[ringworm]

Hi,

Busy colonizing suddenly get a popup saying new Norway has been founded and is my subject nation.

Plop..could I have stopped this?
And why would it do this?
Is this a negative or positive thing?

Many thanks

It's a colonial nation. Can't stop it; it is inevitable, and it will be your minion for the end of time.. plop plop.. I sense a few more a-comin'

When you get 5 provinces in the same colonial region, colonial nation is founded. It pays you some money (you can increase or decrease tarrifs), gives you trade power and force limit, and is your ally in wars. It can revolt after it's liberty desire goes above 50% and will revolt when it reaches 100%.

100+ hours on EU4 and is yet to see a colonial nation revolt without player interferense.

Yes, by never getting a fifth New World core or by modding the game to allow an arbitrary number of crown colonies.
Because that's how the game works since 1.4
With the new autonomy system, positive. Crank tariffs past 25% and you'll get more from the colonial nation than you would from directly holding the land.

Now that there's not really any way to reduce liberty desire, it should happen eventually.

And liberty desire increases when there's war exhaution in overlord country.
