Vanilla: Cultural Melting Pots | Empires of Conquest

Play as an Italian count and work your way up to become Emperor of Western Rome, or crusade in Egypt and Jerusalem and claim control over the Alexandrine Empire! Spend vast amounts of money educating your child in the customs of the Emperors of old, and recreate Roman culture for a new age!

This mod adds a culture merging mechanic to various ahistorical and historical events, such as the Angevin Empire, a possible English incursion into Spain, and the Turks in Persia/Iran. It also adds the ability to found the Alexandrine Empire and Western Roman Empire, as well as giving the player the oppertunity to educate their children in Medieval Roman so as to truly recreate the glory of the old Roman Empire.

Suggestions for how to expand and improve the mod are greatly appreciated, so feel free to start discussions or comment below on possible new melting pots.

This version of the mod does not require CK2Plus or HIP, an alternative version requiring the Historical Immersion Project can be found here, and another variant that requires CK2Plus can be found here.

NOTE: that Culture X + Culture Y >>> Culture Z with X being the ruling class (e.g. the Norse in early Normandy), Y is the peasantry (e.g. the French in early Normandy), and Z is the resultant culture(s) (e.g. the Normans in early Normandy).

This variant of the mod is more work-in-progress than its counterparts, and any updates may take relatively longer to be produced.
