I am not sure if this is the proper place for this, or if it has been discussed before ( I haven't seen it while perusing this part of the forum).
This is not so much a bug, as what is likely a decision made during the course of programming (and possibly therefore a WaD), but because all manpower is pooled together a major power is never forced to raise troops of more than one culture.
The most common abuse of this is for the Union to simply be able to raise entirely Yankee soldiers, leaving the Confederacy with no troops when it seceeds. Likewise it is this which allows the British to raise a gigantic army based mostly off of Indian manpower, and facilited my own raising of Confederate troops off of Indo-China's manpower. All of this is quite simply absurd when one considers that the culture of these units will be that of the home country.
Either manpower should be pooled by culture, or new units should be raised with cultures proportional to the cultures of the soldier population of the countr.
This isn't even getting into the Swedish culture of all divisions raised by the AI, which like this entire topic is likely a WaD, but one I would like to know whether or not there is work being done to improve the system.
