ACOUP - Teaching Paradox, Victoria II, Part III: World’s Fair

Closing out his look at Victoria II, Bret takes a look at a selection of different systems throughout the game and how accurate or flawed their simulation of real historical systems are. Slavery, the Scramble for Africa, colonization all offering varying degrees of accuracy for their real world counterparts, which Bret breaks down topic by topic.
