Started a war in 1493 against the arch-enemy Spain. It lasted 9 long years, but I didnt quit hitting them until they where totaly defeated. Savoy was my trusted ally and thus they where able to conquer a province from Spain to. Me myself took all the others...
A view of the world in the year of our Lord 1502. The greatest threath to France annhiliated. That same year I also used my one colonist to establish a trade post on St: Martin. The conquest of Spain had given me some usefull maps over America.

Next phase in the expansion started 1508 against England and Portugal. Scottland helped me out. After 4 years of war all of England was conquered. I did also recive some usefull maps both from England and Portugal. England was annexed and from Portugal I only took Tangier and Cap Verde. Portugueses was excellent explorers so if I left them alive I could return every now and then and take their maps from them...
In 1515, reformation struck the world. I converted to protestantism and thus earned an extra colonist/year. It lowered our stability to -3 so I decided to lay low a bit and focus a bit on colonisation. Quebec was the first one who recived a colonist, the area had been revealed after the conquest of London. Soon a city emerged there...

On a second thought...why should Portugal be allowed to exist... Declared war in 1524. The war lasted two years. Portugal was annexed and also some minors; Lothringen and Kleve who tryed to support them was joining them. Scottland did also make a move against France so I took Marsches from them.
A few years afterwards it was time to annhiliate some of the german minors. I shouted "If you cant defend your self you have no right to exist" and started a crusade...
It took awhile to push forward but by paying some of them and concentrate on one nation at the time I was soon able to annex a bunch of them, such as Baden, Saxony... also Naples did go down the toilett.
BB score at 175 proud points...

You're giving me ideas for my next AAR. " 'Who are you?' 'I can't remember my name, except that it starts with an E. I lost my memory while under torture from the evil Yoghurt.' 'I dub thee Lord E. Why is this guy named Yoghurt?' 'He tells people that all the coagulated blood on the floor is yoghurt with red food colouring.'

Sound like some fun
Yep. All I have to do is decide what country I'll have Yoghurt from. It's either going to be France or Turkey, but more likely Turkey since I plan on getting rid of France as soon as possible.
All hail Yorghurt, Lord of the evil Sith.
In 1540 it was time for the next french crusade... This time I focused more on the Italian region. The Pope begged on his bare knees to spare him, but why should I do that... I beheaded him and proclaimed myself as Pope of the new church... As usual several nations tryed to stop the rightfully french claims, so they had to be punished to Genoa, Hansa, Bavaria and some other puny nations was incorporated.
Also the colonisation went slowly ahead. I established an "lz" in present day Indonesia as well as I continues to promote the colonisation of North America. Unfortunally Goa, conquered by Portugal back a while ago, was destroyed by the devilish indians, so France lacked a colony in India.
Another thing that occured was that France changed state religion into reformed during this second crusade. In resulted in some smaller rebellion, but after have showed Frances strenght by annexing some smaller nation the people calmed down...

The glorifull expansion of the french empire continued. In 1555 Bohemia, Milan and Austria had kneeled before the French Emperor; Yoghurt
At the same time colonist was prepared in a rate of 3 per year. They where send out cross the globe to distant places such as East India and America.
In 1562 after a short war and some bribes to other nations, Brandenburg was assimilated. All of Germany was now in the hands of France and Yoghurt crowned himself Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire aswell

The same year that Yoghurt was crowned Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire he found out that he had a conquistador in Paris. This brave trooper was send among some cavallery cross the Atlantic and there they discovered... the Azteks... The Azteks had never heard of the glorifull French Empire but they where soon enlighted... the poor lads did have to much gold then they could spend so Yoghurt promised to take care off it...

Yoghurt, I have too much money. Come beat me up and steal it.
*Yoghurt takes his twin bladed laser swords and seperates "J. Passeportouts", "J." from his name, leaving him with only "Passeportouts".
With a dark voice Yoghurt says - Your wounded... give me your purse and I´ll let you live Passeportouts replie - Bah.. its just a scratch...
Yoghurt then makes a roll in the air, lands in a split and then cut off "Passeportouts", "outs", leaving him with only "Passeport" left...
Submit before its to late
Its just a flesh wound... come on you chicken...
Yoghurt then take the lasersword as a whirlwind infront of him and cut "Passeport" in half... leaving "Passeport" in two parts "Passe" and "port".
Now you will bleed to death because of your ignorance...
That didnt even hurt... youre the weakest swordsman I ever seen... Passe and port shouts..
Well this can go on for ever...
Why do my AARs always end up like this

"Sir, do you have a passport?" "I am a passport." Can any of you non-French people pronounce my nickname?
Well Yoghurt amused imself by making some conquests in America and northern Africa, the Incas, Algier, Tunis and so on was incorporated into the French Empire...
