I usally only 60%. like many other, depands one what the world is like. Like right now, in the one i am playing right now, the spainish and me ( the danes ) are in great power, I'm pumping out, silver armored everything.. guns.. and cannons..... and im still not the strongist ones in europe. I do figure the spainish are. The pope is another problem. having all of italy and what was germany. the germans have moved into what was france. and the french are in ireland. the turkish as far as i can tell arnt a great threat. so in the year of 1298. I still got a handfull :)
