Hail, Columbia! - United States Flavor Pack

for Victoria 3 1.8.*

Hail, Columbia! is a United States Flavor Pack, including overhauled and expanded journal entries, interest groups, and characters, as well as tons of new events unique to the USA and North America.

Requires the Community Mod Framework. Load this mod after (below) the CMF in your load order.

• Overhauled map of Native North America, including many more indigenous nations than vanilla, as well as new state traits. Claims are assigned appropriately to prevent weird colonization. The American west will take much longer to be fully colonized by the United States than in vanilla.
  
• Overhauled Indian Removal and Indian Wars content, with custom Journal Entries, expanded events, and new characters extending Indian history up to the 1900s: Seminole Wars, Oregon Trail, Red Cloud's War, the Ghost Dance, the Sequoyah Constitution.
  
• Overhauled Slavery Debate JE, including the full historical lead-up to the civil war: Missouri Compromise, Wilmot Proviso, Compromise of 1850, Kansas-Nebraska Act, Bleeding Kansas, Scott v Sandford. The civil war can be triggered at different times or be split along different borders based on the results.
  
• Overhauled Reconstruction content with new events and several final outcomes. Station federal troops in the south to enforce equality for the Freedmen, or make a deal with the devil and give the Redeemers free reign to impose Jim Crow.
  
• Gilded Age JE showing the rise of corruption and Trusts in the United States, followed by the Progressive Era of reform and new ideologies.
  
• New permanent journal entry for the US tracking the influence of Manifest Destiny. You can choose to avoid expansion and entanglements, stick to the historical borders, or promote Manifest Destiny to new heights and incorporate the entire continent into your great republic.
  
• Mormon content, including the exodus to Deseret and the Utah War.
  
• New flavor events for the US, such as the Seneca Falls Convention and the Great Chicago Fire, as well as various american natural disasters like wildfires and tornadoes. The mod includes over 100 new events in total.
  
• Overhauled Ideologies and Traits for American IGs, including new alternate IG Traits unlocked during a playthrough.
  
• Historical agitators, commanders, and politicians for America, including every historical president from Martin Van Buren to FDR.
  
• Tweaks to the american political system, including a Term Limit for presidents, dynamic party names, and Constitutional precedents.

• More Social & Political Movements (Third Great Awakening, Social Gospel)
  
• More Economic & Labor Events (Coal Wars, Roaring 20s, Panics)
  
• More Foreign Policy Events (Great White Fleet, Panama Rebellion)
