We don't have an official steam or discord group.

This day in history, July 12th: 1562 – Fray Diego de Landa, acting Bishop of Yucatán, burns the sacred books of the Maya. 1789 – In response to the dismissal of the French finance minister Jacques Necker, the radical journalist Camille Desmoulins gives a speech which results in the storming of the Bastille two days later. 1943 – German and Soviet forces engage in one of the largest armored engagements of all time.
Reminder Rhineland belongs to French. Check your nazi privilege.

Now returned from Rome and quite confident that neither the Pope nor her own vassals are watching her too closely, Bourgogne is prepared to initiate her plan. Yet for it to be a success she requires land, and cannot afford to sacrifice her own demesne at the risk of a plan which she is still not certain will even succeed. Moreover, if God is with her--for she does believe there is a God, merely that His will is not clear--and her plan is a success, she will undoubtedly need the fullness of her levies to discourage her vassals from rebelling against her.
This necessitates a holy war, and, thankfully, a target presents itself in the form of a rebellious vassal of the Seljuk Sultan, Umaya "the Cruel," a horrible man who is nevertheless well-regarded in Muslim society for being matrilineally related to the Prophet.
Bourgogne does not much care if he is related to Christ Jesus: his land is going to be hers.

That must be so devastating. I remember having Jurgen Herbst as a guest lecturer after reading his book for a uni class. He never quite pined for Hitler's Germany, openly anyways, but he definitely pined for his youth during it. He seemed to sad talking about it.

I've been reading a lot about Alexander the Great. Are there any good mods for any of the games within his time period?(356-323 BC) ?

Talex and the R&I are separate. The Grandi Youth is a group of two ot three autists with neverending free time to defend their lord and savior Talex.
Because, memes aside, it is a mod and needs to be recognized as such.

In the midst of her forces' campaign against Umaya, Bourgogne receives word that her brother, Prince Aubry the Younger, has died of an illness. It was well-known that Aubry was virtually overwhelmed with his position and responsibilities, and it is perhaps not all so surprising that, in such a vulnerable state, an illness could claim him.
While Bourgogne mourns him, she mourns more for the young man that he used to be, neither so burdened by his position nor so hateful towards her rule, back in the days when their father was young. Aubry had grown into a hard man to be around, and his plotting against her--for he supported the claim of their shared uncle, Philippe, in spite of swearing to their father that he would support her reign--only made his presence all the more hard to tolerate. So she mourned him, but she mourned him quietly, and not for too long.
Nevertheless she offers his son and the inheritor of his lands, Comte Aubry, to bury his father in the royal crypt beneath Jerusalem, an offer which her nephew accepts. It is well-known that Prince Aubry, while he stayed in Salamiyah almost always, was not over-fond of his seat.
He is buried next to their father, King Baudouin VI, who is, in turn, buried beside their mother, Gudrun von Limburg.

I'm completely fucked
It's 1650 now as Ceylon, colonized South Africa, the Moluccas and some other random islands and have about 30k troops. I settled a piece of land next to France to get westernized, and 15 years way from it a revolt is near, and when it's about to start fucking Kilwa (with 40k, albeit less teched troops) declares wars on me.
I have better and stronger allies, but I'm fucked
Should I just cancel westernizing to deal with the fuckers?

At the start of the next campaign season and while Bourgogne's war with Umaya is wrapping up, the new Byzantine Basileius, Germanos Petraleiphas, declares war upon Jerusalem to bring Chypre back into the Byzantine fold. The island, which is both incredibly wealthy and strategically significant, has been a part of Jerusalem for over one hundred years, and the Basileius has become concerned--rightly--that it will begin to be considered a natural part of Jerusalem if he does not act to dispel the notion quickly.
The war is inconvenient, but not terribly frightening: Germanos, like a fool, has begun the conflict just as the war currently distracting Queen Bourgogne has ended, and without even seeing himself crowned. What he undoubtedly believed would be a great coup will instead likely turn into a decisive failure for the Basileius, whose support from his own vassalge is questionable without a crown formally adorning his head.
"It is not a great concern to me," Bourgogne writes in her diary. "This Basileius is a fool man, puffed-up and waving his cock about. I suspect we will win easily, and this will turn into nothing more than a donation by the Basileius, from his coffers to ours."

What the fuck Paradox? I know you need to make France week to justify them getting steamrolled, but did you really have to gimp them this hard and ahistorically? France should be one of the richest countries in the game in terms of resources. Only America, Britain and the Soviet Union should be able to match it.
I've seen a Let's Play where Germany steamrolled France in 1936 and got Poland to join the Axis along with a few other slavshits. The only reason he didn't take Britain is because he made no concious effort to do so.

While her vassals are concentrated upon the impending invasion of Basileius Germanos, Bourgogne advances her plan.
When she rose to the throne and began to intently study theology, she did not merely do so to distract the church and affirm her piety, nor did she travel to Rome merely to see the sights; as with everything, there was an ulterior motive to Bourgogne's actions.
In actuality, she was studying heresy.
"All the major religions of the world favor patriarchal systems," ran one diary entry from her time at Rome, "yet many heretical sects favor equality of power. These sects are now virtually extinct, but information on them, and a few bare adherents, still exist. That in itself is a problem--to convert an entire society there must be some basis--but it is perhaps an issue to be handled at a later date. For now, it is far more important to locate a belief system which is both internally consistent and truly equalist in nature."
She searched far and wide for such a belief, both in the Lateran archives and in intense (if veiled) discussions with the clergy in Rome, but each heresy she discovered which preached equality had some inevitable and egregious downside which made its practical implementation impossible. Bogomilism was not only almost extinct and an Orthodox heretical movement to boot (guaranteeing conflict with both the Basileia Rhomaion and Catholic powers), it was also not truly a movement of equality, only allowing for equality of rule rather than of opportunity. Catharism was a much better choice in that it preached total equality for men and women, but it was also a harsh ideology which espoused rigid asceticism and celibacy, which Bourgogne knew no peasants would ever adhere to. Then there were the Tondrakians, which--while it would be popular with the peasants, for men could take concubines--was nevertheless only a religion of equality of rule, similar to Catharism.
Then, Bourgogne stumbled upon Messalianism.

You can annex the USA as basically any axis member. even Italy, by early 1937. You get zero revolt risk and 100% of their factories to use at full war economy
