Should you play Victoria 1 and 2 before Victoria 3?

Ultimately, you do not need to play Victoria 1 and 2 before the third entry in the Victoria series. However, both previous titles offer an exceptional strategic experience, especially Victoria 2. Additionally, while the gameplay is largely similar, some differences make playing the first two games before or after worth it.
