For the new expansion I was wondering if you where playing as a non-eurpean nation would you get non-European colonial states in the unlikely event you manage to colonise the Americas before any Europeans.

I mean if I was playing as Persia would I get colonial states with a Persian name, or will there just be generic Muslim states. It would be annoying if you played as Persia and the colonial state just had a Arab name, or worse a European name. Though admitedly I can't imagine them puting in the effort for one tiny culture.

They said that they have a universal, generic name generator for all of the less likely colonizers. From the screenshots, I can easily presume that these fill-in nations will just be [Nation Adj.] [Region Name]. In your example, colonizing Cuba will probably result in "Persian Cuba" or something. While it may seem lazy, keep in mind only a handful of nations ever colonize in a single game. It makes no sense to put so much effort for that 0.01% chance that a nation who never had a chance at colonies manages to create one.
