Europa Universalis V - Feature Video: Government, Politics & Estates

A politically active population, a dynamic cabinet of advisors, a vast variety of government types, and a revitalized system of crown power and estate balance—this is the backbone of your nation in Europa Universalis V.

In this official feature video, we delve deep into the political heart of EU5, exploring how you’ll navigate the complex web of power to rule your empire:

Government Types: From feudal monarchies to merchant republics, each with unique mechanics and challenges.
Dynamic Advisors: Recruit, manage, and leverage a cabinet of specialists who shape your nation’s capabilities.
Estate Balance: Negotiate power with nobles, clergy, and Burghers — or risk rebellion and collapse.
Crown Authority: Centralize power for efficiency, or delegate to keep factions loyal.

Whether you’re currying favor with the aristocracy or crushing dissent to assert your dominance, every decision will echo through your nation’s history.
