| — Description of forming Hunnic Empire |
Hunnic Empire is a formable for 
Hungary. It spans the Balkans, the Carpathians, and Eastern Europe 
, restoring the domain of the Huns.
Background[]
The following is taken from Wikipedia which is licensed under CC-BY-SA 4.0. You can view the article it was taken from here.
The Huns were a nomadic people who lived in Central Asia, the Caucasus, and Eastern Europe between the 4th and 6th century AD. According to European tradition, they were first reported living east of the Volga River, in an area that was part of Scythia at the time; the Huns' arrival is associated with the migration westward of an Iranian people, the Alans. By 370 AD, the Huns had arrived on the Volga, and by 430 the Huns had established a vast, if short-lived, dominion in Europe, conquering the Goths and many other Germanic peoples living outside of Roman borders, and causing many others to flee into Roman territory. The Huns, especially under their King Attila, made frequent and devastating raids into the 
Eastern Roman Empire. In 451, the Huns invaded the Western Roman province of Gaul, where they fought a combined army of Romans and Visigoths at the Battle of the Catalaunian Fields, and in 452 they invaded the Italian Peninsula. After Attila's death in 453, the Huns ceased to be a major threat to Rome and lost much of their empire following the Battle of Nedao (454?). Descendants of the Huns, or successors with similar names, are recorded by neighbouring populations to the south, east, and west as having occupied parts of Eastern Europe and Central Asia from about the 4th to 6th centuries. Variants of the Hun name are recorded in the Caucasus until the early 8th century.
In the 18th century, the French scholar Joseph de Guignes became the first to propose a link between the Huns and the Xiongnu people, who were the northern neighbours of 
China from the 3rd century BC to the late 1st century AD. Since Guignes' time, considerable scholarly effort has been devoted to investigating such a connection. The issue remains controversial. Their relationships with other entities such as the Iranian Huns and the Indian Huna people have also been disputed.
Very little is known about Hunnic culture and very few archaeological remains have been conclusively associated with the Huns. They are believed to have used bronze cauldrons and to have performed artificial cranial deformation. No description exists of the Hunnic religion of the time of Attila, but practices such as divination are attested, and the existence of shamans likely. It is also known that the Huns had a language of their own, however only three words and personal names attest to it. Economically, they are known to have practiced a form of nomadic pastoralism; as their contact with the Roman world grew, their economy became increasingly tied with the 
Roman Empire through tribute, raiding, and trade. They do not seem to have had a unified government when they entered Europe, but rather to have developed a unified tribal leadership in the course of their wars with the Romans. The Huns ruled over a variety of peoples who spoke various languages and some of whom maintained their own rulers. Their main military technique was mounted archery.
The Huns may have stimulated the Great Migration, a contributing factor in the collapse of the Western Roman Empire. The memory of the Huns also lived on in various Christian saints' lives, where the Huns play the roles of antagonists, as well as in Germanic heroic legend, where the Huns are variously antagonists or allies to the Germanic main figures. In Hungary, a legend developed based on medieval chronicles that the Hungarians, and the Székely ethnic group in particular, are descended from the Huns. However, mainstream scholarship dismisses a close connection between the Hungarians and Huns. Modern culture generally associates the Huns with extreme cruelty and barbarism.
Economy and Manpower[]
TBD
Geography[]
Terrain[]
The Carpathian Mountains and the Alps are Mountainous. The only Semi-Mountainous bits are central-eastern and southeastern 
Serbia, and the area just north of Bucharest but just south of Transylvania. The Sudetenland, southern Munich, the rest of Serbia except for Vojvodina, the area surrounding Bratislava, and the northwestern area of Transylvania are all Hilly.
Biome[]
Though the Hunnic Empire does not have any permanent biomes, 
Ukraine, eastern Hungary, the entire north of 
Romania except for a western sliver in Transylvania, all of 
Slovakia except for the Bratislava area, and the 
Czech Republic experience Mild Winter in November and February. In December-January, the afforementioned areas experience Severe Winter, while the red of the empire experiences Mild Winter.
Strategy[]
Note: these steps can be different from what server you are in, Example: 
France takes 
Germany, or 
Poland, Ukraine, possibly even 
Belarus has ambitions to form the 
Intermarium.
- You need to make 2-3 electronic factories IMMEDIATELY. (2 is recommended though) Also a Steel Factory and Motor Factory.
- Take
Romania and Slovakia before somebody else does. Also ally Germany and maybe ask for Bavaria's release (Or maybe even Austria if Germany took it.) when he leaves. - Take Serbia. Negotiate with Turkey if they have it.
- Taking Moldova and Ukraine will be a pain especially if Russia has it. The best ways are to negotiate or ask for it when Russia (or anyone who has it) leaves. Maybe, just maybe team up against Russia with your allies. Another potential strategy, is to take Moldova early on. If you are confident in your ability to defend against Russia, you could possibly defend until Ukraine breaks free. This may not happen if they use communism or socialism, but Russia may go the nationalist route instead, which has no war exhaustion reduction. This, however, is risky.
- You have reformed the Hunnic Empire, great job!
Formables[]
- Once formed, you can no longer form the Kingdom of Hungary and the Austro-Hungarian Empire, due to them being exclusive formables, and can only continue to form the European Union.
Threats[]
- Germany is your biggest threat as it controls Bavaria on game-start and will expand further east into Austria and the Czech Republic.
- Russia needs Ukraine and Moldova to form the Russian Empire or the Soviet Union, and they will possibly expand into Romania and further.
- Poland needs the Czech Republic and Slovakia to form Zapadoslavia, and Ukraine for the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. ( Slovakia may also form it too.)
- Any Balkan nation needs Serbia to form the Balkan Federation.
- Greece needs Serbia to form the Byzantine Empire and the Macedonian Empire.
- Bosnia and Herzegovina needs Serbia to form the Kingdom of Bosnia.
- Albania needs Serbia to form the Albanian Empire.
- Turkey needs Serbia to form the Ottoman Empire and it may possibly expand into Romania and further.
- Italy may expand east and could invade Austria and Serbia.
- Any Ostrogothic nation willing to form the Ostrogothic Kingdom.
- Belarus needs Ukraine to form Ruthenia.
- Austria could be a player and needs Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and Romania to form the Austro-Hungarian Empire or the Austrian Empire.
- Romania could be a player and needs Ukraine, Slovakia, Hungary, Serbia, and Moldova to form the Kingdom of Dacia.
- Ukraine could be a player and needs Moldova to form Kievan Rus
- The Czech Republic or Slovakia may be a player and might attempt to reunify into Czechoslovakia.
- If the Czech Republic is a player, then may also decide to form the Kingdom of Bohemia, which requires Austria.
- If the
- Serbia could be a player and could restore Yugoslavia.
