Pretty neat, but please change Austria to white, it looks... too prussian.

Wow. Just amazing how it looks in game with all the additional artwork added to the base file we provided with Clio.

The graphic art people deserve major kudos on their work.

Just wondering, but why does Fiume not have a port? It looks great otherwise!

For the mapmodes, is that a literacy mapmode I spy?

You might be right, I was thinking plurality first, but it might just be consciousness.

Few questions... what is

The story with Scandinavian soldiers in 1836? come off it lads
The brain in the population tab? A leadership system, methinks...
The star in the diplomacy tab?
The artillery in the military tab?

My guesses would be:

Average consciousness of your POPs
Not sure.
Maybe we need reserves for artillery now as well?

The star might be prestigem artillery might be stored artillery from the world market so it is easier to see, it might also be how many brigades with artillery you currently posses, the star might be prestige?

Seems to be a Sardinian Monarchy flag there. Guess its supposed to use the default flag instead.

just noticed, Lake Balaton is named, when I was making the Clio map I wasn't expecting lakes to be nameable, and so had all lakes in the map be one generalized lake province, so there is a change that Paradox has made, since province names on map in EU3 and HoI3 have to be tied to unique province ID numbers AFAIK.

I Like it.

Though I did notice the compass on the mini map is the wrong way round.
