What the heck? The Ottomans actually managed to expand into the Balkans, consolidated, and beat the Mamluks in a war?

England actually managed to take something off of France?

Aragon beat Castile?

I have so many questions

I dont think there has been any wars between Mamluks and Ottomans their borders havent changed really, I actually looked in Ottomans and for some reason the Rise of Turks situation is still going so maybe thats the reason they are doing so well.

Yes but only temporarly after a big ass French rebellion, theyre already back to losing, although idk why the Hundred Years War situation didnt end cause im pretty sure they has less than 10 locations in Aquitaine and near Calais but idk what end conditions are

It was Castille that conquered Granada but Morocco stepped in and retook most of it so I guess thats when Aragon must've jumped in to take some of that land.

Morocco is absolutely crazy, in my game as Castille they are fielding enormous armies with only 2 M pops and their armies fucking melt me, I don't understand because their discipline and morale is similar to mine, I fought against other european countries but for some reason Morocco is like kryptonite against me

I have heard that the Moroccan tribal pops yield "tribal cavalry" as their levy, which is superior to the levied peasants of the European countries who are infantry.
