My history teacher lied to us. She said that Switzerland had colonies in Africa but apparently they didn't.  lol should had should her that. idk where these teacher get their information Most of the school level history is junk, 1/3 is a winner propaganda and 2/3 is half truths... It is hard to find decent history books that actually doesn't take propaganda seriously, for example tell me who was the major contributors for winning Napoleon at Waterloo? I bet you will answer British, but they did only 40% of the hard work, without Prussian contribution it still had been a failure even after they took out the first attack from Napoleon, Napoleon still had more menthe and better positions than British and British would had no way to attack him after repealing the initial attack, this is only one of the major things that are obvious if you know all the facts... |

Basically, she didn't say that during the History lesson. She said that at "Philosophy". But she also teaches history to us. |

The 30 Years RP is still looking for players. If you don't think you have what it takes, you probably do. Come on over to the RP board, and I can get you hooked up with an awesome country!

Ah, you're here I see. I've returned as well. I might take a peek at the RP, but I've kinda got FGO farming hell and 3 games of Dippy at the same time, so I'll remain as a spectator, even though the 30yw is awesome and Gustavus Adolphus is best king. (I'm Transfermium BTW) |

Saber Lily, is actually the one that started this thread. The original post was slightly edited to explain the purpose of the thread because so many of our newer members are sorta confused by this EFC tradition. They just see a giant thread with a pile of about a billion topics

I just realized how OP Russia is in Eu4. Currently playing as them and I got 100% army size modifier, and neighbors only have like 10k troops, I have 80k. Time for conquest, doesn't help neighbors that PLC never formed and Lithuania is in bad condition from all the rebellions. Fun times await them.

I have a question for you Saltin. It seems like Gaius Julius Caesar recently got a custom title. That got me wondering, does it do anything? Can I create my own 1 or do you? Cuz I want one  |

Custom tittles been kinda rare, so far they have only been given on special occasions.His is actually an old one, it's just that Caesar is using a new avatar/account and it just got updated from before.
He was given that tittle for being the only EFC'er so far (that we know of ) to have published a book. So the staff thought it was special enough to merit a unique bling on his avatar. It doesn't do anything per se, it's a recognition and maybe a small talk starter.
I am not opposed to expanding the concept to more members but I think it would need to have some sort of structure or logic to it and probably be less common or else the distinction would not mean much.
There is another custom tittle that could be issued for the winner of the new EFC banner if he/she chooses that prize. You are part of that competition so you have a chance at it.
