It's a decision for Eastern and Ottoman Tech nations to Westernize for free if they conquer certain Western cities such as Wien (there's also a tech requirement, and you have to hold the province(s) for a while).

It's mainly meant to incentivize Ottomans and Russia to go west.

Oh wow, this is large

In retrospect I probably should have included this in today's DD since yeah, it's a fairly major balance change.

Really curious which provinces count towards this mission, or if it is based on the development score of a western province?

Not sure the fight for an HRE province is worth it, but if there are alternatives, like in Italy or Iberia....

I still think that tech group should be determined at the province level. At 1444, each province has a tech group (score), the average percentage of your countries tech score is your cost for new tech.

But will take a mission to westernise :)
