Colonial Administration Regions Expanded
"Colonial Administration Regions Expanded" turns the entire world into the same system you know from vanilla Victoria 3 — allowing you to transform regions across the globe into proper colonies with your culture and a flavor of your choosing.
This mod simply expands the existing colonial administration regions to span the entire world.
The criteria for creating colonial nations remain identical to vanilla, with one key exception:
• You can avoid ceding specific states to the new colonial country by keeping them incorporated
• Alternatively, you can temporarily incorporate states you want to retain
• You may cancel incorporation immediately afterward if you only wanted to prevent cession
This also helps prevent situations where Russia sets up a colonial administration in its eastern territories, as those states are typically incorporated by the time the Civilizing Mission technology is unlocked.
I quite liked the idea of setting up properly settled colonies in the Americas or even Asia without having to administer them directly myself, while still getting the same cultural benefits that subjects like the Dutch East Indies or British India provide. It also means those semi-wanted overseas states no longer show up in my build filter, keeping things cleaner and easier to manage.
