Russia has a lot of resources to help them sufficient enough from the very beginning. Maybe you were unlucky... Btw, if Canada and Mexico loose ground in the initial turns, - it is OK. Sooner or later they will counterattack. Simply give them gold and don't ask what they are doing with it  They should be all right. But don't be a cheapskate Give them 150-200 coins each every turn. After Poland is defeated you can afford it... I usually hire one or two militia units when necessary and give the rest away... And what about Ottomans front? They will steamroll in case You won't spend a lot there? First I send Bagration into Moldavia immediately. He has a tent and is of great use there. Second, many Ottoman troops including Mahmud are often comming by see and can be easily killed there. Third I counterattack early on in Armenia using one general and all nearby grenadier units on this front. The city's defense is very weak there and Senyavin can destroy it with one shot. |

When I started Russia there was massive invasion through Moldavia to Crimea. I could only refresh militia there every turn for a veeeeery long time. |

Prussia is really quite easy.  Obviously I did something wrong with Russia try. Maybe going over the population limit was not a good idea |

Im using naples.can i prevent america from loosing?. You can help them survive before You come. But they can't beat Canada and Mexico reasonably fast anyway. The problem with Imperial Eagle team in 1812 and particularly USA as an ally is that US have enough money so Your donation is not necessary. And even if You donate it will be spend for cities upgrade, not the army. Unfortunately population limit prevents them from being effective against two comparable opponents. |

I find Poland to be not so hard. If I have the right generals and ranks, blitzing the Russians all he way to Moscow is not hard at all.

Here is gameplay video for a fast Warsaw (Poland) conquest 1798
Using this strategy I completed it within 29 turns. All You need is Spain to take Ireland on there own and it could be a record conquest.
Even in this video it could easily be a 30 turns conquest if Spain wouldn't lose their first city. Unfortunately You can't influence Spain (they can leave their cities empty even with treasury of around 2500 gold) but even if You need to conquer Ireland on Your own conquest is way easier than Netherlands as allies are doing really really great.
Why do we need to bribe Russia? Sometimes they are starting either earlier or same turn as Ottomans. Is it a bug or AI can send proticols to his allies?
Note: Don't let Ottomans go for Naples, DoW Russia as soon as the Ottomans are in the war. Otherwise Ottomans gens' and units start to embark and will go towards Russians turn or wvn two turns later.

Sometimes enemies start way earlier than usual, like if you play as Sweden Denmark's turn counter depletes two turns at a time. It's weird, perhaps the AI can actually send protocols. I've never thought about it like that. |

MountbattenI found out this happens with any enemy country that hasn't yet entered into the war if at least one of your units is inside their borders for the duration of the turn.

I originally thought that if you take enemy stables/factories/temples they automatically lose a turn. This is very good knowledge to have, at least for me. |

They should be all right. But don't be a cheapskate
