The Map is indeed the main window.

Diplomacy can be used short term and long term. Money is the king in diplomacy, the more you pay the more friends you get (just like in real life).

Trading is conducted through the COT:s. The idea is to maintain or break monopolies where the big cash is. Spreading trade centers here and there will help too.

Some small notes on these issues.

Also the map is oh so cool. You can zoom in to fight your wars in Europe on a small scale or zoom it out to a global view or anything in between. When I first got the game I was amazed at the map.
