##### Open Alpha 9
### System Changes
- Migration System:
- The amount of possible migrants from the peasantry now scales with tenacy rights and peasant freedom
- Added a modification which modifies migration speed into cities the further you are from the amenities cap (faster if below, slower if ahead)
- Added a forced migration system and menu to allow for the player (no AI yet) to move population around
- Population movement costs ducats and military monarch power and is based on a multitude of factors
- Ducat costs gets reinvested into the pops wealth pool and infrastructure in the source/target provinces

- Dependent on province setup forced migration can help with ongoing culture conversions
- to be done:
- Make forced migration influence religious setups
- Make forced migration influence local elite loyalty
- Added a local Promotion/Demotion system so that pops can move between classes in their own province (Atm only used for Peasants -> Residents)
- Promotion/Demotion works with an ideal resting point for each class, which is derived from a multitude of metrics
- Currently this system mainly does allow for cities to grow out of their local peasantry pool, which helps with overall lower migrant amount and small nations city growth
- Promotion/Demotion happens as a percentage of current class size vs. ideal resting point usually at about 2% of the difference per year

- Population Growth System:
- Increased death rates the further away a city is from the amenities cap
-> slightly increased general city death rates to get closer to historical city growths
- Increased peasant birth rate for provinces with lots of unused rural land capacity (settlement of north america, stepps etc.)
-> slightly reduced overall peasantry growth rate to get closer to historical growth values
- Made the amenities cap scale with additional units above the previous rank at diminishing returns (building single units now gives boost to the cap)
