Paradox has released new screenshots from "Europa Universalis III," giving viewers a look at the upcoming real-time strategy game.

"Europa Universalis III takes the player on an intense ride where exploration, colonization, trade and diplomacy take center stage. While the game is vast and deep enough for players to immerse themselves in any number of personal quests, the building of one dominant empire seems to be the overall most popular ambition.

Paradox Interactive has collected a few of the most telling screenshots of attempts to conquer the world and show just how players can forever alter world history."
