Noble Republic question

[unmerged(6509)]

Hey guys.

My plan is to make France into a Noble Republic ASAP with a 1444 start. Am I correct in assuming that upon hitting ADM 12 and switching to Administrative Republic my Aristocracy idea group will switch automatically into plutocratic?

Thanks boys.

 

[IIWW]

Yes

 

[Novacat]

Um, I am pretty sure once you pick an idea group, you keep it. So your assumption is incorrect.

Thanks man. I'm trying to min/max how many cultures I can accept as France, so I want Plutocratic for the policy

Apart from the humanist idea and the humanist+plutocratic policy, anything else I can do as France? And are those additive? Is humanist+diplomatic policy still there in 1.8?

 

[IIWW]

They are additive, and only same group ploicies very removed (i.e. mil idea+mil idea offensive+quantity). Since humanism is ADM and diplo is, well, DIP, this policy should still be there.

So I could go to 6% BT as accepted culture threshold yes?

Correct, but how do you plan on becoming a republic?

 

[IIWW]

Yes. GB can get even to 2% BT

Correct, but how do you plan on becoming a republic?

Finish Influence and Aristocratic idea groups, stab > 1, no heir or weak heir (legitimacy < 50), have less than 20 provinces. The decision to become a Noble Republic becomes available then.

And that decision doesn't count vassal land as your own like other decisions?

Not according to the tool tip, start a game as France and hover over the decisions and you should see it.
