The 1st COMPLETE EU5 MAP of the WORLD is HERE & Religions EXPLAINED 

Until EU5 arrives, check out my Holland run where we play mega tall in 1.37 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AehlfbJ6_Y4.html

Ludi: You may want to build this in every province. New resource system: Nope.

Strigolnichestvo is a religious sect that appeared in Russia mid 14th centuries and disappeared before 15th century. They thought the Orthodox priesthood was illegitimate. They appeared in Pskov and spread into Novgorod and Tver, if I remember correctly.

Inti having unique mechanics from launch is such a huge awesome sign. It means that there's actually going to be flavor in the game on launch if such an obscure religion has mechanics. The game just won't be completely barren like a certain other recently released game with no flavor

Coptic might be renamed, but they can never take away my glorious Coptic Ethiopia away from me

16:32 At 1337 Korea was still being ruled by the Goryeo dynasty, Joseon wouldn't be founded until 1392. Also, 'Joseon' is pronounced 'Choson' or 'Joson', not 'Jo-sion'. It's why the Korean achievement in eu4 is called 'the Choson One'. When you come across these weird 'eo's or 'eu's in Korean words, just ignore the 'e' and pronounce them as 'o' and 'u'. It's a result of our stupid romanization system which makes it impossible for foreigners to read our words.

I like dice in battles. Adding some randomness it’s a good thing and takes away the monotony of stacking modifiers

Actually i assume bosnia's religion will be "kristjani" and the pink thing is Bogomilism judging off ck3

Quickly going to share my thoughts on North America religions: Green is definitely Midew/Algonquin Gold/Honey is something Iroquoian, I've seen their religious traditions referred to as broadly a "Cult of the Three Sisters" but I'm sure they have a better name Navy Blue seems to be something of the Stomp Dancer tradition (the fact Illinois isn't Midew also seems to confirm Cahokia!!! will exist at game start in my eyes since this would be before any Illiniwek migration there), perhaps they'll just name it "Muskagean" Yellow is obviously the indigenous plains beliefs that I have seen referred to as "Plains Way" but they might again name it something more appropriate (or just "Siouan" or some other ethnoreligious term) Blue-Purple is definitely Dené Purple-Maroon is probably Totemist proper The amount of religions in northern Canada, like in 1 province, is kind of surprising to me? I imagine 1 is something Inuit and the rest might actually just be like OPMs where they test religious mechanics that aren't actually mapped out accurately yet. Just a hunch. Overall I think it's looking very good, excited to see how it develops.

The great lakes in North America has tiles.

It's paradox so i'm sure they will give ottomans a way to convert every single person in anatolia to be turkish sunni by 1340.

You know, if the game launch is still far away, maybe it's a good thing that they stick to `tinto talks` and `project Caesar` for now, to keep everyone but those deeply invested unaware and thus not breathing down their neck. Too many big games these days launch too soon because of too much hype-created pressure to not push it back. If the EU5 devs manages to avoid that trap and enroll the community for over a year to polish up their game without triggering media waves, THEN announce it as EU5 and release it like a month after that, so that it both meets expectations AND drops after a massive but short hype campaign, ngl that'd be pretty f-ing genius if they can pull it off....

Beautiful analysis Ludi! I'm very pleasantly surprised by your knowledge of Hinduism in SEA, and Jainism in Western India. Mahayana in Sindh (Western India) was a surprise to me too. And yes, it is Islam in the Maldives. You're also correct about the small patches of Zoroastrians in Iran. In any case, I'm so hyped for EU5!

I think that might be Judiasm in Bohemia

I actually like the dice system, as it take into account the factors that couldn't be predicted or you couldn't prepare for and the skills of the generals were reflecting his ability to adapt.

22:15 Ludi building Las Vegas in the middle of the Sahara as soon as EU5 is released

14:19 I think the lavender in Bosnia is meant krsjani because that is where that religion is I. Ck3 and almost the same color too, if I had guess the pink that confused you could be bolgomsm as it’s in both Bosnia and Bulgaria which would make sense

I really like it that the caspian sea is navigable in eu5

This game might be a better medieva game than CK3 which is super sad. But a good thing, I actually have quite a lot of _faith_ in EU5 so far. Still cautiously optimistic. But optimistic non the less.

I wish they added a zeal mechanics for the religions from fanaticism all the way to atheism. It would be really cool to slowly change your country to a fanatic horde or straight up an atheistic state, with all downsides and benefits of it.

Did anyone else notice that the Caspian Sea has sea tiles? Finally we should be able to put boats there.

I was thinking "man gets overly excited by colors on a map" was a good tagline for the video, but that might just be the whole channel

The religion in east Anaolia should be Apostolic, Armenians have their own church, the Armenian Apostolic church. The fact that EU4 has it as Coptic was just lazy.

dharmic would be buddhism too while eastern would be mostly the religions in china ,japan etc

Some proper historical documents would be nice but from what Ive seen Buddhism in Sindh was essentially gone by this and time subjected to small locals in the area. 18:26

The sea tiles are so much smaller. Moving navies around and seiging coasts will be something

I love how almost all the Philippine Islands is Animist aside from that one little Mahayana spot on the shores between Manila Bay and Laguna Lake, which I assume is either Tondo or Namayan.

smagati damn bro, that was so fun to watch, I would be really enjoined if you do some stream-chanski or 10 hrs video of how you staring at those maps and telling your thoughts about it

That blue bohemian thing might be conciliarism, because the bohemian reformation started in the 14th century, and Jan Hus pretty much expanded on it. Prague was a very important city in every aspect, including clergy and especially theology (one of the first subjects taught on the Charles University), and the call for reformation emerged quite early there (talking 1370s)... among them were also the ideals of conciliarism... Either it's this or idk

Hey Ludi, Love your vids, i watch every one. Little Histrory note 16:34 It is not Joseon yet King Taejo overthew Goryeo in 1392 and changed the name from Goryeo to Joseon in 1393

Why is southeast brazil considered as impassable? Those lands are easily liveable

Looking at the tiles you can also tell that Caspian Sea will be a little bit more important than it is in EU4. Maybe we will be able to build Caspian Sea fleet LOL

As a pastor, I'm cracking up that they have "Calvinists won't re-roll dice because everything is pre-ordained." Bruh. Points to whoever came up with that. Hilarious and genius. Also, I'm happy to see there will be dice :) I prefer EU4's combat system over any other Paradox game so far. Unless they somehow innovate it! Which I'd be fine with too!

13:09 I might be wrong but there might norse religion in canada since there are a bit of grey parts . or just some other type of totemism .

I wonder how they are going to balance the natives of the new world because in EU4 they can get pretty annoying even within 50 years, now imagine them having 150 years. IRL a lot of the times Europeans would just settle an area enough and that forced the natives to move, often times forcefully assimilate or they (Europeans) would fight the Natives and nothing really would happen so in game that means not a lot of AE actually happened IRL. They just didn't have the population to fight back due to diseases like small pox and weren't a unified people to care enough that their neighboring tribe got wiped out or close to wiped out. A lot of the times, they even helped the Europeans to wipe out their neighbors. And then as a player you need to be able to have the ability to fight back somehow while also not being able to unite both North and South America even before the Europeans arrive in the mid to late 1400's for basically free.

8:10 is it just me or does their description of what Christianity is sound very Protestant?

I'm still baffled at how EU4 has Anatolia as Muslim despite the Greeks being the majority in the coastline even until the early 20th century 😂

The Caspian Sea has Sea provinces! we're going to have ports on it!

I like that they've finally added the isms

13:00 The blue in eastern North America would be Mississippian religious area. Cahokia would still be around until the mid-14th century. I'm curious to see what they'll do with that.

I am a little sad that again Europe and its tiles are huge comparatively to the rest of the world. I know it kind of has to if they want to show all the HRE nations, but it’s always been a gripe of mine with eu4.

Strigolnichestvo is Orthodox heresy that started in Pskov, something like lollard, against church hierarchy. In Russian it sounds like Strigolniki - Стригольники

Look at Caspian sea :)

The h in Náhuatl is silent, and the first syllable is the stressed one

So about Jainism, one of it's core tenets is ahimsa(non violence) towards everyone. This is the reason they refuse to intentionally hurt any human, animal or insect and which is why they cannot eat non vegetarian food or food grown underground and they tend to drink boiled water and have strict rules of eating before dusk. I like how developers made so jainism cannot attack without cb because that would be kinda realistic for a religion that puts such heavy stress on not hurting anyone.

Is it possible the blue in Bohemia represents a historical Jewish community?

I guess the blue in the czech lands are judaism, considering the blue colour it has in the ”religious set up of aragon”-picture. The question is if it’s Knaanic jews or Ashkenazi jews. Interesting none the less!

The christianity in Bosnia you saw is the Krisijani as you saw it in the dev diary plus it's the same religion as in CK3

WOW, its my first time see whole world map i also have 950 hours in EU4 and 1200 in HOI4

25:31 I think that's supposed to be Waldensian, which was present in Bohemia and often associated with the later introduction of Wycliffe's teachings that subsequently influenced Hussitism.

14:16 Shouldn't the biger blob be Krstjani and the small (pink?) one Bogomilism?

I think that the purple colour on the religion map mode represents the "Krstjani" branch of Christianity, because it was exclusively practiced in Bosnia, whereas Bogomilism was practiced in various places.

This is really looking like a game if crusader kings and Europa had a love child and I'm all for it

Ludi!!!! Whats your thoughts on age of history 3!!!!!!

Omg Romuvan, did i saw Romuvan (or vidilists?) not "pagan", i will be playing it 24/7

I am soo freaking excited for this game my early Christmas wish is please let it eb released soon :'D. Also Cheers Ludi I appreciate you making content, keep it going and congrats on that 200k man

Can we create a new religion? Like sayin "ok guys, ı am a propeth".

Glory to Romuva 🇱🇹

14:14 that big purple one is probably Kristanji, with the bright pink being Bogomilist

The Lavendar in Bosnia looks to be Krstjani (Bosnian Church) and the Pink might be Bogomilism. Only reason I say this is that by this point most Bogomils were gone, with the exception of a few pockets scattered in the Balkans. Krstjani on the other hand was only concentrated in the Banate of Bosnia, with the Ban being either Krstjani or Catholic.

The calvinist thing means that alt-f4ing and redoing the battle won't change the dice roll. Presumably the seed is loaded on initial game generation but takes in enough inputs that every battle will have unique dice rolls but redoing the battle will have the same result as the inputs are the same (unless you change it last second like add a discipline advisor [eu4 analogy]) very funny.

Manichaeism is pretty much a blend of Christianity, Gnosticism, Zoroastrianism, and then later it takes on aspects of Eastern religions. Mani, the founder, was raised Christian iirc. Idk where you got Judaism from, maybe you were thinking about Mandaeism. Blue in Tibet is probably Bön Also I doubt there is any Norse religion in Greenland.

Ludi, take a look at the Caspian Sea. Caspean Sea fleets confirmed? Why else would it have those tiles?

14:08 the religion in Bosnia that you are referring to is actually what the game calls "krjstiani" religion a.k.a. the Bosnian church, I don't know a lot about it but apparently was a form of catholicism that was declared erethic from both catholics and orthodox, the pink bit that's bogomilism

I assume the blue strips in Tibet are the Bön religion.

It might not be possible in EU5, but in future Paradox Games it would be really interesting to look at theological factions within sects themselves that can provide certain modifiers and maybe have unique mechanics. CK has a history of doing it with Islam but is very lazy with the way they consider Muwalladis as a sect alongside the Ash'aris and Mu'tazila. Would be interesting to see the development of the Maturidi school and possible events with the Ottomans (given that they were champions of that creed) as well as the Ahlul Hadith/Athari/Salafi/"Wahhabi" tradition being explored with multiple major historical events throughout the game being possible.

21:33 they are Assyrians Ludi,not Kurds. Kurds are Sunni. In Syria and Lebanon they should probably be mostly Syriacs but also some Armenians and even some Greeks. Because there's a community of Christian Romans in Syria,just like in Pontus. And this community existed back then too but they shouldn't be too many

14:40 you are wrong. Bosnians were followers of the Krstjani denomination of Christianity. Bogomilism was a miniscule minority scattered across the Haemus Peninsula at the start date of this EU5. And yes, Tibet should follow the Vajrayana type of Buddhism. Maybe that's what the hashes are about, the devs might be making changes there.

damn Ludi, you didnt talk about Sami Shamanism :D I was afraid from ck3 to feel barren and it was ok. From seeing these tinto talks, especially this religion talk, I guess we can be pretty relaxed about project ceasar. they really want to create a masterpiece.

damn we live in such boring times, not that the people around back then other than explorers trades and travelers knew how diverse and interesting their world was, so many stories lost to time...

According to the map Inti only exists in Cusco, this could mean quite a bit. Either they want to add more Andean faiths, or they’re trying to show that neighboring faiths weren’t the exact same.

I really hope I can do an England Lollard playthrough

My guess about the 2 different religions of Mesoamerica (beside the maya one) would be that one of them was the original mesoamerican polytheist religion and the second one, the mixture beetwen them and the more tribalish nahua religion, coming from the north.

America doesn't seem moved north anymore ! hurrah !

manichean came to being in Sassanid era which persia was in a religious Changes and it was a changed zoroastrian which mixed with other religions mostly Christianity in order to demonstrate a harmony with other religions

So, that bit in Bohemia might be Conciliarism. If that's a day 1 religion map that feels a little early, but maybe not. I need to do a deeper dive into the Bohemian Reformation but i do know that a fairly significant amount of the area was fairly critical of the Papacy even pre Jan Hus.

Man, that Sakhalin split... Is just the Russian-Japanese border after 1905

Terraforming the Saara desert would be asking too much I think.

Dharmic should cover Hinduism, different types of Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism when it pops up

Having played a lot of Imperator Rome recently, I'm noticing a lot of very similar mechanics.

And yet there's main question, i have unanswered: will we finally get the multithread support for Clausewitz engine?

Sunni Islam in the Great Horde regions seems a bit inaccurate. I get that they converted to Islam. But was the entire population there Sunni?

Regarding Tibet. Should be a mixture of Tibetan Buddhism and still at this point Bon being around. So one of the colors might be Bon.

10:41 *this is a good joke on calvinist/reformed theology. They believe in predestination*

14:22 Bosnia wasn’t actually Bogomolist, the Catholic Priest who was supposed to represent Bosnia just really didn’t like them, and some of their practices (such as the shape of gravestones) and accordingly sorta bullshited that Bosnia was Bogmolist, as much of the Christian world still remembered that heresy

On the topic of Religion in the Balkans: Bogomilism has more to do with Bulgaria than Bosnia, and it was predominantly about a century earlier. I assume that the pink around Bosnia and Albania is the remnants of Bogomilism, while the grey area in Bosnia is the Krstjani, whose origin (at least the word) has to do with Croatia.

i think the light blue in Tibet and parts of SEA is Vajrayana Buddhism

The Bosnians aren't Bogomilist in-game, they're Krysjani. It's a variant of Christianity which was present in Bosnia ever since roughly the 8th century. The big Lilac blob in Bosnia are the Krystjani and the smaller pink blob are the Bogomilists. Also that's how it is in CK3.

I'm gonna go so ham as the Hussites

Most historians now disagree with the labelling of the Bosnian Christians as Bogomilists. They shared a lot of doctrines but are now mostly considered distinct. I strongly believe they will most likely be Krstjani instead, as that sounds Slavic and they were known to just call themselves "Christians" at the time.

5:13 The +10 refers to 10 pops being converted each month.

There should be a mechanism to quit Rome Cath Church in Europe unlike the EU4 that only can trigger by event.

EU3 did have Shamanism. All the Tengris, Totemists, Nahuatls and then Congolese and Sami were considered Shamanist, I think.

The yellow in India might be catholisism being that there were some small communities and at the beggining of the XIV century a bunch of catholic missionaries settled in some parts of India, I think, might be wrong

I really hope they don't rush it. This game could make or break their entire reputation. If they kill their flagship series, I struggle to see how they will return

I guess they split tengri and shamanism for interactions with budism some historians calls tengirsm is evolved to turkish budism like uyghurs

I am stoked for some Saami Shamanist games trying to reconquer all the land belonging to the Finns and doing a reindeer horde.

I hope you can revive Hellenism or Mithraism or something

The blue lines in Tibet may be the Bön religion

This game is like all their games into one its seeming insanely fun and hopefully not to confusing lol
