I try to take as many values from the vanilla game as possible, while adding new ones as little as possible, for maximum compatibility and to avoid bugs. Unfortunately, some game events are designed for the world of 1836, while I’m trying to make the world more reminiscent of the modern world. Therefore, I decided to create my own diaries and decisions for countries (in development. For now, the vanilla diaries and decisions are left).

What has already been done?
  • Borders approximate to modern ones
  • Population as it would be in the vanilla game (literacy and standard of living are not correct everywhere. (Example: Iceland has a high literacy rate and standard of living, it should be lower))
  • Buildings as they would be in the vanilla game (ports were added in some places to avoid province isolation (Example: a port was added on Sakhalin for Russia))
  • Laws were based on the territory in which the state is located or as close as possible (Example: Belarus has the same laws as Russia)
  • New countries added:
    Europe (Kosovo, North Macedonia, Andorra, Monaco, Liechtenstein, San Marino, Vatican, LPR, DPR, PMR)
    Caucasus (Abkhazia, South Ossetia)
    Middle East (Northern Cyprus, Qatar, Kuwait)
    Africa (Western Sahara, Mauritania, Senegal, Cape Verde, Gambia, Guinea-Bissau, Guinea, Mali, Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Togo, N***ria, N***r, Chad, Central African Republic, Cameroon, Sao Tome and Principe, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Democratic Republic of the Congo, South Sudan, Eritrea, Djibouti, Somalia, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Malawi, Mozambique, Zambia, Angola, Namibia, Botswana, Eswatini, Lesotho, Comoros, Seychelles, Mauritius)
    Asia (North Korea, South Korea,Singapore, Malaysia, East Timor)
    Oceania (Marshall Islands, Tuvalu, Samoa)
    America (Belize, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Antigua and Barbuda, Dominica, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Barbados, Grenada, Trinidad and Tobago, Guyana, Suriname)
What is planned?
  • Reworked provinces to more accurately reflect current borders
  • Adding new island-type states and Dwarf States
  • Country Rework
  • New Diplomatic Agreements to Reflect Modern Relationships between Countries
  • Changes and Additions of Power Blocks
  • New Decisions and Country Diaries
  • New Flags
  • New Formable Countries
Q&A
  • Does the mod change the graphics in the game?
    – No. The mod that does this: Empires of History: A Map Mod
    Settings as in the screenshots:
    Theme -> Paper Map -> Empires of History- Smooth / Regular
  • Is it possible to play with this mod already?
    – Overall, yes, in mod still has a lot of work to do, but it’s already playable.
  • What bugs might there be in the game? What should I be prepared for?
    – At the moment, there may be bugs with solutions from the vanilla game, and problems with localization.
