Add a new government that has a fixed dynasty of Yamato while Japan. Represent the Emperor as an aspect of Japan, possibly just like the Gurus of Sikhism.ģ.

Why should anyone ever form Japan unless they are going for 2 achievements? It seems there is NO POINT OTHERWISE. No actual Daimyo or Shogun would ever outright replace the Emperor unless he wasn't Shinto himself, and did not like the Emperor.īut from a gameplay only perspective, why should the unique Japanese features in eu4 go away because we FORMED JAPAN? Is it balance? Because I really don't see how forming Japan is really any different from owning the Island as whoever you took it as, other than the rank change. What if the Japanese nation is based on neither of those? Still wouldn't make sense. If the country of Japan in eu4 is based on Meiji Japan, why does the daimyo/shogun's dynasty stay? In my mind, there is absolutely no way it can possibly be based on this. When Japan was united, the shogunate didn't just vanish, and the Shoguns didn't just kick the little hat of the emperor's head and say "Well, I get that you, Emperor, are descended from godhood and we are your servants and protectors and all, but I am the emperor now because I don't want to be shogun now that I have all of Japan." Let's say the emperor still stayed the figurehead, and there were somehow two emperors. If this Formible Japan is modeled after the Tokugawa Shogunate, then the Shogunate(government) should NOT be abolished. The two decisions to form Japan abolish the Shogunate government and make you an Empire.
