Now, I switched to Medieval II and I'm playing with Portugal, my home country.
I read the FAQ and I understand now how Merchants work.
But I still have a few questions:
1 - What is the purpose of the priest? It has to do with the percentage of catholicism shown in the terrain when I hover my mouse?
2 - What is the purpose of the princess? I know they marry, but how? and are there benefits?
3 - I start with Portugal surrounded by Spain and Mours. Obviously, these are my direct enemies, but when I start to attack Spain, the Pope says that I will be excommunicated. But if I leave Spain alone, going to Africa is too hard. So, what is the problem of being excommunicated?
