Description

Supports Victoria 3: V1.8.3 (and onwards)
Mod Version: V1.2
Please consider rating this if you like it! It really helps out.
Originally made for: Version 1.7

This mod adjusts a number of starting conditions in ways that are still plausible interpretations of the historical state, to better enable some nations to perform successfully.


Changes by Country:
Denmark:
  • Starting laws changed to Agrarianism and Homesteading.
Netherlands:
  • Starting laws changed to Commercialized Agriculture.
  • Starting agriculture in the state of Holland mostly converted to capitalist ownership.
Portugal:
  • Starting laws changed to Wealth Voting, National Guard, & Public Schools.
  • Begins with the University of Coimbra.
Oman:
  • Omani Trucial Coast starts with an anchorage.
All Australian Colonies:
  • Starting laws variously changed to Agrarianism and Homesteading.
  • Romanticism technology unlocked from the start.

Inherited some elements from VTM:
  • Tweaks for Austria, China, France, Great Britain, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Quebec, Russia, & Spain (NOT the full Carlist rebellion)
  • State traits (+ regular difficult terrain now negated with nitroglycerin instead of dynamite).
I expect to add more things to this over time.


This is a pretty safe mod.
It will conflict slightly with anything changing these country's history files, but it should be harmless.


Why?
Agricultural reform was a big deal often overlooked in the study of this period. The new ownership mechanics make poor representation of the state at the time into a very impactful issue for some nations.

Is there a reference to say they should have it?

Could you give Greece line infantry?

Yeah I've been noticing in my first test run here that things are overlapping in slightly painful ways. It's on the to-do list to look into.

The idea of "Difficult Terrain" is to decouple the construction debuff from the State Traits like mountains and desserts from their others effects, so when you research Nitroglycerin or Dynamite those debuff are gone.
Currently the "Difficult Terrain" traits only make the construction debuff equal or worse at every point in the game.
