... and all the other things floating around out there / Re: Europa Universalis General Thread

Seems kind of ridiculous to have Morocco stronger than Spain. I know there's a lot of disgruntled paradox forum dwellers who think every country should be able to become an advanced superpower and pull off a world conquest but it's really silly.
Europe DID come out of the late middle ages with the best armies (only maybe Japan, Ottomans and the best Asian nomads came close at mid 15th century) & navies. Not only that but European countries did have the best government because they had setup structures that reduced the damage that incompetent god-kings who could ruin everything, which was the main problem of the rest of the world (even the most sophisticated places like China), which allowed them to quickly advance from there.
