How to properly import an existing nation?
The importer currently doesn't import characters; country leaders, generals, and admirals (although, if you used pre-1.11 files, it will import leaders and generals, I believe).
It doesn't import ideas (government, high command, designers, etc.)
Not too sure why the names aren't importing, I need to look into this.
However, if all you want to do is change Japan's name, nothing else, you will only want the localisation file after exporting the file. Otherwise, you may be overwriting other parts of the country you didn't mean to change.

I'm trying to import Japan so I can edit its file to give it a different name. I am Importing the common and history Japan files and the countries_I_English.yml localisation. The issue is the only information that seems to be imported is the Fascism popularity and nothing else. After importing all the information, when I check the Government, Military, Research, and Misc tabs there is no information there as if I was creating a new country. Am I misunderstanding what the country importing mechanic is able to do or am I messing up a part of the process? Along with editing the name I want to give Japan all of Manchukuo and Mengukuo's states without having to create an etirely new Japan country, or do I have to recreate the country entirely? ty
