	Goal	Key
	The Hansa and the Scandinavians are trying to undercut us from the Baltic market. We must build marketplaces at certain key provinces and promote our centers of trade in order to keep up with them.
	Let us never sit idle, even in peaceful times. Instead we must use our resources with industry, in order to make sure that we have funds available in time if misfortune should strike upon us.
	Great advances are being made in the field of production, both technological and organizational. Let us invest greatly in new manufactories, a great industrious revolution might soon be upon us.
	There's no doubt that the more we produce the more wealth we'll be able to amass. To that end we should increase our manufactories so that we are able to produce even more.
	As our vast industrial holdings grow, demand for fuel grows ever higher as mechanized industry takes shape around our nation. Increase the supply of refined materials.
	The spiritual needs of our people and the teachings of Islam are at the heart of our society. In order to fulfill these needs, we must fund the expansion of our holy places.
	Our people have a great merchant tradition, but we have always traded with the foreigners that have come to our coasts, now it is time that we build a great merchant navy to travel to faraway lands and bring the finest riches.
	Our people need guidance from our spiritual leaders and what better place to have them share their wisdom than some new religious places?

	As our empire thrives under the rule of the Aq Qoyunlu, we must remember to honor our faith, the bedrock upon which our moral and ethical principles rest. A symbol of our spiritual commitment and architectural prowess must rise from the heart of our realm, the city of Tabriz. Our mission is to construct a majestic mosque, the Blue Mosque, that will serve not only as a house of worship but also as a beacon of cultural and artistic achievement.

	Fire is a symbol of purity, and, although our religion is far away from one of fire-worship, its light which represents Ahura Mazda's energy is holy to us. With the Muslim conquest, many Fire Temples have been destroyed; their lights have been snapped out. We must restore their glory and reconstruct the Fire Temples.
	Any growing country must maintain a reasonably sized army. By expanding our forces we can both further our political interests abroad and stimulate our domestic economy.

	The centralization of a nation commences as the ruler, with a steady hand, guides his people towards a common center. For us, this center must be a prosperous town overlooking the bountiful Baltic coast.
	Bulgaria once ruled a great Empire that spanned much of the Balkans. We shall return these lands to our domain!
	Bulgaria is once again counted among the nations of the world. We must restore our core territories and secure our independence.
	As the principal defenders of Christendom against the Ottoman threat, we have come to be known as the Bulwark of Christianity. By demonstrating our ability to match anything the infidel can throw at us, we can ensure that this title is thoroughly deserved.

	The upstart Dukes of Burgundy fancy themselves a great power in their own right, yet in truth they are a mere vassal. We should remind them of this fact.
	The Royal Navy of the British Isles allows the English to project power all over the world, and most importantly in Germany. We must put an end to their meddling, and burn their wooden wall to ashes that will rest at the bottom of the ocean!

	The ways of our warriors are guided at all times by a sound philosophy of virtue and proper conduct.
	While the Timurids were the dominant power of Persia, and still are a thorn in our side, the Turkmen tribe of Qara Qoyunlu are no enemy to underestimate. Their strength and combat experience make them formidable foes, who have their eyes set on Persia. We must strike first, and eliminate the Black Sheep before they have a chance to invade us.
	The so-called 'Great' wall of China is nothing but a relic of an old age. We must overrun its defenses and spill into China, ride across the lands and spread death, fear and doom by flying our banner on any and all fortifications the Emperor may hide behind.
	The Chinese Emperor foolishly believes that a wall can protect him from his enemies. A direct assault would be risky, but there are other ways to bypass a wall...
	The Sound Dues in Sjaelland have been a thorn in our side, taxing passing vessels and non-Danish merchants as they ferry their goods through the pass. We must take the necessary steps to mitigate that.
	Our ultimate objective is the restoration of the Caliphate, lead by the descendants of the same tribes that aided Muhammad during his initial conquests. No foreign force will be able to stop us in reaching this noble goal.
	The territory of the Cordoban Caliphate almost entirely encompassed Iberia. Rout the three Spains, and take back what is rightfully ours!
	Calpulli, meaning 'Large Houses', were large households that were split into kin-based groups in the city-states of Mexico. They allowed for a more efficient gathering of tribute, as well as the land usage for growing crops as well as producing food. In these 'Large Houses', the women were taught how to cook, take care of children, or any other duty that women were supposed to fulfill in Aztec society, whilst men were taught the ways of warfare.
	Blood is thicker than water, thicker than our walls. The main form of organization of our tribe are the tiyospaye, or camp circles, consisting of members of the same clan united by kinship. This kind of affiliation brings us stability and a place to call home.
	Yet more Ming loyalists have fled to the hills of Burma, seeking shelter among Shan and Bamar chiefs. We must show them that there is nowhere to hide from those who righteously hold the Mandate.
	The house of a proud nomadic people, the shahs of Iran and horseriders of the east will make for a valuable addition to our illustrious and victorious military campaigns.
	Even with a strong Novgorod to check their power, the Muscovites remain an unacceptable threat. We must put a Lithuanian king upon their throne, or else strike at Moscow itself.
	Scattered throughout Nusantara are a number of ruined or abandoned Candi temples of mixed Hindu and Buddhist worship. We must restore these temples to renew our faith.
	Not all of our rivals are so close by that we can march our armies over land and defeat them that way. We need a navy, but to build a navy, we need ports.
	If we mean to become the new Kings of France we must seize Paris, the historic seat of French authority.
	Venice has long been our rival for the control of Northern Italy. By conquering the Terra Firma, we can reduce Venice's holdings in Northern Italy to the city itself and assert our superiority over the city once and for all!
	Venice is the crown jewel of Italy. Our control of the north will never be secure until she is brought under our rule.
	While our people get more and more familiar with the writings of the Bible and the teachings of Christ, the catholic influence in Central Africa grows. If we want that to continue we will need an official appointed cardinal. It would be beneficial if we got into contact with the Pope or at least with one of the catholic countries with a cardinal.
	The Caribbean is home to many sugar plantations, all wealthy and ours for the taking. Let us set sail and colonize these lands in the name of the state.
	The natives on our newfound territory of Hispaniola are friendly, pleasant, and most importantly, gullible. We should claim this region as our own by planting more our boots on the ground.

	Our Frankish forefathers ruled vast territories across France, Germany and Italy under the great King Charlemagne. The growth of our nation's power has placed these former glories within our grasp. We shall emulate our forefathers and dominate all of Europe.
	The Kingdom of Hungary has become a battleground in the struggle between great powers. We must lead our armies to the land of the Danube and the Carpathian mountains and stake our own claim to the region, lest it fall into the hands of our opportunistic rivals.

	We must position ourselves as those in charge of determining the flow of exotic goods into European markets. That position would certainly see much wealth amass within our treasuries.
