If my monarch dies when I have PUs that should inherit on monarch death, but my monarch has no legal heir, does that mean I won't inherit the PUs?

nope - I recently inherited several countries without a legal heir (ie. with a monarch from an entirely new dynasty taking over the country).
Alright, I haven't played EUIII in ages (2 years to be precise) and I have recently installed it again (DW 5.1 is the current version I suppose?).
I wanna start with a country outside Europa, so I have to westernize. Can someone sum up in a few points what are the important decissions/sliders in the first 50-100 years? I'm thinking of starting with an African country, if that helps.

The current version is DW 5.2 QMXZ or modded ZZFZ/MAQJ. To westernize, you need to have your sliders slightly centralized and innovative. The first westernizing decision will get your stab to -2 and ugly events will pop up. If you can bear them and get to stab +3 very fast, then take the worse option and quickly modernize your armies. After that, your technology and armies are equal to those of the Europeans'.

Anyone able to confirm that the wiki is up to date?
After taking Patron of the arts, it just requires an artist advisor, 25 cities or more and 500 in the bank? (stab +1) ?
(have had all and havn't had it fire in 30 years so far)

Yes, it is still the same. Its MTTH is 20 years (+ modifiers) but that's just an average; it might fire immediately or it might not fire the whole game.
If you can afford to 'lose' a national idea, then patron of the arts is really helpful. It has a relatively common event that gives you +2 innovation (you need to be highly innovative and centralised to Westernise.) The moment you can Westernise it is usually a good idea to do it for the better tech speed.
However if you haven't got the required slider and rules stats to Westernise your military, then it is very important you resist western influences when the event comes.
Also the best nation in Africa is probably Morocco, it has the ability to trade and can easily become the leader in tech. Westernising isnt even that important you are so rich.
Hello, a question regarding stability investments: Once I reach the +3 level, are they all lost? I can obviously change the slider to divert budget spending, but what about the ruler investment or advisor bonus? if these are lost, is it seems logical to sack the advisor, yes?
You dont invest any money into stab once you reach stab 3 so all the modifiers are wasted. However you might want to keep them for the events.
Cyan,
It will depend on what you are goingto do next. If you are going to make actions that will drop your stab (attacking another one,or whatsoever) keep him, if not fire him, even if he is a 5 or 6 stars.

a 6 star stability advisor is better then a 1 star banker, even if you have 3 stability. the +2 stability event aswell as the other events that require a 6 star advisor to fire (you can use the +2 stability to declare war on someone penalty free, change your national idea almost penalty free ect.)
If you occupy their nation for a few years the war score goes down, slowly. Although you are quite right, if you want to dismantle a nation then abusing the ridiculous ws for releasing nations is the way to go.
To elaborate, a mtth of 20 means there is a 1/20 chance of the event firing each year. It could take 1 day, it could take 1000 years. But it is likely to eventually fire.
I'd disagree with that. Stability can drop even if you don't expect it to, so it can always be helpful to have a stability adviser. I'd only fire him if he's old and/or there's another excellent adviser to replace him with.
No... I did not mean just fire him to get a non good advisor. Of course there are random events, but perhaps not...
At war with Venice (playing as Castille).
I have beat them up and conquered their lands, but the cost for vassalisation (my preference) is 104. Can I just wait for a while and that score will drop, and if so how long does this usually take?
I have seen people mentioning this before, but having never tried it myself I just wanted to make sure it would work. I don't want to get stuck with an auto-white peace situation.
Thanks for any feedback.

No, in EU3, the total score will not change. You'll have to take a province and vassalize them next war or choose a different treaty. You could theoretically wait until rebels break out (or encourage them with spies), wait for a defection, and then vassalize.
Do Danish patriot rebels ever form Denmark if Denmark does no exist? 2 of my african colonies have fallen to them and as I did not want african holdings (inherited Denmark). I was hoping they would break away. Decades have past and they are still rebel controlled 
As far as I'm aware only cored provinces may defect/form from rebels. If Denmark never gained cores on the colonies, I don't think they'll ever form - though I'm not sure whether rebels will count towards cores.Do Danish patriot rebels ever form Denmark if Denmark does no exist? 2 of my african colonies have fallen to them and as I did not want african holdings (inherited Denmark).
