Technology groups
From EU3 Wiki
Technology groups ("tech groups") are groupings of countries according to the research speed of a country. Default tech groups are:
- Latin: 100% research speed
- Eastern: 90% research speed
- Muslim: 80% research speed
- Indian: 50% research speed
- Chinese: 40% research speed
- African: 20% research speed
- New World: 10% research speed
This grouping is also done in such a way that if one country gets far ahead of the others in the same group, the stragglers will receive compensation, known as the neighbour bonus, which adds to their tech. This makes it harder to pull much ahead tech-wise, and it makes one huge powerhouse pull the others along.

Modding technology groups
The effects as descibed above are contained in the technology.txt file in the common folder. What group each country belongs to at the beginning of each game is defined in the country files in the history folder.
Tech group of a country can be changed via events. Use the "technology_group" command to change a country's tech group:
technology_group = latin
This example command changes the country's tech group to latin.
