Now I have 100%!

What can I get, can I snag all three Kutai holdings?

Yes I can, and only Mamluks and a one province minor on Borneo island inland and an ally of Malacca cares:



Warscore 42, bigger badboy of 50.2. I do it and spend more than 240 coring all three, nasty!

I have made Kutai a State with Samarinda’s Spices so those are rough. Ready?

From Sulu:

Sulu – Filipino culture, Sunni faith, Coastline, Gems, 19 dev Mill, Shipyard, Workshop Natural harbor makes us 0.57

From Kutai:

Sambaliung – J
ust Fish now but the wealthy Coal later! The accepted Bornean culture and Sunni faith, Jungle Tropical, a massive 26 dev, Shipyard, Mosque, two open spots makes us a strong 0.53 with the opportunity for a Naval Equipment Manufactory and Workshop here later.

Sangkulirang – Also Jungle Tropical, Also Bornean and Sunni, Spice trade here, 15 dev, 1.11 made here, Trade Station, Workshop and Mosque

Kutai – Former capital – Bastion, Shipyard, Mosque, Workshop – Tropical Jungle, 20 dev, also Fish, Bornean Sunni, 0.60 made here

Strong dev, and two good trade goods too. They make a lot!
