- If the country has a name that is similar or the same as another country or a concept more generally, add a note about it with the {{hatnote|...}} template. E.g., for Iberia:
- This article is about the country in the Caucasus. For the formable nation called Greater Iberia in Hispania, see 20px Greater Iberia.
Below is a template for country pages. All instances of "timeless" for "Version" and "SVersion" templates should be replaced with the version at the time of writing. Follow any instructions in comments (<!-- They look like this on the editing page -->). Not all countries will or should use every section.

Country name is a RANK in REGION that is [insert brief historical, geopolitical, and/or strategic context]. Short (at most two paragraphs) description of situation in 450 A.U.C. (e.g. geographic location, starting and diplomatic situation, strengths/weaknesses, background and history during the game's timeframe, possible goals/ambitions). Use the flag template (e.g. {{flag|Rome}} if referring to other nations.
Contents
Name
If the country has alternative names as the result of events, decisions, or missions (not to be confused with forming a new nation), list and briefly describe them and their requirements here. Link to the relevant events/decisions/missions as well. Optional, and add only if the country has alternative names at all.
Missions
- Main article: COUNTRY ADJ missions
If the country has country or culture-specific missions, add a link to the missions page using the main article template (e.g. {{main|Roman missions}}) and write a brief summary of what the missions are about, particularly important effects like forming a new nation, changing government or culture, or releasing or acquiring new subjects. Preferably, describe all possible country-specific or cultural that the country can get, including those that only become available with specific requirements (e.g. the Greek cultural missions). Otherwise, just link to and briefly mention the generic missions, or omit the section altogether.
Events
- Main article: COUNTRY ADJ events
If the country has no events, leave out this section. If they've got 5 or more, put the events on a separate page named "country adjective events" and link it using {{main|Country adjective events}} and write a short description of what the events are about, generally one short section for each major event chain or group of events. Example event:
The Ascendance of Rome

Please help with verifying or updating this infobox. It was last verified for version 1.4. |
The efforts of our more belligerent senators have succeeded in persuading the majority of the Curia, and even the people of Rome, that Italia is ours. The Campus Martius is alive with the cries of our confident soldiers, and fresh haruspices reinforce the gods assent for war each day.
The end of the recent conflict with our enemies in Etruria and Samnium has left our Republic as the strongest power on the Italian peninsula. Our victory has firmly convinced our feudatories in the value of supporting our cause, and has shown other small states the value of being on our side.
Roman settlers are now moving on their own accord into the regions to our north and east, establishing new colonies, expecting our protection. All look to us, from Samnium and Etruria, to Sicily and Carthage, awaiting our next move.

Formation and release requirements
If the country is a formable nation, their formation event/decision/mission task goes here. If possible, use a transclusion from the appropriate page rather than copy the event/decision/task directly (this may require adding the transclusion tags to that page). A map showing the requirements and claims given is preferred, but not necessary. If forming the country gives a different flag than the one it started with, that can be displayed in this section as well using the FormableCountry template. Leave out the section if the country is not formable. A typical formation requirements section might look like this:
{{box wrapper|justify-content=space-between}}
{{#lst:Formable Nations|form_iberia}}
[[File:Form Greater Iberia.png|thumb|600px|Formation requirements for Greater Iberia. Fully coloured territories are required, while hatched territories will be claimed after formation.]]
{{end box wrapper}}
which becomes:
Form Greater Iberia
The Greeks know the land we inhabit as Iberia. As civilization flourishes, and we become more aware of the lay of the land, political environment, and cultural similarities of our neighbors, it becomes apparent that this land of Hiberia belongs with us, and not the greedy foreign invaders from the east.

Effects

If a country can be formed through multiple decisions/events/missions, put them all here, each with their own individual subsection.
If the country is releasable, the relevant event/decision/mission task should also go in subsections here, with the same format to any formation subsections. Strong recommended if the country does not exist at the start of the game (which means that the releasing event/decision/mission task is usually the main way it appears), but generally optional if the country does exist at the start of the game (unless there is something particularly notable about the way it is released) and leave out if the country is not an event/decision/mission-specific releasable at all.
Decisions
This section lists the unique country and culture specific decisions a nation has. Brief descriptions are desired but not necessary. If the country has no decisions, leave out this section. If the country has country-specific decisions that are shared between multiple countries (e.g. country formation decisions), add a transclusion from the appropriate page. Country-specific decisions should be placed here and then transcluded into a new section in the decisions page.
As a an example, we can use the transclusion
{{#lst:Formable Nations|reunite_alexanders_empire_decision}}
to get:
Reunite Alexander's Empire
That one power could not possibly come from any dynasty but our own. Only a family that respects the Argead traditions can legitimately claim its legacy.

Note that transclusion tags may need to be added to the decision page if they do not exist already.
Civil war releasables
If the nation is associated with a specific releasable that only appears in a civil war (e.g. 
Eastern Rome or the 
Satrap Coalition), describe them in a section of the page for their "parent" country, including a FormableCountry template (particularly if it has its own flag) to briefly overview the country and the relevant events/decisions/mission tasks with the same format as in the formable/releasable nations section. As with that section, use transclusions when possible.
Diplomacy
List all subjects, guarantees, allies, etc. that a country has. As with all references to other countries, always use the flag template (e.g. {{flag|Rome}}. If a country has a large number (>3) of subjects (or other category of treaties), a bullet point list is more readable then writing it out, e.g.:
Rome starts with 4 feudatories:
Details about other neighbours, particularly larger rivals, can also go here.
Population
Describe the main culture and religion groups of the country, particularly if they differ from the state culture/religion, along with a brief geographical description of how they are distributed. A brief analysis of its population and cultural/religious situation can also be put here.
Cultural privileges
If the country begins with any cultural privileges at the start of the game (e.g. integrated cultures, non-default civic rights, modifiers from cultural decisions), list them here.
Unique mechanics
If the country has any other unique mechanics (e.g. 
Syracusae's mercenary states, 
Sparta's unique province investments, or 
Rome's republican laws and factions), describe and link them here. Use a transclusion from the appropriate page whenever possible.
Unique deities
If the country has access to any country or culture-specific deities, list them here. Provide a link to and use a transclusion from the relevant religion page instead of copying and pasting the table, e.g.:
{{main|Hellenic#Spartan deities}}
{{#lsth:Hellenic|Spartan deities}}
which becomes:
- Main article: Hellenic#Spartan deities
These deities are available to Sparta or countries that were formed from Sparta, as long as it is Hellenic, or polytheistic and has enough Hellenic pops / controls the deity's holy site, and require the
