Nationalism & Unification Mod

[Zuckergußgebäck]

After seeing the boers beat the living crap out of the british and annexing most of South Africa, I became a bit annoyed that there was no way for them to create South Africa. I know that this isn´t perfectly historical (it´s on the level of Scandinavia), but I sat down and wrote a couple of events in the case of a boer triumph in the Boer war.

I don´t know exactly how V:R compatible these events are (the endddates should be 1933, for example), but since I don´t have V:R, I´ve made them for my standard Victoria. Some V:R player can perhaps sort out any inconsistencies.
(The "ubr" flag is the dutch south africa flag on the Victoria Flag Directory)

Now, you might ask, why does he call this the "Nationalism & Unification Mod", if all he wanted was to present his events for the creation of a boer SAF? Well, it is because I want to take this further than that, I want to have MANY ahistorical unification events for different things, such as the egyptians declaríng themselves the Caliphate in the second oriental crisis and much more.

I can´t do this alone, but I do hope that there is sufficient interest in the forum for such a mod and that I might get some help from them.

Forwards towards Unification!
