But vain the spear and vain the bow,
They never can work War's overthrow;
The hermit's prayer and the widow's tear
Alone can free the world from fear (Blake)

It would be nice to have an ever increase in income from each source (not just from you being the only person [watch an enemy merchant plant himself on one of two of the same resource in a province], but because of monopolizing it). Maybe even some sort of "Merchant's Guild" reward would be interesting, such as a high quality merchant militia becomes available (think elite caravan guards). You could even add some ancillaries in there too like "Merchant Guard" that would give a +2 to assassination prevention on a random chance (maybe 15% or so a turn) for as long as you have complete dominance of the resource. It would also give the player/AI a reason to aggressively use merchants too.

Re: Merchant Fruit Monopoly
I don't think there's any direct bonuses from gaining a monopoly on a resource, other than the Monopolist traits that Merchants can acquire, increasing their Finance and therefore the income gathered. Its a nice feature if you can be bothered with the micromanagement.
That is a cool idea though.
At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.
Re: Merchant Fruit Monopoly
You don't need all the resources on the map, only in one province that has 2 or more. You don't even need both of them, as long as nobody is on the other one.
