Hotfix: Fixes a crash issue when the ottomans organize Libya in 1900's. Hotfix 2: Lets players use the release & puppet cb again. This update let's you stop non-accepted pops from becoming craftsmen or clerks via decision, rebalances the Prime Ministers, makes the potato blight a bit stronger, makes the war-torn modifier kill less pops at the cost of higher emigration push (instead of just dying they now spread around), adds some new inventions, and tries to make the two rightmost naval techs less useless. There have also been many small fixes to when ai used certain cb's and on their tech choices when they are low on money.
