—description from the back of the box (AH version)

The game is quasi-historical in nature, providing the atmosphere and mechanics of the 16th Century world, along with historical personages. The object of the game is for one Country to accumulate as much wealth, land, and prestige (in the form of actual discoveries) as he [sic] can; the Country with the greatest total of all three is the victor."
