How do you edit a existing country with all of its info and stuff

Alright so srry for asking so many questions but i really need to know how do i edit a nation? I dont wanna add a new one i just wanna edit one. So like by example if i wanted to add a new dominion for the uk where do i go and what i do?

To edit existing nations, you will need to create a new country on the site, and import the existing country's files so that you can edit it.

For example, if you wanted to make Ireland a dominion of the UK, you would need to import the UK's files, and then add Ireland as a dominion.

whats the files i would have to use?

 

You would need the history and common files. When going to import, if you hover over the (i) icons, it will show the path to find the files if you're unsure

 I tried to edit a country but nothing shows up. i followed all the steps


BTW this is what i imported. Is this correct?

Seems to be the correct file.

However, as you're only importing that one file, things like the name and colour won't import. This is the same with the government & leaders, although I haven't gotten around to updating the importer for the new character system with No Step Back.


Flags won't import either, but if the tag is the same, for Switzerland - SWI - then the lack of a flag in the country tool is no problem, as the game will know which flag(s) to assign.
