Hey all,
Continuing the newly found tradition of the "What to do with..." series of questions I bring up the topic of India. Brought to us by Paradox in the aptly named "Rajas of India" DLC we have a sub-region of the world that we're honestly not sure if anyone, or at least the majority, of players wanted.
First off, I'll be candid with my own stance. No one on the team, both currently and in the past, has any real knowledge on the area nor do we have any motivation to build onto that area. Personally speaking I found it to be a rather strange addition to the game to say the very least. As such it's been almost entirely left to how it is in vanilla, minus the trade route that I myself added despite my reservations. It's something that has bothered me for quite some time as personally I find having a rather large area of the map add nothing of value to the game that also eats up a slice of resources. To an extent this was also true of West Africa, hence my own drive to improve that region of the world.
My question goes as follows; What should be done about India?
If it were to be removed, we would also not be opposed to adding it back in far later should we actually find that people can both contribute content and give enough support to bring it back.
Perhaps those points is just me though and I welcome opinions on the subject, opposing or otherwise.
I have attached a strawpoll for people to participate in, so we can get an idea of what people think number wise. After all, if a large majority of people want to keep it then that's the end of the debate as keeping it as is, obviously, is rather easy.

My question goes as follows; What should be done about India?
- Maintain status quo, keeping in mind that in the most likely scenario vanilla's version of it is about all will ever have there
- Cut India, but do it in such a way that allows the easy creation of a sub-mod to re-add it for those that do enjoy the area.
- Suggest an Idea
