New World Colony Names Fan Fork

A Fan Fork of the New World Colony Names mod, originally made by Cwrwi, located here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1375379791

The original haven't been updated since 2019 however, cannot be run on the latest versions of the game, and can thus be considered abandoned.
This project aims to restore the mod to its former glory.

Fully playable on 1.37, but does not contain province names in certain languages for the provinces added in Leviathan, for which I need help.

Help so far:
Friedemann: German Australia
Annozoker: Italian America & Oceania
Darth Revan: Leviathan American provinces and a bunch of provinces here and there in Turkish
BurndenAce: English and French Canada
gorillaswithAKs: Scots Gaelic and Irish Gaelic New World
𝕵𝖆𝖈𝖐𝕮𝖍𝖔𝖜: Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese and (Alaskan) Ainu provinces both in the old world and in the new
Autokratoas: Helped with creating the bootleg Polish naming
xarope-alugavel: Russian and Arabic New world & Oceania
Buck Henderson: Scottish American Leviathan province names
Oceanic: Arabic New World
News_12: Massive update for 1.37 (!!)

ORIGINAL WORKSHOP TEXT

[EN/FR/ES/DE/PT] English: This mod adds a dynamic name for every single province in the New World for English, Scottish, French, Castilian, Portuguese, Catalan, Dutch, German, Italian, Flemish, Latin, Turkish, Welsh, Japanese, Norwegian, Danish, Swedish, Polish, Hungarian, Greek and Chinese Cultures. No longer will AI Spanish Canada refuse to name its provinces on the grounds that Spain wasn’t there historically!

Where known, historical names have been used and where not- either a country never colonised it (England in Brazil) or claimed it but never actually settled there (France in most of Louisiana)- appropriate names have been used instead. That means Spanish and Portuguese names are heavy on the saints, English, Scottish and Dutch much less so.

Feedback is welcome! If you think I’m wrong about something or have missed something out, tell me (where possible please link to a source) and I’ll put it right.

Compatibility
1.29 Compatible.
This mod is not Ironman compatible because adding dynamic province names mucks up the checksum. Thanks, Paradox!
Compatible with almost all other mods. This comes with the caveat that if a mod adds loads of provinces in the Americas, the effectiveness of this mod is going to be reduced, but it will still work.
This mod is now ET Compatible!
The only mods it’s not compatible with are other mods that add dynamic province names.
Not currently compatible with random new world.
Compatible with every language of vanilla eu4 and every language mod that uses the Latin alphabet.

1 rate up = 1 smile
1 favorite = 1 tell Paradox to stop dynamic province names changing the checksum
