AI Changes:

> Removal of missions script so the territory stay as protectorates instead of auto-joining with no effort for factions.

> Pre-game relationships balanced out. Alliances aren't already in place, which can make it so Britain and France could ally in a game against UP and Spain (for pure example). Protectorates can remain.

> Protectorates foreign policy matches your own and classed as extensions of your Empire as in puppet governments of sorts. This prevents the need for protectorates to fill your "ask allies for help" screen. When protectorates rebel against you, it creates peace with the enemies. When you take a protectorate, they automatically make peace with their enemies then as well. Protectorates can't go to war by themselves against other nations, they can only break off the protectorate.

> Protectorates can be absorbed into your empire via diplomacy. As in paying them for them to surrender their sovereignty to you. This does away with the need of having to invade your protectorates and the 'missions'.

> Ellict government changes for your own Empire. This causes "National Identity" issue for all your regions, which gradually fade away to balance this.

> Gentlemen having the ability to infiltrate towns and add to "Clamour for Reform" which can influence uprisings and government change types. (Assisting a reform of monarchy to republic and vice-versus) which can change relationships with nations.

> Territory Expansion only generated by your current Empire size. This allows relationships to amend in a more historical manner as nations can feel "They aren't that big any more, not as much as a threat now" for example.

> Realistic trade variables. AI to treat other AI and the player the same, especially when it comes to technology, so the player doesn't need 4 Universities to keep on par with the AI due to massive inter-trading occuring.
