I'm really tempted to start learning how to use Gimp so I can draw MSPaint communist murals and put pictures of them on real walls, complete with textures. It would be funny.

Is there anything else growable other than papayas, pineapples, and corn?

CHURCHES
YOU MUST BUILD A CHURCHES
From my limited experience, you have two choices: Build a church ASAP or bribe/arrest/kill the religious leader. On account of how religion quality drops to <20 in 10 years and all religious supporters start rebelling.
Also, you must build a logging camp. Kill two birds with one stone. And if there isn't enough workforce to support it fire all but 2 of your dockworkers.

Is there anything else growable other than papayas, pineapples, and corn?
Tobbaco (1000 per load (highest unprocessed farming price), can be processed into cigars) sugar (Practically impossible to grow (so not a cash crop), can be processed into rum (V. Profitable)) coffee (Needs high-up location)

Also, I notice that the ruins are very close to your town- Perhaps a cheap tourism industry could be set up?

I've honestly never played this game, but it looks very interesting.

Religious crybabies aren't all that scary in my experience.  Besides, that's a long way off.  Save money for investments that make money for now.

Downsizing!  Capitalism approves!

That's up to you I'd say Joe. I don't see anything wrong with going on with what we have now.

It's only been three years, if you work at max speed (I never saw why you shouldn't) you can do that in 10 minutes or something.
So go ahead, if you want to. I guess.

Okay then, we just continue as normal. Anyway, after thinking it over the church seemed to be a good idea.



Gonna have to hire a priest from out of the country though, as we still lack a high school.

Church done, but it seems the people want a doctor.



So we got a clinic in the works now.
