Colonization Restriction
This mod rebalances colonization by limiting access to most of Africa and Oceania, while preserving historically known and explored regions.
Features:
- Most of Africa and Oceania are no longer available for colonization (they’ve been made impassable)
- Key island regions, as well as select coastal footholds, remain open:
the Azores
Madeira
the Canary Islands
Cape Verde
Fernando Pó and São Tomé
Mauritius and Réunion
the Cape of Good Hope
some coastal areas of modern Guinea, Ghana and Angola
- Prevents unrealistic early land grabs deep within continents that were largely colonized only in the 19th and 20th centuries
Compatible with most mods that do not alter the map’s composition.
