Your playing very similar to the way I would , though Spanish/Portugese maps would come in handy, just another thing... I see your trading income hasnt improved at all and I cant help but wonder what the point is of getting trade 3/4 before infra 5 (mayors).
Otherwise things are looking very good indeed
Im guessing you got the naval and weapons manus by unexpected invention or events.
I also cant help but think the province of Ingermanland would be a nice little addition to the empire, maybe wrong culture/wrong religion, but you can fix the religion and it would look very pretty in joining the eastern borders
Anyway keep it coming!
