How can i make edited nation playable?

I've completely edited Crimea and created a new powerhouse league and wanted to watch the country grow whilst managing the National Team. A problem i'm having is making the national team playable. Any ideas?

Add playable players, needs to be over 200.

If the DB does not have them then duplicate and (or not if you are lazy) some of the low CA/PA players, refs etc.

For nations with English names I usually just import a few really low CA/PA english players and wipe their birth city, takes seconds and has instant effect.

From experience Crimea is hard-coded to not be playable as a national team. Clicking 'Crimea' in game should have no effect, i.e. the nation page doesn't load up, from memory. This was certainly the case on FM15.

Transfer it all over to CIS or pre-1922 ireland might help.

Those two are still the best to overwrite.

Just need to set the continent, which requires a value change in a text file to allow that to be edited.
