Well that wouldn't be accurate as coastal Patagonia was colonised during the EUII time period, I think the Patagonian interior should be PTI'ed though (amongst other things)

Germans, of course. Baltic population ("Latvian" peasants - Curshes and Zemgales) is too conservative for leaving their homes for any colonies. And in fact Fort Jacob was not a "colony" but a fortress (same as Portuguese Elmina or Danish Christiansborg in Accra).Semi-Lobster said:Speaking of Courland, who exactly colonised Courland's colonies? Did German Courlanders go or was it the Latvian Courlanders? Or was it both?
Well, in fact hard to answer. The ancient Livs were historically Finno-Ugric population, but during the XII-XVIII centuries the situation changed to Baltic favour. Still Ugric Livland in AGCEEP is made in order not to give Sweden Baltic culture, but allow it to control Livland without penalties.Semi-Lobster said:Shouldn't the Livland province be Baltic?

And Latgalia is indeed 100 % Baltic and it is represented by Dynaburg province on MyMap.
Quite a strange map (and wrong really). Naturally the Livs occupied the territory of all Western Livland coast (including the place were Riga later was built) and north of Courland (why do you think the land is called Livland/Livonia in contrast to historical Latgalia, which is Dynaburg?). Before the 9-13 centuries Latgalians occupied even smaller territories.Semi-Lobster said:The ancient Livs (which actually still exist today) are not related to Latvians

They lived and still live along the the Western shore of the Gulf of Riga, they hardly encompass the entire Livland province

Here you can see the modern day regions of Latgalia and Semigalia (which are almost same as historical):
