Re-Enable Visigothic Culture Split

Mod is 1.14+ compatible, as long as Paradox do not remove the base event from game files
Official Paradox Rules pre-1.5, but auto-triggered in 795 AD instead of 867 AD game start date

Preamble for Modders: I took me more than a day to figure out that you can't test a Steam version of the mod if you have the local one (develop version) still in your mod directory... Even if the "develop" one is disabled in playset.

The mod aim to trigger the split between 795 AD and 800 AD and do not trigger if the game started after 800 AD since the culture has already splitted after that start date. In most case, the split will happen in 795AD unless you started the game in 798 AD (obviously). You can counter the split if you rule more than 80% of Iberia (default Paradox rule) when the Event is triggered. So if you started your game in 750 AD and conquered 80% of Iberia, you should be able to deny the culture split.

The mod do not modify game files, it's a yearly check that trigger the same "official" Paradox event previously disabled. The condition of geographic culture split are the same as before.

Theses are the Paradox rules for conversion :
Rules are applied to counties, not duchies nor kingdoms,
so a Mozarab county will not become Andalusians !

• Muslim-ruled counties become Andalusian.
  
• All visigothic counties/rulers in Catalonia become Catalan
  
• Any visigothic counties/rulers in southern France become Occitan
  
• All visigothic counties/rulers in Asturia/Leon become Asturleonese
  
• All visigothic counties/rulers in Aragon become Aragonese
  
• All visigothic counties/rulers in Navarra become Basque
  
• All visigothic counties/rulers in Galicia/Portugal become Galician
  
• Finally, all remaining visigothic counties/rulers in Iberia become Castilian
  
• The visigoths of Tangiers are no longer present in the first place (they left in 600!)
  -> There is no official rules to convert Visigoths in Tangiers, if there is any, there will stay Visigothic since they are not in any checked region
  
• Any Visigothic outside of Ibera or South-Western France will not be converted

This mod is save game compatible (prior to 800 AD), compatible with 1.14 and should be ironman/achievement compatible.

The mod will only be effective if you play a bookmark prior to 800 AD, it's possible with
769 Early Middle Ages Bookmark
or
Bookmarks+
or even
More Bookmarks+
since the event will never be triggered after 800 AD

Load order should'nt matter since I did not modify original game files and I use an event which is still in the base game files at the moment (nov 17 2024).

Since the event is in the base game, there is also no need for additionnal translation.

its useless to download this mod if you start with a 800 AD bookmark or later

NDLR; Use this mod if you play a bookmark prior to 800 AD, otherwise you will stay with the Visigothic culture until 1453 AD

Because Paradox split the culture only if you start your game after 800 AD, for example in 867 AD. So if you use a modded bookmark prior to 800 AD and want the culture to split, you will need this mod., otherwise, the will still be remaining Visigoth in 1453 AD (lol).

Then you should checkout my other mod Iranian Intermezzo in 821 AD
