Missing nations which appear in Vicky's start date

[Mrkew]

With Victoria 3 release being just around the corner, I thought it'd be a good idea to point out that there is a bunch of nations which were formed during eu4's timeline or during the 1821-1836 gap and appear in the 1836 start, yet they cannot be formed or released in eu4 if you play the grand campaign.
Apart from the most obvious one - United Kingdom, there is a number of indian states, a few german minors, but also Liberia or boer nations, and south america is missing uruguay, ecuador, nd bolivia.
There are simple solutions - the UK can simply be a name change from one of the late missions akin to Hansa or Caliphate. German minors and Indian states can gain cores as the game progresses into late game similar to Greece, South African nations and Liberia could get events to spawn. The missing South American nations as a form decision for former CNs.
Also, some of the important nations are impossible to form for the AI. You sometimes see the unicorns form, but you'll never see a historical Siam or a Burma because instead of a decision, they are locked behind complex mission trees with each mission combining several requirements that the AI can't overcome.

EDIT: Re-reading, I noticed I forgot Belgium, but no one cares about Belgium.

EU is EU
Vicky is Vicky

One ought not matter to the other.

UK is GB, act of union is so late I don't blame them not including it
Kalymkia forming is random if you have taken all the eurasian steppe as russia, but habshi isnt so odd. Whereas boer events wouldn't work considering how few south african provinces there are.

German minors and latin american states arent fated to form in 1444.
Many German Minors are due to inheritance still being partible, whichever dev decided to add texas and sonora was dumb because then it opens the flood gates to each central american post colonial tag being added in
Indian tags wont organicslly form because indians conquer, rather than make tributaries or vassals in eu4, and when an empire is collapsing, it either bounces back or gets eaten by another empire unlike what happened in Indian history with the princes

Complaining about it being called Siam, or Burma instead of Ayyutha neglects it lacking the modern borders of Siam, or how many tags in eu4 are exonoym titles, like byzantine empire or Austria

Things that happen in the game should be the result of earlier events in the game. Having a bunch of random cores appear for no reason is a terrible idea. The Kalmyk and Zulu events are awful, and the Greek event is not much better. The last thing we need is more historical determinism.

Most Paradox game conversion mods typically rename tags upon save conversion, as appropriate.

Zulu is a mission isnt it?

The mission just lets you trigger the event early, after 1750 it can happen for anyone.
