what do these numbers mean?
couldn't find it in the manual or FAQ. in the info box there are three numbers after gov't, what do they mean?
example: Persia - Despotism (4.5.1).
what do 4,5 & 1 mean.
answer first, laugh at the newbie second.

They show the ratio of how you are spending income between science, tax, and luxuries.

commerce split up, as WrapStorm said. it's a ratio, but it'sd always the percentage/10 (ie, it can say 5.5.0 and it will not be changed to the ratio 1:1:0)
so your numbers mean
40% tax
50% science
10% luxery

Does the released Strat guide help here? The PtW one was kinda crap, and there's volumes not documented that has been found out here.
A "Best of Apolyton" undocumented features and hints would be pretty coll, yes?
If only...

When I took a look at the Civ III manual, there is a clear illustration of the "info box" which explains all the other information found there, but these numbers do not even appear.
Nice.
