Was in Wieliczka year ago btw – quite an amazing place really. ;)
Before it the main commodities of the province traditionally were grains and metal from Częstochowa iron fields (Zagłębie Częstochowskie). So, if you just do not want to add more useless grain provinces better add metal.

But looking at the shape of Krakow, it looks like most of mining area might be inside Krakow, I have to think about Sieradz :)

updated post

I have moved one tax from Volynia and one from Velikie Luki - how this name should be written?

Also changed goods in Minsk to Grain and in Troki to clothes.

Not really – only a bit of it – (1/4 part I believe). But it is hard to say anything for sure looking on AGCEEP map shapes. :)

I prefer “Velikiye Louki” (or “Velikiye Luki”) in English translitered from Russian (or even translated “Great Louki”).

I do not understand LOU in Louki. To read first letter properly in English you would need to write "wh" (like in why what)

"wh" sounds like Polish "ł", not Russian "l"

Великие Луки; I still think it is pronounced exactly like in Polish "łuki"

MKJ said it supposed to sound like East European “u” in this case. ;)

:eek: I am neither English native speaker nor Russian so I can not decisively say anything about it ...

According to my dictionaries kind of short "u" which could be applied here is e.g. in put.

Edit:
@Herr Doctor: they have too many possible pronounciations of "u" :)

In case of "luki" it sounds in Enlgish as [lu:ki] (which is more like “ju” in Polish and Russian). In case of of "louki" it is [lauki]... :/
