This is the first time I'm making an actual mod request rather than getting on it myself, and no worries, I don't plan on making a habit of it :) This is just something that I would like to exist both for my own use and for other modders, but I really do not have time to get to myself amidst my other projects.

My request/idea: a tiny map, in the order of 100 provinces, for the purpose of testing other mods. Features nothing but vanilla cultures and religions, vanilla Papacy, et cetera. It would have every terrain type in it somewhere, barrier mountain ranges, portgages, straits, navigable rivers, innavigable lakes, and so on and so forth. One or two of everything.

The setup would feature pretty much just the most important vanilla titles (HRE, Byzantines, Western protectorate), and the single bookmark would have, besides those empires, also some independent kingdoms, some duchies, some counties, some tribes, some nomads, some merchant republics, some theocracies, a Silk Road, et cetera.

One of everything. Doesn't need to feature every single vanilla culture or religion in the setup, but at least one pagan religion that's easy to reform, blablabla.

The idea is that such a tiny map would load and run lightning fast. Want to test out how a genetic system would behave over fifteen generations? Run this mod for ten minutes! Are you testing out bloodline decay, realm implosion mechanics, or just want to figure out how often your event with a huge trigger will occur in practise? Tiny Testing World it is!

There's the pitch. Hope someone more versed in this kind of moddery is open to giving it a try :)
