How about some Cajun-Japanese hatred?
This Louisiana is GORGEOUS
I mean, I hardly ever see it form. Maybe that's because I rarely play to the end though.

I beat up Portugals navy a bit trying to get the 'Sun never sets on the Indian Empire' achievement, but yeah they were far bigger than Portugal.
In the past 20 years of that game, Louisiana, Caribas, and Portugese Columbia broke free. Then La Plata, Brazil, and Peru broke away from Spain. Now 13 colonies, Mexico, and British Columbia are trying their hand at it.
Meanwhile no one notices the Indians in Ottawa
They are thinking ahead, for when they all band up into the USA and have to fight Japan in WW2.

Because of the missions. The get land in India, Malaya, and China missions are often spammed by the AI, so British Mexico will attack Japan, and Dutch Brazil will attack Gujarat.
Yup. AI NEVER gets generic missions such as "Improve Our Prestige", "Take 'province ID'!", "Rival of our Rival" etc. . The only missions it ever takes are the tag-specific ones (Muscovy must subjugate Novgorod, Poland must recover Danzig, France must push England out of France etc.) and... well, the colonial ones. "Get presence in India", "Establish xxx in the Spice Islands" and so on. This is a bit unrealistic, but oh well.

So playing another custom map game as a kind of fully grown Netherlands but not the Netherlands. A neighbour annexed Luxemburg early on in the game but it suddenly broke free soon after. On the pop up I clicked the nations shield to see if I could quickly vassalise them and something was slightly off about it.
Its religion isn't the only thing slightly off. Because the rebels had gained their independence and their capital was in North Africa! So suddenly there is a westernised sunni nation in Africa at the start of the game!
But that wasn't the only weird thing.
Luxemburg still owned Luxemburg. So quite quickly I invaded. Tunis also invaded their North African holdings at the same time. Also during the occupation, the province decided it would much rather be with me, as I was Germanic and Catholic not Berber and Sunni, so I gained a free core on Luxemburg
Not for the first time a country gained independence in a custom game using random nations (not using France etc but province name and random attributes) and appearing in the wrong place. In my previous custom game, Kai, a Japanese Daimyo broke free and appeared in Croatia. (Posted this before but since I brought it up)

It looks like the Bohemian king tried to race you to the Adriatic. Who got there first?
I won the race to the Adriatic, barely.
I don't know what's better, Papal State the citadel of Calvinism or Kingdom of United States of America with a freakin French Queen
How about France with a German king (among other things)?
Nice Scandinavia. Was it Denmark or Sweden?
Since the introduction of Ld mechanics, I haven't seen Denmark maintain the union a single time.
