Quick Overview

The assimilate command in Europa Universalis IV is used to change multiple aspects of a specific province.

When you input the command followed by the province ID, it will change the ownership of that province to your nation, make the province a core part of your nation, and set the religion and culture of that province to your nation's primary religion and culture.

How to Open the Command Console

In EU4, cheats are executed from the command console, a text box that you type commands into.

To open the command console press the ~(tilde) key, which is typically located under ESC (escape).

If your keyboard does not have that key, or pressing ~ does not work, try the following keys:

  • ~
  • SHIFT + 2
  • SHIFT + 3
  • ALT + 2 + 1

Type your command into the console, and then press ENTER .
