Hey Traders,
We’re thrilled to bring you the Beautiful World update—packed with features to expand your Trade Conquest experience. This update will affect save files, so prepare for a fresh start to enjoy everything new and avoid any issues!
Key Features Coming:
Beautiful World Game Mode (New!)
- Customize nations before playing: Edit Territories, GDP, Population, Names, Traits and much more.
- 10 Additional Historical Nations have been added to this list that can only been edited and played as through this Game Mod. Includes Confederate States, Soviet Union and Third Reich.
- Perfect for alternate histories or challenge runs to create your own Beautiful World.

Dynamic Labor Costs
Maintenance costs now scale with GDPPC:
- High-income (Developed Economy) (50K+ GDPPC): +50% labor costs
- Middle-income (Developed Economy) (15K-50K): Gradual 0% to +50%
- Lower-middle (Emerging Economy) (4K-15K): -25% to 0% discount
- Low-income (Undeveloped Economy) (<4K): Permanent -25% discount
Nations with strong Labor Unions like Nordic nations now start with "Labor Union" law (+10% Labor Costs and -0.1 monthly unrest in all provinces/territories).
Complimentary new research further reduces unrest by 0.05.
This is to help give the feel of "Cheaper Labor" in underdeveloped nations and higher expenses in "Developed Nations" with its own pros and cons.

World Ranking for Economy Win-Con: New World Order based on the least number of days taken to achieve Economy Win.
