Your examples are from the 18th century. Is there a logical connection with the story line of the game?

An essay on church architecture is not needed to establish that a small island in the Caribbean which started from next to nothing for population and infrastructure in 1950 would be unlikely to have faux 18th century churches -- or even structures resembling them which might be recycled churches.

What may be needed is an essay on anachronisms.

First of all, not all Tropico Islands just 'started', some do have a longer history.
Second, what makes you believe that Caribbean churches constructed in the '50's would not resemble the traditional architectural styles?
How would a 1950 Caribbean church look like in your book?

Is looking forward to donning the El Presidente title again.
