depends on the state of that event. If it's near the end and it looks like there's going to be a winner/loser, then I will add it. I might or might not make events like Peru/Brazil, etc. happened. What do you guys think of that? [quote=@Vahir] I assumed that we were starting in 1821 because that's when Napoleon died. End of an age, beginning of another, that sort of thing. Well, to take Willy's defense, if we want to change national details, we'll necessarily be changing history; Saying, for example, that the Austrian Empire is currently fielding the most elite army in Europe, or that Russian cities are the leading industrial centers of Europe, means changing stuff about the buildup to that situation. Granted, I agree that we should stick to the historical nations of the time period. [/quote] Fair enough. But, I am going to make such that each nation has a flaw in their details.
