This time, since the UK starts as the most powerful country in the world, I will be giving you a choice between multiple challenges, some harder than others. Choose the one that you find the most interesting. You will have 2 weeks to complete this challenge
Option 1: World Conquest
Simple scoring: Owning every province in the world is 100 points, and you get points proportional to the number of provinces you gain (i.e., no free points for starting with the largest empire)
Option 2: Ending Slavery
The only goal here is to free every slave in the entire world. If you achieve this, you get 100 points. Otherwise, you get points equal to the percentage of the 1836 slave population that have been freed
Option 3: The Anti-imperialistic British Empire
Your goal is to have as many independent(i.e., not vassals) nations as possible. You will get 1 point for each extra country there is after you've finished the challenge than there is in 1836
Option 4: Island Nation
Your goal here is to conquer every single island in the world, where an island is any landmass smaller than Australia. Your score will be proportional to the number of island provinces you conquer(that you did not own in 1836), with 100 points for conquering every island.
Option 5: The Historical British Empire
Your goal here is to conquer all the territory that England or Britain ever controlled, plus some other historical conditions.
