Temples are really all you have to spend money on. And the occasional fort.

Ermor should try and have a temple and castle in every province, since they need both to summon the maximum possible number of troops. You also want to be very careful of where you put temples, since it's relatively easy to destroy one that isn't protected by a castle.
