What would you suggest I do to improve hostile relations with a dozen factions when usually the first step is trading with them and they won't, not even when I throw all the money I currently have at them.

Share your wisdom here, I'm all ears.
They have an aversion to trading with you if you don't have fancy stuff. Go get fancy stuff (resources) from half the world away. Yes, I know it doesn't make sense. Until then, park 3 armies next to the border and start with a NAP. They'll even pay you for that and like you.
