 * Economy: The economy of Imerina is based mainly on agriculture and fishing, there's also trade going on with the Swahili and various peoples on our home island including the other Malagasy states of Betsimisaraka (even though relations are strained at this point), Mahafaly and Bara. Contact has been established with the Ahuric Adnanite people and we have a major trade relationship, extending into influence and what could be seen as a de facto alliance with eachother. The Merina economy stands as one of the strongest and most developed in all of Sub-Saharan Africa, mostly due to the effect of foreign contact.

 * Events:
 * ZoroastriAncestry: We are the future of this island. No other people group or state on Matagasykara have become this developed, strong and influential that it even crosses the borders of our island (even if not that much). The fate of Matagasykara is colonization by the French unification and we are the ones to make that happen. Considering the situation between the ethnic groups have been generally peaceful in Imerina and people other than the Merina have lived within our borders since the time of our founder Andrianerinera AND the fact that Haintenist beliefs and myths and Zoroastrianism are all kinda syncretically combined in the Zoroastrian works of Tombovelo, means that general expansion shouldn't be seen as negative (or at least that's what the nobles of Imerina believe). Thus missionary work across the island and on the most relevant Swahili states: Nipele, Bangalla, Pemba and Mtende. Surveying the coast further also leads to the discovery of some form of conflict between Kiwa and Mutapa although no further information of this rests in our hands.
 * Southern Expansion: Through missionary work, integration through trade and general settling, the lands to the south that remain under tribes are to be incorporated into Imerina over time, first as unorganized territories to later become subdivisions of our realm.
 * New Second in Line: Princess Rafohy, the heir to the throne and her husband Razakatsitakatrandriana give birth to their first child, Andriamanelo, in 1546, making him second in line to the throne.
 * Rovas of Mahajanga and Analamanga: A rova is a type of fortified royal complex, created by the Andriana (nobles) of Imerina. There is a rova in every city, but the most prestigious and amazing one is in Ambanja. Well at least it was until the fire in 1520 happened. With the power lying in Mahajanga and it being the most populous city of Imerina, the capital is officially moved to Mahajanga, along with a renovation of its rova. In Analamanga the start of the building of a rova on a hill near the city centre begins, partly to have a stronghold in our south but also because it has been a favourite spot for Queen Rangita and other nobles to visit at times.
