After consulting with his advisors and long sessions of drinking tea & coffee , he finally found a solution that could solve both problems or at least 2/3 of it. The first problem was about the government itself that he had inherited from the last king , a government that was somewhat efficient where the average age was 40 years old , that mean that people would start to die like a domino after a certain time and replacements were required , this cycle happen to go accordingly with the coronation of the young Tariathus , as the day after the coronation the priest that preceded the ceremony died of a heart attack , the royal butler died a week after and the royal gardener the hour after . Because of that the following weeks Tariathus had to oversee the hiring of proper replacements for them and the others old men & woman , after a month or so he was informed that the minister of the army and the minister of foreign affairs had died after drinking too much in a party , everyone was pretty sure that they were way after their middle life crisis but for some reason that didn't stop them from having some fun with the friends. And so Kalpia was left without an army minister and a foreign affairs minister , their post would take quite a while to fill out and it was not that they really needed right now since the great war victors left pretty clear that any war would have their deserved punishments and because of that everyone thinks they are ******** , anyways Tariathus had to wait untill his advisors told him who could (but not necessarily be ) a good choice , his advisors obviously picked obvious choices , generals that did not seen any war , administrators that could barely speak foreign languages , between others . Tariathus felt like his advisors were just teasing him before presenting him the real candidates but to no avail THOSE were the real candidates , so Tariathus set himself to search the right people for the right post , until he found the adecuate ones , one was called Giselbert Fridumar from Kaniarus and the other Archembald Leutwin from Husburg , both well educated men , by the standards of Kalpia , and also well versed in politic and administration or so he Tariathus thought , Archembald at the very least could speak 10 languages about 10 times the languages of the real candidates , Giselbert had a voice like no other and could direct men on his barrack like no other , he also knew many strategies and tactics that were supposed to be known by every Kalpian general and he also travelled a lot in the country so he also knew the terrain of his homeland , he finally sent them to do their job as ministers and set up to fix the other problem. The money problem solution needed that Giselbert made a proper trade agreement with honorifics and else , to the nation of Plebina a nation that was also trapped in the Inner sea along with Kalpia , Tariathus thought that the previous kings certainly had a lack of something in their heads as none of them had proposed the Plebians or any other nation a treaty that could last till today , he seriously thought that they had conspired to make his rule a long and painful one , but then he remembered Santilt and those thoughts left his mind , for the lucky Giselbert an envoy carried a proposal for a trade agreement between the two countries and so Giselbert only had to fill out and send a proper response something way easier than done , but Giselbert proved capable of at least doing something similar that his predecessor , this somewhat fixed the economic problem of Kalpia , but future policies were still to come and poor Giselbert would have to do more paper work in the future and nobody could stop that. -[b]Action 1[/b] Trade Agreement with the Kingdon of Plebina , +11 Economic Rating/Year Sea Trade - [b]Action 2[/b] Appoint Minister: Giselbert Fridumar Minister of the Army -5 Economic Rating - [b]Action 3[/b] Appoint Minister: Archembald Leutwin Foreign Minister -5 Economic Rating - [b]Naval Ship Assignment[/b] The 1st Royal Fleet (Port: Terson): 3 First Rates , 4 Second Rates , 4 Frigates , 4 Sloops --Inner Sea [Merchant Escort] The 2nd Royal Fleet (Port: Wular): 3 First Rates , 5 Second Rates , 3 Frigates , 5 Sloops --Inner Sea [Merchant Escort] [hider=Ships] [b]First Rates[/b] -The Elphinstone -Spitfire -Cattistock -Raglan -Glengyle -Castleton [b]Second Rates[/b] -The Eglinton -Baleine -Prospero -Meclenburgh -Greyhond -The Newton -Dieppe -Latrobe -The Glorieux [b]Frigates[/b] -Paristo -Baleine -Abergavenny -The Irwell -The Anglesea -The Eglinton -Islip -Harland -Cybele [b]Sloops[/b] -Clyde -Poulette -Sportsman -Egremont -Pendennis -Spearfish -Charlestown [/hider] - [[b]Demobilization[/b]] - [Mobilization] - [b]Research Priorities[/b] - Army [b]High[/b] (-3 Economic Rating/Year) - Navy [b]Low [/b](0 Economic Rating/Year) - Industry [b]Medium [/b](-1 Economic Rating/Year) - Social Thought [b]Medium [/b](-1 Economic Rating/Year) - Economics [b]High [/b](-3 Economic Rating/Year) [/center]
