Wait. So there's a new province in the Crimean Peninsula?

There's new provinces in a lot of places.

Woa, you got Theodoro in EU4!? Never realised that.

Awesome ideas.

Oh, and it's Mangup. Fix, please.

Or better - rename it to Doros.

Mangup better.

Fortifications add manpower, infantry production time cut down by 50%? ; )

Not saying that this particular suggestion is balanced, but National Ideas boosting/changing the effects of particular buildings would actually be really cool.

They are a small Gothic Principality in Crimea, added in 1.8.

Just noticed a semi-related dust-up in the CK2 forums, and am curious about the EU4 implementation of Theodoro.

Is "goth" or "gothic" or "crimean goth" culture going to be in the Scandinavian culture group, as one might expect from the name? Or is it going to be related to Greek, Tatar, or Slavic, given the population realities of the region in this period?

Byzantine group.

TY. Any chance they'd be able to form BYZ? Or will that still require "greek" proper?

(In theory, of course, I suspect they'd be even harder than Trebizond)

Looks like a good mix of things, I hope there are some special achievements for this one.
Wiz can you let us know if we can be expecting anything special with them?

Also there seems to be a weird obsession with finding the smallest nations and conquering the world with them among Paradox fans.

Is their culture still 'Goths' in the current iteration of the game? That really irked me from the stream it was shown on — it should be Gothic to stay in line with the kind of sentences it's used in.

"Convert the culture of Constantinople to Goths?"

"We're already working in Trebizond to make it Goths culture."

It's Gothic now.
