So after a few months of work, I've decided to release my mod here for everyone to enjoy, especially since I'm going back to school, and brough back a box full of books, and might not have too much time to work on this stuff. Now, going to the point, welcome to the EASTERN IMPROVEMENT PROJECT!
So, what is this exactly? Well it's a mod aiming to improve areas of the map which need an improvement, namely, Russia, the Steppes, Africa, the Middle East and India. I did my best trying to find references to people that occupied areas where the Vanilla game puts "One-man Kingdoms".
How is that done? For the moment, I've only added more characters to fill out empty spaces, and also changed the culture and religion of some existing characters, should prove for some interesting gameplay in the eastern part of the map.
