As always we are happy to see map suggestions! I realize these likely take some time both to look into and write up and we really appreciate that this forum has so much activity despite that :)

Some pointers for what we look for that I’ve mostly posted before but can be repeated:

*In general when posting suggestion for ownership changes please add a reference of some kind. This is a good way for a suggestion to be lent more credence (or at least to be evaluated based on what you used to make it if/when we look at it).
In this particular case I am pretty confident in the ownership of the Konkan coast up to the 1480s so I would want a reference to see what we might have missed for instance.

*When you suggest breaking up a tag suggesting what to do with all its constituent parts helps a lot for the same reason. There is always a reason a conglomorated tag exists in the first place and if that is not addressed we could not break it up.
In this case there are a whole bunch of states in eastern Baluchistan in the timeline but at our start I only know of the Rinds, and so they are who currently rule that tag.
For western baluchistan we have overall very little data.:)
There are other examples elsewhere in the world even if we are cutting down on them as soon as we can.

Mind this is not necessarily the only reason for such tags though, but any suggestion to break one up should try to look to the full picture :)

*Likewise when adding revolters. Venad and Travancore are the same state but you likely have a reason for wanting one as a revolter, if it’s not in your post we could only guess what it was however :)

Also: that’s not where cannanore is even if they did often control the lakhadives ;)
 
Lahknor and Lakhnaur are different places. Like many of the place names in eu it’s not a current term :)

Ruler and advisor names in eu are not in any way related to culture but are listed per country and this causes the problems you are seeing.
As for Bengal Delta, that name is what it is because there are so many important cities within that province, depending on the start date the capital of that province changes to reflect that (try later starts if you want to see it). By all means if you have a more relevant regional name we are interested in that.
It is also a province that could easily be broken in more pieces if we do an Indian map revision at some point but given the concentration of important cities I have a feeling the name would be hard to replace entirely.
 
This is a huge topic and and ample room for improvement, but to what extent PDX is willing to add tags. For example there is provision for Bahamani successor states in EU4, (Berar, Golconda, Bijapur, Ahmednagar, Bidar) there is no similar provision for Vijayanagar Nayak successor states (Senji, Tanjore, Madura, Ikkeri, though Mysore and Kheladi can be seen.)

If you have suggestions for Nayak kingdoms we'd love to have them. Especially for the many small ones in the inland it was very hard to find good data during AoW (I know this as I was the one to do the rework at that time).
As for how many tags we could or could not add, those are things for us to worry about, the suggestions forum is here to give us ideas :)
