As the title says, the Korean mission 'Restore Goguryeo', should actually let Korea change tags to Goguryeo.
Now in the past this argument was rebutted by how Goguryeo didn't fit the game's timeline and how unrealistic it was, but now that we can reform Aksum, Lotharingia, Nubia (which I assume is the Kushite Kingdom), and Israel, I think it's time we finally leave that refutation behind us.
A lot of Korea players already tag-swap to Manchu or Japan for the better idea set + getting rid of the whole bunch of estate disaster events you have no agency in escaping, I think it's fair enough to give Korea its own formable, especially when one of its missions explicitly refers to restoring an old Empire.
Right now the mission itself has the following requirements and rewards
Instead, the mission should look something like this,
The event 'The Restoration of Goguryeo' would be something like this,
"Rejoice! For we have united not only the Korean peninsula but our ancestral lands in Manchuria. As #KINGNAME sits upon #HIS/HER throne in #CAPITAlPROVINCE, #HIS/HER subjects urge #HIM/HER to claim the mantle of the Goguryeo Empire, lest we lose our hold on our rightful land again. What shall #KINGNAME do?"
We are the descendants of Goguryeo.
Country changes to Goguryeo
Move Capital to Pyeongyang (#1845)
We will found our own legacy.
Korea gains 10 prestige
The Goguryeo idea set would look something like this
The main theme of the idea set is a balance between the historically militaristic society of the nation and small references to its historical culture. The Goguryeo economy is going to be slightly smaller than the Korean one though (as was in history), due to losing the 10% tax, +25% domestic trade power and the -10% construction cost that Korea has.
I also saw fit that a few provinces be renamed when you form Goguryeo. These are the two former capitals — Gungnae and Jang'an — and the border forts that marked the boundaries of Goguryeo's historical extent — Chaekseong, Wiryeseong, Sukgunseong, Dangseong and Hyundoseong.

Traditions |
| |
The Three Kingdoms United | Divided, the Three Kingdoms of Korea were weak, and lost their grip over the Manchurian lands to the North. Now that we have united both the Korean peninsula and the Manchurian plains, no force shall stop us. |
|
The Legacy of Gwanggaeto the Great | Gwanggaeto the Great, the 19th king of Goguryeo, left a legendary legacy of conquest that lasted throughout the ages. Whilst the Korean people have long suffered from piracy in the South and nomaidc raids in the North, they have not yet forgotten those times of glory. Now that we have the power to do so, it is time to rise again. |
|
A Multi-cultural Empire | Goguryeo was no monoethnic empire. Various northern tribes, called the Yemeks and the Malgals by the Koreans, were an integral part of Goguryeo's society. Now that we have brought the Manchurian peoples back under our fold, it is perhaps it would be advantageous for us to fully accept them as our own. |
|
Maintaining the Balance of Power | While Goguryeo's power was based in its military strength, it also relied heavily on balancing the power between its Chinese and Southern Korean neighbours to maintain the stability of the region, and collapsed when they failed to keep that balance. It is paramount that we always remember the lessons that we have learnt from our ancestors, so that we do not fall the way that they did. |
|
Reorganise the Five States | The vast lands of Goguryeo are dotted with high mountains and swift rivers, complicating our administration. Let us reorganise the five ancient states to bring order to our nation again. |
|
Mountain People | The Goguryeo people originated in the mountainous highlands of Northern Korea, and have managed to survive off what most would find impossible. Now that we have united the flatlands of both Manchuria and Southern Korea, we shall thrive as never seen before. |
|
Lessons of the Battle of Salsu | The Battle of Salsu — the Killing River — was one that was won with a mix of both tactical genius and military might. Many remember our martial prowess to this day. |
