How to get merchants
The following was copied word for word from the Europa Universalis forum and was done so because it might increase players understanding of the game.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
These are the factors for getting merchants that I know of.
(If you know something more please post)

Stability:

Stability;No. Of Merchants



+3 ; +3
+2 ; +3
+1 ; +2
+0 ; +1
-1 ; +0
-2 ; -1
-3 ; -2



If you have coastal provinces:
+1

If you have Protestant coastal provinces:
max +3

Attained trade level 5 and 10:
+1,+2

Domestice policy slider, Free Trade/Mercantalism:
+2/-2

Monopoly in Centre of Trade:
+1 per monopoly *

Centres of Trade owned:
+1 per COT owned

Notice!
You can never get more merchants than 12/year.

* (only as long as the monopoly is effective, the moment you loose the monopoly, you loose the extra merchant)


Its amazing what people do when they can't sleep...

Is that +1 per province, or +1 total?

? So we only get +1 for all coastal, or the rest of the list is a miscalculation... you only receive traders whether you are Protestant or Catholic.

That's not true DarkCloud. You do get merchants, per stability, per CoT owned, per trade tech level, per monopoly and for religion, for having coastal provinces, and for the domestic policy slider. Its not too hard to get 12/year before 1600....
