The Census

September 1, 1625 - I order a Census of the Matarami world. The results have arrived.

Malacca with 155356
Mysore with 135484
Hyderabad with 109394
Berhampur with 81009
Maharashtra with 68021
Johor with 64438
Sampalpur with 59987
Bastar with 58309
Khandesh with 56387
Malwa with 50489


Of our colonies or former colonies, the top five provinces by population:

Selatan with 30590
Pondicherry with 23039
Salabanka with 22631
Palembang with 21907
Bandjarmasin with 20720

In terms of productions income, who is the tops, minimum 12 ducats:

Wewak with 41 ducats
Mysore with 15.02 ducats
Bastar with 13.75 ducats
Malacca with 13.15 ducats
Jakarta with 12.9 ducats
Makssar with 12.05 ducats
Brunei with 12.05 ducats
Maharashtra with 12.05 ducats


Provinces that add at least 1 manpoower to our country (that can support at least 1000 troops during peacetime):

Bali with 2
Bandjarmasin with 1.5
Salabanka with 1.5
Sabah with 1.5
Surabaja with 1.5
Bandung with 1.5
Palembang with 1
Pondicherry with 1
Selatan with 1
Maharashtra with 1


Has level 3 or level 2 fortresses:

Mysore, level 3
Hyderabad, level 3
Malwa, level 3
Gondwana, level 2
Kwai, level 2
Maharashtra, level 2

The top Centers of Trade, by volume traded:

Manhattan with 698.53 ducats
Ganges with 562.7 ducats
Malacca with 559.74 ducats
Isfahan with 501.24 ducats
Kutch with 497.06 ducats

Samar is number 10 with 375.72 ducats

In trade, we are still the world's leading producer of spices, which will probably never change. We are still the world's largest producer of coffee and cotton.

Production income from:

Spice: 389.7 ducats
Coffee: 55.2 ducats
Sugar: 53.8 ducats
Chinaware: 50.9 ducats
Gold: 41 ducats
Cotton: 39 ducats

Everything else is below 15 ducats.

Trade incomes from:

Spice: 294.8 ducats
Chinaware: 172.7 ducats
Coffee: 49.8 ducats
Sugar: 36.7 ducats
Tea: 28.3 ducats
Cotton: 24.5 ducats
Fish: 25.3 ducats
Grain: 19.5 ducats
Iron: 15.5 ducats

Number of full cities that produce:

Spice: 24
Fish: 8
Cotton: 6
Naval Supplies: 5
Grain: 5
Coffee: 4
Wool: 4
Sugar: 4
Chinaware: 3
Tea: 2
Copper: 1
Iron: 1
Ivory: 1
Gold: 1

As can be seen, not all exports are alike. Three Chinaware provinces rival 24 Spice provinces in trade revenues. And Spices are a decently traded item.

Naval Supplies have got to be a joke export. They produce so little in production and trade revenue that the people there might as well not work the trade at all. Then maybe there would actually be a demand for Naval Supplies, which largely means timber and tar.

The value of various exports goes up and down as demand and the market go up. For example, those provinces that export slaves have their value increased as more provinces with cotton and sugar are colonized.


The products that currently have good trade values:

Very High:

None known

High:

Tea
Chinaware
Spice
Iron
Copper
Salt
Coffee

I have not found any provinces in the world that exports furs, slaves, or wine. Therefore, I cannot judge the values of those products.
