Primary Nations For All Cultures

Hello, and welcome to Primary Nations For All Cultures! This mod makes it so that every culture in the game has its own Primary Nation! This mod will be updated as new cultures/nations are added to the game. This mod is NOT ironman compatible as it adds new tags to the game.

Culture Groups are in bold with their changed cultures listed below. If a culture/culture group is not listed, then I did not add a Primary Nation.

1. Is this Ironman compatible?
   A: No.
2. What is a legacy culture?
   A: Legacy cultures are those that used to be in the game but no longer are. They are still present in the code, and you gain them as accepted if you become an Empire of their culture group, but you will never see a province or nation of that culture without modding the game or using console commands.
3. Where are the cores/nations?
   A: I didn’t edit any province history files. The new countries are Revolter Nations and can only get cores through rebellion/event. (No, I did not add any events.)
4. Do these new nations have unique idea sets?
   A: Not currently, although I may add some in the future.
5. Okay, but how could I play as one of these nations without forcing a rebellion?
   A: Activate the console and enter debug_mode to see province id’s. Then use “assimilate [<Province>] [<Tag>]” to spawn the nation there with its default culture/religion. You can also use “integrate [<Tag1>] [<Tag2>]” to have Tag2 take over Tag1 while keeping all of Tag1’s units, vassals and cores.
6. Is this compatible with X mod?
   A: I wouldn’t know. I don’t modify any base files besides culture (additively, I don’t replace the file). However, I do add new tags, and if any of those shares their unique name with another mod, it will cause a conflict.
7. Can I use this for X mod?
   A: Yes, so long as I am credited, I do not care what you use my mods for.
