Using the diplomacy screen you may learn about and interact with the other nations in the world. The tabs at the sides of the lower part of the screen determine what actions you will take.
Whenever you open this screen you will begin on the information tab, a large blue ‘I’. With this tab selected, you cannot take diplomatic actions. Instead you will be learning about other countries and the world diplomatic situation.
The tabs on the right hand side lead to action interfaces. Here you may set trade policies, provide grants to the leaders of other lands, and make diplomatic overtures such as non-aggression pacts.
This turn you should:
1. Use the information tab to explore the world. Find the Minor Nation of Wodan. Your country already has an embassy with this nation. You have some trade consulates with other Minor Nations.
2. Use the diplomatic overtures tab to establish trade consulates or embassies in a few other nations.
