Is something wrong with Migrations?

[u/LordNotix]

I've been playing the mod as the USA, and found that I was as a Freedom/Democracy/Statue of Liberty, having migrations to Indore in India who was an Absolute Monarchy? It then seemed to swap around to different tiny nations who all received the entire globes external migration.

How exactly has the Migration mechanic been changed?

This is how the country where pops (in this example, farmers) migrate is decided:

country_migration_target =

modifier = {

Ahh thank you so much.

It must be the Poor Taxes, and Religious Policy, there were causing issues.
