China: With the Heart of Darkness addition of uncivilized nations gaining research points in conquering land after certain military reforms have been unlocked, China is now much more suited to a beginner's style of play than it was in A House Divided.France also starts as the second Great Power, and has potential to easily overcome the United Kingdom as the greatest nation in the world, with a powerful navy, strong industries and a big piece of Africa. The French have a good-sized army, some extra-European colonies from which to start colonizing Africa, and their only natural enemy is Prussia due to German cores in Alsace-Lorraine. France: For players who want to dig deep into the politics and war of Europe, France offers a good starting point.Their only natural enemy is Russia due to early Russian colonization of Sakhalin and, potentially, colonial Hokkaido. The geographical isolation Japan starts in allows them to remain mostly undisturbed for most of the game, and their literacy rate- for an uncivilized nation- is phenomenal. Japan: Japan offers a player the chance to experience the rise from uncivilized status to a Great Power with relative ease.The unification of the Nordic countries to form Scandinavia is a relatively easy way to comprehend the formation of greater nations, as can also happen with Italy, Gran Colombia, Germany and others. Sweden is possible to bring into Great Power status with good strategic choices, and thus offers a fairly big upside. Sweden: A relatively safe nation to play that is closer to the action in Europe, Sweden's primary threat comes from Russia.It is not hard to remain the greatest power in South America, as Brazil already starts in that condition, but there is room for even greater accomplishments. Perhaps most interesting of all, Brazil can be made into a Great power and offers some opportunities at colonization should a new player be so inclined. The nation is fairly uncomplicated economically, allowing a new player to dive into the details a little to understand the different components of game play. Brazil offers a sort of sandbox to learning game play in a way that will forgive errors and mistakes rather easily. Brazil: Brazil starts as secondary power and is far away from the most dominating and threatening nations of the game in Europe.For players who have never played a previous Victoria game, selecting a nation that is a reasonably small size without any immediate threats is a good starting point. Proper selection of a nation to play is essential to learning the game. They affect your army's and navy's supply consumption, your country's research points and leadership gain, and in case of 'very easy', war exhaustion.Īll AI countries has static modifiers to Land and Naval organisation, leadership, militancy, infamy and research points. They affect both the player country and AI countries with static modifiers. The difficulty is set in the settings and should be set at the start of a new game.

Expansions: The game has two expansions called A House Divided and Heart of Darkness.As a result, it is absolutely essential to apply patches-these represent a more complete and "finished" version of the game.
