So everyonce in awhile someone talks about turning there colonies into states this is possible as long as your nation is European......

Many nations have there culture set where they cannot migrate outside of there continent the worst offense is the USA. However while the US cant migrate out Japan can it seems like a weird nerf to the US for reason I cant think of.

If you go into the culture text file in he commons part of the folder you will see
american_cultures = {
leader = european
is_overseas = no
yankee = {

You cannot turn over seas colonies into states with these nations because of this unfortunately.

Easy fix is to set this to yes or delete the is_overseas = no because this line only appears for nations who aren't allowed to do it. For example the UK it doesn't say yes it just wouldn't be there at all.
