I ahve this nasty suspicion I am going to be running into you bastards when I get much further east.

Like I said, the Eastern Question (though I suspect I might run into Ottomans first).
Of course, Britain is always open to negotiations with the eastern barb... our dear colleagues.

The Ottoman Empire has no claims on India, and in general theory has no objection to see it being distributed among the western powers, but the present British territories should really be the western edge of their territories in Asia, because the rest shall be divided between Russia and the Empire.

How do I go about getting an East Asian port? Some ND requires it, but I have no idea how that would ever work.

Should Russia be involved in all this colonial crap via sea? I have done nothing to explore at all. I don't think I could find North America if I had to...

Check the regional map view, you'll see.

One thing I learned during this session:

You cannot fight a war with an army you have not built yet.

North America is pretty much divided up already. You'll probably want to take over Siberia first before looking at other colonies.

Lucky for me, Al-konyuhu fuckers have taken over Siberia for me, so I don't have to worry about that anymore!

Is there any reason to consider moving my capital around?

Unless you want to make it safer (IE, Constantinople to Ankara), then no, not for you.  Colonial powers can benefit from a capital shift, especially in the case of Portugal, because their home provinces aren't really all that valuable and, after Brazil is substantially built up, the manpower and taxes from the colonies are worth getting by moving the capital there.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Move the Capital to Mazovia, release lots of russian minors, get polish culture, perform the culture shift decision, perform the create poland decision.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

Probably not worth it for you.  The New World sucks as far as manpower and taxes go, province by province.  Only the fact that Portugal is so small and shitty makes it worthwhile for them.

Habbaku

Not worth it at all for Spain, I'd say.  Their manpower and tax income primarily derives from their home provinces, after all.

Though I heartily encourage that Spain shift their capital to Mexico.  ;)
