Pirate Republics are a new type of nation in Europa Universalis IV, and they’re perfect for players who want to get their hands dirty. Here’s how to create one in the game:

  1. Start by picking a region on the map that you want to make your pirate republic. The best candidates are coastal regions with plenty of resources, like the Caribbean or Mediterranean.
  2. Next, start gathering your pirates. You’ll need at least 100 of them to start the process, and you can recruit them from coastal settlements or from ships that have been captured by your forces.
  3. Once you have your pirates, head over to your chosen region and start raiding ships and settlements. Be sure to take advantage of the region’s resources – pirate republics are all about plundering!
  4. Keep raiding until you have control over all of the territory in your region – this will make it easier for you to establish a government and start building up your navy.
  5. Once you have control over all of the territory in your region, go ahead and declare yourself a pirate republic! This will give you some unique bonuses (like increased naval power) and allow you to start building up your economy accordingly. ..
