 * Economy: The economy of Matagaskar is based mainly on agriculture and fishing, there's also trade going on with the Swahili. The Malagasy economy stands as one of the strongest and most developed in all of Sub-Saharan Africa, mostly due to the effect of foreign contact. Matagaskar controls the entire island of the same name and holds influence in parts of East Africa.

 * Navy:
 * 10 Adananita class ships
 * 7 Mer'ana class ships
 * 8 transport ships
 * Diplomacy:
 * Mtende, Pemba and Bangalla: We offer you protection against Mutapa, we only want some tribute in exchange except for Mtende where we would like to establish a trade post colony.
 * Avesta: We should co-operate more and stick together, we both follow Zoroastrianism after all and we can put previous conflicts behind us. Can you please fackeng rëspouond?
 * Events:
 * Andriamanelo Again: Emperor Andriamanelo is still in power and to fit in with the whole "unification" thing he makes some reforms or whatever. One thing he does to stop the vassals of the realm from seeking more power to themselves is to use history itself. He digs up old documents, going as far back as the early 1400s that legitimize his position as monarch and you can in a way trace his lineage back to Andrianerinerina, son of Zanahary (which in Tombovelan Zoroastrian exists as a powerful god and the specific god of the Malagasy people, but he is still under Ahura Mazda). This way he can basically say "I descend from a deity itself so I am emperor and I do what I want lol."
 * Order of Sihanaka: Same as previous turns, they just convert heathens and get paid for it.
 * Increasing Population: From living standards increasing (by medieval standards) as well as expansion, such as through the conquest of the entirety of Matagaskar, our population has increased by quite the margin.
 * Swords: Swords have become a much more useful weapon to us. They start to phase out spears a bit and also the spears become more adaptable due to how warfare changes over time.
 * Settlement of Maorisy: Ranjeva sets out to settle Maorisy (Mauritius) mainly for the purposes of studying plant life and animals there. Ranjeva, his family and some other settlers thus sail out to Maorisy in 1582 and colonize it in the name of Matagaskar. Although the territory does in a way act independent due to its small population and distance from the mainland. But it's not like many laws on the mainland need to be enforced on this territory so yeah.
