Hello Dear Modder. If you don't mind, I have some suggestions regarding the Population section of the mod:
I-There were some Sephardic communities in cities like Mosul, Arbil, Kirkuk and Basra(Iraq), Dayr al Zour and Latakia (Syria), Dumyat and Tanta (Egypt), Taizz and Aden (Yemen), Kabul and Herat (Afghanistan), Iraklion, Chania, Chios, Patras, Khalkis, Trikala, Zante and Edessa (Greece), Famagusta (Cyprus), Pristina (Kosovo), Wazzan, Meknes, Wujda, Safi, Tangier, Tetouan, Ajdir, Melilla and Sawira (Morocco). There were also other Sephardic communities in Amsterdam, Hamburg, London, Calcutta, Ancona, Bologna, Venice, Leghorn, Modena and Ferrara. The cities of Verona, Trieste and Alessandria (Italy) also had Jewish communities but they were more likely to be Ashkenazi. In Palestine there was some Ashkenazi communities, mainly in Jerusalem and Galilee (Acre in the game). In Belgrade there were some Ashkenazi too (besides the Sephardic majority). In Marseille and Constanta there were Jewish communities.
II-In Greece (mainly Athens, Khalkis and the Peloponnese) there were significant Albanian communities (Arvanites).
III-There was an influential Greek community in Leghorn.
IV-In Siwa (Egypt) the population is mostly Berber.
V-There is an Ibadi minority in Ouargla(Algeria) and Ghadamis (Libya).
VI-The population of Galicia (Spain) have strong cultural connections with their Portuguese neighbours. Perhaps, it would be more realistic to place a Portuguese majority in Galicia.
VII-In 1836 in Brazil there was a very small South German community in São Paulo and in the province of Porto Alegre there was an North German community (nearly 4000 people). In the city of Rio de Janeiro, about 1/5 of the population were Portuguese. I say that because in the US there is some European population in the beginning of the game, but Paradox ignored that Brazil also had its own Europeans at the same time.
VIII-It would be interesting and realistic to see an event regarding the Circassian Exile and other about the Zionist Aliyah to Palestine.
Thanks for the patience.
