Confederation of Southern States shared national focus tree/scriptoutput

Focus	Prerequisites	Effects
Confederate Constitutional Convention Secession itself was the first step. Now comes the hard part. We have to create a government that can actually preserve our newfound independence, one with a constitution and a clear structure.		Hidden effect: Trigger country event “Election Day” Custom effect tooltip: While this focus completes, various events will allow us to draft a Constitution that will shape the future of our new country.

The Southern Economy The Southern Economy rests on two things--oil and agriculture. The first we have in abundance, and the second is constantly threatened. Living as we do in the deserts and dry plains between Equestria and the Jungle, we must capitalize every advantage.	Never The following will bypass the focus: The Constitutional Convention is over (?)	Custom effect tooltip: This national focus will automatically bypass once the Convention is over
Physiocracy The strength and wealth of nations lies in their agricultural production, or at least that's what our leading intellectuals say. It stands to reason that we should look to improve our farms.

The Apple Barons The families which dominate the apple trade are some of the most powerful in the south.

Big AgriBusiness The diversifying Apple Barons need a bit more land, and we could use the extra tax income. Smaller farms and homesteads are practically a step away from failure, and letting the barons gobble up the land helps us all.
