Howdy all,

I know this has been discussed in greater detail in many other threads, but I still can't seem to figure out the answer to the most basic question:

When I acquire a new province (am playing as Romani and have taken southern Italy, Sicily, Corsica, Sardinia, and now have a foothold in northern Africa), I always immediately begin constructing the most elaborate government available to me...so it's Type I in places like Bononia and Type II in Kart-Hadast. I originally thought this was he obvious way to build one's empire, but I am beginning to realize with greater clarity that this is not the best way to expand...seems like many of you install lower-level governments in order to achieve different ends.

Can you point me to the best summary description of the *strategy* of government construction? For example, when (or perhaps where) do I install a Type II, and when do I install a Type IV when I have an option? I'd really like to figure this out once and for all in my head...any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
