Diplomacy and keeping relations up

[Morindin]

I think the AI diplomacy has worked well for the most part. However, there is a very big exception and that is ceasefires. In the end of my Venice game, I was around 40 provinces and was making tons of money and had lots of soldiers. The English were asking for 40k for a ceasefire. They had the British Isles and maybe a few provinces in Scandinavia or Iberia. Needless to say, I said no thanks to the repeated offers and conquered London instead.

Again this is based on their alliance power and not individual power. Check their rating, it is probably 'supreme' due to the alliances they were in, or something along those lines.

My power is supreme, more supreme than everybody else. The only faction that's even close is the Timurids. The Mongols have been weakened considerably as well. The English were allied with neither of them. I tested toggle_fow after I beat that game already, and found out the Hungarians have conquered Novgorod and lots of Russian possessions. They have been my allies for many years. I think the Egyptians are my allies as well. Territory-wise, I'm no. 1 by a huge, huge margin and my two allies are probably in the top 5. Hungary is likely second.

The Timurids have 9 stacks and my power is stronger than theirs. There's no way the English in that game have a power rating remotely close to mine.
