But they didn't organize their first (notable) teams until the 1910s, didn't form a true league around them until the 1920s, and didn't send their first player to the majors until the 1950s. Wouldn't Cuba seem to be the country most closely on a level with the US during that 1870-1970 period?
Baseball Level does not have any meaning anymore. It is not used for anything other than determining the percentage that a country defaults to when you add it to a player origin list and possibly the chance that country is picked for a player from the "Other" percentage. The Baseball Levels in the file were set back when they determined the percentage of players from each country and were set to try to match the 1969-1992 time period. When I created the 1870 file, there was no reason to go through an edit them all, so I did not.

Feel free to edit them as you wish.
