Hello! What with the advent of common sense, I've enjoyed playing small and tall recently. Was sad to see that the Mediterranean's largest island has no ideas of its own.
Sicilian Traditions:
+10% Trade Efficiency //Natural trading location
+25% Naval Force Limit //Island nation!
A New Destiny:
In 1409 the death of our beloved Martin I caused the line of the Sicilian royal house to fail and our lands were directly integrated into Kingdom of Aragon. Let a new King preserve our rights and lead us to a new destiny!
+0.5 Legitimacy
+25% Chance of new heir
National Awakening:
For too long have our people been subject to the designs and thoughts of others. The list is long and indeed illustrious - Roman, Vandal, Byzantine, Islamic, Norman, Hohenstaufen and Catalan peoples have called themselves our masters. Let us learn from their mistakes, stand on their shoulders and write our own bold history.
-10% Idea Cost
Contest the Gulf of Gabes:
The foul Barbary pirates threaten not only our trade, but our security, reputation and sovereignty. Let our sailors know their duty not only to the king and to his subjects, but to wider Christendom as a whole.
+15% Morale of Navies
Export Market:
The 16th century was the golden age for Sicily's wheat exports. Inflation, rapid population growth, and international markets brought economic and social changes. The expansion of the aristocracy in the 16th and 17th centuries only increased exports further.
+ X Goods Produced //don't know about balancing this.
Sicilian Baroque:
Sicily suffered a ferocious outbreak of the Black Death in 1656, followed by a damaging earthquake in the east of the island in 1693, all the whilst being raided by the Barbary corsairs. The subsequent rebuilding created the distinctive architectural style known as Sicilian Baroque.
+1 Yearly Prestige
Any Port in a Storm:
Throughout Christendom's struggles against the Turk and the Barbary pirates many kings and knights have taken supplies and rest at Palermo. This has gained us many diplomatic contacts and a reputation for good Christian hospitality.
+1 Diplomatic Reputation
Jewel of the Mediterranean:
Our island home is the largest of its kind within the Mediterranean and it should have status and grandeur befitting of that. Let Palermo shine like a beacon against the surrounding darkness! Let the Syracusian walls be rebuilt anew! Let the ports of Messina be awash with wealth!
-10% Development Cost
Ambition
20% Galley Combat Ability
My first idea set but surely not my last
