The Strategic Decision after Target Explorer's Journey

Although it is undeniable that we are the center of the world, and anything outside our borders is not really worthy of our attention, knowledge of those far-away places is nonetheless useful. As such, we have had Target Explorer bring us information about such places, and he/she is conducting explorations for us.
However, many at Court Title argue that it is not worthy of the Country to worry about barbarian lands, while others have the opposite opinion and suggest that we should instead further direct our gaze outwards, as they foresee many benefits from it.

21historical_info = flavor_chi.1.historical_info In the 14th century, China's relations with the outside world began to change. Under the Yuán Dynasty, China had made contact with the West by reopening the old silk routes and bringing Muslim, Christian, and Jewish traders into China. The expulsion of the Mongols in 1367 and the seizure of power by the Míng reversed the processes that were tying China more strongly to the outside. Following the seven expeditions (1405-1433) of admiral Zhèng Hé, who sailed the imperial fleet into the Indian Ocean and to the coast of Africa, China folded in on itself and closed off its external connections.
