Trade is all very well as a source of income - LATE in the game. Until Trade Level 5, the cost of creating the trade will far exceed any income you're likely to get out of it. To really top it off, your home trade province is the very competitive Flanders COT, and you're far away from all the really good ones.

Come now! Surely the world-famous Icelandic traders can corner a pittiful underdeveloped CoT like Flanders with the aid of first-class trade offerings like fish and whale fat. It's not like the competition there is much to write home about...

Aha! But I think Iceland has a right for some brave leaders, genetically they are there. Pity all the icelanders I know lived long before 1492...

I doubt you knew them ;)
