Victoria 3: Pivot Of Empire

The Victorian Age was a time of transformation for India, and Pivot of Empire highlights the challenges facing any ruler of that great and diverse nation, including the fragmentation of princely states, the demands of Parliament, the growing demands for Indian independence, and more. The East India Company, a private enterprise backed by the power of the British Parliament, governs tens of millions of subjects in India and is the center of gravity for politics in South Asia. But a population that large and diverse can only be ruled by foreign shareholders for so long before the weight of numbers imposes itself on historical destiny.

  • New Events and Journal Entries for the East India Company, the British Raj, the Sikh Empire, and various Princely States.
  • New Historical Content for India and the Sikh Empire, including The Indian Uprising and various historical social and political movements, as well as companies.
  • Choose the future of India as nationalists debate between the fight for reform or the dream of full independence, and British administrators anxiously try to preserve their power.
  • Reshape the British India Caste System through laws and events, contending with the existing power structure.
  • Use the new Harvest and Famines mechanics to secure India's food supply, taking advantage of the unique events and narrative content.
  • New art, including new buildings, a new UI skin, a new paper map, event art, clothing assets and many new historical Characters.
