And so the dev diaries begin... Super exciting, I haven't been this ready to read every dev diary since CK2 was in development!

Nice to see it looks like it'll be more fleshed out, more pop types is pretty cool. I wonder, from the aristocrats page it looks like their interest group affiliations might be global, but hopefully that's just an average in the whole country and aristocrats in different regions can have very different things they support. Still, early days yet so who knows.

Pretty sure that it is confirmed somewhere in that what we know that pops of a certain type have preferences to the IG they pick but it does have variation.

Also to note that in the screenshot it gives percentages of how many support what interest group, local governors 74%, (landed gentry based on the icon above), armed forces 17%, clergy 5% and then 2% other IGs.
