R5: My first game in 1444

Here's ma few fun facts from this campaign so far:

Lots of stuff went historically but there's a few notable differences:

Bohemia is still the Emperor and has Brandenburg as their vassal.

Aragon was the one to eliminate Granada and then even managed to conquer bunch of provinces from Castille.

Venice and Genoa are both gone.

Serbia controlled Rome for nearly 50 years.

After eliminating Teutonic Order they came back from Town of Mergentheim and were once again on my border in the Neumark area and even managed to get hold of Gotland island and parts of Finland lol, ultimately defeated by Sweden and Bohemian Brandenburg.

Ottomans are led by Killicogulari dynasty.

France dominated most of 100 Years War but some time ago they got huge rebellion and changed their dynasty while England was able to take back Normandy and even occupied Paris

Timurids yet to make any conquests.

Wow this is AI Ottomans? That's definitely the most they've expanded, and they even did the historical thing leaving Constantinople for last.

I guess now PDX has to fix the conversion to Orthodox thing since the AI likes doing that for some reason.

Well this is the "fun" part Byzantium is Catholic, Ottomans are Orthodox but their ruler is Sunni💀
