Looks about right.

(The GB and MS came from the 1924 Jane's...wonder if the Shah had a royal yacht by this point?)

I can't help but think that investing in another factory doesn't make much sense. You are able to pay 1.0IP maximum into the project, which means that it will take 10 years until you get your new factory. Maybe better to invest it in warships or slipways/drydocks.

It's certainly a long-term strategy, unless the Shah can get a foreign investor (or rules are added to allow for oil revenues to be plowed into what the sim calls factories).

I have to agree with RA, When Denmark built it's 11th factory, I had to suspend most of my building for 18+ months, and that was starting from a base 5 times greater than Persia's.

Build a large fleet of small ships, MTB's etc., to harass any attacker, while calling LOUDLY for help!

Heh, probably 15. Hmmmm. What's needed, I guess, at least for WesWorld II, is a way to separate available income from domestic production. Some countries, like modern Saudi Arabia for example, have lots of available income (at least when the oil market's high), but little domestic production capacity. They can buy weapons on the world market, but have little capability to make them at home. If Persia's oil resources are developed, then they'd be in the same boat: a fair amount of money, but domestic production is out, at least for a while.

Some conversion to the WW factory system could be possible: say an equivalent of 1,000 tons of income converts to 0.05 IP (half the IPs normally generated by domestic factories). That way, a resource-rich country could, if it WANTED to, boot-strap itself up, but it would be a long-term process and one that's more expensive than just buying things outright overseas.

For what it's worth, Wesworld India enjoys a strong co-existence between Hinduism (practiced by the majority) and Islam, with acceptance of other religions such as Buddhism. This is a holdover from the efforts of some of the more enlightened Mughal emperors who held power in the early history of the empire.

Both true, but Turkey's not an Arab state either.

I think that was his point. Can't be sure, but I think they're most Persian and Kurdish, although I could be horribly wrong about the former and there's actually a Turk ethnic group in the majority.
