Suggestion: Yukari Vassal Changes

Hello o7 As we've restarted a new game of Touhou universalis in multiplayer, I got reminded of Yukari's nation and wanted to compile suggestions that I did a long time ago to make this nation more up to date with the current version of eu4

1 - More of a balance suggestion but the vassal type ""March of Yukari"" is unfortunately pretty weak compared to most recent subject types, this is mainly due to the fact that the march (and I believe this also applies to Satori's vassals) still scale off development the same way as vanilla marches do, and that in the case of Yukari, this only gives -40%, so an extra theorical 160 dev which is nothing now that the AI properly devs its country

Currently, a 400 dev Reimu is sitting at +100% liberty desire, this is still possible to hold loyal but forget about transfering trade power or anything like that

There's a few ways to fix this, all of which would work : A - Add ""Liberty desire from development"" somewhere as a reward, something like 50% would be nice, doubling the dev a march can get B - Straight up change how the dev scales on the [March of Yukari] subject type, at a current rate of 0.25 liberty desire per dev, changing it to 0.1 like a colony would mean it starting to become disloyal at 1k dev, way more manageable even late game C - Remove Liberty desire scaling from dev, afterall, there's an extremely limited amount of march slots for Yukari

As for balancing this pick, I personally wish the [March of Yukari] subject type behaved the exact same as a [Gensokyan March] which also doesn't scale off dev if I recall correctly (Option C), I also wish it was possible for a [March of Yukari] to have some form of diplomatic freedom and this brings me to my second suggestion and one I did months ago when I had just joined the discord

2 - Allow the [March of Yukari] subject type to still declare war to other nations on it's own and to still be able to live it's own life the same way a gensokyan march could (possibly being able to pick whether it can declare war or not is best), this is mostly due to wanting to coop with some other player, as Yukari's mission tree does not actually need land in gensokyo to be owned by herself, any other nation that doesn't have either A. ""Become a great power"" / B. ""Become defender of the faith"" should be able to coop, this then extends to roughly 80% of the nations

3 - My last suggestion is related to Yukari's shogunate, please change the value for a nation to become a march, if I recall correctly, once hitting 300 dev, the event to either split it or make it a march happens, this should at the very least be doubled if not tripled, in fact I'd almost prefer if there was a 4th option, leaving it as is, as nowadays even Ireland if left untouched can reach this level of development

I have not played Chireiden however I believe most of the issues there also apply to Satori's marches Thank you for taking time to read this suggestion o7
