Ming China Flavour

Welcome back! At long last now updated and compatible with patch 1.37!

Ming China Flavour adds to the East Asia and China experience in EU4. It aims to create a more dynamic and historical East Asia, as well as a more fun and engaging Ming / Celestial Empire.

Not Ironman/achievements compatible.

No guarantees to any compatibility with any other mods, although graphical mods should be compatible. Mandate of Heaven and Domination DLCs highly suggested for full content integration. English localisation only.

Mod created by myself. No copying of any content from my mod without my consent. Thank you. Any suggestions and/or feedback welcome.

Huge shoutout to Macky527 for the Tibetan & Manchurian map and Tibetan content!

Note: Modifiers may not be entirely balanced at the moment, looking to tweak a few numbers in the future.
