What's the best nation for a New World Exodus?

[Faeelin]

In terms of ideas. (Please don't say Russia).

Well it is, you know.. Russia
..by far


sry

Norway is also decent. Colonist + Explorer/Conquistator build in his idea.

One of the Jurchen tribes could be interesting. All colonized lands would be of Manchu culture so you could raise large amounts of Manchu banners.

One of the best (Europe) would be Britany, providing you can keep good relations with France (Navarra is better, but it's an exercice in frustration to remain alive till the 1500.

I suppose that by exodus, you mean actually moving your entire nation to the new world.

I think Navarre and Thomond are excellent candidates for an exodus. Both nations are OPM’s on the Western edge of Europe, so there will be very little difficulty transferring the capitol to the New World and preventing Colonial Nations from rising. What’s more, they both have settler per month National Ideas so they will be colonizing very quickly. I’d say Thomond edges out Navarre, because the OPM’s surrounding it allow for rapid amounts of MP generation in the early years via humiliating rivals and Showing Strength to get you into the colonial game quickly.

If you don't mind mods, the Third Odessy mod does exactly this with Byzantium, with a lot of really neat flavor events as the game progresses. Wanna convert back to Hellenism? Go for it. Want to break off and become Aztec Sparta? Sure. There are even Norse Viking colonies left over when you get there.

Not exactly in the spirit of OP's question but it makes for a fun exodus game, definitely.

Just thinking out loud, but quickest would probably be to rush for exploration as Yeren, use a colony to fabricate claims on the Siberian clans for a quick boost to colonial range and then go island hoping over the Bering strait.
Now that I think of it, this might be an interesting way to get the "Blood for the sky god" achievement.
