This concerns current chin states and also some that I think should be added

Kale (Created by the Shan it served as a chin political entity in vassalage to other powers so it should exist as a tag as it would help better show the political aspect of this region.)

Traditions
-10% Land attrition (Harsh country tough people)
-10% Army maintenance (Largely tribal most of the population was most likely made up of part time warriors making it less costly to maintain an army)

Upon steep hills
The hills make for defensive positions and refugees thus we should make as much use of them as possible in time of war.
+10% Fort defense (Geographical reasons mixed with the fact that they did live on hills)

In the depths of the forests
Our enemies might be numerous but they will suffer if they believe that they can simply wade into our territory without resistance they will find that it is a lot harder than they think.
+1 Land attrition to enemies (Once more geographical reasons)

Raiding economics
Long have we compensated for a lack of resources with raids to the Burmese lands by making this a standardized part of our military conduct we can ensure greater efficiency in the conduct and by ensuring the loot raise the morale among our men.
+10% Looting speed
+10% Army Morale
(They were raiders and in the construction of a state this seems logical)

Passing down traditions
We have long honored our history and legends and by instructing the next generation we establish a sense of continuity and tradition.
-1 National revolt risk (They possessed oral traditions passed down which helps establish continuity)

Placating overlords
Kale was formed as a vassal state in service to the Shan and it has served this purpose for many others and as such we have come to value the independence we have and how to keep those who rule us happy we should use these strategies to avoid unnecessary conflict.
+15% Improve relationships (Self-explanatory

People of all faiths
As a subject nation we have been surrounded with Buddhist aristocrats and hindu traders coming through our land which has led to accept these foreign customs and beliefs if for no other reason than our own benefit.
+2 Tolerance to heathens (Self-Explanatory)

Chin state
At last our nation has come to maturity having come far from a collection of hill people we are now ready to cast of the yoke of foreign rule.
+100% Hostile Core-creation cost (Resistance towards conquest would be a part of the whole ordeal all things considered)

Ambition
+1 Prestige (Had no other ideas)


Tripura (Should not be Chin at all the Tripura are and Indian people and arguably the oldest of the Indian nations thus they should either have their own unique culture or more practically Bengal culture which they seem to be very close to)

Traditions
+50% Hostile core-creation cost (Remained fairly independent and they were a collection of autonomous tribes not the easiest things to assert control over)
+10% Goods Produced modifier (Found out that for the small size of their country they were productive)

Ancient kingdom
Tripura is arguably the oldest of the Indian states as evidenced by the Pillars of Ashoka and our mention in the Sanskrit texts this gives us an unquestionable legitimacy.
+1 Legitimacy (Self-Explanatory)

Tribal shield
Our land consists of many tribes and one Maharajah and even as we begin to adopt a more feudal approach to administration we have decided to allow the warlike tribes a large degree of autonomy in return they give us troops by which we defend this kingdom of ours.
+10% National manpower modifier (This is actually true)

Rajmala
In the beginning of the 15th century the Dharma Manikya I patronized art and the chronicle of our royal chronicle, in verse, tracing our ancestry back into ancient times it now serves as an important symbol of the art and writing of our nation.
-10% Idea cost (Self-explanatory)

Bengali administration
The Bengals have long been an influence on our nation and are thus a natural model for our administration.
+10% National Tax modifier (They did in fact adopt a Bengali administrative system though with a few differences.)

Procuring foreign arms
All nations are dependent on their armies to defend them and when surrounded by nations far bigger than us than perhaps we could bolster our ranks with foreign mercenaries.
-20% Mercenary cost (The tripura hired afghans and Portuguese into their army)

East Bengal trade
In order to bolster our economy we should encourage the nations of eastern Bengal to open up for trade thereby allowing us to sell our products far and wide.
+10% Global trade modifier (Self-explanatory)

Reclaim old Tripura'
The oldest kingdom in India and it once reached the seas we will now use our heritage as a means of pushing our claims and thus expanding our power across the Sub-continent.
-20% Time to fabricate claim (A logical conclusion I think)

Ambitions
-0.05 Monthly Autonomy (A lot of ideas revolving around administration so this is a logical conclusion)


Kachari

Traditions
-0.02 War exhaustion (seems like the endless amount of skirmishes and so forth would give them a mentality meant to endure wartime and deafeat.)
+25% Looting speed (They seem to have spent a lot of time raiding people)

Heirs of Ghatotkacha
We trace our peoples royal family back to the heroic figure of Ghatotkacha and it will gain us the respect of our peers.
+1 Prestige (Yes they did in fact construct a work to prove this)

Hindunized Nobility
When we moved to Maibang we encountered a great deal of brahims and there culture leading to adoption of a number of hindu elements bringing us closer to the Indian nations and their culture.
+1 Diplomatic reputation (With the adoption of a prestigious culture comes increased reputation)

Flexible authority
Having had to endure the loss of our capital and several ongoing conflicts in a territory which lacks a proper administration we have found ways to keep an internal stability so that we may remain strong against our enemies.
-10% stability cost modifier

Ahom Competition
Our mortal enemies to the north have waged war against us for some time now and this has caused much suffering on our side with knowledge that more struggles are yet to come as such we should establish a recruitment program that allows us to quickly fill our ranks for the next conflict.
+10% Manpower recovery (They were indeed in some hefty struggle with the Ahom and I thought this was a good representation)

Extended family
Our people are not a unified entity with many different tribes and varying traditions we have found that in looking for the things we have in common instead we are able to become closer to them.
-10% Accepted culture threshold (Kachari are divided into many tribes each with their own traditions)

Naga head hunters
The Assamese have long dreaded the fearsome naga people for their raiders and headhunters since they live on our land we should take steps to integrate them into our military.
+10% Infantry combat ability (Nagaland is part of Kachar in this time)

Eastern frontier
Kachari lands are the gateway to the south-asian lands along with the Buddhists that permeate that region making us the frontier for the hindu civilization.
+1 Missionary strength (Just look at the in game map for regions and religions)

Ambition
+5% Discipline (a long time spent against the Ahom and so forth would probably make the disciplined)
