Second value doesn't matter, as per EDU:
- "; Ridden horses and camels do not have separate hit points"

What you can do to solve that is.

Select just a few on choosing screen and them once the campaign starts. You open the console and put the comand "control name_of_faction_here"
that way all the factions you want to control that you haven't selected on the first screen, you can select now.

I have done that to control all factions. Including Aztecs, Papal States and Rebels.

Any tips or anything like that for the economy? I found the economy to be too hard and found myself often super broke barely getting by in terms of money. I really love this mod but I really cannot wrap my head around on how to do well in the economy

Depends of the faction, but imo the only hard one is Teutonic Order. You may try to improve your relations with the Pope and call crusade on Vilnius then snatch it.

Other than this, watch the unit upkeep as this has been raised.
And send merchants (their income is buffed) to far away resources for max moneyz.

Ohhh I see, I had no idea about the upkeep for some reason. Thanks a lot this info is really useful to know. Is there a huge threat to your faction being attacked in the beginning since you start off with low troops?

Edit: I tried out merchants and replaced some of my garrison units and my income is now a lot better. Leveling merchants is super good and things get pretty valuable even in Europe! Thanks a lot
