Humble question on native development levels

[arctus]

Currently playing a japan game and discovered american west coast and australia and the natives there have an development level of around 20 till 30. I was just thinking what the hell happened here? Did i miss something? Seems super unbalanced.

It's been busted since Leviathan, and used to be even worse, with 80 dev NA tribe provinces. It's cool that they got expanded mechanics and a better chance to resist colonizers but they way it's been implemented is terrible. NA natives end up more developed than mesoamericans.

Its tribal development, allows them to receive dev from their tribal land without colonisers benefitting if they conquered the land

so that means when conquered it goes back to a more reasonable dev level?

Yes, you still suffer high dev ae tho

You can find out how much of that development is temporary by hovering mouse over development numbers.

There is a bug that allows forcing migratory tribes into settling their tribal dev into their tribal lands.
