With the hit that my nation takes for having the religious disconnection, I am going to focus on research and trade, not the military - at least not right now.
I move my slider one step towards innovation. This gives us better chance at researching techs with obvious disadvanatges.
One thing I saw when I looked it up. My CATHOLIC nation is in the ORTHODOX tech group. In this game, some tech groups advance faster than others, with Catholocism as the fastest of those. Orthodox is 90% as fast as Catholics, so we'll be behind our Catholic brothers. Sad.
This is in addition to the religious disconnect hit.
I send out my five diplomats to get royal marriages with Athens, Cyprus, Morea, and two Italian powers I can't remember. Athens accepts and one of the Italian states accepts. Other Italian provinces send some marriage proposals over, and I accept.
I am now in the hurry up and wait stage of the game.
