Well I'm playing as the Danes and do'nt own that much land and all but have a strong trading empire. My income 40,000 a year but dwindling(damm greedy governors) and the English have an approximate income of 25,000 a year and growing. Well I noticed that the Spanish have Poka dotted a bunch of red landscape from France to North Africa all the Way to Antioch. Well It got late last night and had to save but I almost have the Spanish line fried wich will fire up the English to get those polka dots out of there empire and with there dominance on the sea they should do it quick as I see the English move 5000 troops to 1 province in 1 turn, so the power to do it is there.

The only downside is once I let them become a beast and I start winning it probably wo'nt last long as they will have civil war after civil war weakening them quicker than I can taking out all the fun. Anyway to decrease the chances of them having a civil war
