The different pop needs, what goods that they require, and what they can be substituted for.
Introduction
All pops in Victoria 3 have various needs depending on their wealth level, and require goods to fulfil those needs.
They do not need all goods, and any good from each category can be substituted completely for another (With a different value depending on the item’s base price.)
At the moment this is not made very clear by the game, and you have to dig through multiple tooltips to find this information. That’s why I’ve organised it into this handy guide, sorted by the wealth level of the pops.
