I love reading about the various little navies around the world. In a better world, one where Forefather Czech wasn't a moron and decided to settle in some less landlocked place, I would have been a naval officer for sure.

The (English) Wikipedia page on the Navy of Uruguay is not well-maintained. "...delivered by June 2024" - well, did they get them or not? It's been two years. Also, there are *no sources cited* warnings everywhere. A Uruguayan naval enthusiast needs to give it a look over.

They have gone from "we will deport 20 million people in the next 4 years" to "woawza we might, maybe, somehow, potentially go from 53% white to 63% in the next 80 years." Incredible. Blackpillers and Europoors totally and utterly owned.
Matt Forney@mattforney

Blackpillers, Europoors: "lmao 56 percent mutts ur already a nonwhite country" Reality: Demographics have already reversed so starkly that whites will be at least 63 percent of the American population by 2100.

This site has become worse than rage inducing, it's just boring nowadays. Always the same talking points from 2015, and the rest is essentially gossip. Seems like most good poasters capable of original thought have either left or don't bother anymore.

It's just absurd. If you are meant to be playing as the "spirit of the nation", then you should have control over both, as in every other PDX title. And if you are playing as the government, then you should have *far* more control over the military than over farms in Siberia.

Every time I try to get into Vic3, the military system filters me out in an hour. I wouldn't mind if the *whole* game was like that. But nope. I have a level of control over my economy that Gosplan could only dream of, but military? Medieval monarchs had more control than I do.

Which is bleak, because Prague with a skyline would be a *spectacular* thing to behold. Not just aesthetically, but culturally. Prague with a skyline would mean we are actually daring to dream and build again. That we can do more than just exist and preserve our fucking vistas.

Skylines are cool, simple as. I do believe that once the putrid commie-era relics start dying off, we will be able to fix some of Prague's worst issues. "Medieval Parking Lot" especially. But I fear I will never see Prague with a skyline. The "muh vista" brainrot goes *deep*.

I will never understand the obsession with "having a skyline" In what context am I supposed to be benefitting from living in a city "with a skyline" I am very rarely hovering above the suburbs in a helicopter

@TheOneDolf And in any (serious) federalisation proposal, it was accepted that the German parts of Bohemia would become their own regions, so I think that would more or less appease most of them. They would still grumble, but it would be manageable. The monarchy would still be German.

@TheOneDolf With the German nationalists, I think it depends on the kind of reform. I don't think they would grumble too much about South Slavic Trialism. The big no-no would be a Bohemian Trialism, with a large German population in a Czech-dominated Bohemia, but that was pretty unlikely.

I am sceptical that Austria-Hungary could have been reformed without some nasty internal bloodbath. I don't see any possible reform/path forward that would be acceptable to Slavs, Hofburg and Hungarians at the same time. Two of them? Sure. But not all three. One would chimp out.

I am not saying this as a condemnation, btw. People often criticise der alte Procházka for not doing any big reforms in his later years, but it's not like he had any good options. As I said, there simply wasn't any easy way to fix the mess without massively alienating *someone*.

I am happy to see A-H's public image improving, but I feel like some people have overcorrected a bit recently. Yes, its dysfunction has been greatly overblown. But it *was* a dysfunctional mess, and no, it wasn't anywhere near close to fixing said dysfunction before WW1.
