April 1, 1420 - We have our first Colonist. I hire a Minister of Colonization. There are essentially two area nearby that are easy to colonize, according to my minister.
Jakarta, on the isle of Java, hs Sugar as an export. It will cost us 51 of our 72 ducats to send a colonist there. There natives number around 1000 and have a very low hostility.
Flores, an isle to the east, will cost 47 ducats to send our colonists there. There are alo about 1000 native, with alow aggressiveness. Flores exports Spices.
Ultimately, one factor weighs in my decision. My Minister estimates teh sucess rate of coloniztion at Jakarta to be 77%, Flores at 56%. That's a big differnce to me, so I send our Colonists to Jakarta at a cost of 51 ducats. It will take five months to find out whether they are successful.
May 21, 1420 - China moved their capital to Beijing.
