Hello. A while back, I was coming up with suggestions for national ideas and sending them in the "Suggestions for countries' ideas" discussion. Eventually, I learned how to mod, and put these into my own local copy of Touhou Universalis to test them out, and had great fun.

Recently, I have been playing around with the Lunar Capital nation and putting together some content for them. I have a full set of National Ideas, 6 implemented missions with many more planned and a simple new religion (just with reformed mechanics) with the Lunar Capital as a holy site.

I've tried to take the country in an interesting direction (hopefully) as a militaristic yet isolationist nation. Their Traditions include -300% Spy Network Construction, meaning they cannot fabricate claims (they eventually get +300% Spy Network on idea 3 to remove this) and must rely on the claims they get from missions (there are quite a few!) in order to expand.

Their mission tree, as currently planned, starts their conquests either west, with a naval focus, or east, with a land focus. Once the Dragon Islands and the Moon are both under the nation's control, you then get missions to take the northern coasts of Gensokyo, and from then onwards, begin taking the mainland. It is unlikely that this tree will involve conquest outside of Gensokyo, but it is still being planned out for now, so who knows.

The Lunarian Ideas are similar to Mima's, having some really strong bonuses, but some penalties as well - the aforementioned Spy Network Construction, +5 years of separatism, reduced Promoted Cultures, and losing access to mercenaries.

The religion has +20% Warscore against other religions, a very powerful bonus, but has -2 Tolerance of Heathens. This, with the separatism penalty, means that Lunar Capital will be very good at conquering land, but will also have to work hard to hold it, as it will have to frequently manage rebellions with few peaceful ways to resolve this.

I would like to give the nation a different government type somewhere in the mission tree, but I'm unsure as to which one. I think the Prussian Monarchy is the most fitting, but their neighbour, Sunflower Field, already gets that as a unique government reform.

Lastly, at this point in time, I'm not thinking about releasing this as a mod of a mod. Not only do I not know how to do this, I haven't spoken to Comrade Flan about any of this, so I don't have permission. That being said, if you're reading this, Flan, and you'd like to take a look at anything that I've done in detail, please let me know ;)
