Province improvements
From EU3 Wiki

Overview
Province improvements are structures that serve an administrative, military or trade purpose on a provincial level. In game terms, these are represented by constructions that can be built in individual provinces assuming a tech level and cost requirement are met. They come in three forms: buildings, fortifications and manufactories. Province improvement costs, prerequisites and effects can be found in buildings.txt while the required technology levels can be found in the respective tech files.
In Nomine and Heir to the Throne
Buildings and Fortifications
Buildings have effect on a provincial level only, meaning their improvements apply only to actions undertaken in the province they are present in. All buildings, except the War College and Admiralty, can all be built in a single province, assuming the technology and price requirements are met.
Forts are key to holding provinces in Europa Universalis. Without a fort, an enemy or rebel army will immediately occupy a province. If a fort exists then a siege begins. If you have a province without a fort, it is advisable to have some troops stationed there. Your troops will give you some time to respond with reinforcements without losing control of the province. Your provinces without forts can be vulnerable to unexpected revolts.
The garrisons inside forts do not cost military maintenance and do not count towards your nations forcelimit. If a fort is successfully taken, it will begin with a garrison of 100 soldiers. Each month the garrison will increase up to the garrison limit without drawing on your manpower. Forts can be removed via the Fortifications neglected event when the Offensive/Defensive slider is towards the Offensive side.
In In Nomine and Heir to the Throne, the effectiveness of your forts is modified by your province's defensiveness. Defensiveness increases the time between siege checks, and increases the effective fort level of your fort.
Note: The effects of forts are cumulative. The values given are the sum of those effects (e.g. Fort Level 2 does not give an additional 2000 to the garrison but adds 1000 to the Fort Level 1 garrison value).

Manufactories
Manufactories give a 6 ducat bonus to local income plus a 5 ducat contribution to certain technology investments. The local bonus for all but the University and Fine Arts Academy is doubled to 12 ducats with the presence of certain resources. Manufactory costs begin at 1000 ducats and increases proportional to the amount of manufactories you build. All manufactories have a construction time of 60 months.
Unlike buildings, you may only build one manufactory per province.

| Refinery | Trade | Wine or Sugar | Trade 14 | +1% Population growth |
| Naval Manufactory (Wharf) | Naval | Naval Supplies | Naval 15 | +1% Population growth |
