No Irish Ideas?

[minath]

So I started as Friesland and conquered Ireland, but when I actually formed it I kept the German Ideas?
Can someone explain this?

What's your primary culture? I think it needs to be Irish for you to get Irish ideas.

I had to change it to Irish to form Ireland in the first place.

The 'Form Ireland' decision doesn't swap idea groups. The decision needs "swap_free_idea_group = yes" if you want to get new ideas.

So the only formable nations with this modifier are:

The Mughals
The Netherlands
Italy
Persia
Prussia
The Byzantine Empire

Everey other formable nation just keeps the ideas of the previous one, no matter what?

Unless you mod the decision, yes.
