Great projects — the unique monuments like the Hagia Sophia or the Forbidden City — are normally tied to specific provinces and take years to upgrade. The great_project console command creates one in its home province instantly.
How to build great projects in EU4
- Open the console.
- Type
great_project <id>and pressEnter. The project appears in its home province at its starting tier; upgrade it further in the province's monument panel.
Examples
Every monument, its location and the bonuses it grants at each upgrade tier are on the EU4 great projects page.
Frequently asked questions
How do I build a great project in EU4?
Use great_project <id>, e.g. great_project hagia_sophia. The monument is created in its home province at its starting tier.
What are the great project IDs in EU4?
Each monument has an id such as hagia_sophia, forbidden_city or kiel_canal. Every great project, its location and its upgrade-tier bonuses are listed on the EU4 great projects page.
Can the great_project command also remove a monument?
Yes — great_project creates or destroys a great project, so running it on a project that already exists in its province removes it.
