You really want to play Zeal for conversions in the first turn, to give yourself a religious foothold and several revolt threats.Also consider negotiating with the French & Spanish. Given that the French can't defend themselves against your revolts anyway, you should be able negotiate a one-revolt-only deal for T1, freeing you to throw your resources at the Netherlands & piracy. The Spanish might (maybe, I think it's a weak deal for Spain, but I've negotiated it several times) be willing to give up Amsterdam in exchange for freeing their hand against the Turks.
Either way, the sooner you have a capital in each area, the sooner you get free regulars, so I make that my T1 priority.
