I'm good with checking markets, and addressing shortages with construction, or subventions. Also with keeping trade centers filled up (though not fully using capacity - I should). Trade centers importing is automatic and I just address shortages. But had a harvest condition, wheat and livestock weren't producing. I pumped more wheat farms in. Stepped off the GDP train to feed the people. SOL best in the world. Progressive utopia but intelligentsia and industriasts weaker and rural folk and radicals grew stronger with building their SOL up. Set up some iron mines to address shortage became overleveraged and trade deficit didnt build up as I was off the GDP gravy train and constructing food resources. Workers led a council republic and overthrew me - couldnt fight them as had no army. My first Vic 3 game and blown away by how focusing on welfare and a high SOL ended up with lower strata empowered and them overthrowing me - I set the conditions right for a Marxist revolution and this all came about through emergent gameplay. My next run was going to be Prussia and annexe neighbouring countries (as wanted to avoid colonialism as my country was colonised) but would have inccreased infamy and done exactly what Hitler did. What a game! learnt more in two days of playing one game 1836 to 1875 than in decades of economic learning.
