Shouldn't we be able to build buildings in our colonial nations?

[jockedahl]

I dislike the disparity between trade companies and colonial nations.

In trade company provinces you can increase trade value and naval force limit by a lot by building manufactories and naval buildings for example. I'd like to be able to build manufactories and defensive structures in the Carribean too.

Feed your colonial nations enough ducats, and give them a governor of the appropriate type, and they will (or at least, I'm pretty sure they're supposed to) erect buildings.

They do erect buildings, but they have to do other things with the money too, like build armies of troops to stand around.
