For the area, see Thuringia (area).

Thuringia is a country in northern Germany starting the game in a personal union under Saxony. Thuringia is fully independent from 1485 and onwards (except between the years of 1573 and 1586 when they are a vassal under Saxony) and takes Saxony's place as elector within the Holy Roman Empire between the 1464 and 1547 start dates. Thuringia borders Saxony, Bohemia, Bayreuth, Bamberg, Wurzburg, Hesse, Brunswick and Goslar.

Decisions[edit | edit source]

As country with Saxon primary culture Thuringia is able to form both Prussia and Saxony.

id

Form Saxony

The Duchy of Saxony has passed hands between dynasties and even shifted territory considerably over the centuries. Perhaps we too should lay claim to it?

Potential requirements

The country:

was never an end-game nation.
was never a German regional nation.
has not enacted this decision before.
is not a colonial nation.
is not Brandenburg or Saxony.
has Saxon primary culture, or is Saxe-Lauenburg.

If the country is AI-controlled, it:

is not a custom nation
is not a former colonial nation.

Playing with normal or historical nations.

Allow

Saxony does not exist.
The country:

is not a subject nation other than a tributary state.
is not at war.
owns core provinces:
- Wittenberg
- Dresden or Leipzig.
owns at least 6 core provinces in the areas Saxony, Thuringia, and Saxony-Anhalt.

Effects

The country:

becomes Saxony.
gains 25 prestige.
gets new missions, unless it was Thuringia.
gets the event “New Traditions & Ambitions”, unless it is a custom nation.
gets permanent claims on all unowned provinces in:
- Saxony area
- Thuringia area
- Saxony-Anhalt area
gets “Increased Centralization” for 20 years, giving:
- −0.05 monthly autonomy change,
- +1 national unrest.

has not formed Prussia before
has Pomeranian, Saxon or Prussian as primary culture

is not a theocracy
does not have the 'Celestial Empire' government reform
