The Great Collapse (0.2.2)

This mod starts in the year 2666.
In the year 2389, the Great Collapse happened. Essentially this was a very large-scale war that tore humanity apart. While not primarily a nuclear war, nuclear bombs/missiles were used in some areas. Currently the only cities that I have set as nuked are Shanghai, Mecca, and Lisbon. Other cities were mostly destroyed in the war, known as "Ruined Cities". Currently the only ones are Constantinople, Beijing, London, and Paris.
All of the world's governments fell either during the war or shortly after, causing widespread fear and vulnerability among the people. They turned to new gods, worshiped lands or past leaders. The first 200 years (fewer for some areas) were complete chaos, with everyone having an "every man for himself" mentality. Following that, societies finally started to reform. People started seeing themselves as part of something bigger, something greater.
Finally, in 2666, where the game comes in, most (if not all) societies have taken their places. The road ahead will be an unstable and difficult one, but it will prove which of these societies belong in the world and which ones belong only in history books.

***This mod is compatible with EU4 1.19.***

A note about 0.2.2: This mod fixes a few bugs and makes a few adjustments. I also added a few tags to Indochina but the area is still nowhere near playable. The main focuses of this update were to make what I thought were some much-needed adjustments to Korea, and further prepare the mod for transitioning into EU4 1.20, which you can probably guess will be huge for this mod. That'll bring us into 0.3.

And anyone else I forgot to add, thank you!

I desperately need more ideas for new nations of all sizes and regions, so any ideas whatsoever are greatly appreciated and credit will be given for tags, decisions, events, national ideas, etc.

As a final note: This mod is in beta. Any bugs you find are to be expected but should be reported to me so I can fix them. Thank you for using my mod!
