You play at such a high speed that sometimes you'll miss small stuff. I think the reason why you lost some of those battles at the end was because your armies didn't have commanders. The previous leader died and you didn't fill the spot, which makes your armies basically paper mache

Slavery wouldn't have happened, or it would have happened in a much smaller size than it did, because tribes would have worked together to repell the invaders and not tried to enslave their rivals and made money off it Also, having the ability to collect resources and riches with that size, could have resulted in a country similar to India. It's very romantic and nice to think how that could have happened. An african empire of that magnitude would be beautiful.

Uniting Africa is pretty time consuming, but it's not actually as tough as it looks thanks to the gold mines and lots of your opponents being pretty weak. Taking over Tibet starting as a count felt much more miserable, despite the smaller land area; the lack of income really makes it feel like your never getting anywhere.

@lacintag5482 Жыл бұрын

"Alkebulan" isn't the original name of Africa. It means "Land of the Blacks" in Arabic. The idea of it being "the original name" is a pseudohistorical concept invented by various African American groups in the US. There was never a name for the entire continent, indigenous or otherwise, until "Africa" (originally the name of a Roman province whose origins are unknown).

@ridha_ 10 ай бұрын

for later playthorughs: when you educate your childs and you want them to be a good steward, the guardian needs to have primary good stewardship and only secondary good learning. there are many factors, but if you have a genius educator and he has only maybe 5 stewardship then the child wont get a good education.
