I think AGCEEP have nifty events for some basic coutries. Seems Papl States should have had the least change from all of them. Their goals are set soo far in the past and so far in the future that likely they would continue doing whatever they were doing for quite a while. So here are some good events from AGCEEP that could be adopted
========================================
##The Vinland Map
event = {
id = 251017
random = no
country = PAP
name = "The Vinland Map"
desc = "The Vinland Map is a 15th century map of the world. It is believed to have been commissioned circa 1440 to support the Council of Basel. Its captions tell of the Carpini mission carrying the Faith to Tartary in the Northeast, Bishop Eric Gnupsson visiting Vinland in the Northwest, Prester John established in the Southeast, and even Saint Brendan in the Antilles in the Southwest. The importance of the map is that it depicts a body of land across the Atlantic called Vinilanda Insula (Island of Vinland). In modern times the map was first found in 1957. Its current owner is Yale University. Two scientific conferences, in 1966 and 1996, were held to debate the map's authenticity, but no final determination could be made. If authentic it would be the oldest map of North America ever found."
style = 1
date = { day = 1 month = january year = 1440 }
offset = 30
deathdate = { day = 30 month = december year = 1449 }
(This is also posted in Vinland thread)

#One historic and one unlikely reaction to Luther
event = {
id = 251013
random = no
country = PAP
name = "Bull of excommunication: Exsurge Domine"
desc = "The condemnation of the ideas of Luther was not a hasty decision.
His Ninety-five Theses had been made known the 31 october of 1517 and judged
some weeks later as heretical by German theologians. It became a very
public controversy. One year later, Luther had the support of many German
princes and Rome began to worry. All these ideas of reform were becoming
more and more radical. Luther got as far as to appeal the Emperor to
destroy the power of the pope. The 15 july of 1520, after careful scrutiny
of his writings, Rome formally condemned forty-one propositions of Luther
and summoned him to recant. It did no good, of course, but at the time there
was already no space for a compromise. If the pope had tried for such a
compromise, it would have mean more trouble in Italy than peace in Germany."
style = 1
date = { day = 15 month = july year = 1520 }
action_a = {
name = "Let's condemn"
command = { type = CASH value = 100 }
}
action_b = {
name = "Try to compromise"
command = { type = STABILITY value = -2 }
command = { type = DOMESTIC which = INNOVATIVE value = 2 }
command = { type = DOMESTIC which = CENTRALIZATION value = -1 }
command = { type = CASH value = -50 }
}
}
=======================================
#Chinese Rites
event = {
id = 251012
trigger = {
exists = CHI
}
random = no
country = PAP
name = "The Question of the Chinese Rites"
desc = "On several occasions since 1645, the Jesuit missionaries in China
were criticized because they were letting their converts worship their
ancestors. The Jesuits explained that it was only a courtesy and an act of
filial piety that was facilitating the acceptation of the Christianity in
the very traditional Chinese society. In 1704, Rome forbad for good this practice,
bringing about the expulsion of all missionaries and the persecution of the Chinese converts."
style = 1
date = { day = 15 month = may year = 1704 }
action_a = {
name = "Ancestor worship is heresy"
command = { type = RELATION which = CHI value = -10 }
command = { type = DOMESTIC which = INNOVATIVE value = -1 }
}
action_b = {
name = "Ancestor worship is filial piety"
command = { type = STABILITY value = -1 }
command = { type = DOMESTIC which = INNOVATIVE value = 1 }
command = { type = SLEEPEVENT which = 10036 } #CHI: expulsion of the jesuits in 1722
}
}
this could be revorked in such a way as to have all the missionarries move into one of the more advanced chinese states
=======================
#The Soul of the American Indians
event = {
id = 251011
random = no
country = PAP
name = "Papal Bull: Sublimis Deus"
desc = "Following a long theological dispute, the pope Paul III decreed
that the Americans indian possessed souls and that their lives and
proprieties should be protected. That encouraged the creation of new missionnary
orders, and was completely ignored by the rich conquerors of the New-World."
style = 1
date = { day = 5 month = september year = 1537 }
action_a = {
name = "They have souls"
command = { type = RELATION which = CAS value = -10 }
command = { type = RELATION which = POR value = -10 }
command = { type = RELATION which = SPA value = -10 }
command = { type = MISSIONARIES value = 1 }
}
action_b = {
name = "They don't"
command = { type = VP value = -10 }
}
}
Eire, Genoa, Norway, Brittany all coudl be substituted into here.
Maya and Iroquois reaction and also the reaction of the iberians that culd be missionaries in the new world could be possible outcomes

Same with Genoans, they are a republic after all.
