Here are some achivements mostly inspired by Germany

One Up On Widukind - Defeat France in a 1-1 war as Saxony

The German Way of War - As a united Germany, be at war with five Greater Powers at the same time

Daughters of the Eagle - Full suffrage for a united Germany and before anyone else

The stein before the sword - Unify Germany as Bavaria

Oktoberfest All Year Long - As Bavaria have your entire population on top happiness (however we might measure that in Victoria 3) for an entire year oktober month to oktober month

If I didn't, someone else would - Sell military equipment to a value of 100 000 "money" to the aggressive side in a war

When the World went Mad - After unifying Germany, conduct no aggressive wars and never demand any concessions in a peace (must play as a united Germany for at least 20 years)

Please let there be no "achievements". One of the most annoying things about EU IV is all the whininess about how every little balance decision easily modifiable in the files becomes subject to the need to be "official" because otherwise it gets in the way of achievements. Leave all that for EU and CK games and just leave That Spreadsheet Game alone.

I feel like CANZUK would be a better name this

Commonwealth of Nations is more historical and more actuate. As the Commonwealth of Nations is basically a loose network of countries these days. CANZUK is more of a movement to political unite Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the UK into one country.

Please let there be no "achievements". One of the most annoying things about EU IV is all the whininess about how every little balance decision easily modifiable in the files becomes subject to the need to be "official" because otherwise it gets in the way of achievements. Leave all that for EU and CK games and just leave That Spreadsheet Game alone.

I agree with the above statement. Ideally there shouldn't be achievements; however, at them same time, I know there will be achievements. So that saying here are my suggestions:

Cape to Cairo (Rhodes' Road?): As a civilized/recognized country own and control an unbroken line of provinces (or states), with at least one level of railroads, from the Cape to Cairo. [Based on the vision of Cecil Rhodes]

The Pink Map: As Portugal own all provinces/states that were claimed under the Pink Map [Based upon the Pink Map which was Portugal's African Lands to connect their African Colonies]

Chinese Sentinels: As a non-Chinese Great Power, own both Port Arthur and Weihaiwei [Based upon this Punch Comic]

Please do not add Steam achievements. Or if you do, permit us to gain them however we like to play, mods and console and save-scumming permitted.
I don't know why people dislike achievements so much.
I never even bother to go for them in any of the games and I still enjoy having them there.
They provide a good goal if you are bored.
