	Goal	Key
	All of West African trade shall be done under our supervision. We can't allow foreigners and rivals to find a way of exploiting the trade of our home region.
	With Arkhangelsk established as a trading port, we must make sure that we can properly exploit the White Sea trade. Furs should be taken from Perm in the east and Laponia in the west, to be sold in the markets of Arkhangelsk.
	The profit that comes for trading in German goods should benefit German people in German nations. We must take measures to ensure that German markets are protected against foreign involvement.
	The profit that comes from trading in German goods should benefit German people in German nations. We must take measures to ensure that German markets are protected against foreign involvement.
	We have become much more than a our nation in Central Africa. We have risen to become the defender of Africa who protects the people from the opportunistic Europeans!
	Catholicism has always been at war with hostile neighbors seeking to eradicate it. To protect our people, shield them from malicious outsiders and defend our legacy, God willing we shall protect it to the last man!
	The Catholic Faith - the true and only correct Christian faith - is at risk of being annihiliated by this heretic reformation attempt. We must show Europe our colors, and support our Catholic brethren with our military aid.
	The Greeks have struggled to protect the Faith in the Balkans. This solemn duty now falls on our shoulders, and we must do what we can to defend the people with the shield of our authority.
	The Holy Cities of Islam are held by weak and decadent dynasties. We need to take claim over the cities and take control over them.
	The ruler that unites the archipelago into a single realm will be blessed by the gods. As the ruler of our nation, it is my duty to bring them all together.
	The people of West Prussia cry out to be free of Teutonic rule. We must offer them our support in their struggle for liberty, and we may also inflict a decisive defeat on our hereditary enemies.
	Having united Brandenburg with Prussia we now have the problem of how we defend the two halves of our realm. To make our realm a more defensible unit we must conquer all of Prussia and not just the parts currently under our control.

	Prussia is known to have one of the most professional armies in Europe. Many military theorists have studied how their armies function, and wish to implement them for our armies.
	With a strong economy and strong finances, we are in a position to fund extensive construction projects across the country. After all, what's the point of accumulating money if you don't show off and spend it?
	The Battle of Meloria in 1284 once established Genoese superiority over the Pisans, permanently ending the Pisan naval empire. However, those days have long since passed, and the control we could once exert over the Pisans has slipped from our grasp. In recent times, we have struggled to maintain our independence from our stronger neighbors. If we are to reclaim our greatness, we must take a leaf out of the Venetian book and ensure that we have a strong Italian core to our trade empire by reasserting our ancestral dominance over Pisa and expanding our control over the Ligurian coast.
	With the recent change, and the invaders' discovery of our continent, the geopolitical nature of our lands has drastically changed. Our people have noticed that, and are demanding we take action and deal with these invaders the old-fashioned way.
	No other order of knights is as hypocritical, excentric and zealous than the Teutonic Order. Granted, they served their purpose - the christianization of the Baltic tribes - with flying colors, if you ignore their failure in the Holy Land.\nHowever, they still continued their wars against Poland and Lithuania - two very much Catholic monarchies. Even the Pope himself tried to tame this order but with no success.\nIt is up to us to do what so many failed to: punish the Teutonic Order, and subjugate them to our will!
	Artillery is expensive and time-consuming to manufacture, and the European merchants seem to possess it in abundance. We should negotiate the purchase of arms for our nation.
	Despite our successes in internal and external matters, we must not forget to tend to the garden of our soul and erect proper places of worship that reflect our affluence and attention to the teachings through which we grew prosperous.

	We must bind our trading partners to us and ensure that they will protect us when threatened, providing us with the strength in numbers we will need to survive and prosper in a hostile and volatile Mediterranean.
	The Muslim conquest, as well as the following invasions of the Central Asian horsemen, brought nothing but destruction to Zoroastrian cities. Not even our holiest sites, those who once held the flame of Zoroaster himself, were spared. We must purify those holy sites at once.
	We have the opportunity to take over Constantinople, the city of world's desire, restoring the former glory of the Roman emperors.
	As our power increases, that of Mali starts to fade. It is the moment to get payback from the yoke under which our people have suffered for years. We shall attack Baghena, Manding and Massina.
	North America is rich with valuable resources. We should expand our colonies into the west and secure as much land as possible.
	North America is rich with valuable resources. We should expand our colonies into the west and secure as much land as possible.
	Our Explorers have opened up the vast untapped lands of Eastern Siberia. We must establish forts there to secure our control.
	The inland territories of India are renowned for their lucrative mines and rare jewels. Needless to say, the native inhabitants of the region would be much better off under our administration.
	Ruthenia is a vast region with farms and grasslands everywhere the eye can see. Lithuania conquered these lands from the hordes, and now it is our turn to conquer them.
	Our conquest of North Germany increased our power and influence in Middle Europe substantially, but the southern part of Germany is still eluding our might. It is time to push into South Germany and subjugate the fractured state there.
	Ever since the Hungarian King Sigmund led a force of Frankish crusaders against the Ottoman forces we have not been secure. Although Allah granted us victory that day, we must push further into the Balkans to ensure our lands are protected in the future.
	While the Ural mountains have been cleared of infidels, the steppes of Central Asia are still home to more savage hordes. For the safety of our faith and our people, we must push further into the steppes, conquer these hordes and bring them to the way of the Lord.
	Market accesses alone will not bring us wealth. No, if we want to truly profit from Africa's riches then we must push into its territory and seize them for ourselves!
	Unlike the dense jungles to the South, the lush plains of the Sahel to the North are a great source of wealth. Therefore, the only sensible choice we have is to expand northwards.
	Bulgaria has fallen under Ottoman rule. We must reverse their gains and push them back towards the Bosphorus, building up our empire in the Balkans in the process.
	Conquer the great city of Constantinople, and lay claim to the Balkans!
	The great city of Constantinople lies devastated and desecrated by the vile Turkish hordes. We, the champions of Christ and the bulwark of Christendom, shall march on Constantine's city and liberate it from the shackles of the heathen.
	The city-states of Tuscany and Emilia-Romagna lack strong leadership. We should... persuade them to let us provide it.
	The borders of the so-called Holy Roman Empire in the East are, at best, a laughable affair. They are neither secure, defensible nor manned by soldiers that can measure up to ours. It will fall and crumble before the might of the French army.
	Although we can find no signs of the kingdom of Prester John, we can strike a blow at the Moors by wrestling the spice trade into our hands. We must find the Indies so we can do our bit to defend Christendom.

	With growing availability of the coffee bean, the beverage has become world famous, many attributing to it positive effects on the body and mind. We should exploit our monopoly on this highly demanded resource.
	Since the days of Emir Mohammed ben Al-Ahmar, this towering palace has been the pinnacle of artisanal construction. His successors added numerous wonders to the grand complex; the Lion Court, the Court of the Myrtles, and the exquisite Hall of the Ambassadors. Should we continue in this tradition, we will enshrine ourselves as a center of art and culture for years to come.
	Qhapaq Ñan is the Royal Road that crosses from one end of the Andes to the other. Laid out with warehouses and traversed by messengers, it is a highly efficient and well-maintained network.
	No nation across every single market of Northern Europe holds more power, influence and coin than us. The time has come to centralize the Hanseatic League and embrace a new era of trade and diplomacy, as we head into the great unknown.
	Our illustrious and opulent city, the Queen of the Baltic League, is the true heart of our nation. We must renovate it to give it the splendor worthy of its status.
	Under the rule of Queen Tamar, our dominion expanded to encompass vast territories, including the lands of Armenia. However, it is disheartening to witness the subjugation of our fellow Christian brothers and sisters at the hands of the Turkmen forces who currently hold control. It is incumbent upon us to prioritize their liberation and reclaim these territories, reinstating Tbilisi's authority over them.
