Even if random events would apply to income (some does, like those events that permanently raise or reduce your population in a province), there is no event in turn 0. If one of such events happen, you will see the graph of the nation raising, just like you do when you raise the taxes (see my own country for example: it raised the income from turn 0 to turn 1. That *might* be taxes or *might* be an event. In any case, the *starting point* is what matters here) So the begining of the game is allways a trustworthy measure to make a statistical analysis of the scales, becouse nothing else can modify that very first data.
