Cheers Ichigo, I love old maps. Doesn't look quite as fragmented as the start of a game of EU. Is the House of Austria the Hapsburgs?

There were probably 30+ small German states I think, I'm not sure how many at the start of EU(1453?). Yeah, the Hapsburgs controlled Austria and Spain at this time iirc and probably more.

I am happy to bow out of Poland-Lithuansia for Splitpersonality, if can go some other power (however minor it is)

Scottishranger changed from the Netherlands, they could be an interesting choice Beskar.

Thank you beskar, that is rather noble of you.

Would be honoured to play as some worthless nation like Iceland

Split, the HRE in EUIII is less fragmented that it actually was. The game leaves out quite a bit of the unruly fiefs that might have considered themselves independant, several loose confederations counting as a faction, and other game streamliners.
