The pirates will probaly be in the game, and playable, maybe blackbeaard will be in it

You might want to reconsider the title Britain.

England and Scotland, at the start date we're still very much independant of each other. Scotland did have it's own dreams of colonial Empire, but which floundered amid bankruptcy and bad planning.

Having the two nations in is far better, methinks.

That would be Great Britain your thinking, Britain means just England, and we probaly wont include Scotland because it didnt have a lot to do with America back then.

Britain is a title used to describe the geagraphical area of the Isles. The United Kingdom of Great Britain is the political unit, which was far from reality in in the 1550's.

So perhaps you should make it, England?

Thanks for pointing that out Bopa, changed now.

No probs!

May I suggest Pequots and Narragansetts? Otherwise, the Goyana Shegoa is going to be able to move east too easily, and then the Hurons are screwed... okay, MORE screwed... ;)

FYI Britain (male form) or Britannia (female form) refers to the parts of the United Kingdom conquered by the Romans (modern day England and Wales). It later included Scotland either after James VI (King of Scots) became King James I of England in 1606 or after the Acts of Union 1707 were passed (combining the Scottish and English Parliaments).

Ireland is not part of Britian. Though the whole of Ireland used to be part of the United Kingdom, due to the pressure from terrorist groups (such as the IRA) the Catholic Republic of Ireland is now independent, while Protestant Northern Ireland is still part of the United Kingdom (the religions were mentioned because they played an important role in decided which parts of Ireland stayed in the United Kingdom).

Confusingly the term British Isles refers to the Britain and the islands surrounding it (including all of Ireland).

What i am about to say may seem extremely ignorant and stupid but what about belgium? seriously what about belgium? i mean, this isn't my exact sphere of expertese or anything, but i know they owned allot of colonies in africa... Feel free to shoot me down over this.

Only probelm is we do exactly have heaps of Africa yet, this mod is mostly about AMerica, not Europe or Africa.

You should be sure to include Portugal. The Treaty of Tordesillas (1494) split the New World between the Spanish and the Portuguese. Because of this Treaty the Portuguese took control of Brazil and held it for a long time. Any New World map would require the Portuguese as the had the single largest landholding in South America
