I think Confucianism should be added back but not at the expense of Taoism because:
1) Confuciuas was a moral and philosophical teacher not a religous prophet.
2) Most people that follow Confucianistic teachings are follower Chinese Traditional Beliefs aka Taoism and Buddhism.
Actually most people in China follow a combination of Chinese Folklore, Taoism and Confucianism under the label of Toaism and Shenism.
My solution to this problem is that since in this mod we can add additional religions without removing preexisting religions, we should add the following relgions.
- Confucianism
- Shi'ite Islam
- Orthodoxy
- Hellenism
Also the Ancient Egyptians should respawn after the Arabs move their capital to Baghdad (10 turns later lets say or so), and become the (Shi'ite, if you include the religion) Fatimids, while the Arabs become the Abbasids controlling Mesopotamia/Syria;
It makes sense to add a respawn of Egypt. Heres wat I think should be done:
Name: Fattimids/Ayyubids/Malmuk Sultanate/Egypt
Leaderheads: Al-Muizz (import from Soi), Saladin, Muhammad Ali Pasha
UU: ?? (Perhaps the Malmuks (from SOI)) or Berber Calvary
Any Suggestion
UB: ??
UHV:- Control all of North Africa, Palestine, Syria and Hejaz: By 1000 ad
- Make Cairo the largest and most cultured city in 1300 ad
-
Any Suggestions (Perhaps something to do with defending/defeating europe or the Ottomans)
Preferred Civic: Any Suggestions??
Start: 900 AD
Flip Area: Egypt and Eastern Libya; so most probably it will include Cairo, Alexandria and Benghazi
End: N/A
Additional Info:
Name Changes:
Fatimids from 900 to 1100 ad
Ayyubid: from 1100 to 1250
Malmuk: from 1250 to 1500
Vassals of Ottomans:Khedivate of Egypt
Vassals of Europeans (British): Kingdom of Egypt
Modern day Egypt: Arab Republic of Egypt.
Balancing Information:
-Stability hit during 1500 to 1900.
-Should not be too strong that the Ottomans cannot conquer them.
- If weak they should be likely to become Ottoman Vassal before 1800 or English vassals after 1800
- If dead they should have a rebirth in 1850 (independence from Ottomans) and maybe 1940 (Independence from British)
If u dont like some of the ideas, feel free to suggest or change. I just thought of these to get the ball rolling
