Description:

ATTENTION!
This mod is not compatible with the latest update accompanying All Under Heaven.
If you wish to keep playing with the mod, please revert to patch 1.15 Crown.

Belgica & Italia Magnifica is a preview of my larger work-in-progress project Europa Magnifica, whichs aims to revamp the entire map of Europe and surrounding to a far more granular and historically accurate level. This project also aims to provide a more immersive and historical experience. I decided to release this preview to garner more interest for the mod and perhaps recruit some people who would like to help this project a reality.

For a full list of features and changes see the tDiscord server.

Hundreds of new provinces in the Low Countries and Italy
Hundreds of new counties in the Low Countries and Italy
New duchies in the Low Countries and Italy
Split of the Cisalpine and Italian cultures into regional ones
Dozens of new historical families and rulers to play as
Some families have had their family tree expanded
New bookmarks for the Low Countries and Italy
Some new regional innovations and a tradition
Dozens of unique special and historical buildings, many with several stages and some even have unique icons for each stage
Expanded name list for the Dutch culture, with many new given namesa and hundreds new dynasty names
Greatly expanded dynasty name lists for all Italian cultures (Tuscan for example has over 5000 historical dynasty names)
Italian cultures other than Tuscan, Umbrian and Roman now use names in the local language as opposed to modern Italian (Emilian-Romagnol currently still uses Italian names due to an absence of sources)
Unique coats of arms for many new titles and historical dynasties
Flavorization for some titles
A few new decisions and events
Lots of new rivers across the map
A few terrain changes, like adding farmlands, forests and a lake
Dozens of new historical characters which can spawn in the Netherlands and Italy, most of whom (if applicable) will write the historical literature artifact they wrote in real-life. Vanilla historical characters who spawn in Italy also write a historical literature artifact.
Cultural name flavorizations for Italy and the Netherlands (mostly for relevant cultures)
Playable 1066 and 1178 startdates (the 867 startdate is technically playable, but not recommended due to lack of historical rulers currently)
The ability to borrow money in the form of loans (unlocked when the Gran Tavola spawns in 1230)

As this mod modifiers a lot of basegame files, it is incompatible with a lot of mods which also do that. The mod is automatically incompatible with any mod which adds provinces or modifiers the map.

The following mods are known to be compatible without compatches:

Advanced Character Search
Better Barbershop
Invite Debutantes
Knight Manager
Search and Trade Artifacts
VIET Events

The following mods are integrated into the main mod:

better camera zoom
Matched Eyebrow and Body Hair Colors (only if using CFP & EPE compatch)

The following mods have compatibility patches:

Community Flavor Pack & Ethnicities and Portraits Expanded (you MUST use both mods in conjunction with the compatch)
More Holding Graphics
Community Flavor Pack & Ethnicities and Portraits Expanded & More Holding Graphics (also need both of the above compatches)
The Catholic Trinity
Patrum Scuta
Holy Roman Triumph: Coronation Ceremonies
More Interactive Vassals
More Game Rules

I recommend all of these mods to increase immersion, especially the Catholic Trinity, which introduces Papal and Investiture mechanics.

ATTENTION!
This is very important! If using any of the compatches, please use the following load order (omit those not in use).
Not following the load order may result in crashes, errors or bugs.
