I'm sad the province limit has reared its ugly head again, the team is doing an impressive job with work-arounds (like the inspired Sardinia/Corsica split).

I see the point that there's mighty swathes of unsettle-able land in the EB period and this is modelled with the Eremos province. I had imagined it being used on the steppes and I believe I read a post suggesting it would be (although in a different way to what I suggested, I had thought of "island" or "pocket" provinces surrounded by Eremos so there were little settled patches or oases or whatever.

I wonder if the Irish province will have a "nomad camp" or a "city" settlement type at game start. Was semi-nomadic herding pretty common there? My memory is dim and vague on Iron Age Britain. Might be a way to model the more extremely non-urban areas culturally un-aligned to urban development, and needing a real culture shift to allow urbanisation?
