New Features - i.e. fitting the mod in the 16th century news

New planned features:

Trade in new times

This period saw the Portuguese, and later other European states, try to take over important trading enclaves around Africa and the Indian Ocean. First of all I will slightly change the routes and add spices and textiles. Then I will move onto the more complicated task of implementing some kind of a monopoly system and the ability to block trade in certain directions - an important tactic in those days. How I will get Portuguese ships from one side of Africa to the other is yet to be discovered.

Protestants and emerging burghers

This is the time of the protestant reformation in Germany and the founding of the Anglican church in England. These and other Christian variants would spread within and later outside Europe. But it was also the time of a nascent conflict between the nobility and the burghers. This contributed to the reformations and to rebel movements, such as the Comuneros in Spain.

Offmap colonisation

There has been the suggestion to create offmap powers for the colonies. However, what I will do for the time being are events that bring money, possibly some kind of inflationary effect, and various weird things that happened as parts of the world were being connected for the first time.
