I just purchased 3 million population at one time and my economy tanked. Employment dropped from 90 to 72 and now I'm losing money.

So if, there are any CEOs out there who would like to set up shop, the tax rate in The Kingdom of Sacred is 0%. Feel free to start a new corporation there!

Thanks Vali. Dropped it to 60% and I'm about breaking even now. Some CEOs have come as well and I appreciate that. I'm still in the 70s in unemployment so if anybody wants to relocate or start a new corporation feel free to move in.

I feel for you.

Mine dipped down to the low 60s but it's been steadily gaining thanks to CEOs and a few state corps. I don't know if I'll have the same problem with distributions. I think I had a pretty good balance when I did it and from what I understand, the new pop should have joined in similar proportion. I guess it depends on the sort of corps you start as well....

Good luck with that.

When buying population, it seems that it comes in the same ratios as existing population. So if 15% of your current pop is Teachers, 15% of the new pop will be Teachers.

Just keep that in mind when buying new pop.

Is that a for-sure Nikos? If so, very good to know, thanks, anyone else verify that?
