Koch:
Currently a Hindu country with a Sunni missionary trying to convert the province, the 130774 people of Koch work the cotten fields. Koch is above Howrah and Bihar and adjacent to Santal. The people are experiencing nationalism and are of Bengali descent. In 18 months we find out whether the missionary is sucessful. Koch sends us 22 ducats and ships 14 to Ganges.
Ganges:
The swampy delta of the Ganges River hosts a very wealthy people. With a level 3 fortress to keep people away, the Hindu and Bengali people here are experiencing nationalism. The 356971 people here make Ganges the largest province in Mataram. They export Chinaware, and send us 92 ducats annualy while creating 62 in Ganges's Center of trade.
I order a Governor in Ganges.
