Details

The mod entirely works via decisions on the map or in the decisions menu.

Spreading the european spirit

The diplomatic formation and expansion relies on a unique spirit that can be spread to neighboring countries via a decision on the map. The current distribution of the spirit can be seen via a special map mode.

Formation
To form the EU you now need to meet a certain number of the below criteria:

  • Control Germany
  • Control France
  • Control Italy
  • Control Benelux
  • Control Iberia
  • Control the nordic countries (Norway, Sweden, Finnland)
  • Control Danubia (Austria, Checkoslovakia, Hungary)
  • Control the Balkans (Yugoslavia, Albania, Greece)
  • Control the Baltics (Estland, Lettland, Latvia)
  • More regions that I have forgotten
  • Having allies with european spirit, although they need to agree
  • Other countries having european spirits, although they need to agree

Control of these regions can be checked via a special map mode. A demoractic nation does not need to control these regions themselfs, having allies control them is sufficient. For non-democratic nations direct control or indirect control via a subjectr is required.

How many of these criteria have to be met, can be customized via game rule.

Unification

Countries that agree to unionize transfer all their units, leaders, advisors and technologies to the union.

Further, countries that agree to unionize will change tag to the union. This applies to multiplayer games, so two or more players can start out as different countries and then agree to unify into a single one

Expansion

Once formed, you can still spread the european spirit and expand the european union.

Diplomatic expansion happens in three steps

  • Faction member (You get a decision on the map for this, but having them join via other means also works)
  • Puppet them (Again, decision or other means)
  • Annex them (decision on the map or subject window)

During all of this the AI may reject your proposals.

Hostile ideologies cannot diplomatically join the union on their own. For this you can influence their politics (more decisions) and eventually threaten a civil war in their country.

You will also be able to core european territory once you have reached high enough compliance.

Improving your country

Forming the EU will initially debuf you and require you to spend some political power in order to stabilize the country.

Once that is done, you will be able to take unique decisions to improve the union in multiple fields. Some of these buffs will improve on their when the union grows.

There also is a the "European Council", a custom country leader that can be put into power.

Focus Tree

The mod has a unique focus tree for the EU, containing focuses related military, industry and politics. The focus tree is activated via a decision. This avoids issues where loosing your countries focus tree may mean that you are stuck with debuffs or other adverse effects. It also means that you can use your countries original focus tree to get all the buffs, wargoals and whatever else you want and then switch to the european tree afterwards. Of course you can also switch to the europea tree right away if you want.




Compatibility

The entire mod works via its own decisions and doesnt modify any vanilla files.

It relies on `is_on_continent = europe` and `region = 129`(asia minor/anatolia) as well country TAGs, meaning it also works with map mods. As long as another mod doesnt change those, it will *work*. Of course forming the EU may break other mods event chains/focuses.

Its set to load after all big relevant conversions (Kaiserreich/redux, great war, ...). It *should* work with those mods, although there may be some issues. Obviously forming the EU may severly break e.g. Kaiserreichs custom decision/event based peace deals.

I have explicitly tested with Road to 56.

There should also be a hidden focus that shows up when youve conquered the world coring like every state or smth and chaning the name to "Global Union" or something and giving a massive buff

fnyb3rg 12 Mar @ 11:00am 
great mod but i really dont like the non aligned flag so could you possibly add a decision to change between all of the flags?
