Tlaxcala, 840 AD: Ten turns of peaceful building. We know have 26 knights, 3 horsemen, 8 swords (3 in an army) and 6 catapults. For defense we have 3 muskets, 75 pikes and 4 spearmen. The horsemen are in Kyoto and can be upgraded for a total of 240g. We have 11 knights and a swordsman stationed on the eastern border. Two knights and a catapult are on the Indian border. Two swordsmen and two knights are in the northwest. Eight knights, a swordsman and our army of swordsmen are in the west. We have to get some of our new muskets or some of our pikes into the west and northwest in order to free our knights and swords for duty elsewhere. We now have 143 units, of which 16 are domestic workers. We are allowed 122 units so our unit expense is 21gpt. We currently have 16 units in production (one is a worker). Plan A (revised), which was approved by the citizens calls for 13 cities to produce military units so we have some cities producing units that could be working on improvements instead. These are Tarkingrad, Kagoshima, Gunningheim and Androbius. Kells, a Plan A city is building a barracks.
We currently have 1314g in the treasury and a surplus of 101gpt. We have an incense and two extra gems to trade.
America is annoyed, has 50g, printing press, chemistry and economics. They need gems. We have a renewable peace treaty.
England is cautious, has 20g and printing press. We currently have an active peace treaty and an alliance against Persia that costs us 1gpt. Both can be cancelled. England does not have astronomy, banking or gunpowder and need incense and gems.
France is annoyed and has 164g. They have the printing press, chemistry and economics. Joan needs gems. We have a peace treaty with 10 turns remaining on it.
Russia is annoyed and is broke but has printing press and economics. They need incense and gems. We have a peace treaty tat can (and should) be cancelled at any time.
Babylon is polite, has 307g, printing press, chemistry and economics. They need gems. We have a peace treaty that can be renewed. We also have an RoP and alliance against Persia that have 10 turns left. We are selling them incense for 22gpt and there are 3 turns left on that deal.
India is annoyed, has 7g, dyes, printing press, chemistry and economics. We have an old peace treaty that can be renewed.
China is polite, has 72g, silks, printing press, economics and chemistry. They need gems. We have a peace treaty with 10 turns left, an RoP with 7 turns left, an alliance against Persia (giving us 3gpt) with 3 turns left and we are selling then furs for 2gpt. The fur deal has already run at least 20 turns.
The Iroquois are annoyed and broke. They have printing press and economics. We have 10 turns left on a peace treaty that gives us 18gpt. We also have an RoP that has run for at least 20 turns.
Zululand is polite, has 62g, printing press and 2 workers. They need gems. We have a peace treaty with 10 turns remaining, that pays us 4gpt. We have an alliace with Persia that can be renewed. We still owe them furs for 3 turns because of an old tech deal.
Greece is annoyed, has 158g, printing press, chemistry and economics. We have 10 turns remaining on a peace treaty that gives us 3gpt. We are exporting incense to them for 14gpt with 5 turns to go on the deal.
Rome is annoyed, has 53g, printing press and economics. They also have 2 dyes and need incense and gems though we cannot trade with them. We have 10 turns remaining on a peace treaty that pays us 6gpt.
Persia is furious because we are at war.

We have learned that some countries have entered an industrial age and our people are trying to figure out the best way for us to catch up scientifically...
The Zulus (who are close to extinction) also like us and need many ofour goods, but they are also broke. They Greeks do have gold and are willing to pay 22gpt for our dyes. The polite Chinese would also like our dyes buy they have nothing to give in return. (This is surprising since we are paying them 45gpt for something!) The Americans are also polite but there is little opportunity for trade between our two peoples.
