I really need to stress how hard it would be to steal a battleship.
To be fair that's just the title of the article in i didn't feel like making the entire thing until I write the update butt basically the British are saying the crew mutinied and have decided to go pirate (thats not actually what happend thats just what the article will say)
Also here is an example for a destroyer design 1,000 tons 30 knots turbine engines 16,000 shp 3x 88mm or 3x 76.2mm 2x2 18 inch torpedo tube, and 4x 20mm anti aircraft guns

[X] Plan: Everything could be better
-[X] Standards in the workplace act: will see the implementation of a work day of 8 hours with businesses having to pay overtime pay for 1.5 times Regular pay. it bans child labor and puts in place a minimum of 14 vacation days paid and 8 sick days paid.
--[X] Immense lobbying(10 million costs,)
Results: The bill passed you don't know by how much but it passed and has now been implemented in your nation's law books.
-[X] an Internal investigation: you shall investigate your predecessor's actions and see just how much he embezzled. (2 months, 5 million)
Results you have started going down the rabbit hole that is your predecessor's corrupt dealings it will take you a bit to find out exactly what. (will finish in one month)
-[X] A rebel investigation: you shall investigate local rebels and figure out more about them. (3 months, 20 million)
Results: you have sent out men to investigate local rebels you won know how successful they are until the mission is over in 3 months.
-[X] Trans-Africa railway: you will build a railway between Mombasa, Dar Es Salem, and Wilhelmsville. it will be the first railway built in 14 years (9 months, 100 Million)
Results: you have started work on the railway connecting each side of your colony once completed it should significantly increase your GDP and Income once it finishes in 9 months.

(1month) (1 million)
Results you now know where you need to fix things with your divisions and what is good, and unlock multiple options on upgrades for your military.

also, Dar Es Salam will be your capital.
starting next turn you will be able to get people to design ships for you so if you want to take that I suggest figuring out what you will be asking for (the nations whose shipbuilders will respond to your request are Germany Th Netherlands and America ( for ships you can ask for stuff such as light cruisers armored cruisers destroyers submarines/U-boats transports or liners, or some new ships such as PT/Motor torpedo boats and motor gunboats. Another thing is one of your options next turn will allow you to get the Remmington model 8 a kinda predecessor to the BAR in that it's a semi-auto rifle that browning worked on. also what other weapons are you interested in for your military (next turn will be out sometime Tuesday or Wednesday and the pre dread battle after that)

note the reason that some actions already have an x is that they are taking up actions and must be included in any plans until they finish they are taking up actions (sorry if you thought otherwise) (so with 4 of your six actions used you only have 2 free ones to pick from)

Ok plan edited, how does it look?
decent since ill allow you to take the bill even tho it technically is more than the actions you have available
Also, note for the shipbuilders you should also Have a company that makes boilers and engines and perhaps a company that makes ships such as destroyers perhaps a yacht maker that started making military ships, and a company that makes cruisers and dreadnoughts. for the ship action
also for the gun actions some company suggestions to bring in are Krupp Rheinmetall Bofors and Skoda (as they make some artillery pieces that are even better than Krupp) (company from your homeland will naturally come over time but it may take years)
tho you don't need to do all of these as these actions are repeatable also if you can get a company that makes destroyers or small yachts you can participate in a design competition that will be taking place soon. as the Netherlands will be asking for designs of a destroyer soon (i won't tell you the requirement yet but it would be a good time for a company of yours to make a showing in the international market.)
(I have ended up deciding that from now on the bills don't take up your regular actions)

That seems like a lot all for 1 option
You would have 1 company that makes yatchs and torpedo boats and 1 that makes boilers, these are things that if you want to compete with the established powers also Note the prices for things today are most of the times 10 times more than back then so with the amount of money going into it you would have more than enough
(I agree that it's perhaps to much so I would probably leave the heavy ship manufacturer out until agter dreadnought) but establishing 4 company's and or investing in 4 company's with the amount of money you currently have is very feasible at the time. After all it costs 80 millions
