Just waiting for Copper in Kastamonu and other source(s).

Candar/kastamonu has the Kure mountains, rich in copper

http://www.dagbasi.com/info/atlas/kara/kara.html

In Kastamonu's sub-province, Küre, the mountains are covered in a rich layer of forest. However, the sub-province is not only rich in forest but also in minerals. The copper pyrite beds of Küre have been worked since ancient times. The ore taken from earth dug out by giant machines is sent to the Black Sea port of Inebolu after local processing. A cable railway built to transport the mineral is not used because of the great expense. Instead the job is done by lorry.

Not wine for Limousin and Nivernais, for sure.

Not sure for naval in both provinces but France requires manpower. Same problem for Lyonnais but cloth could fit.
France can get more grain in Rouen, Picardie and the two interior Bretagnese provinces I think.
 
I think the Candar change can be okay for now...although honestly, I can't say that the second link actually mollifies by concerns about a lack of compelling information. However, I think that information is probably better than whatever p'dox consulted when it assigned province goods. :p

on my last link post 428

it states Karaman was, both rich in grain and cloth, any thoughts about changing the goods to these?
 
further reading on karaman indicates that konya was and still is a cloth, silk and carpet making area for over 1000 years.
on Tarsus, it was a rich grain and farming area until 1818

any thoughts on changes for these, so

Konya to cloth

taurus to grain

Province good for Everglades

I still think that the province good for Everglades should be nothing as I can find no evidence of any real effort by the Spanish to colonize it at all. They seem to have planted a mission near present-day Miami, but that was certainly not anything more than a TP at best, and even that's a bit of a stretch. All their colonization efforts seem to have been further north in Seminole, which covers St. Augustine and Tampa/St. Petersburg. Other efforts were in the Florida Panhandle, which translates into Tallahassee.
 
Yes, you're right but Spain will never colonize this province with such value... not even a TP. Better have an ahistorical development of a Spanish colony for AI here rather than any other country colonizing it... only because the province is free.

Tarsus? I suppose it is Taurus.

Please amend for reference.
 
Good point about their religion. But how will granting a core on most of the South-eastern US based on De Soto and De Leon's explorations from about 1550? That should motivate the Spanish AI to attack. Then they'd swap cores back and forth with the Brits after the 7YW, etc.

I guess I just volunteered to write the core granting events for the Spanish, didn't I?

Yes! :D

De-Villars could help you. AFAIK, this is what he had in mind after finishing Portuguese cores.

We will then be able to test a change for Trade Good in Florida.

Yes, to see whether they are more likely to colonize it. After all, we don't really want to encourage a setup where Spain won't colonize it but it will take it when another nation colonizes it (which is the setup I read from sturm's post).
