List of common on actions ( remember to put effect = {} after the name of the on action ):
Note: this is NOT a complete list but should be enough to get your started.
Note 2: In most cases when there is a need for targets for the on action... ROOT is the initiating country and FROM is the target country.

For example, with on_release_as_puppet ROOT is the master that is releasing the country and FROM is the country being released.
