South Germany region

The Central European regions are part of the Western Europe super-region. The area serves as a fertile ground where a different kind of battle takes place, one where lives and concessions are not decided by hard swords, but by soft-spoken words. The battle for diplomatic supremacy in the Imperial authority.png HRE politics have been ensuing for the past millennia; has the time come for the final victor to arise?

The would-be emperors who manage to enact all of the reforms can stand atop one of the richest and strongest nations in the world, which was once known at the peak of its glory as the Flag of Holy Roman Empire Holy Roman Empire. On their long journey those future emperors will find themselves clashing with rival nations who hold end goals of their own. Some would rather leave the image of the old empire in the dusts of the past where it belongs. Instead, they would rather carve the heart and core of the empire out; to transform and rebuild it into its modern-day counterpart, under the flag of the mighty Flag of Germany Germany.

Others, down in the southern parts of the old empire, would instead see the last of the chains shattered as the plot to sever their ties to the political entity finally comes to fruition. Now, free to forge their own destiny, they avert their eyes to the south - to the lands ruled (for now) by their Latin brethren. Relying on the newly arrived riches of the world at their ports, the forces are amassed little by little. Unbeknownst to them there are other forces at play. Those same Latin brethren also took note of the broken chains. Encouraged by the lack of imperial retaliation, plans are being made to grab the riches from their - once imperial - kin. Amongst them all are the men of clergy, servants of God on earth. Felling the power void they seek to fill it with highest authority of all, God himself. The time has come for his kingdom on earth to rise. Each faction, each member, stands ready to be the first to give the march orders and to crown themselves at the end as the rightful ruler of the region; but will it be under the secular banner of Flag of Italy Italy or under the sacred banner of Flag of The Papal State The Papal State?

Up in the north the descendants of the Vikings await. Although tamed with time their blood still longs for the glory that is only gained in battle; the golden hair now dirtied from mud and soaked red by blood. The lords of the white snow are build new foundations to strengthen the alliances and direct the people to the old southern empire. United outwards, but divided within. Each coveting to be the one among many, the first among firsts, ruler of the unified Flag of Scandinavia Scandinavia.

Amidst all of this, a religious turmoil sweeps the land. The Christian world is about to splinter yet again as the Reform desire.png desire for reform and change grows stronger. Once brothers sharing one set of beliefs, the nations are picking the splinter religion most serving their goals and in the process setting the stage for decades of religious strife and wars.

Which nations will become the core of the next empires? Which religion will come on top in the religious wars? Only the player and the coming centuries can tell.

The break-down of the Central European regions is as follows:

Government types

  • Government monarchy.png Feudal Monarchy is the dominant government type.
  • Government theocracy.png Theocracy government forms are much more widespread here than in other places (notable mention is the Papal State's Papacy).
  • Government republic.png Republics take the form of Free Cities in the HRE (these nations can only be OPMs) along with other forms in northern parts of Italy and Germany (Flag of Milan Milan also has the option to get the unique Ambrosian Republic).

Religions

  • Catholicism Catholic is the majority religion in these parts at the 1444 start (also, the province of Roma serves as the holy city for the catholic world).
  • Hussite The Hussite denomination is present in Bohemia.
  • As Reform desire.png reform desire reaches its peak in the Christian world, the Protestantism Protestant and Reformed.png Reformed denominations will start to spread across the continent (especially in the north).

Technology groups

  • All nations in these parts belong to the Western technology group Western technology group.

Culture groups

  • Nordic in the northern part.
  • Germanic and West Slavic in the central and eastern parts respectively.
  • Latin in the southern part.

In the following tables, countries whose culture is in bold are the primary country for that culture; they will never lose their cores on provinces of their culture.

Formable / Reformable nations[edit | edit source]

Some of these nations don't exist at the 1444 campaign start. They can appear if another nation chooses to form them.

Revolter nations[edit | edit source]

These nations don't exist and also lack cores at the 1444 campaign start. They can still appear if Separatist rebels.png Separatist rebels manage to take control of their cultural provinces. In (parentheses) are the dates they can be first played in, if possible.


Regional nations

Notes: These articles refer to the state of the world at the start of the grand-campaign (1444-11-11); meaning, if a nation is picked in other time points it may have different attributes. Table listings include: [1] 1444 starting nations, [2] 1444 releasable nations. Other tags, [3] later start/pure formables/revolters ("wild card" stats), are mentioned at the top. Worth noting, [4] a nation is assigned a home region based on its capital's location, [5] location names use the default localisation for consistency reasons (for searching in-game enter the provided province numbers). For a list of all available tags check the countries article.

Notes: These articles refer to the state of the world at the start of the grand-campaign (1444-11-11); meaning, if a nation is picked in other time points it may have different attributes. Table listings include: [1] 1444 starting nations, [2] 1444 releasable nations. Other tags, [3] later start/pure formables/revolters ("wild card" stats), are mentioned at the top. Worth noting, [4] a nation is assigned a home region based on its capital's location, [5] location names use the default localisation for consistency reasons (for searching in-game enter the provided province numbers). For a list of all available tags check the countries article.
