It's a good point, is there anyone who doesn't play in political view?
I'm sure they'll have political views in the same style as how they did Duchy or Kingdom views in CK2
The monarch information is interesting; looking forward to how they rate historical rulers (so I can lambaste them for it )
But seriously, I hope they include at least simplified family trees, rather than just who my heir is (and not even really how he or she is related to me, specifically), and some abstract information about which thrones I might inherit.
That's not going to happen. The Devs already said we weren't getting anything like CK-style dynasty management.

well from the article it looks like this game could give civ and total war a run for their $$$.
I doubt it. EU has been a better game than Civ for a long time. Maybe Steam will help in that regard, but EU has a far steeper learning curve than Civ does. And the TW crowd is really looking for something completely different anyway.
Part of that, surely, is the fact that Civilization difficulty is more or less based on one's willingness to do micro, whereas EU difficulty is more conceptual and lies chiefly in learning how to take advantage of the awful AI.I've never understood how people find EU3 a difficult game. cIV is by far the harder one to learn. After having the game for 5 years I've only ever advanced two difficulty levels in cIV, while the procedure for any/all nation in EU3 was easy enough to learn in about a month. So what part of EU3 do you thing is more complicated than Civilzation? And I'll admit that obviously EU3 > CiV (but what isn't?), though I don't think EU3 will ever be > cIV.
