Code:
USA = { #United States
	no = AZT #All Precolombian states
	no = CHM
	no = INC
	no = MAA
	no = ZAP
	date = { day = 1 month = january year = 1774 }
	expirydate = { year = 1820 }
	minimum = { 54 62 63 64 68 85 86 87 88 101 102 103 }
	extra = { 55 61 65 66 69 70 83 84 89 90 91 99 100 104 112 }
	capital = 86
	group = latin
	ai = "Large.ai"
}
=> not before 1774 and provinces are in minimum.
 
As simple as that but USA ruler will be very strange because rulers starts in 1700 in monarchs.usa and not before. Nevertheless, first ruler is easy to extend (same date principle) or you can create new ones.
 
Does that mean that USA can't form in for instance, the Inca Empire is still alive and kicking in the 1770's?
 
It means that the USA can't become independent from the Inca Empire. Really only an issue if a human is playing them. :p
