Since Lucca's primary culture is Tuscan, Lucca has the ability to form Tuscany.

Form Tuscany

Not since the days of the Margraviate of Tuscany has a single power controlled as much of the the Tuscan lands as we do. Let us adopt a new title to better reflect our new standing among the states of Italy.

Potential requirements

The country:

was never an end-game tag.
is not Tuscany, The Papal State, Holy Roman Empire, Roman Empire or Italy.
has Tuscan as primary culture.
is not a colonial nation.
has not enacted this decision before.

If the country is AI-controlled, then:

it can not be a custom nation.
it can not be a former colonial nation.
it must have at least 5 cities.

Allow

Tuscany does not exist.
The country

has an administrative technology of at least 10.
is not a subject nation other than a tributary state.
is not a nomad nation.
is not at war.
owns its core provinces:
- Arezzo (2978).
- Firenze (116).
- Pisa (115).
- Siena (117) or Lucca (2980).

- then it gets the event ‘New Traditions & Ambitions’.

id

Form Italian Nation

As the heart of the Renaissance, our nation is blossoming culturally. We have just entered the beginning of what looks like a prolonged artistic rebellion, especially in the field of architecture and literature. The cultural evolution is not aiding our country in maintaining peace within our borders however. Our country is continuously stricken by foreign states seeking power and territorial gain.

Potential requirements

Italy does not exist.

The country:

was never an end-game tag.
has a primary culture in the Latin culture group.
is not a colonial nation.

If the country is AI-controlled then it:

can not be a former colonial nation.
must own at least 15 cities.

is not a subject nation other than a tributary state.
is not at war.
owns at least 20 core provinces in Italy (region) including
- Genoa (101), Milan (104), Firenze (116) and Roma (118).

Effects

If the country:

is a member of the Holy Roman Empire but not the emperor or an elector then:
- all its provinces are removed from the HRE.
- the emperor gets the event ‘Italy breaks out of the Empire’.
- the emperor gets the opinion modifier ‘Left the Holy Roman Empire’ towards the country, worth −150 opinion with a yearly decay of 1.

The country:

becomes Italy.
moves its capital to Roma (118).
gets a permanent claim on every province in Italy (region) that it does not own.
gains 25 prestige.
