HIP - Comprehensive Annals of Five Dynasties

This mod won't work without EMF and SWMH mods from Historical Immersion Project[forum.paradoxplaza.com] installed.

So, making use of the expanded SWMH map provided by @mechl and employing the historical records, I populated the formerly empty land with characters and provinces appropriate for this period. I always wanted China in the game, but the problem with Tianxia and Umbra Spherae before was that while the Far East was great, the rest of the map was left completely vanilla. For me it is impossible to play CK2 without SWMH, so I decided to alleviate this issue myself.

However, this is not just Tianxia stiched to SWMH and called a submod. I've spent last year going through 資治通鑑, 新唐書, 舊唐書, 舊五代史, 十國春秋, 吳越備史 and adding every Jiedushi and Cishi recorded there into the game. No placeholders characters were added to China at all, every single landed character is historically attested (sometimes it's just one mention, but that's still better than nothing) to hold the position in question. The only semi-fictional characters present appear in cases when someone is called a grandson or nephew of some other guy, but the immediate ancestry is unknown. In those cases I added unattested characters or invented links that are possible, but cannot be proven. Fictional characters appear only in poorly attested regions, like Manchuria, Tibet, Mongolia, to represent the fragmentation of those regions in this time period.

The province setup is based on the administrative divisions of 5 Dynasties and Song periods to keep consistency with the historical records as much as possible, but details are still subject to change. Close to 400 provices were added for the expansion and the number of historical characters for Han alone passed 10.000 persons (this includes quite extensive trees of ancestors going at times as far back as Han dynasty).
