Institution in Europa Universalis 5 is a stat that represents a concept or idea a nation must embrace before researching different Tech Tree options. There are dozens of Institutions in the game, each starting from a single point and spreading to other locations based on various factors.

What Is Institution Spread in Europa Universalis 5
As mentioned earlier, Institutions are critical concepts that a nation must first embrace to learn new items in the Tech Tree. Each technology tier branches from a single point, which is the Institution you need to adopt initially. Note that spreading and embracing an Institution are entirely different processes. For an Institution to spread, it must first appear on the map at a specific location.
If you’re playing in Historical mode, Institution spread begin with the invention of significant historical advancements, which generally follow the real-world timeline. When an Institution appears on the map in a city, it gradually spreads into nearby areas near the borders of the initial location.
Initially, the spread of an Institution may seem slow when it appears in a new location. However, once it is present in enough areas within a nation, so that at least 20% of the population is affected by it, the nation can then spend resources to embrace the Institution. After embracing, you can begin unlocking advancements within the Institution’s Tech Tree.
