Error(s)/Problem(s): Reason

1. Kusunda or Nihali (language isolates in Nepal & India respectively): these are too small to warrant inclusion at this time.
2. Many many many more tribes in the Americas and Africa: In these cases not much is known about them or they are far too small, I will consider any people specifically request for inclusion.
3. Dividing out some of the would be isolates of Chimuan, Chumash, Cuiba, Lule, Araucanian, Brazil: this subdivides a culture far too much.
4. Greek Dialects, I would like to divide these, especially Tsakonian, but there aren't enough provinces in game to do so as of now, I may revisit this later.
5. Roumanian with Hungarian: I have left these together for cultural reasons, not linguistic, it is hard to divide Transylvanian.
6. Basque from Iberian: Basque is an isolate language, but it is culturally staunchly connected to the cultures of Iberia which it played a large influence in.
7. Catalan from Iberian: Catalan culture belongs with Iberian, and not with France.
8. Gothic from Continental Germanic: Too small to be reasonable. The reason it is not with Byzantine has to do with Crimean Gothic, and the fact that we don't know what extent the locals were brought up in Greek culture, the administration however was heavily Byzantine.
9. Various Caucasus: Honestly, I may actually divide this one later, but for now just think of it is a cultural group based on shared Caucasian traditions (and CHG dna haha), and not a linguistic group.
10. Dividing Italian in half: I may consider later, but the culture group is called Latin, so why for now divide it.
11. Albanian in Byzantine Cultures: They were a Byzantine client nation in many ways, and they have a culture not unlike Greeks of the North West, making a group for just Albanian seems unnecessary.
12. Comanche should not exist: If I make it so Comanche do not exist at all in 1444, they will not exist in people's games unless released, and that would be more a loss than removing them is a gain. Just imagine it to be a sub-band of the Paiute at this time, if I can make them a subject of the Shoshone later, I will.
13. Divide Khoisan: There are not enough provinces sadly to justify this.
14. Separate Cholonan, Culle, and Chimuan: I have considered separating the Cholonan languages/cultures from Chimuan, the reason I decided against this is the period of Pre-Chimuan domination of the Cholonan region from 100-700 C.E. and the linguistic similarities of the three, this warrants keeping them as one culture by the span of EU4's timeline.
15. Similar to 14 dividing out Mascoian from Chacoan, and separating Charruan from the family: I may consider this along with dividing out Mapuche from Araucanian later, but for now have not.
16. Divide Moseten from Het: May do this later, but it is only a one province language that is possibly related to Chonan.
17. Divide out isolates of Nambikwaran, Yanomamani, Katembri-Taruamá, and Warao: These were included due to cultural crossover with Carib-Arawak, which could also be divided, further divisions are to be considered later, I placed Yanomami and Katembri in the Tupi group due to trade reasons, I did consider an Amazonian Group for all of these except Warao, but the way it made the culture colours look on the globe had me change my mind. I may reconsider separation.
18. Divide Pueblo up, simply I haven't done this due to the lack of provinces on the map to make this feasible.
