Bookmarks Galore: Extended Timeline
This mod adds 39 more bookmarks for the Extended Timeline mod, along with some additional historical wars, events and modifiers that trigger when playing a specific bookmark.
Also includes an Event for start dates before 58 AD which removes the bugged terra incognita on game start.
————————————————————-
Do you want your start menu to be unnecessarily crowded with bookmarks? Do you like scrolling through a bunch of start dates you’ll probably never play? If you answered "yes," then you’re in luck.
The intention of this mod is to provide the player with interesting nations that would not be available through the base mod’s bookmarks, and for those who don’t want to spend the time manually scrolling through the dates in the start menu. (Also because I wasted time making this for myself… might as well share it.)
Certain bookmarks will trigger special wars, truces, alliances, etc. at the start of the game as well. Certain historical modifiers also trigger, but only when starting from a bookmark.
These modifiers are used for historical accuracy and balancing. For example, in the Goguryeo-Sui War, Sui has a modifier that represents their logisticial setbacks, nerfing them for the duration of the war while still posing a great challenge to Goguryeo.

**Note: This must be used with the main Extended Timeline mod. It should be compatible with any other mod, as the bookmarks will still be selectable even if history files are overwritten.
***Also Note: There is a bug (at least I think it’s a bug) in which wars in bookmarks sometimes end right when the game starts. I was not able to solve this, so unfortunately some wars will not trigger upon game start, and it is beyond my control.

This mod also serves as a good companion for my other mod, More Missions: Extended Timeline, as many of the mission trees in that mod are for countries not in the base ET’s bookmarks:
