Mission	Completion requirements	Effects	Prerequisites
United and Strong Bavaria The Duchy of Bavaria has been divided since the middle of the 14th century, when the sons of Ludwig IV, and later those of Stephan II, decided to formally split their inheritance. However, a divided Bavaria is weak and vulnerable to depredations of its stronger neighbors. We must unify our ancestral lands if we are to stand the test of time!	The country: Is Bavaria Has an army at least 100% of its total force limit All owned provinces have less than 1 local unrest	Bavaria gains permanent claims on the following provinces: Oberpfalz Salzburg Regensburg Bavaria gets "Bavaria Reunited" for 20 years, giving the following effects: +100% Prestige from land battles -15% Core-creation cost
Expand Bavaria Even a united Bavaria cannot stand against Austria or Bohemia on its own. We must expand our core territories and bring our weaker neighbors under our rule.	Bavaria owns at least 10 provinces At least one the following provinces is owned by Bavaria or its non-tributary subjects: Oberpfalz Salzburg Regensburg	If Bavaria and The Palatinate are independent Christian monarchies: Bavaria gains "Restoration of Union" Casus Belli on The Palatinate for 25 years. Else, Bavaria gains permanent claims on the following: Palatinate area all further provinces owned by The Palatinate Bavaria gains permanent claims on the following areas: Lower Franconia Upper Franconia	United and Strong Bavaria

At least 6 provinces in the following areas are owned by Bavaria or its non-tributary subjects: West Swabia East Swabia	Bavaria: Gains 100 administrative power Gains permanent claim on the following area: Baden	Conquer Franconia
Unite the Wittelsbachs The divisions of the House of Wittelsbach reach far beyond the borders of Bavaria. A branch of the Wittelsbach family has long been established in the Rhenish and Upper Palatinates, acquiring for itself the status of Elector, a position which the Bavarian Wittelsbachs are clearly more worthy of. It would only be right to reunite the families and - with a bit of persuasion to secure the Emperor's agreement - claim the Electorate for ourselves.	One of the following muse be true: The Palatinate is the lesser partner in a personal union with Bavaria The following provinces are owned by Bavaria or its non-tributary subjects: Heidelberg (77) Oberpfalz (1757) Pfalz (1761) Zweibrücken (4767)	If: Limited to: Bavaria is part of the Holy Roman Empire Bavaria is not an elector The Palatinate is an elector The Palatinate is the lesser partner in a personal union with Bavaria The Holy Roman Empire religion is either not locked or is our religion The Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire gets the "Transfer the Palatine Electorate to Bavaria?" event Else, Bavaria: Gains 10 prestige Gains 10 legitimacy Gains 10 devotion Gains 5 republican tradition All owned provinces in the Palatinate area get "Efficient Integration" for 20 years, giving the following effects: -0.05 monthly autonomy change	Expand Bavaria

Province Köln (85): Is owned by Bavaria or its non-tributary subjects Is owned by a country in our religion group	If Bavaria and Brandenburg are independent Christian monarchies: Bavaria gains "Restoration of Union" Casus Belli on Brandenburg for 25 years. Else, Bavaria gains permanent claims on the following areas: Mittlemark Neumark If: Limited to: Cologne is a theocracy Cologne is an elector Cologne is in the same religion group than us Cologne is our subject Bavaria is a monarchy Bavaria can have heir Bavaria gets "The Cologne Secundogeniture" event Else, Bavaria: Gains 10 prestige Gains 10 legitimacy Gains 10 devotion Gains 5 republican tradition	Unite the Wittelsbachs
Tame Brandenburg Brandenburg is another of the territories once held by the Wittelsbach family.

Else, Bavaria gains permanent claims on the following areas: Austria Proper Inner Austria	Unite the Wittelsbachs
Union with Austria The upstart Habsburgs have built themselves a large territorial empire in Austria, a region which once belonged to the Dukes of Bavaria. Even though this was many centuries ago, many Bavarians have never fully contented themselves with living in Austria's shadow, and would gladly take the chance to turn the tables on them, should the opportunity arise.	All provinces in the following areas are owned by Bavaria or its non-tributary subjects: Austria Proper Inner Austria	Bavaria gains 20 prestige Bavaria gains permanent claims on the following areas: Frisia Holland South Brabant North Brabant Venetia Cariniola	Claim Tirol
Bavarian Netherlands Bavaria has an admittedly distant claim to various territories in the Netherlands. It seems only right, now that we have restored Bavarian power to much of our former glory, to revive these claims and reestablish our control over this prosperous region.	At least 12 provinces in the following areas are owned by Bavaria or its non-tributary subjects: Frisia Holland South Brabant North Brabant	Bavaria gets "Bavarian Netherlands" for 20 years, giving the following effects: +15% Trade efficiency +15% Trade steering	Union with Austria Sway Cologne
