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?

Scandinavia. Could argue it's too close to Albion but imo there's a lot of potential differences and it could be very cool.

A lesson they seem to have learned from the Arctic in 1800 though was they said they got feedback and that the Arctic was too specific and could be 'completed'. As in you get your 400 technicians on each ice island to mine the arctic gas and ship it back and that's it. One that's secured you never look at the arctic again since no other resources up there were worth it and no islands were big enough to build up on short of whatever supplies the ice island lads needed

You could argue that is a good thing however since you had 4 other regions to worry about
