Struggled to keep my economy afloat since the unpause, took me all this time to save 50 ducats for my first bulding. Actually, I spent most of my time with below 0.4 of income and then I passed a trade expedition trough parliament and it SAVED my one province ass with extra 7 trade capacity, now I finally have some reliable (albeit still a small amount of) money to build up. Pop wise I did well, from from 8k at the end of the Black Death to 30k+ now. I'm planning to conquer my first province from Cuomo just south of me.
