Wikipedia Description WIKIPEDIA

Players begin the game by choosing what date they would like to start their campaign and which country they would like to play as. Forms of government include various kingdoms, republics, theocracies, and tribal governments. Players can influence a nation's society and values by adjusting "sliders" such as free trade and mercantilism, and may hire court advisors such as Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. As the game advances, players can pick "national ideas" such as liberté, égalité, fraternité, which give specialized bonuses. The game has over 300 playable countries, including giants like Ming China, regional powers like Bohemia and Kazan, and smaller nations like the Maldives. There are no formal victory conditions in the game. The world map includes some 1,700 provinces and sea zones. Many provinces in the Americas, Africa, and Oceania are not owned by any country, allowing for colonization. Economics in the early modern era is simulated by taxes and production income from provinces, as well as trade. National merchants compete in "centers of trade" such as Venice and Lübeck, and nations focused on trading income (e.g., Holland) enjoy significant advantages. Nations which mint too much currency, or are over-reliant on gold mining, are penalized by inflation. Relations between countries can be impacted by diplomatic actions such as royal marriages, insults, alliances, and trade embargoes. Players are able to gain control over other countries peacefully through personal unions and vassalage. Early international institutions such as the Holy Roman Empire, the Papal Curia, and the Shogunate are simulated in some depth. Every country has its own culture and religion. Rulers have control over armies, navies, and mercenaries they recruit. Combat is abstract, with no direct control over battles. Military tradition is necessary for recruiting good generals and admirals. Aggression (seizing provinces without a rightful claim) impacts a country's international infamy. The game is historically detailed; one can play the "grand campaign" starting in 1453 or 1399, but any date before the French Revolution (1821 with the Napoleon's Ambition expansion) is a valid starting point as well, with historical leaders and countries appropriately updated. Major events such as the War of the League of Cambrai are playable this way. The game may be played single-player or multiplayer, with players controlling different countries; every non-human country is controlled by its own AI.
