OOC - Here is the ordre du jour we could use during Council Sessions. Suggestions are of course accepted. From this point, we can begin to discuss -In Character-
1. Finances*
1.1. Monthly investments (research and maintenance)
1.2. Extraordinary revenues and expenses
1.2.1. Expenses (Buildings, army recruiting, merchants, diplomatical bribe -gift, Papacy - etc)
1.2.2. Revenues (Loan, war taxes)
* Since hiring advisor imply both monthly and extraordinary spending, they can be discussed as a whole.
2. Government (no financial implication) aka Interior
2.1. National and provincial decisions
2.2. Government sliders
2.3. Religious decisions
3. Foreign Diplomacy (both peace and wartime)
4. Army
4.1. Units preferences
4.2. Leaders recruitment
As you may have seen, some topics are present many times (diplomatic bribe in finances and diplomacy, army recruiting, army preferences etc). I did that so when discussing diplomacy or army warfare later on, that provisions would already made for possible diplomatic or war expenses. Anyway, this is more a memory helper than a strict agenda. So feel free to go here and there if you think it would explain your point better.
