https://i.imgur.com/OswcDPy.png https://imgur.com/a/0BC7r I'm now to this game. My ruler is 4..5..5 I took burgundy lands due to an event. Now I don't know what to do with them. I can't state them all couse it's capped at 15 states. I vassalized Dutch. Should I vassalized Burgundy as well? In 10 years I will be able to intagrate Naples and Aragon. I allied to Aragon from stat of the game. Portugal started colonization in caribbean next to my colonies. Is there a way to take those colonies without war? I checked half of S America and no sign of gold cites. What is the chance to find them. I'm not in mood to f**k France (they are allied with Ottoman) so what I should do ?
What now?

You should integrate Aragon by decision to form Spain with Admin 10.
With caraiben you need to get 5 province before Portugal to claim region, after that it is portugal problem what it does. Priority aare provinces with centers of trade. Note that Portugal is not that bad, since it will steer trade to Lisbona anyway.
Gold is in Mexico and Peru colonial region (also Alasca), you may be lucky with colonisie but safest bet is to conquere Aztecs and Incas.
You can also expand into AAdrica, there is more gold in Mali, Kiwa and Ethipia region.
You can expandii into Italy region (shadow kingdom) Move trade center to Genua (end node).
You can start colonial war with England and conquere there.
You can start proxy war with France ally, and force France to break aliance with Ottomans. Then break truce with France and attack them over and over again.

What about burgudy? I can't make good profit from those terrytory couse of autonomy and culture. Wars arent't best now couse when I annexed Dutch, coalition formed.
How I can generate more income before i annex Aragon? My tech is lvl 9,8,9 and the colonializm spawned in Sevilla.

AE fades over distsnce. So you need act outside Europe.
If you start colony in Mexico, Peru or Africa you can start wars with coutries there.
Conquering Mexico and Peru and building CN on Aztec/Incas corpses is Spanish way of life. The AE which will reach Europe will be minimal.
AI generally drops coalition when it has opinion on you 50+

I have PU with Portugal. Still don't know what to do with Burgundy vassal or stay as terrytory or state? I can star creating West African Charter couse I have colony in Gold Coast is it worth it? I need 6 states for Aragon and Naples or it's better to leave states in Burgundy and Morrokoz/
You can get more state slots with Admin technology, and with idea group Administrative (this one is also cool for colonization).
Aragon land deserve statehood that for sure. Sicilli... far less.
What next: territories with alot development 30+. and one with accepted culture. You can add some culture outside iberian group.
From Burgundian land Branat and Holland could create some income if you put trader in english channel. Rest could be postponed.
West Africa is good to start. you can take land from Mali, Kongo and whoever lives in guinea. if you control 51% in chanter region it grants bonus trader, getting local centers of trade generally does the job.
Creating vassals from Burgundian land would generally couse trouble, it will eat your relation slot, and they may get rebelious (you seem to have many PU).
There is however trick of releasing Gascony and going on reconquest war with France. That couse less AE. You may wait for Spain decision, and Neapolli annex with that (to control liberty desire)

https://imgur.com/a/cDtzY You can see with lands are stated. I gave both Branat and Holland to Dutch. I won't create any vassal there and just leave those lands as territory and state.
When I PU Portugal I did get an PU with their Colonial Nation. So good move to leave PU and attack them. They controle hole chain of islands and part of Hispaniola. If I conquer them who will gain territory me or CN? Portugam is creating few colonies there. Who will gain those when they change to cites CN me or stay with Portugal.
There really an decision to annex Neapolli? I stated their integrate them and need to load last save couse I couldn't stop it for some reason. It would eat 6 dip power for 10 years.
I have only +9 ducats per month how I can incrase it? I've got army maintenance on +/- 25% and fleet 100% and I'm using 4 colonist (8 ducats). I was thinking about Trade, Religus and Economy ideas? I did Exploration and Expantion.
I've also a small problem with sailors. They aren't respawning couse I'm using 74 and recowery is 64.

9 ducats per month this early is quite good. imo you should get some military ideas.
Yes i think that your start is generally good, so you may chill and kill someone outside europe, and integrate some of your subjects.
Money will be better once you start intergating. Also as time pass your colonies will be more profitable. You may spend some MP to improve tarriffs on your best colony. But income is good so even that is not neccessery. You can build some trade ships and send them to privateer Constantinopole. That should be profit. As time pass, autonomy will drop, that is more money.
As for idea: I would go with Administrative, since state count is good for once you integrate. Mercenaries discount will help with France/Ottomans. And admin points discount is always good.
Offensive/Quality is also good if you want to focus on smashing France/Ottos. But if AE is tight that may not be the option for 10 (but 14....)
There is only decision to integrate Aragon. Neapolli need to be manually.
There is diplomacy panel (tab in build units menu) to send diplomats on auto improve relations, that could help.

1. Yea I can't really build any ships without crew for it
2. Don't understand what you mean. "But if AE is tight that may not be the option for 10 (but 14....)"
3. Then I read your post wrong
Still losing 6 dip power and earning 0 per month isn't that good
