I took over Germany without conquering a single province

Victoria 3 is a game that finally lets you dominate the world without needed to fire a shot - today we prove that correct as we play talll in Victoria 3. In this playthrough, we take the mantle of Lubeck, the smallest nation in the German power bloc. Today, however, we are going to climb up the rankings and steal control of the bloc right from under Prussia's nose...

[jarlerak]

now if you want an handful of a playthrough, the baltic russian puppet can also form germany.

[justkota.]

Ι love watching others going through the "just power through it" period of growing out their hair cause its always so uniquely bizarre.
I personally looked like a failed 70's pornstar.

[Gamereal]

I have a feeling Laith loves obscure little german nations, first Schaumburg-Lippe and now Lübeck. Not to mention they have literally no resources whatsoever. But its enjoyable to watch I gotta say. To add to this, being a great power as a city state in this time period sounds hilarious. Please continue this. 😄

Laith quote of the day: "To grow our economy we will import people" I heard no denial so...😉

[filipexavier]

13:18 Casual 8 year time skip where it went from 117th in the world, to 33rd... SHOW US!

[NegotiatorGladiarius]

Zollverein literally means "customs union", btw

[commissarkordoshky]

As Lubech, the major power in the Baltic now take over all trade in the baltic by taking Gotland and maybe the baltic nations? Scratch that itch for war! ;)

[LordSuluru]

Now do Malta, become the industrial capital of the British empire and have the highest state GDP of the entire British market.

[BenFromTheUpsideDownUnder]

'Hey Prussia, nice power bloc you got there. Shame if anything were to happen to it.' - Lübeck

[aleksanderpieck]

I feel like Laith’s hair has been evolving over the years.

[TrevorSmithy]

gotta love how revolutions are impossible with only one province

[XRakxXRaknasan]

I’m playing as Persia and got a GDP if 3 billion and I basically make everything so I can basically conquer land and no one can stop me XD

[Yrosk]

I wanted to form Germany as Baltic Governators but I couldn't since I have to pay my all money to Russians and I coudln't even start an economy, but maybe it's because I don't have DLC.
So I put that challange on you.

[GustavSvard]

28:57 the US took Ontario! And Canada is still around.
Idea for Journal Entry: if Canada is split into two (or more) parts without land connection from west to east (for over 5 years? 10?), have a thing that can lead to Canada falling apart, with the smaller bit (by land area, population, or by GDP?) going independent.

[kostyarikx]

The secondary production slider - is a great idea!)

[RubberToeYT]

I always enjoy playing as the smaller nations but infrastructure is my biggest hurdle, great video

[CalDoggyDaddu]

Not even a minute in and Laith is considering slavery 😂

[walnzell]

Since the war mechanics are downright broken, this is sort of a cool guide on how to have any fun in Vic III.

[gawkthimm]

ok Victorie 3 multiplay idea, everybody stars as a one province minor inside the former HRE. you can not ally each other and you can not declare wars against each other, but you can help your AI allies against Players

[Hadar]

17:07 Dude, you will still be producing dye, but less. There you can either produce only dyes or dyes + rayon. You cannot produce just rayon...

[thekorv]

Love this! feels nice to see Vic3 not being total CBT anymore
