Part 8 - Here come's latin tech.
We now have proper neighbour, all sliders ready, and ruler with over 6 adm, time to get stability to 3 and start westernisation.
And since game doesn't want us to get bored, it encourages us to DoW Elephant Country
Colony at Taodeni turns to city and we get +1 base tax there.
Also this year's harvests have been exceptional and we get 128 ducats.
Almost fully developed province (just no temple) and 50 ducats goes to us
As you can see we are 3 stability, so, after 116 years :
25% of westernisation done
Since now our tech will start to slowly implode, we can send merchants to CoT
We get mission to recover negative stability, reward is 5 prestige, why not?
We hire 5 star artist to help us recover it.
We will just stick to resisting western influence's until military modernization
Our tech's dont skyrocket that much because we have no muslim neighbour for neighbour bonus.
Sorry British, but you have no boats. No boats = no fun.
We get another colonial company foundd (this is first game I have so much of them) in Konian - non coastal province next to Futa Jallona.
Finnaly, France will get some problems
About France, as you can see Burgundy lost a war against it and is now no match for French people.
Stability rises to 0 and we get new mission - to get above 10 prestige - we will gain +1 stablity from that, great mission durning westernization.
Another decline in army quality, of course we choose to have more quality.
Ottomans keep spamming us with alliance proposals but we decline since they are weak.
We will use them against Castille in the future
Our colony at Gabon turns into a city.
My heir Muhammad falls ill but we call a medic and it's fine.
3 inflation wont kill me, I dont want to delay westernisation
Ottomans bankrupt because of rebels nad war with Castille, I knew alliance with them would be bad idea.
Let's DoW Elephant country for prestige to complete mission.
Luanda grows to a city and we now have only 1 colony.
Right after westernization we make peace with Kanem Bornu - we demand their vassalization and 130 ducats.
We complete the mission and are now at -1 stab, new mission - naval race versus ... Hungary.
//Game considers that our rivals are - Hungary, Poland, Novogord,Lithuania and Great Britain (that one's right) well funny.
We need to be -5 towards centralisation for military modernisation
Cores on Kongo lands appeared.
We also get claims on our rivals, but since we only border GB, we get core on isolated British province - Tuat.
We start slowly colonising land around us and connecting everything, we colonise Cameron and Abomey.
Religious situation in Europe
Here we go, 75% done
We discover South America, let's take a look.
Now we need to wait around 10 years to centralise once more, then we will modernise army and rush towards Europe.
Or Europe will rush towards us?
