BRAZILIAN EMPIRE
Initial income: 2368
Initial cash: 2500
Reinforcement: 166
Suggested allies: Paraguay, Chile, Colombia, Venezuela
Tips:
- Argentina is your main threat. Try to ally with Paraguay as fast as u can. Once Paraguay start warring Argentina, you just have to fun him and send some troops to help him.
- Rushing Bolivia is a smart move. Ally Chile and then "eat Bolivia" with him. Done that, invading Perú is easy.
- Is very important to ally Colombia or Venezuela. That keeps safe your amazon lands. Try to avoid a Colombian - Venezuelan alliance at all costs. If that happens, encourage Perú to fight them.

PERÚ
Initial income: 1579
Initial cash: 3000
Reinforcement: 115
Suggested allies: Central America, Bolivia, Venezuela
Tips:
- Keeping Bolivia Alive is important to avoid Brazilian, Chilean or Argentinian invasions in your territories. Ally and support him.
- In the north, stablishing alliances with Central America and Venezuela prevents Colombia of attacking you. Or at least he will think twice before launching an invasion against you.

PARAGUAY
Initial income: 984
Initial cash: 6000
Reinforcement: 57
Suggested allies: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Bolivia
Tips:
- Decide if you are going to ally with Argentina or Brazil. If u ally Argentina, it is suggested to ally Bolivia so the three of you can face a possible Brazilian Chilean coalition. If you ally Brazil, ally Chile so you sandwich Argentina.

BOLIVIA
Initial income: 1072
Initial cash: 5000
Reinforcement: 57
Suggested allies: Perú, Paraguay, Argentina, Brazil
Tips:
- Allying Perú is important as it country is quite near to your cap. Allying Paraguay is also crucial as both are small countries and a war between you can be catastrophic.
- Try to avoid getting involved in the Argentinian - Brazilian war, as you are likely to be invaded by Chile.
- Bolivia is likely to lose Antofagasta in the first turns, but due Bolivian main cities are nearer to it that Chile, is easy to recover it. If Chile invades you, negotiate with Peru for help.

COLOMBIA
Initial income: 1308
Initial cash: 3000
Reinforcement: 90
Suggested allies: UK, Spain, Venezuela, Central America, Mexico.
Tips:
- Stop a Venezuelan Peruvian alliance or a Central American Peruvian alliance.
- Stablish an alliance with UK or Spain to have support in case you get invaded by your neighbors.
- Also you can peace with Perú and try to invade Venezuela or Central America.
- Allying Mexico is a good move but only if he doesn't get invaded by UK or Spain.

CHILE
Initial income: 1127
Initial cash: 5000
Reinforcement: 67
Suggested allies: Brazil, Argentina, Spain, UK.
Tips:
- The loneliest boy in town. Your only viable alliances are Argentina or Brazil. However, Spain gets a event T10 near Ecuador, he may provide help against Perú.
- Allying UK and getting funds is also a good movement.
- You can also try to make Colombia fight Perú, so you can invade Bolivia without opposition.

VENEZUELA
Initial income: 1152
Initial cash: 3500
Reinforcement: 81
Suggested allies: Spain, Perú, Central America, Brazil
Tips:
- You are very likely to be invaded by UK, so stablishing an alliance with Spain is very important.
- Making peace with Colombia is smart only if you have an alliance with Perú. Otherwise Colombia is just getting time to invade you.
- Rushing Colombia with Perú in the first turns can be a success only if you have the Spanish support.

SPAIN
Initial income: 1243
Initial cash: 4500
Reinforcement: 34
Suggested allies: Central America, Central America UK
Tips:
- The game for Spain depends on his relations with UK. Despite stablishing an alliance with UK and eating Central America, Mexico, Colombia or Venezuela sounds "fun", that alliance is dangerous, unless UK and Spain are pro.
- The most reliable option for Spain is allying Central America and invade Mexico.
- In "late game" you have events to invade South America, regarding the "Hispanic - South American war". You can ask Chile for help to invade Bolivia or Perú. Losing those troops doesn't affects your power in the Caribbean.

BRITTISH EMPIRE
Initial income: 1779
Initial cash: 6000
Reinforcement: 65
Suggested allies: Confederacy, Mexico, Spain.
Tips:
- Try to be allied with Spain and Colombia so your cap is safe.
- As the Confederacy can't win alonse, you must decide if you want to support them funding or directly deploying troops against USA.
- Your policy in Caribe should be to avoid any conflict, unless until turn 5. After that, your stack is strong enough to dissuade everyone of invading you.

THE UNION
Initial income: 2664
Initial cash: 3000
Reinforcement: 180
Suggested allies: México, Spain.
Tips:
- Though you are strong than the Confederacy, and even if UK helps him winning is still possible, allying Mexico is the only way you ensure you win the war. Also you can get ganged so use diplomacy since T1.
- You are likely to lose the states far from the northeast coast, so be careful. In the "apalaches front", once you take Virginia, DC is safe.
- Basically, after winning against the Confederacy, you can rush any Caribbean country (Colombia, Venezuela, Spain, Latin America).

THE CONFEDERACY
Initial income: 1926
Initial cash: 3000
Reinforcement: 129
Suggested allies: UK, México , Spain, Central America.
Tips:
- You will only get two events in all the game, so you must take advantage of it. Don't spent time trying to get allies before invading The Union, because you will lose the event advantage. If UK doesn't ally you, your chances of winning are very low.
- Despite being weaker in the "apalaches front", your event gives you a huge advantage in the plains during the first turns. Taking Missouri prevents USA of getting their event, so that must be your goal.

SECOND MEXICAN EMPIRE
Initial income: 1626
Initial cash: 3000
Reinforcement: 142
Suggested allies: Colombia, The Confederacy, The Union, UK.
Tips:
- You are a strong country. Evaluate if it is better to support the Confederacy or the Union. Remember you also have to take care of your southern borderline.
- Colombia is a good ally to avoid Central America of invading you together with Spain.
- Despite it isn't necessary, allying UK is also good.

CENTRAL AMERICA
Initial income: 1098
Initial cash: 4500
Reinforcement: 84
Suggested allies: Perú, , Spain, Venezuela, Mexico
Tips:
- Ecuador represents half of your income. Allying Peru is crucial to avoid losing it. Neglet any deal where a player offers you peace in exchange of Ecuador, as you would be defenseless without the income.
- Try to stablish an alliance with Spain and Venezuela. Having those countries as allies gives you chance to be protected against Mexico and Colombia, that are likely to ally to gang you.
- Diplomacy is very important on this spot.

UPDATE: Events of The Union and Confederacy were erased temporarily as more games were required to test balance.
