I did not want to pay heed to nation exports so much at first, but looking at how some have more uses than others makes me doubt my export choices. Pearls are, well - not so useful?

Think of it this way, some resources don't make your wealth rise that much but are very useful(ex: lumber) but others rise your wealth more(ex: pearls)
