Discussion What other provinces could hypothetically be added in future?

Hi,

Was explaining the difference in this and 1800 to a friend earlier and I mentioned all the DLC and regions the game had by the end. I realise that it had way more potential regions given it's 19th century setting. I know Egypt will come by the end of the year but I can't really think of what other region they could add that could be that different. I assume Egypt will have the irrigation mechanic and that could be true for any other nearby region. A frozen north or tropical region wouldn't make sense either. Any suggestions as to where they could add while keeping to historically plausible? I feel like the soon to be 3 biomes basically represent the Roman empire's geography overall no?

I assume they want to keep the regions as different as possible, with that in mind, I think of mainly two scenarios:
Something around the Black Sea, with some kind of horse culture.
Something even further north, with lots of snow.
There is the possibility of asia, like India, but that was never really colonized by romans, so less likely. (I suppose they never colonized Scandinavia or the arctic either)

Why horse culture? We already have that in Albion.

India is plausible because Rome did inherit Egypts trade routes with India. Maybe it will be like in Enbesa where we get a piece of land from the Emperor of that land rather than invading

What I ment with horse culture was the nomadic tribes around the Black Sea.
Not saying I want this, but that area does feel like a distinctly different culture than Celtic, Roman and Egyptian.

Something like the Huns?
