The Age of Discovery, and Trout - EU4 Interactive
 

So here's the idea. Using EU4's custom nation builder, people can sign up, create their own country, and I will sim the world, and see what happens. You don't really have to do anything past signing up and creating your country - just follow and talk trash, basically.

I'm trying to find somewhere that has a neat, orderly list of national ideas to pick from. Right now, the best I have is this.

National ideas - Europa Universalis 4 Wiki

Note, many of them are country based, but do exactly the same thing. There's no consolidated list I can find. When selecting, please just tell me the bonus, not the name of it.

So, here's what I need from people. This is subject to change if something doesn't work out right.

1) Country Name
2) Country Adjective
3) Culture
4) Religion
5) Starting Location
6) Desired Size (One province, small, medium, large)
7) Nation map color/flag design (give me a description on flag, I'll get it as close as the game has available)

Culture list can be found at Culture - Europa Univikel8ersalis 4 Wiki
Religion list can be found at Religions and denominations - Europa Universalis 4 Wiki

For desired size, I'm going to spend whatever points I have left after selecting your ideas, and give you what I can. Basically, consider small to be about 2-5 provinces, medium 5-10, large 10+. It depends on how many points I have leftover (and if you want a lot of provinces, your idea bonuses will likely be smaller than those who spent less points on provinces). It's just easier this way.

For desired location, just tell me where you want to be. First come first serve, though if people want to be in the same area, they'll be neighbors. Entire world is acceptable. For those that know the game, your technology group will be whatever is 'normal' for the region you are in.

Any questions, ask away. I know the rules are vague, but we'll make it work.

edit: Oh, right ideas.

Pick 10.

2 you start with.

The remaining 8 you will gain over time, in the order you tell me.

Placeholder for Nations.

This seems cool....

1) Country Name Rivalsland
2) Country Adjective ????
3) Culture Dutch
4) Religion Protestant
5) Starting Location northern Germany
6) Desired Size (One province, small, medium, large) Medium
7) Nation map color/flag design (give me a description on flag, I'll get it as close as the game has available) Yellow with three horizontal black stars

Ideas--not sure how these work....

Adjective means like....Rivalslandian.

Real examples are like...Denmark would be Danish, England - English, etc.
