Westphalia (Empire: Total War)

For the Napoleon: Total War faction, see Westphalia (Napoleon: Total War).

Westphalia is a minor faction in Empire: Total War.

General Information

Westphalia initially controls the region of Rhineland. It neighbors Württemberg in the south, the United Provinces in the north, Hannover in the east and Spanish Flanders in the west.

Like most other minor nations, Westphalia is weak in the very early stages but can quickly build up a sizable army.

Along with the Thirteen Colonies, New Spain, and Louisiana, Westphalia is one of the few nations in Empire: Total War that cannot reemerge if destroyed. If a revolution succeeds in Rhineland, Hessen emerges instead.

Unit Roster

Westphalia has much in common with Austria in terms of unit roster composition, having access to Hungarian Hussars and Windbüchse Jaegers. However, they usually don't have access to these units as they require ownership of the regions of Hungary and Austria, respectively.

Trivia

• The flag used by Westphalia is the flag of the Kingdom of Westphalia, which is historically anachronistic as this flag was used during 1807-1813.
