- Chinese localization updated.

- Rebalanced likelihood of events for the Growth of the Labour Movement Journal Entry.
- Updated localization.

Growth of the Labor Movement Journal Entry
- Adds a new journal entry for countries with the Illegal Unions Law.
- The journal entry triggers when the following conditions are met:
-- Labor Movement has been researched.
-- At least one of the following is true: has the Universal Suffrage Law, has the Protected Speech Law, has researched Socialism, has researched Anarchism.
-- At least 6% of the country's population are Machinists.

- The journal entry is based around a Strength of the Labor Movement integer. This one is a combination of the clout of the Trade Unions and the clout of any other interest group led by a pro-union leader and if certain progressive laws have been implemented making it easier for the illegal Associations to operate such as No Police and Protected Speech.
- The Strength of the Labour Movement is reduced by police and home affairs institutions, if dedicated/militarized police and secret police laws are active respectively.
- Events will further increase or decrease the Strength of the Labor Movement.
- The stronger the Labour movement is, the worse it will affect the country as well as enable some more severe events until the Journal Entry has been completed.

- The journal entry can be ended in one of three ways:
-- Having either the Regulated or Free Unions laws. If trade unions have grown too powerful, only Free Unions will end it.
-- Have Outlawed Dissent, Secret Police and either Militarized or Dedicated Police. Home Affairs and Policing Institutions must be 4 or higher.
-- Have Worker's Protections, Old Age Pensions and Public Healthcare laws. Workplace Safety, Social Security and Healthcare Institutions must all be 3 or higher.

Business Cycle
- Hard Currency Central bank has access to the "Devalue Currency" and "Redenominate Currency" decisions.
-- "Devalue Currency" gives the government a one-time significant cash injection, at the cost of escalating penalties to Prestige and Market Confidence.
-- "Redonominate Currency" removes the penalties accrued from devaluing currencies at the cost of government expenses, bureaucracy and instability for three years.

- Adjusted other effects of Foreign Affairs laws.

Foreign Affairs Law Group
- Needs a new save to function. Existing saves will work fine, but without the new law category.
- Adds a new Law Group, Foreign Affairs With four laws:
- Aristocratic Embassies: Base Law, adds no institution and gives a set +200 influence, -10% leverage resistance and +10% aristocrat power.
- Professional Foreign Service: +10% leverage from diplomatic pacts and +10% bureaucrat strength. Gives +15% influence and +1 Maximum interest per institution Level.
- Militarized Foreign Service: +50% officers political power. Gives +10% influence, +10 diplomatic maneuvers and +5% military tech spread per institution Level.
- Intelligence Agency: +25% bureaucrats political strength and +25% leverage resistance. +15% influence, +50 authority, +5% tech spread and +5% additional military tech spread per institution level.

Business Cycle
- Various tweaks to Business Cycle values: chance of triggering a boom or a bust somewhat increased at volatility 6-10, and the chance plateaus more quickly. Calculation of Market Confidence slightly adjusted.
- Recessions now have some potential additional options depending on technology and central banking institution.
- Recession options:
- With Macroeconomics and Central Banking institution of 3 or higher: Stimulus spending through government expenses, reducing the malus on construction throughput and investment efficiency.
- With a Central Banking institution of 2 or higher: Protect industries, three options in total (primary - farming, logging and mining, secondary - light and heavy industries, and tertiary - service and other tertiary industries) reducing the throughput penalty on said sector and having a smaller effect on construction and investment efficiency loss, at the cost of government expenses and interest groups becoming upset.
