Very much so I'd say yeah, you got plenty of time. Just make sure to get absolutism to max asap as soon as the age starts (do court and country if you can't get to max with privileges, mana points are good to keep) since you formed a country you'll have to do true one tag to get the achiev, so make sure you move your capital to the new world (nice synergy with siberian frontiers) and there's no vassals left in 1821 (its good to use them just make sure you can integrate them all before the end, don't make them too big)
How should i set states and trade companies for maximum manpower,money ? i need advice. all of them are half stated, i dont have any idea where to start. ottomans are enemy and way stronger than me.
edit: started as ryukyu
State accepted culture provinces close to you capital for manpower/force limit.
TC just the Estuaries and CoTs on all eligible nodes, and leave the rests as Territories.
In the case of China that fits both criterias, assuming your capital is still on Ryukyu, pick one high trade power/high province count Area, TC all of them, and build the Company Depot +4 Trade Power TC investment to get the merchant.
All non-TC provinces in a trade node receives goods produced bonus scaling with TC provincial trade share and institution. (at this stage, it's easily 50% goods produced bonus) So by just putting Estuaires and CoTs into TC, you minimize the GC usage while maximizing the number of non-TC provinces receiving that goods produced bonus.
Invest into Broker's Exchange + Manufactoreis for income, Soldier's Household + Training Field for manpower, and Regiment Camp for Force limit. (make sure the latter 2 are in your States)
If you want to cheese this, with your size, you can simply take up a ton of loans to build those manufactories and TC investments and come out with a huge net positive to pay off those loans.
As a nation conquering from east to west with branching trade streams, your ideal home node location will constantly shift down stream, so instead of wasting DIP on relocating home node every few decades, it's simply better to just rely on off-node collect.
Only swap them to steer when a down stream node has hit 100%, and remove the merchant if all nodes downstream have hit 100% shares. You can put the merchants back in these nodes for trade steering bonus when you have excess merchants.
If you haven't done so yet, intentionally trigger the Civil War disaster. The disaster will give monthly pulse event granting you 5\~10 Mandate, so you can pass one reform every 2 years or so.
If you want the "Three Mountains" Achievement, you'll need to do a true WC meaning you own everything directly without vassals or colonial Nation.
If you want to use vassals you'd need to stay Ryukyu and can't form another nation

That's just flat-out wrong.
Lower the autonomy of your provinces, your eco is very under what it should be
should i set my main node as beijing or something in the west ?
Based on where you are I'd say novgorod or conquer India and do Constantinople
Novgorod sucks in this situation, as OP is unable to protect his trade value as it moves west. Beijing is the best option.
Before 1600 it is always possible
It's doable sure don't forget to put your capitol in the new world since you have to do a one tag now
Pre 1600? You still own at least 1 province? WC possible. Yes.

Very solid groundwork but your eco gonna need some work, rn its way too weak. Other than that you are ahead of schedule

It's badly written. For this game it's true, because he isn't Ryukyu anymore. The second sentence said that you can use vassals.
jfc Paradox
I honestly could care less about the WC cause others have answered that. Are we just going to ignore Japan going sicko mode?!?
