Nine Ligue 1 matches have been disrupted or abandoned this season. On the same day, fans of Marseille and Angers fought in the stadium after a 0-0 draw and Metz supporters invaded the pitch after a late winner against their side by Paris Saint-Germain.Īll of which came a week after an on-field ruckus between fans of Lille and Lens delayed the Derby du Nord by half an hour. Marseille’s Dimitri Payet is struck by a water bottle thrown by a Lyon supporter. The following month, a bus carrying Bordeaux fans was ambushed in Montpellier in an attack that left 16 people injured. Marseille were also embroiled in the season’s first outbreak of trouble, when Montpellier fans bombarded travelling supporters with missiles on the opening weekend. After the first time, at Nice in August, he hurled the bottle back into the crowd, an instinctive riposte that was interpreted by dozens of fans as an invitation to storm the pitch, leading to an extraordinary scene involving spectators, players and backroom staff. It was the second time this season Payet has been attacked on the pitch. Maracineanu was speaking in the aftermath of last Sunday’s match between Lyon and Marseille, which was called off after the Marseille midfielder Dimitri Payet was hit in the head by a bottle thrown by a fan. Another way to tell what tier a country is, is by if the country has a grey or gold bar on the left of their flag in the country selection screen, or if they have a gold or grey outline on the outside of their flag in the diplomacy tab.A wave of fan violence since the start of the season led the president of the Ligue de Football Professionnel (LFP), Vincent Labrune, to denounce “a gangrene that could kill us”, while France’s minister of sport, the former swimming champion Roxana Maracineanu, said: “Every time I go to a stadium I tell myself it’s a good thing I got my son into rugby rather than football.” Most high tier countries have a huge amount of land, and a ton of cities, unless part or most of the country is rural, for example, Russia's land in Siberia is rural, so most of the cities are spread apart. You can tell which tier a country is by how much money, tax, income, and manpower they have. Loss of cities will cause War Exhaustion and lower stability that will greatly weaken a country. They provide the money, resources and manpower. The blood of your country are your cities. There are only three superpowers, with no plans for more (so far): Each of these nations requires at least 100,000 XP to play as, with the most being China, requiring 250,000. Their population, manpower and economy are enormous. Tier VII countries are the main superpowers in the world. All of these countries have a silver bar by their flag in the country selection screen. Their population is large and their starting economy & military are one of the best.

Tier VI countries are minor superpowers in the world. They will either have a grey or a gold bar on the left of their flag in the country selection screen. Their manpower and military power are strong and their economy is very good. Tier V countries are major powers of the world. They usually have around 120,000 to 500,000 manpower cap.

You can tell which countries are Tier IV by a grey bar on the left of their flag in the country selection screen. Tier IV countries are usually regional powers (or minor powers) and have medium manpower and a decent economy. They also get a starting manpower amount of a little over 60000. Their stability, economy, and military production are increased and have a decent amount of money. Tier III countries are not weak, but they're not regional powers yet.

They are stronger than Tier I countries, and their taxes and economy are bigger. Tier II represents sort-of weak countries in the game. It is still possible to dominate the world with these countries, although its very hard and uncommon. With these countries, you can be conquered quickly by stronger powers. Tier I represents the weakest nations in the game, the maximum start manpower is 60 thousand.
