This mod is not mean to be historicaly or lore accurate, i just wanted to add more kingdoms and a bit of specialization in troops.
The map used for this mod have a few bugs, while i corrected some minor one, i can't correct all of them.
I'm using this map because it is large enough to handle 11 factions, and the europe map, while absolutly beautiful is too historicaly connoted.
if you find any bugs related to THIS mod, please let me know.
You can use this mod files to make your own if you want, just don't sell it, modding must be free and open source.

Compatibility
This mod is NOT save game compatible since it changes a lot of things, you need to make a new game in sandbox mod to play it.
It will not work with other overhaul mods.
