I Made France COMPLETELY French in Victoria 3 - Victoria 3 1.7.5 Guide

It’s not called revanchisme unless it comes from the Alsace-Lorraine region of France; otherwise it’s just sparkling irredentism.

No it's not only the ideas to recover but also to ger revanche

[@QasqaZhol]

To quickly assimilate or populate provinces that are not of your primary culture, use the best production methods on buildings in non-core provinces and use the reverse in your highly populated core provinces. That way, you can forcefully push your primary culture population into non-primary culture regions, further accelerating assimilation. I once had a run playing the ottomans, and using that technique, plus migration control, religious school and cultural exclusion rules, i have managed to make every province in the empire turkish ones.

I really wish there was a tier 5 tech which turned electricity into a regular good. Something like national grid

[@genuscorvid]

it's a shame paradox experimented with adding regional markets based off contiguous land connections and decided it would be too difficult. it would mean electricity could be a single market good for all of continental France without the silliness of electricity produced in Ile de France being consumable in Guiana, which is why they added local goods in the first place

[@manana1444]

The "[1.7] Power Plants+" mod does something I would say is even better. It splits electricity into two type of goods, High Voltage that is generated by power plants in later techs, and Electricity proper, that can be used by buildings. HV can be traded between states, however the only way to convert it to EL is to build a El. grid, which can only be built in a state with a power plant or next to a state that already has a grid.

2 Gameplay tweaks i hope PDX considers in the next patch: 1) Discriminated pops in their homeland states will assimilate if the state is incorporated (gives you an incentive to incorporate conquered states and make assimilation feel like a more impactful mechanic. Can also give a debuff to the rate at which discriminated pops in their homeland assimilate, modified by education institutions, etc. 2) Loyalists get a buff to assimilation (since radicals already receive a corresponding debuff)

35:20 yeah thats the exact idea behind unemployment benefits in real life. if the state provides a proper baseline for you to survive without needing a job, wage and worker rights negations get significantly easier for the workers. The threat of being fired is not that potent anymore when you can still live in your apartment without starving Edit. also, I dont know how vic3 calculates wages, but wouldnt welfare payments above the legal minimum wage simply drag the effective minium wage up?

[@gamer1X12]

TLDR: It depends. Yes, as business would have no choice but to increase pay or benefits to incentive people to work rather than lounge around all day, if UBI is higher than a months working income. But also no, as the unemployment wave would mean very little would get produced or distributed--cant have a consumerist welfare state if theres nothing to consume. The shortages and economic slowdown that would no doubt occur would likely give business a lot of power, if they could survive the initial productivity losses.

[@Tarkusarkusar]

In Vic 3, the minimum wage is calculated based on the average wealth of all pops in the state where the business operates. If you do elevate welfare to be above the minimum wage, it would creep the wages up a bit, since average wealth in the state would increase, it would just be prohibitively expensive, and probably require you to tax more, which defeats the whole purpose of it.

[@sephikong8323]

In practice, no, it more so happened because French was the language used in government administration and in business, so the parents that could get their children educated did so in French rather than in their local language because that would give them better opportunity, and the phenomenon just exploded once education became mandatory. It's true that after the Franco Prussian war there was a huge wave of nationalism that tried to push linguistic unification, but the phenomenon was already underway for a long time by now, just mostly confined to the upper and middle classes, and the idea that this was done forcefully against the will of the locals is something that was forged in the 20th century by particularists and independentists as in practice, it was genuinely done in great part from the ground up rather than top down. Something to bear in mind also in the case of the Occitans is that they never saw themselves as a distinct ethnic group either, just French that spoke a different version of the language that wouldn't land you too far in life, so no reason to resist that trend either.

If you do not mind playing with mods there is "Assimilate Discriminated and Homeland Pops Naturally" that allows you to assimilate accepted cultures even in their homelands, however at slower pace.

You just have to keep expanding your economy to get to 1B GDP. The more construction you get, the easier it is.

[@Tarkusarkusar]

I think a system of tolerance between individual cultures would make more sense, and then the laws of the country could just determine whether wages can be reduced and political power removed from a pop. For example, a multiculturalist France would have equal wages, and equal political power for all cultures, but then a building run by French capitalists might prefer to hire pops of a culture that the French culture has more tolerance for. The only problem is that I imagine this would increase the already absurd amount of calculation put on the CPU, causing yet more lag in the game.

[@monsieursp00ky44]

@@Tarkusarkusar Not really, it strikes me as a larger problem of realism vs feasibility in the game, particularly with regards to how Laws not being enforced effectively isn't a concept. Another example is how although Russia officially outlawed it in 1861, it didn't fully get rid of Serfdom until 1895, but as far as Victoria 3 is concerned if the Tsar in St. Petersburg says Serfdom is over then all the Boyars from Minsk to Vladivostok just throw their hands up and go "welp guess it's over lmao".

Hi Tarkusarkusar big fan, wanted to make a small but possibly meaningful correction, at 2:00 you say that taboos/obsessions are the only way that culture matters once you have multiculturalism, I don't think this is entirely correct.

The reason they forbid assimilation of cultures in homelands is because of Hungary. To be more exact, Hungarians in Victoria 2 at release. You see, there was an issue that kept happening: Austria kept basically assimilating all of their minority pops+the hungarians* back at Vic2 Release. In order to prevent this from happening, they would change it to massively penalize assimilation in provinces that had a core with that culture as a primary culture. The issue also happened over in the Ottomans to a lesser degree. Coming to Vicky 3, this still remains true so as to make sure that Austria and the Ottomans remain empires that must deal with keeping happy lots of minority pops. Basically, blame the Balkans actually managing to NOT be a powder keg for it.
