With the new unify culture mechanic I think that Polish, Lithuanian, Latvian, Estonian, Belarusian and Ukranian should be culture groups formed by cultures that speak the same dialect

I would add the following cultures (not monocultural):
- Pomeranian Universal - Pomeranian, Kashubian and Polabian
- Silesian Universal - Silesian, German Silesian and Lusatian
- Sarmatian - Greater Poland, Masovian and Lithuanian
- Ruthenian - all Ukrainian and Belarusian cultures
- Baltic - all Balts cultures and Prussian

The only minor issue is that we already have a culture with this name, representing Kyiv and Pereiaslav.
- 3
Yeah, there could be other instances of the same name being used for both a culture and a cultural group (like, probably, Persian). I wonder whether this will cause any issues with the cultural unification mechanics. If so, it might be necessary to rename the Ruthenian culture to "Kyivan."
- 2
They could change the name to "Poljani" - East Slavic tribe inhabiting the area of Kiev.
- 1
No, absolutely irrelevant for 1337.
In this case Kyivan would be better, as proposed above.

Either way, it's better than Ruthenians which is a general term for Eastern Slavs - who, culturally united, should be called Ruthenians.
I would be tempted to add Zaporozhyian (or Ulich) culture to the Wild Fields territory - as a small East Slavic group in the south of modern Ukraine.

Cultures may belong to multiple culture groups, so the best solution would be if we have Ruthenian culture group for all of them, and Belarusian/Ukrainian groups for northern and southern Ruthenian cultures, respectively. So everyone can roleplay and unify what he wants
Polesian culture should belong to both Belarusian and Ukrainian groups. Whoever unifies it first, it then goes to Belarusian or Ukrainian.

I wonder if dynamic naming is possible.
E.g. the top unifying culture of Muscovy would be Russian (with other guys mere 'West Russians'), while the top unifying culture of Kiev would be Ruthenian (with other guys mere 'North' and 'East Ruthenians').
E.g. the top unifying culture of Muscovy would be Russian (with other guys mere 'West Russians'), while the top unifying culture of Kiev would be Ruthenian (with other guys mere 'North' and 'East Ruthenians').
I hope there will be a choice at least: accept the new name (default, always used by AI) or select a name of one of cultures to be unified.
E.g. someone wants to make the whole Ukraine instantly Volhynian or the whole Russia instantly Novgorodian.

My small proposal for areas of Ruthenia
Unfortunately, no matter how I tried, I couldn't make the entire area of Polesye work. Its definition is just too big, taking half of Volhynia, and going up to Bryansk
So currently I named only Belarusian parts as Polesia (sorry @Kotyk-durkotyk ), however, an alternative will be to name it Black Ruthenia(debated even if it was in Ruthenia or Russia) and not have this area at all. Or East and West Polesia (with Ovruch and Chornobyl provinces), but that won't align with any divisions
I tried to follow those borders (Minsk didn't work out for my taste)

It's not bad at all too! But RIP Black Ruthenia, I would miss it
The only thing I really strongly oppose is Red Ruthenia including Chelm province and Belz.
In my opinion what historically belonged to the Duchy of Volyn = Volhynia area.
I understand that it was based on the Polish-Lituanian border, but it happened just due to the fact that Poland and Lithuania had some conflicts for the Halychian-Volhynian realm, and Poland simply took that part of Volhynian lands.
Lombardian cities temporarily occupied by Tuscany do not become Tuscanian, and here for me it's the same.
The political border between the duchies prefectly represents the historical border between the Halychian and Volhynian lands and I think that cultures and areas should follow this too.
As well as provinces, because the internal division of Halych and Volhynia is quite well described in chronicles. Like Krypiakevych (1984) has the respective descriptions and sources for every Halychian and Volhynian province in detail:
That is why I am disappointed about Halych and Volhynia have irrelevant province setup too for 1337. The game is not going to be railroaded to repeat the history every time.
Otherwise the map looks good and consistent

Yeah, I agree it's a debatable topic. Do developers want precise on-time historical accuracy, or existing divisions over the game timeframe? I went from the side of Polish divisions + "cool area borders feel" (I can't disagree that the looks did influence me)It's not bad at all too! But RIP Black Ruthenia

And I believe it is better to portray Red Ruthenia as it was for majority of the game’s timeframe.
I think if developers want to go with your suggestion for Volhynia / Red Ruthenia split, it will also work fine. Here is how it will look

I feel like these cultures should be unifiable with the kingdom rank though.
- 2
Yeah I agree, they should probably be tech-locked to the age of Absolutism though

You can unify culture group ONLY if you are empire rank so it is already implemented.
If you are lucky to survive it will take a few hundreds of game years to grow to empire as Kyiv or Halych or even weaker tags.
- 1
Yeah, I know, I'm saying that's silly, maybe west Slavic should be unified at empire rank but Polish should be unifiable at kingdom rank.
Why? Doesn't make any historical sense. I agree an extra barrier is necessary, I would propose you need 100% cultural relations and acceptance with all the other cultures as an example.

I spent some time with the sources on Ruthenian noble families (flavour Ukrainian name – shliakhta) in Lithuania and Poland in the XIV – XVI centuries and created some name and surname lists for better character creation that can be used for regional Ruthenian flavour and cultures of Ukrainian dialect in the game.
I used the official spelling, described in this post. This way it is consistent with the language, game logic and location names.
I. First names – all Ukrainian cultures
Cultures: Halychian, Volhynian, Polesian, Ruthenian, Severian.
II. Shliakhta families (surnames) with kniaz (duke) title – all Ukrainian cultures
Cultures: Halychian, Volhynian, Polesian, Ruthenian, Severian.
III. Halychian shliakhta families
Culture: Halychian.
IV. Volhynian and Polesian shliakhta families
Cultures: Volhynian, Polesian.
V. Kyivan and Severian shliakhta families
Cultures: Ruthenian (Kyivan), Severian.
VI. Cossack and commoners surnames – all Ukrainian cultures
Cultures: Halychian, Volhynian, Polesian, Ruthenian, Severian.
Feel free to correct any mistakes and enlarge the lists!

Nice lists! Havimg actual families related to specific cultures is much more flavorful than EU4.
Maybe knaz sunames may be also Polotsk and Smolensk cultures because they were important in all Lithuania.

Sure, but for those cultures they would be transliterated in different dialect(s). That would nicely represent different branches of those families
But I am not aware of exact spelling rules for them.
