Good Luck.
General advice:
Talk to everyone,
Identify the experienced players
Do exactly what they tell you !
That way, you will soon become an experienced player = adict.
Ignore the advice and you get knocked out and probably decide not to
play again.

I mark on everything, with a set of small font labels that I ran off
from my WP.  i.e. all the starting pops eg

Sin
MT/T
*+

Would be a Sinda Major Town/Tower, hidden, capital

Cor
MT/F
P

Would be a Corsair Major Town Fort

You usually know all about the changes to the pops in your area as the
game progresses, so you don't need to plot them.  Once you've declared
(are you the Easterling, or are you planning to bash him - don't)
someone on the team should be keeping a data base of all the population
centre changes since game start.

It's worth it.  Just you wait 'n see.
