You asked for it and here it is, a full presentation on the Nation Designer that's part of the upcoming ''El Dorado'' expansion. This Thursday we'll be sitting down with Wiz to create the nation of your dreams and/or nightmares.

Now we want to make things a bit more interesting, which is why we're going to challenge you to make suggestions on the nation we should create. Yes we're aware that you most likely know nothing about how the tool functions, but that's half the fun.
So, post your nation ideas in this thread. Where is it? What government form does it have? What is it called? ect. Obviously we'll mostly avoid suggestions that are on the more offensive side (those will prolly float about when it comes out anyway) but bonus points for particularly hilarious suggestions. (bonus points are like Reddit upvotes, they don't really get you anything)

Where?

http://www.twitch.tv/paradoxinteractive

When?

This Thursday (29th of January) at 18:00CET

Who?

Wiz and Matt

Government must be revolutionary empire, because nothing is more revolutionary and imperial than Ulm.

Farmership of Skåne, ruled by a Storbonde with a Scanian culture. -3 dip relations because of language.
The government form will be kind of hard since we probably need to script in a new government type.

Since this New Ulm cannot compare to the glory of real Ulm, I feel it only appropriate that it should be 'made in Taiwan'

Omsk. Russian culture, Nahuatl religion. Located in and around the Irtesh province (I think that's roughly where Omsk is anyway). I expect it to be perpetually "doomed" due to lack of vassals.

I like the idea.
The ideas should probably revolve around covert actions and aggression.

They will have some unique stuff in their ideas that incorperates the espionage ideas. Especially rumourmongering and destabilisation efforts are important ideas.

I already like this idea for a nation to play come the update.

A joke on Sicily and the Mafia, that originality, for some reason no one had ever thought.
