Crimea is a Steppe Nomadic country, north of the Black Sea. It borders Moldavia in the west, Lithuania and the Great Horde in the north and east respectively, as well as Genoa, Theodoro, and Circassia in the south. Historically it was by far the longest lived Khanate in Europe, surviving until 1774.

Re-form the Golden Horde

Centuries ago our Great Father united our ancestors in their ancient homeland. He died leaving his sons to squabble and split his mighty empire into petty fiefs, small, weak and unworthy of his legacy! The disjointed remnants still sweep across the steppes instilling fear in the hearts of his enemies just like the Great Mongol army once did.
No more! A worthy people still carrying the banner of his legacy ride across these lands! While we now bow before a new God, the blood of Genghis Khan still flows through our veins. We are the Golden Horde and we are coming for what is rightfully ours!

Potential requirements

The country:

was never an end-game tag.
has a primary culture out of the Tatar group.
has enacted the ‘Steppe Nomads’ government reform.
has not enacted this decision before.
is not a colonial nation.

If the country is AI-controlled, then it:

can not be a custom nation.
can not be a former colonial nation.
must own at least 20 cities.

Allow

is not a subject nation other than a tributary state.
is not at war.
has at least 30 cities.

- Crimea (284), Tambov (302), Astrakhan (464), Nogai (465), Sarai (466), Kypshak (476), Tyumen (1075), Kazan (1082), Kasimov (1778) and Mansur (2411).
or its non-tributary subjects own:
- Tver (294), Moskva (295), Ryazan (301), Vladimir (307), Yaroslavl (308) and Suzdal (1956).

Effects

- Pontic Steppe, Nogai (area), Lower Yik, Bashkiria (area), Kazan (area), Samara, Ural (area), Ishim, Yrtesh, Ob and Kazakhstan.

- then all its provinces are removed from the HRE.
is not a custom nation
- then it gets the event ‘New Traditions & Ambitions’.
