HOLY BANANAS THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER

[Catastrophic lolcats]

That is the best thing ever. Bookmarked. 
Do modded saves also work?

[Mini]

At a guess they would unless they change number or location of provinces (in which case it will likely ignore the new provinces or have everything in the wrong place). Mods that only change the shape of provinces might work, or they might have everything in the wrong place (the former I think is more likely, with my very limited knowledge of how EU4 generates province IDs).

I crash consistently after forming Hindustan..

I had the same problem when forming scandinavia.
Wait a couple of years and try again.

Man after a hundred years, the native americans don't do anything.

Do what? Declare war on Super France?

Expand, and colonized. They had time to expand before France.

Maybe they're programed not to pick up colonizing ideas, for an attempt at both historical accuracy (which, heh, will never happen in the New World), and to not annoy colonizing players.

[Catastrophic lolcats]

So this is rather good news.

Apparently there are plans to add "over 25" new unique national ideas to various countries. This has relieved a bit of my fears that EUIV would be heavily milked for DLC. If Paradox is smart they'd make the majority of these "cultural" ideas so that cultural regions with lots of minors (HRE, Ireland) won't all suffer from generic ideas.

Afaik, only Portugal, Spain (Castille), France, GB (England), Netherlands and Norway (might have forgotten one) take Explorations. Plus, it can be quite hard to reach adm 4 before they arrive. As Kongo, I only have 20 years between the time I unlock it and they come, and Sub-Saharan is a bit better than New World. I'm pretty sure the AI don't reach it.

I've some of the African nations do stuff. But they also dont really expand. Like the Mali and Hausa wont really interact, even though they're oh so very close.

[PanH]

Don't they have natives in between them ? Natives are very though for sub saharan units. They war and expand, but they don't colonize.

Brandenburg -> Prussia -> Germany -> Holy Roman Empire

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Ironman. Not shown is my North American colonies funneling trade in from the west.
I would have formed it a bit earlier but I had to first dismantle the Danish mega empire, which gave rise to the Swedish empire. I dismantled France but Spain came in later and gobbled up the rest. Dismantled Britain since they were meddling in my colonial affairs, they came back decently unfortunately. However what really slowed me down was getting into massive wars with the Spanish empire which has a PU with Portugal.

Think I'm pretty much done now. All that remains is taking more of North America and consolidating gains in Europe. If I really wanted to I could move my capital to Italy and try to get to get into the Indian trade but I'm not sure if I want to make that commitment.

What does the Diplo Mod "Backward Monarchy" mean?

Except you're the Holy Roman Empire and the Ottomans are still around. You need to re-take Constantinople.
