San François Xavier in the Far East
This is my first attempt at the EEP forum, and I really don't have much idea if something like this has been proposed, nor if it is possible at all.
San Francisco de Javier was a navarrese monk that was sent to India as missionary from Portugal, and he did an awesome work (arguable on some points, but notable). It has been said that he converted hundred of thousands to the catholicism...More reliable sources accept that he gave christian baptism to at least some 40000 people in India, Malacca and Japan.
In the game he's curiously represented as a portuguese conquistador
)?) named Francois-Xavier
What I wonder is if sending a missionary is one of the possible commands in any given event.
[EDIT: gosh, just checked Havard's excellent site and seen that there's no "send missionary" command...San Francisco out
]
If so, there could be a series of "sending missionary for free" events for Portugal, with the condition of Francois-Xavier (as he's named in the game) being alive, and Portugal knowing these provinces:
Goa
Cochin
Kerala
Malacca
Kyushu
For example: If Francois-Xavier is alive AND Goa is known to Portugal, Portugal can send a free missionary to Goa, etc (and identhical events for Cochin, Kerala, Malacca and Kyushu)
It is very unlikely that these missionaries will succeed, but if they would be? In Japan the Jesuites achieved some success, and in the end some turmoil
If sending a missionary is one of the possible commands in any event, I think this will make for some "flavored" portuguese events (and some surprises for some far eastern countries)
