Per Kull's request, I am starting this thread to post my edits to the export_buildings.txt file. In all cases I have tried to maintain the author's original intent while providing clarity to the text. The first set is listed below.
Romani Government Types
{type1lvl2_seleucid} Administratio Regionvm Italicarvm
{type1lvl2_seleucid_desc}
Italian Regional Government\n(requires Homeland Government Resource)\n\nOur governance of Roman Italia shows that it takes time to fully acclimate the peoples of these lands to Roman rule, but patient efforts are often well rewarded. After a period of indirect governance by a Roman magistrate (such as a praefectus or quaestor) we can integrate local economic and military functions with our own. This grants the region a more equal partnership in the federation of Italian states. Full suffrage may not be extended for some time and the quotas of soldiers levied could become exhaustive. However, the slow process of Romanization can only serve to benefit us, and therefore the region itself.

The Italian Regional Government is slow to establish in a Roman Homeland province but boasts all building and troop types.
{type2lvl2_seleucid} Provincia Romana
{type2lvl2_seleucid_desc}
Romanized Province\n(requires Expansion Government Resource)\n\nShould the existing infrastructure be insufficient to handle Roma’s future expectations for the region, or when an entirely new governmental system is necessary to maintain stability, we can initiate a full Provincia Romana in the region. Provincial governors and numerous small coloniae are sent from Italia to defend the province from foreign enemies and internal disturbances. Over time they can establish a Roman provincial government and any other necessities of a fully functioning Provincia.\n\nSlower population growth and some unhappiness from forced acculturation can be foreseen. More efficient methods of taxation could stimulate economic growth, but expect no windfalls for quite some time. Fortunately, the soldiers trained here are more dependable than those from newly conquered areas.
{type2lvl2_seleucid_desc_short}
The Romanized Province allows for most building and troop types in a Roman Expansion province.
{type3_seleucid} Provincia Romaniensis
{type3_seleucid_desc}
Lightly Romanized Province\n\nThis province is under Roman control but still retains a large degree of political and cultural autonomy. Most communities in any Roman province possess no real legal guarantee of their status. However, our general practice with more productive and efficient provinces is to entrust a generous measure of local self-government. This especially applies to municipal governments with sufficiently extensive administrative experience.\n\nSubjects in the province are happier when we allow them to maintain most of their local customs and traditions. The benefits of a light Roman hand in local economic policies can be quite productive when coupled with fully Romanized provinces. Unfortunately we may not always rely upon the quality of soldiers from these provinces, for men from provinces with their own concerns have less concern for Roma.
{type3_seleucid_desc_short}
The Lightly Romanized Province retains most troop types but offers little building selection.
{type4_seleucid} Amicvs Popvli Romani
{type4_seleucid_desc}
Roman Allied State\n\nEstablishing an Amicus Populi Romani allows for the rapid incorporation of a prosperous region with varying degrees of Roman control. It is a wise decision to enlist them in the provinces of the Tabula Amicorum at Roma with a large population and an advanced level of civic development. Allied states rarely experience the full benefits of Roman technology, culture, or military training. Fortunately the short transition from Roman conquest to Roman allied state improves the chances of immediate financial prosperity. Troops levied from the region are of unproven loyalty to Roma and may only serve in the most basic legionary functions.\n\nSTRATEGY: It is better to establish Roman Allied States in regions with large populations and advanced buildings rather than small towns with limited development.
{type4_seleucid_desc_short}
Roman Allied States quickly provide economic benefits but offer minimal troop and building selection.
