Great stuff, @Nikolai!
Do my eyes deceive me, or do I see a Scandinavian Vinland colony in North America?

Yes, Denmark starts with Norway as a vassal and Vinland as a colony.
August 31st, 1881 - the world:
North America, both Elysium and Vinland has expanded a lot. They're quite weak, though.
South America has seen Saxony, the HRE and GB expand a lot. The Inca is weak, but territorially big:
Caliphate has good control in the east of Africa, with Al-Andalus expanding a lot in the west, with some smaller colonies of ours there too:
And yes, Al-Andalus is governed by an empress.
In Oceania and South Asia, the HRE controls the spice trade, with the Caliphate controlling Brunei and parts of Australia and the Pacific islands, plus half of New Zeeland. Japan, though, is expanding at alarming rates:
Japan also is expanding into Siberia, while Qing is also quite the powerhouse. Mughals is slowly expanding into south India:
Europe is dominated by the big empires:

The Caliphate has a healthy surplus of bureaucracy, but we plan to expand our institutions when we can. We have a very conservative society though, and there is little incentive to liberalize. The economy is growing well, with us currently having the Suez Canal 53 weeks away.
Our literacy has...some to be desired:
SoL is slowly going up, but it's low.
Population growing too:

Also, a HRE that is based in France.Of everything wrong here, I think Holy Roman Brazil and Indonesia are the wrongest
Don't forget a Third Odyssey-esque Elysium with Vinland. I am playing as Elysia for a slow-paced, colonial game. The thing that annoys me is the need to wait to unlock railways because low infrastructure limits. RIP my market. Oh, and the innovations are slow.

Yeah, I bet it's both frustrating and interesting.
@Drogan not sure if this is a bug with the game or the mod, but the war goal here is bugged.

January, 1895. The world is changing, yet much the same. The Caliphate has never been stronger.
She has expanded in the east, adding both land and vassals:
Twice the last decade has Zululand rebelled. Twice has she been defeated. The lands in Africa is still securely and profitably in Caliphate hands:
The Caliphate's economy is booming, from merely years ago almost bankrupt and -125k a week, to +14.5k now and much, much bigger:
As you can see, many are loyalists, many are radicals, but the loyalists grow faster.
The Caliphate's standing is #6 in the world, and she will not be regarded higher as long as she is part of the Roman market. But the market is good for her, and the Romans have proven good friends for a change.
Her army and navy has grown a lot since 1881, and modernized a lot. But the military technologies are set on the back burner, as the Caliphate seeks good relations with her powerful neighbors and only - now and then - take on the natives, else keeping to herself. The two subjugation demands from Al-Andalus made the Caliph order a massive military buildup the last two years though, more or less doubling the number of available batallions.
The Caliphate is still very conservative, only recently adopting appointed bureaucrats and tightly holding on to autocracy, monarchy, slavery and other old and tested governance forms.

That is pretty amazing growth in GPD you have in there. And pretty reactionary government.
If only I could quit the Roman market. Tried after a save to check how it would go. Crashed from +40k to -200k in a month.
We keep being pretty reactionary top.
Next update will be for the early 1900s.
Seems I have got a bug. The mod is enabled, but the game tells me the mod is missing.
And I have no idea why it says ver.0.10, it's been updated.

It might of since it altered cultures. You can revert to last version if needed at https://mods.paradoxplaza.com/mods/51849/Any
Wow Commonwealth is Kaiserreich? :O Who is the Kaiser of Commonwealth? I mean it kinda makes sense. "Kaiser" is german for "Ceasar" and "Commonwealth" is another name for "Republic" (Res Publica). We do use some words from german "szlachta" our name for nobility originates from german
P.S.: Hellenic Elysium, Norse Vinland are straight up from Third Odyssey to EU IV. Now I'm convinced it's not althist mod

Sorry for breaking your save, did you try https://mods.paradoxplaza.com/mods/51849/Any/?version=24 PDX mod page messes up the names and description when I upload them but they keep a log of all the different versions so that should be the version you were playing.If I get the save to work again, I'll check.
I am about to upload 0.13 but then I will go 2-3 weeks between updates focused on bigger well tested changes.
They are totally inspired by that mod! and yes the line between alt history and fantasy might get slightly blurred at times.Wow Commonwealth is Kaiserreich? :O Who is the Kaiser of Commonwealth?

I trid chosing the version 24, was forced to place it in another mod set, did so, chose it and activated it, but didn't work. Then again, both the new and the old set says 0.13? I see no way of seeing the actual version.
Btw, did a quick try of Mughal Empire, some thoughts:
I have like 200k lost taxes after a couple years, start with 140k lost, and building government buildings are not enough, as I lack like 1000 (!) taxation capacity in some provinces. And the only thing I can reliably build is opium etc, as anything else ruins me.
Latter is okay, first, is there anything I can do? And is it balanced as it is now?
