Wiz posted:By the way, when complaining that colonization is too fast, try to mind that a lot of the territory that shows as colonized on the map is still just colonies, not cities. Also the new world is setup to be discovered around 1450 in this timeline, as opposed to 1492. There's no specific historical reason that the discovery of America could only happen in 1492. Besides, by 1550 OTL most of the non-rainforest parts of southamerica were explored and claimed in the name of the spanish king

You said that Cherokee had modernized. If so, how did the Creek manage to take so much of their land? How much of India is still Hindu? Does Mughal still have a Hindu minority? What's the light purple country nestled between French Britain, Gascony, and Burgundy? And why on earth hasn't Qurighar conquered Kazakh yet?

The only Muslim state in India is Mughals, so all of it except the Mughal bits. Mughals still have a significant Hindu minority. Anjou. EU3 AI.

Here are close-ups of China and Japan + some bonus shots of New World. Don't mind "Nya Skåne", it was named before I added some better names for Norwegian colonies. Already renamed it in the save. Wiz fucked around with this message at 19:47 on Oct 7, 2011 |

Is Armenian in our cultural group and how does cultural/religious conversion work and how long will it take due to our tolerant nature?

Rejected Fate posted:Is Armenian in our cultural group and how does cultural/religious conversion work and how long will it take due to our tolerant nature? No, they're in the Byzantine group. Culture conversion will be incredibly slow because of our tolerant NIs, I doubt we'll convert more than a province or two max unless we use settlement policies. Religious conversion doesn't happen on its own and we can't use missionaries because we're too innovative to get any. On the other hand, if we get Ecumenism and LEF and a conmon, there won't really be a point to converting anyone. vv Oh yeah, I forgot about that. Culture conversion is basically not gonna happen unless we settlement policy then.

Rejected Fate posted:Is Armenian in our cultural group and how does cultural/religious conversion work and how long will it take due to our tolerant nature? Armenian is in the Byzantine Group with Greek and Georgian. There is no cultural conversion for wrong religion provinces and we can't convert people because we have no missionaries for being on the Innovative side of the Innovative-Narrowminded scale EDIT: But all of this depends on Wiz not changing vanilla mechanics, which he did.

Culture conversion is largely the same as vanilla, only slower and the superfast melting pots are not so superfast.

Nice to see that we're guaranteeing Quirghar. If Russia and Quirgahr ever get into a war you know what side you're supposed to enter in on. Also hoping the Cherokee last on until Victoria and forever. And that they develop a Shia Mormon religion in Victoria 2

I dunno about the Holland-Dutch names for colonies, the Netherlands in this LP did form out of Flanders, which has the same language but a different use of words. On the other hand, Flanders/Belgium never really colonized outside of Belgian Congo, so coming up with names would be pretty hard.

nimby posted:I dunno about the Holland-Dutch names for colonies, the Netherlands in this LP did form out of Flanders, which has the same language but a different use of words. I think some people are approaching this rather anachronistically. Flanders refers strictly and exclusively to the actual county of Flanders in this timeline, since the rift between the Southern and the Northern Netherlands never occurred. While West-Flemish colony names could potentially be hilarious, we should just use general Dutch nomenclature with perhaps a focus on Flemish place names such as Bruges and Ghent.

Meh, knowing us Flemish/Belgians it'd all just be "Nieuw-Vlaanderen" and "Vlaamsch Amerika". Phlegmish, there's going to be some divide at least, Flanders was independent for a few centuries and fought/conquered the other Dutch nations. There's even a similar religious divide (although it's not christian/protestant). Anyway, I'm terrible at alt-history and will let you guys get on with the show

I'm hoping at the very least the Mughals are able to stand against any colonialists in their areas, although I've no idea how Indian nations fare in colonialism in Paradox game or if Wizmod will give them a better chance. I wonder how the Mughal sliders are, though. From what little I know of the Mughals OTL the impression I get is that they were a pretty brutal regime. What do their sliders indicate about this timeline's Mughals?

I think in real life it was actually Brabant rather than Flanders that was dominant both economically and lingustically at this point in history. There is no reason for Holland, on the other hand, to ever develop beyond the relative backwater that it was during the Middle Ages. In any case, though it might not make much sense, I don't think anyone will be mortally offended if this LP's Netherlands is inspired by today's Northern Netherlands for simplicity's sake. It's just fun to sperge about.

What do their sliders indicate about this timeline's Mughals? The IRL Mughals were actually pretty remarkably tolerant of Hinduism (especially compared to previous Islamic states in India), but they were also highly militaristic. So...you can go either way there.

Kainser posted:The obvious religious divide and the fact that most trade and capital flows through the recently conquered Friesland. Today's religious divide is nothing more than the result of the outcome of the Eighty Years' War. Flanders and Brabant (particularly Antwerp) were hotbeds of Protestantism, first Lutheranism and later Calvinism. In fact, the Iconoclastic Fury (Beeldenstorm) in which churches were sacked and Catholic imagery destroyed started in Steenvoorde, which is in modern-day French Flanders, and spread throughout the rest of the Netherlands from there. On the other hand, it is true that in the Dutch Republic Noord-Brabant and Nederlands-Limburg remained principally Catholic. I wonder how that came to be.
