	The fort of our nation is perhaps our biggest obstacle to raiding the rest of Russia. Let us seize it by force.
	The fort of our nation is perhaps our biggest obstacle to raiding the rest of Russia. Let us seize it by force.
	Wool supplies are scarce in Mesoamerica. The Tepic people have an abundance of them, but they are not willing to trade with us. If they do not wish to profit through peace, then we shall show them what the alternative is.
	Sins are everywhere! Nobody can live a pious life these days without committing a sin by accident.\nFortunately, the Lord is merciful, and allows Catholics forgiveness for their sins for the low price of indulgences. We, the servants of the Lord, shall take benefit from it, either by selling these indulgences to the monarchies of Europe or by taking the money from those that do.
	The Compagnie della Calza, thriving in the enchanting ambiance of Venice, draws its name from distinctive hosiery worn by members. Established in the mid-15th century, they organize lavish feasts, captivating games, and renowned spectacles for the Venetian nobility. These associations, with names inspired by virtues or guilds, distinguish themselves through stocking hues and embroidered initials. Grand events, including masked processions, boat races, and theatrical productions, unfold amidst the splendor of Venice. Notably, the Festa della Sensa celebrates the city's union with the sea, featuring intricate rituals in the presence of foreign ambassadors and dignitaries.
	The history of dynasties past, as well as the story of ours, has always been dictated by ebbs and flows. Periods of growth, decadence, destruction and rebirth are all part of life. However, that should not be interpreted as that we cannot do our very best when it comes to ensuring the growth and government of our dynasty.
	There has always been a lack of separation in the Aztec society. Nobles and peasants could dress all the same, and they could have the same houses, with the only difference being their titles. We must create a clear division between the nobles and the commoners to further increase our control on society.
	We must show our devotion to Jagannath, Lord of the Universe, by patronizing his temples and ensuring that his Brahmin servitors have all they need to perform the devotional rites.
	Our shipbuilders have devised a plan for a new type of heavily armored warship. Taking inspiration from the strong plating on the sides and a covered roof to protect the crew from missile fire, they are calling it the turtle ship, or 'geobukseon'. The fearsome appearance of this new warship and the strength of its defenses will ensure that the naval superiority Korea requires to be defensible is never lost!
	Our explorations have revealed the existence of an island of unimaginable size. Although it is not the southern continent we hoped to find, it is still land which should become our claim.
	The lands at the far south-east of the known world have been given a name curiously similar to that of our own nation. It is clear that they were meant to be ours.

	The lands of America seem suitable for many things. In the north we have heard talk of furs and shipbuilding materials. In the South the land looks suitable for growing many crops. We must establish bases there so we can profit.

	Only a few explorers have ventured south from the Ivory Coast, and fewer still have returned. Even so, the riches we have gathered from our exploits in Africa have been astounding. If we send enough men, some are certain to survive.

	Rumors tell of rich sources of gold and other valuable metals in the regions of California and Rio Grande. We must settle these regions and investigate these rumors.
	We have heard tales that the Spice islands lie somewhere to the east. Already daring men are ready to voyage there, all they need is some support from the crown.

	The colonial era has truly begun. We should take advantage of our proximity to the American coast by establishing colonies further North.
	The Americas produce many lucrative goods which we would be foolish to ignore. It's vital that we establish a presence in the north, where we could perhaps engage in the beaver fur trade and seek some sort of accommodation with the natives.
	For many winters, our people have been moving around, but no more. We have to settle the land for the glory of our people.
	The New World is full with resources and goods which are completely foreign to us. It would be wise if we establish settlements in this New World and exploit these resources as soon as possible.
	The northern provinces of Gyeongseong and Yukjin are recent conquests from the Manchurian tribes. We must enlighten these territories by introducing Korean customs and practices.
	Inhospitable. Freezing. Deadly. The words used to describe the far North are many and varied, but we; we will master this land.
	While we have found fur in quantity in Alaska, our explorers report the discovery of gold reserves on the west coast of this alien continent.
	The distance between our lands and the lands in Europe makes it challenging for us to administrate it properly. By perhaps splitting up the land into different governors, all answering to us, we can more effectively utilize the riches of Europe.
	The Steppes are filled with foreigners, which are unreliable for bringing profit to our realm. Settling some of our people there to create cities would help fix that problem.
	Each of the seven fires represents one of our clans: their aflame agitation never bent by water, but aroused by the wind. We must ensure that we give each of them a place to keep that flame growing.
	At long last, Persia is under one single, unifying banner. The aftermath of the Mongol and Timurid reigns still hangs over our lands like a shadow. The country is in dire need of reconstruction. We should accumulate the necessary resources to start the Persian Renaissance.
	Eranshahr, the land of the Aryans, the heart of the ancient Persian empires, beckons us. In its rich tapestry of history, great empires have risen and fallen, each leaving their imprint on its shifting sands. We have worked tirelessly to restore its former glory and now stand on the cusp of embracing a grand destiny. Our people, culture, and economy thrive once more, echoing the magnificence of the past. Our duty is to step forward and claim the mantle of the 'Shahanshahs', the Kings of Kings, the legitimate rulers of a resurgent Iran. In doing so, we not only validate our reign but also revive a lineage of rulership that resonates with the heartbeat of Eranshahr.

	Our religion is based on cultural exchange and tribal diplomacy. We should gather allies and subjects to improve our ability to maintain the relations between the different cults.
	Our beliefs are strong amongst our people, but we think that only worshipping is not enough. Our shamans are eager to teach the foreigners about the cult that makes us stronger.
	At long last, France has accepted defeat and recognizes the our ruler of our nation as their only acceptable sovereign. While the French commoner kneels before their true our ruler, the French nobility refuses to acknowledge us. As we have more than enough in our hands with the English nobility, the French nobles must swiftly be dealt with.
	The rise of the Ottoman Empire has dramatically shifted the balance of power in Anatolia. They have spread their dominion far and wide, establishing a hegemony that has stifled the growth and independence of many nations, including our own. However, every empire has its twilight, and the time has come to challenge the Ottomans and shatter Osman's legacy.

	The word of Christ must be spread to the four corners of the world. Heretics and heathens alike must be converted to the true faith, or else they will surely be damned for eternity.
	Since the time of the Prophet Muhammad - peace be upon him - Islam has been blessed with many strong teachers and leaders. We should add our own dynasty to this list of great protectors.
	Our influence in the Levant has grown to unprecedented levels. For the first time in centuries we are able to proclaim the restoration of Outremer, the shining star of our faith in the Levant.
	A balance of power is all very well, but if we can shift it in our favor, we will be well on our way to claiming our rightful position as the preeminent state in all of Europe.

	Living on islands makes us dependent of ships. While our traditions revolve around shipbuilding, we have to create a proper base for further expansion.
	Our people are renowned shipbuilders and seafarers. There is no sea we will not go to in order to conquer or trade. By constructing a new fleet, we will be able to fulfill such ambitions.
	We have a long and proud tradition of shipbuilding but over time it has become clear that we have not matched the innovation of some western designs. Let us invest in our shipbuilding industry and create ships that emulate what these westerners do well, while keeping the good craftsmanships and materials of our ancestors.
	No-one knew what we would find on this journey of exploration, but one thing is clear: it is not yet over. We must lay claim to sheltered natural harbors, where our fleets can resupply.

	Although our merchants influence ends at the ports of India, the lands of South East Asia have always been influenced by Islamic traders. Should we sail there and seize their trade routes, we can extend our reach even further into Asia.
