"Age of Colonization 2"

This should be update 1.....something but colonies need more of a feel to them, I once said in one of my previous points that this deserves a post of it's own and here I am.

Colonies should have names specified to their location, like "Ming Colombia" or "British Mexico" or that kind of stuff, away from that point, colonization is very difficult in the base game and you need to use around 74000 on your first province and after that it's like 64000 and I know it lowers with your tech level but still...anyways I think that founding your first province should be used with money, but like 40000 or 30,000 enough to get even the little countries interested in colonizing, now for every other province, it should be made with.....colonization points!

Colonization Points (or maybe Founding Points?) should be earned based on your experience throught your gameplay like going into more wars grants you more Colonization Points, making alliances, vassalising nations, declaring independence to your Lord, all of these could give you more Colonization Points.

Edit : Also Another Point I'd like to add is how maybe Colonies Should be countries, like EU4 , where you name your colonies, this makes my "Ming Columbia" and "British Mexico" irrelevent but this allows much more creativity and the ai could use names like Columbia, Mexico, Brazil, Canada, north america; that sort of stuff, and this expands your sense of colonization since now you have to be careful of revolts and rebels since now, with your custom name, it is recognized as a country, and maybe half of it 's resources are available to you or all of them, but this makes it so that custom civs are created when colonizing instead of how I did it manually in my mamluk gameplay.... anyways this is another point I'd like to be added in the game.

I'm totally supporting a more deep colonization

Is very underwhelming that colonization is just clicking and "tada", i would like to see a competition system or something more complex

How about make colonization cost diplomatic point, few hundred population and few thousand money. The cost (money and diplomatic point) increases depends on distance. And it take few turn until population in colonized province reach 5000.

Would be great, it can be even greater if colonies, at a certain point, claim independence to form another country

and also diplomatic points are earned per turn, which would make colonizing very easy and profitable, population is very easy to gather and a few thousand further empathizes my point, the colonization points I mentioned could have other uses such as maybe earning tech points or declaring colonial wars or other things like that.
