I think, it is just graphical addition, it does not affect anything. And imo, it may be very ugly sometimes.

Why on earth is Canada green? Never ever has Canada even remotely been associated with the colour green. It doesn't even work map-wise, as Alaska is often Russian green and Mexico is green too. So you have three of four countries in North America with a green shade. Give us red or white!
All Right this may sound Stupid but how do you get Screenshots in Victoria II or any other Paradox Game like EU III Or HOI III. I'll Press F12 and the Computer Screen says "Screen Shot Taken". But then I'll go into The Game Files, go into the Screenshots Folder and there's no screenshots.
Are the files hidden ? I'd like to remake my AAR's with In Game Screenshots, but can't seem to do it...

Is there a way to give more land to your Satellites? For example: If I release Australia, then colonize the interior at a later date, is there any way to give that land to Australia? I know you can't release the same nation twice and free people is only a CB afaik.
Unfortunately, no. You could edit the save file, but that's about it.
Only via console command.
Look for the ID of the respective provinces you want to hand over (in /map/definition.csv), then open up the console ingame and type
changeowner AUS 123
where 123 is the province ID.
Or, use showprovinceid to make province IDs appear in to the tooltip when you hover over a province. Much more convenient than looking in the file.
Showprovinceid/changeowner is a man's best friend. And to think I used to write up long-winded events to do this sort of thing in EU3 and possibly Victoria/HOI2.
Quick question: Are their historical leaders? Von Moltke and the like. From what I've seen there isn't, with a couple of exceptions like in the ACW scenario. I don't see why it couldn't make the jump from Victoria, the HOI3 leaders were literally copied and pasted from HOI2.

Historical leaders are from OOB files.
And other generals have just generic names, but if you have luck you can have for example von Moltke with +5 to attack

As far as the OOB files go, most nations start with no leaders. So I guess the random leader generator will give you a flavour name with random stats. He's not von Moltke if he's not von Moltke! In Victoria you could generate leaders and some historical ones would show up at a certain time, including a guaranteed +6/+6 von Moltke or somesuch.
Thank You So Much, all my Pictures were there. Now, I have a new problem, each picture has a "SCREENSHOT TAKEN" text pasted over it. Is there any way to remove that ?
What percentage of my poor pops should have Everyday-needs or higher in 1890? I can't seem to get it any higher than about 30% and about 50% for the middle class.

What country are you, and what are your gains with said country? Do you build factories yourself or let capitalists? Are you a great power and if so, what's your rank and do you have some good spheres? Getting needs met is often more about providing with RGO's and factories than it is about tax level.
Greatest power, have basically taken Africa, dismantled and sphered the Ottoman Empire and Austria. Interventionist party in power, letting capitalists build factories, but upgrading them myself. Also I do some occasional factory cleaning, destroying the closed factories. Kinda wish there was a "delete all closed factories" button.
Hey, are there specific criteria for certain wargoals in HoD? I'm playing as prussia, and I don't see the 'assert hegemony' CB when viewing either AUS or the justifiable wargoal list. Neither to I see the 'war of unification when viewing france. Do these CB's not become available until certain years, or is my game faulty?
