Do you know you can play as Zulu in Ironman in 1444?

I am not very often on the Paradox forum so I don´t know if this has already been noticed by someone. I like to play later start dates (because playing just the first one is boring and gets stale pretty quickly) and I noticed that if you click on Zulu in a 19th century start date and then go back, it doesn´t disappear. You can go back all the way to 1444 and play as them, although your provinces aren´t cored and your neighbouring provinces aren´t discovered.

And if you do, the game may crash at any moment because the "move date backward" buttons are, and have always been, weird and buggy and cause all sort of other irregularities in game state,, and if you report the crash Paradox will probably ignore you :)

Yeah, I know they will ignore it. I just wanted to post this in case this wasn´t known, you know, for fun. If this is nothing new then I´m sorry.
