I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

I didn't know spellus could get this excited about anything not in the orthodox tech group?
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

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.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Released Biyzantium in a war against Ottomans.What technology level he has? 5/5/5 in 1760 ...

It often seems better to take the hit for taking the province and then releasing yourself. That way, they end up your coreligionist.

I know this applies for pagans and hindus (haven't tried it with musselmen). It does not apply to catholics and protestants though.

The Turks converted the Balkans to muslim so when i released them they became sunnies with 5/5/5 tech level (Modavia,Bulgaria,Byzantium).

Proclaim guarantie seems bugged.I put it on Byztaium and just realized Ottmans captures Contantinapole.How?

Ok.  I sort of understand how trade works now, but I can't seem to operationalize it.  That is, in the early game, what the fuck should I be doing as England with my ships and merchants?  Better to leave the merchants in London and Bordeaux and put all my light ships in Bordeaux, or to split them between Bordeaux and London, or to try moving a merchant to Sevilla to forward to Bordeaux?  Everything I try with it seems to just drop my trade income...

Assume, for this discussion, that I won the 100 years' war but have crippled my manpower in the process and have fuck-all for monarch points.
