historical port ownership for nations

[Thonys]

Hi all.

Many nations are represented in the caribbean

of course there are small nations and larger nations

but is there a restriction in the game that shows that?

a small example pirates did not have many ports and did not rule over many islands

is there also a maximum to the number of islands /ports a nation can possess?

 

is there a max,  ( there is a minimum...)

or maximum like 25 ports for every nation or 10 for every clan  

discuss...

-------------------------------------------------------

points of Thinking about: 

-The Zerg!

-clan ownership for inactive clans

-possession of ports owned by one ( zerg )unhistorical nation 

-difficulty of nations

-small nations who are unrealistic big 

-big historical nations who have been one ported to a couple of ports..

- unrealistic port places

-ecc...

-game status on this point

Pirates were never a nation.

I've long since been a fan of exponential increasing maintenance costs.

Main reason for the establishment of Colonies was trade and control of trade routes.

[Vernon Merrill]

another thing to remember was that the VAST majority of these ports were, in real life, nothing more than a small backwater village.

This game does very little, other than what might be available in the shop, to differentiate between a Cartagena and a Baracoa...
