Nope, Maltese (Divine Wind). They can form Spain however, what's the deal with that?
Maltese is in the Iberian culture group.

Heh, I assumed Maltese would be in the Latin culture group, always thought the majority of the population came from Sicily. I guess that's more of a modern thing though.

Huh. Wonder if it's transferable (cause I already have it)...guess I could log onto a buddy's computer with my Amazon account, download and active it there, and then he'd register it in Steam with the CD-key from Amazon?

If it's a Steamworks title you should be able to just get the key off Amazon and give it to someone else. If you already have the game on Amazon then I really don't know.

The heck? I thought Death and Taxes had the colony rename mod in it., but I see myself and other countries colonising with no name changing. Is there something I'm missing or is the mod just not in D&T?

Nah, I bought it through Steam last Christmas, then bought the Paradox bundle through Amazon now. Ohh, I see what you're saying, they could just register the game in Steam using the key from Amazon and then download it through Steam. I knew they should be able to use the key, I was just pondering how'd they get the actual file download. All the other Steam games that I've registered after the fact were already installed at the time so there was no download needed.

The only paradox game this works for is CK2, as far as I'm aware.

Jesus christ how is it that England can withstand attacks from a fully fledged Ireland, Scotland, France, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Portugal, Wales and Burgundy? Not only that, but they destroyed all of us after. It doesn't make sense, they didn't even have a navy!

Because chances are only Scotland can actually get on the mainland. The french fleet is garbage, Denmark, Burgundy and Portugal probably haven't built up enough, Norway and Sweden are poor, Wales is always useless.

I've never ever seen England actually "lose". I've watched them splinter after losing their navy, losing ~10 home provinces to Sweden and Castille, but then 15 years later they annex it all back, form GB, and proceed to roflstomp like nothing happened.

Luckily they aren't a huge threat to the player (theres only so many troops they can land at once, so you can rip apart what they drop before they get another stack onto you), but its very annoying to have them take a chunks of land on each corner of the earth.

Nope. Chances are, England most likely built several 100 ship fleets by the point your at.

Its really hard to beat England, because they only REALLY need to have a strong fleet to pervent any large armies from landing. Its just Logic, really. If your an Island nation whose only neighbor is a single nation far smaller then they are, its a good idea to keep the biggest and best fleet in the game. However, this has the drawback of England's army normally being piss poor because Max Navy.
