Egypt is uncivilized nation ???
and this is an article talks about Egypt from 1805 to 1841 Under the rule
Muhammad Ali of Egypt
Within game they would be at best partially-Westernized and along that way more than most other non-Western nations.
Because they aren't Western and to reflect the stylistic tropes of the game Western people's get more tech and reforms than other powers to reflect their dominance of the era in game terms.
Egypt conquered syria .
Palestine
Iraq
Ankara and Edna
The Arabian Peninsula
and was have an 300 thousand Soldier
and about 20 big ship every ship have 100 cannon
Egypt was the biggest country of producing cotton
Egypt Defeated Ottoman Empire
Yes, and how can that not be reflected in game with Egypt being an uncivilized nation given a better ability to raise a military if the player chooses to assign more Foci into increasing the nations number of soldiers?
Here's a hint: All of it can be and I've done much the same playing Japan in games as I worked to Westernize that could easily be written in a history as a powerful and talented Emperor much like Muhammad Ali taking over instead of Meiji and pushing his country in an almost prophetic way given what he knew to do that made them strong quickly and to check the threat of encouraging Western powers in a way that makes Japans historical reforms pale in comparison.
and Transvaal is an civilized nation how ???????
Transvaal, like all Afrikaner nations is made up of Westerners and so mechanically are civilized as a result, just as South America is and the rest of the peripheral West outside of Europe and North America. We could argue all day about this being "accurate" but much of this game has little to do with accuracy, instead it's to create enough of a sense of the era it reflects so to give the player a taste of that era and them enjoy experiencing the 1800s in a 21st Century game.
In your case you could play Egypt and full in Muhammud Ali's boots as a great reformer and simulate verisimilitude of if his reign had been followed by further brilliance.
Egypt is civilized nation please change it and thanks
Why?
Simply because it offends your 16 year old nationalistic sensibilities you want Paradox to change the entire game for everyone? If that was applied for everyone ticked at the state of their nation, like that of Japan, China and the rest of Far East that was working hard to modernized as well) there wouldn't be a single uncivilized nation in this game nor would the game be set in the Victorian Era any longer, but be some odd amalgam of it and the modern era.
Here's a question: How much have you played this game? Have you even played it yet?
Here's another question: WTF should they change an entire faction simply because one player doesn't like they way that faction is in the game?
Here's another question: If this bothers you so much, mod it out like we all do with things that annoy us enough and tailor the game to the way you want it, like how I always rename Istanbul to Constantinople. Use the console and hasten Egypt's modernization to make it civilized before you even leave the first day of the new game.
You do that by hitting the ` button, typing in debug alwaysreform to get rid of the cooldown time, then putting in researchpoints 25000 (which is the max you can have), then click away on those civilizinb reformed and type in the researchpoint command whenever you run out until you're 100% Westernized.
This bugs you, a lot about this game bugs people, it is why this games ability to be modded is so beloved, as are all Pdox games. Please listen to the advice given in the replies and recognize that none of it, mine included, isn't meant to thumb our thumb at you, but to get you to realize what you can do on your own to change it, to let you know that you aren't the first person to be in this position and to help you go through everything every new Pdox player goes through.
Now, the Boer republics could do with being uncivilized. The problem here is that they certainly had the theoretical background and the trade connections to Europe that argue for them being civilized, even if they weren't big on institutions (government, army etc.).
The issue is that they aren't that much of a stones throw from the way the Western nations in North and South America were like, and like them, once they settled down and started building nations they quickly developed typical Western frontier nations that looked little different than your average US state west of the Mississippi.
Had the Afrikaners had the ability to settle down for prolonged periods of time in peace they would have developed a more coherent national history much like the settling of any frontier the West was on, but being on the edge of the British Empire in a strategically sensitive region to the Empire meant they never had peace and were constantly pushed further and further away from the Cape until there was no where else to go.
