Europa Universalis IV is the best grand strategy game you may ever play. You can choose every nation to control, even small countries and duchies wtih their historical and unique missions, events, allies, rivals in any year from 1444 to 1821. Also there are lots of mods that changes the gameplay a lot. It's one of the hardest game you may ever learn but trust me, it'll worth to learn the game (Even it may take up to 2000 hours of gameplay to get every single detail). I recommend you to learn it with a friend that played more than 1000 hours. However, all DLC's are required to have the best game experience.
