I know some of you will disagree with me, but I'll say this anyway.

Some people were discussing about what kind of messages they would like to be shown in the game, but what I would really like to see are the reasons why something is happening. For example, the population of my country is decreasing. Are they dying? Are they migrating? To where? And why? I would like to see these things shown in the game.

Or if I lost a battle and if there were one or two decisive reasons why that happened, I would like to know what those reasons were. These could be shown as icons in the message (e.g. a rifle, if their firepower was superior to mine).

I don't mind if these things are told in tooltips, message windows or in another screen. I just would like to know what's happening in my country.

Good idea. It would bring some realism to the game. :D
