Improved and Historical Institutions
This mod changes institutions. Very little is changed; however, I fine-tuned embracement speed and embracement restrictions. They are now more logical and historical. The Manufactories institution requires a manufactory-building to embrace, the Industrialization institution requires a factory-building to embrace, the Enlightenment institution requires at least a university, and lastly, the Feudalism institution requires the nation-state to not have a tribal-government. Now, we will explore the embracement speed changes.
All embracement speeds modifiers have had an additional negative-applied depending on technology groups: Eastern is -1, Anatolian is -1.5, Muslim is -2, West-African is -4, Indian is -3, Chinese is -4, and Central-African and Nomad groups have -5. This is applied to model cultural and societal differences for technology spread, and the restrictions are added for logical reasons. Why can a tribal-horde adopt the feudal-institution as a tribal government? However, I wanted to allow players and the AI an opportunity to work towards adopting it. Everything else is unchanged. Now, we will explore the mod-incompatibilities with other mods.
This mod only changes institutions, so any mod that does not alter or change tags related to that file is compatible. Now, we will explore the various updates.
Republic Update: two new modifier additions to embracement-speed; now, a republic government-type adds a 1, and a theocracy government-type adds a -1.
Innovativeness and Humanist Update: three new modifier additions to embracement-speed; now, a complete Innovativeness-idea group adds a 1 (except for the Enlightenment institution because it already references this idea group), a complete Humanist-idea group adds a 0.5, and having 50 or higher innovativeness adds a 0.5 (for those that own Rule Britannia).
Cyprus and Ottoman Update: Cyprus has received a nerf for institution spread (until the manufactories institution). The Ottoman technology-group has received a buff from 1.5 to 1.2. Lastly, this mod has been updated for the new institutions mechanic.
