First set of events for Lorraine, Calais, Picardie, Lyon, Caux, Paris. I haven't used them yet so there are probably a million errors. Just posting them in case anyone wants to comment.

Yeah I thought I would put it in as it would create a nicer blob rather than a snake and there could always be events for it to convert back to French culture. I don't really like the core on Berri as I feel that is more in Brittany's sphere of influence whilst Savoy has the south (Lyon I can make an exception for as its not a capital province)

Here is another event:

1. Great start. Congratulations on producing your first events for Interregnum. I just hope they are not your last.

2. Axe the provincetax changes. I don't think it is important. Otherwise make them smaller, and not a net gain. +2 and -2.

3. You need also to have events that switch the cultures back to French or german if they are subsequently conquered by someone other than Burgundy (who, it doesn't matter).
 
For the Burgundian expansion event, I am not so sure.

We already have the core gaining events, which should cover the natural acceptance of those gains.

I have seen this kind of event a lot from first time designers. I mean no disrespect or condescension here. There is an understandable tendency to see the nation expand but it needs to be remembered what a core is. A core is not what a country feels it ought to own (for whatever geopolitical or cultural reasons) but what other nations recognize as being your legitimate domain. That's why the core mgives you a CB and -1BB if you take the province, because your neighbours go, "Well, it should be theirs, after all. Their claim IS legitimate."

Now, if Burgundy decides to form Lotharingia, through some tortured historical hyperbole, this would grant it cores, because if the Kingdom is accepted then its historical territory is part of the recognition package.
 
In all honest Lombardy, has a claim to the kingdom of Lotharingia, not Burgundy. The only reason Burgundy tried to form it was, that it owned the Netherlands, and a few other territories, that belonged to Lotharingia, if you go by a map, Swabia has more territory in line.

Fair enough, but I mainly meant this as an example of a mass-core-gaining event that could be justified.
 
I wasn't clear.

I meant it as a hypothetical example. In hindsight, it would have been better to choose one that was appropriate, but I wanted to use Burgundy in the example.
 
In terms of the greater Burgundy event I could change it so that you don't get cores on Caux, Paris and Lyon or Artois. I think the core on Alsace might be justified as Burgundy as either they are likely to have owned the province for some time or if not then its there to provoke a war with Swabia who would probably be the most annoyed with Burgundy claiming ownership of provinces in the east.

Swabia could have their own event that follows the Greater Burgundy event which gives them a core on Lorraine if they own Alsace.

I'll do more edits tonight.
 
I feel the idea of Burgundian culture is that it isn't simply meant to be for French speaking provinces otherwise it becomes pointless. Essentially its a way of Burgundy to expand east rather than west without giving it German culture which would be even more problematic.

I will change the event though so that you don't get a core on Alsace. Possibly that could be granted in a separate event chain if Burgundy choose to challenge Swabia.

Burgundy has no valid claim to the territories in germany, or the netherlands. In this timeline, so it's really hard to justify that any territories that aren't french, would ever gain burgundian culture. Border-line german provinces like Lorraine are plausible. Even though, I have issues with Lorraine being 'french', in this time line.
 
Here are all the events together. They replace the existing Burgundian culture events (Not the Dutch culture events) I accidentally used the same IDs as the next set of events so it now skips round them. I haven't actually played them out yet however they do now compile:

Burgundy gets cores and culture benefits in the Dutch provinces through the extension of the laws and as part of accepting reformed and protestant faiths. It is predicated on post-1419 events, not on any historical claim.

Lorraine and Alsace can be gained as cores through the events in which they are offered for sale by Swabia. Again, not a historically-based claim.

Lorraine will be changed to German culture.
 
The events above go below the Dutch events. If Burgundy did gain Dutch culture (has to conquer Zeeland and Holland) and the Greater Burgundy flag is set then I was thinking there could be some culture conflict events in the early 1700s that could lead to losing Dutch culture or a loss of centralisation.

I've removed the core events.

I've changed the Lorraine switch back event to be German rather than French.
 
Anyone know which file has the event:

Humanism not Heretical

which is related to a university in Paris and whether to keep it open or not. It just fired twice. So far the culture initialisation events have worked fine.
