What the fuck is this?

This is the second night in a row that I find myself searching online to try to figure out how to play the tutorial.

I have never before for any other games had to search up how to actually do the tutorial.

I am flummoxed.

After the first few steps it doesn't tell me anything and I'm just supposed to know how to expel the armed forces from my government?

This very much feels like "draw the rest of the fucking owl"

First rule of Victoria 3 and really any Paradox game is that there are tons of data and a lot of things happening which can be overwhelming but learning the game is just filtering out what matters from a bunch of things that don't matter. More you play the more you can realize what matters so it's easier to find out what doesn't, that's all. Can't really learn it without first playing it badly.

I tend to focus on one system at a time and start the game with a goal. That's usually a viable strategy, and after you play a game with each individual system, you can start combining your knowledge of how they work into more complex world building runs
