A theoretical question

Conquer the world, except for england and then disband all your troops at once and declare war on them by attacking with a unit of peasants.

A good idea. I was thinking of leaving them for last. When I've finished all of them off I'll save and try that. Thanks for the suggestion.

I don't have an actual count, but I remember in my Italian game I turtled in a big way and apart from conquering the Sicilians and a little crusading early on I stuck to my homelands until well into the late period. My Spanish allies dominated the world, and by the time I started using the super-duper late period army I'd been building up to they controlled nearly everything except me and the pope. There were still two or three other factions with one or two provinces, but I'm sure the Spanish had well over 60% and the game just continued on.

I'm sure if another faction gained 100% it'd tell you (mostly because you'd be dead by then), but the AI doesn't seem to have a 60% victory option. Of course I could be wrong on this as my investigation is completely unscientific, but oh well. That's all I got.

As an avid early turtler I've seen some AI factions go big..all that seems to happen is at a certain point they get clobbered with masses of simultaneous rebellions.

Yes, i've seen the spanish get very large, then get hit with rebellions and civil wars right after another. It was quite funny.

Yes, the AI is about as competent as a first-time M:TW player when it comes to preventing rebellions, which makes me doubt we'll ever see a 100% victory for the AI, no matter how much you help it.

Playing the Danes my steadfast allies, the Spanish, conquered so much of the world that they experienced the loyalty drop which they were easily able to deal with. They had at least two horde sized armies that rained destruction on the rebels.
