Bah. Why go out of my way all the waaaaaaaaaaay over the Ocean there's a massacre to be had when everyone else sends their forces across the sea?
Africa, lots to grab, and the lucrative trades.
Caribbean, islands are easy to defend, and have pirates.
Indian Subcontinent, I want to compete with the major trade companies.
North America, New France, 13 Colonies, get out of my way.
Split my forces. Small footholds all over, I don't like to focus.
Forget Colonization I'm attacking my nextdoor nieghboors first thing.
Gah!

It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.
