Countries with unique decisions[edit]

Decisions that are unique to specific countries are kept on the pages of those countries in order to prevent this page from becoming overly long. The list below excludes country formation decisions. Below is a list of all countries with unique decisions:

Formation decisions[edit]

Main article: Formable countries

Country formation decisions are kept on the pages of each formable country. All formable countries are listed below.

Formable countries[edit]

All of these formation decisions require that the game is using the historical setup.

Former colonial nations[edit]

The following nations can only be formed by former colonial nations who have achieved independence. Unlike other formable nations, these can be formed in games using the random setup. A country can only form one of these nations during a scenario. Except for Brazil, Canada, Mexico, Quebec, Texas, Alaska, Cascadia, Sonora, Australia, Zealandia, Vermont, West Indies and the United States, these nations don't have unique ideas or events, so the formation decisions are mostly cosmetic, although they usually provide prestige and permanent claims on their respective regions.

Reformable countries[edit]

The following nations exist at the 1444 start, but can be reformed by other nations if they cease to exist:

Indian Trade Company[edit]

id

Found Indian Trade Company

Our interest in an East India Company is based chiefly on hopes and ambitions aroused by the enormous revenues produced by the initial ventures of other companies. At the same time, there is also a desire upon the part of $MONARCH$ to play a dominant role in contemporary world trade, a desire that isn't necessarily wholeheartedly endorsed by our country's local merchants.

Liberum Veto[edit]

Institute Liberum Veto

Our nobility have come to us with an interesting proposal. If we were to grant them the Liberum Veto they would in return give us substantial support during the current war.

Standardized Uniforms

To the extent that uniforms are in use in our armies regiment commanders are often expected to provide and pay for them.

Potential requirements DLC Cradle of Civilization is active Does not have country modifier “Elite Regiments” or “Standardized Uniforms” Military technology is at least 19	Allow Army professionalism is at least 40%

State Firearm Regiments

While the technology is still in its infancy, firearms can be a deadly force on any battlefield. In order to be efficient, however, firearms require regular training and a steady supply of ammunition. For a regular levy army this level of proficiency can be hard to maintain. A soldier that has to go home to tend his fields is not one that will regularly exercise with his weapon. While we cannot change our entire army structure in one stroke we can ensure that a core of highly trained salaried troops specialize in these weapons.


Potential requirements DLC Cradle of Civilization is active Does not have country modifier “Elite Regiments” Military technology is less than 19	Allow Military technology is at least 6 Army professionalism is at least 20%

Effects Gain country modifier “Elite Regiments” for the rest of the game, giving the following effects: +40% Army drill gain modifier +15% Land maintenance modifier Set country flag `gunpowder_core_activated`
