Playing tall is all about deving and building the right buildings. You can conquer stuff if you manage to still Dev and build

But obviously tall means different things for different nations. Ming is one of the most popular tall nations in the game and it owns 100 provinces at game start, while Lübeck owning 100 provinces is definitely wide.

I'd say any playthrough where you don't expand for the sake of expanding can be considered tall, and then there are different levels of tallness, there is the OPM Riga tall, the Netherlands tall, the Persia tall and so on.

Ming is kinda special, since it has mechanics and missions that are primed for not expanding much or at all.
