-Reorganized all new world native tribes.
-Created dozens of new tags in South America breaking up the huge tribal kingdoms.
-All tribes that are related by culture currently share a common map culture. (Originally I hadn't created colors for south america yet but felt it was such a clean look I extended it to north america.)
- New Mughal Culture they are a Iranian/central Asian culture that rules over their Indian empire. Currently make up less than a percent of Mughalstan but control 75% of the power.
- Adjusted colonization speed. This adjustment lowers the max speed without touching the minimum speed. So shouldn't affect small nations under 5 million population but will slow down huge nations with millions of pops from colonizing so fast.

- Andalusians Indian ocean territory has been given to the remade tag of dutch east indies to tone down their economic power a bit as they are a bit too strong right now.

0.20

- New "Monument"
- Great Port is a special building I have been toying with since version 0.1 but instead just increased starting ports in the states I had been trying it. Well in 1.2 the AI is now obsessed with downsizing ports in their capitals and despite weeks of trying to prevent it I couldn't get the AI to stop which caused issues with immersion with these great ports turning into minor anchorages. So I introduced new Monument "Great Port" in Genoa, Venice and Konstantinople it is equivalent to a level 5 port with some extra bonuses.

- Balance
- Adjusted trade routes throughout the game removing unprofitable ones and creating new more profitable ones.
- Improved starting economies throughout the game making sure nations started with most profitable production methods and removing/adding buildings where it made sense.
- Adjusted starting relations to be less extreme example -150 in 0.19 will be -90 etc.
- Removed the more aggressive AI modifications I believe 1.2 is more aggressive as is.
- Did a balance pass at the mods unique techs and modifiers making use of new 1.2 mechanics.
