	Austria:		Austria: Austria finds itself in an interesting position at the start of the game, being the largest and most coherent of any of the states in the HRE. The challenge with Austria is to balance your own expansionist drive, which will mainly be directed against the Italians and later the Ottomans with the squabbling of the HRE member states in order to remain Emperor. There is no easy answer to this and to add to your problems, it is often very hard to predict in which direction the HRE will eventually go. The main benefits Austria has going for it are a shitton of candidates for Personal Unions down the road, with the obvious candidates of Bohemia and Hungary but also Spain and its strong military and economic base.

			Bohemia: The Anti-Austria. In a way, Bohemia plays like an inverse of Austria, with much of your strategy depending on outmanuvering the Austrians in order to become Emperor yourself (unlike the Austrians however, you are an Elector Count, so that's one vote always cast in your name).

	Trade goods are a representation of the primary export of any one province. How much of the trade good is produced is determined by production, increased by developing a province with Diplomatic points. The trade value of these goods is vital to securing a strong economy, so there are better and worse goods whose values change at historical dates when certain triggers are met, although some goods remain good exports throughout the entirety of a campaign. Generally speaking, exotic trade goods like spices and silk are highly valueable and remain so until the end of the game and agricultural products like Grain, Livestock and Fish are pretty terrible. There are two trade goods that have their own unique mechanics: Gold and coal. Gold by itself doesn't generate any trade value and will not be traded on the world market like the other goods, a gold producing province will instead directly generate money in your treasury. This comes at a price though: Overreliance on gold for income causes inflation to rise, which makes everything in your nation more expensive and developing your Gold producing provinces risks the gold mines running dry, which HALVES the income of the province affected by this, cumulatively. The second is coal. Coal will start spawning in the late game (1700s onwards) once you crossed techological thresholds and then become the single most valueable trade good in the game. Coal is also special in that it is the only trade good tied to a building, the Blast Furnace which will crank up the production rates of all goods in your nation by 5% per Furnace built.

Basic concepts

Line 30:		Line 30:

	===Money===		===Money===
	Where monarch points are abstract to the max, money is very simple. You get money through taxes, trade, looting and industry, you lose money by spending it on buildings or soldiers, to maintain the upkeep of your state or being forced to pay reparations. Money only represents the general state of your treasury, not the actual treasury in itself and as such, is very superflous. Taking on loans is a common way to fight wars (and in turn, use the money you pressed out of your opponent to pay back said loans) and only becomes a problem when you have too much of it, although its of course always better to avoid loans. There is also the possibility of devaluing your currency, which gives you a lot of money instantly, but increases your nations corruption, which is to be avoided at all costs (Corruption inceases MP costs across the board and is ridiculously costly to get rid of). Finally, if your nation is so broke either option is not available, you can declare your bankruptcy, which clears all your loans but gives nations you have lent money from a casus belli, fucks your nation sideways in every respect and should therefore be even harder avoided than corruption.

			===Provinces===
			What your nation is made of. Provinces are your territory and as such provide the basis for your nation. The most important factors of a province are the level of its development, buildings and if its a core province or not. When you annex new provinces from an opposing nation, usually through a war, they start out as territories, meaning that they are merely de jure part of your Nation and your administration doesn't actually cover it yet. You spend administration points to core provinces you aquired in a war; if you gain provinces through colonization, annexing vassals, junior partners or inheriting them, this isn't necessesary. Every province has a trade good assigned to it, representing its primary export, and trade goods have a value assigned to them that changes over the course of a game.
