Novgorodian 2 UHV / The Fur Trade

"Control Eleven sources for fur by 1397AD"

I'm really struggling with this one playing as Novgorod. I can't find enough fur sources in Karelia / Northern Russia. Giving up on my game I opened the World Editor. If I didn't miscount, there's only 11 eleven sources of fur in the whole game (including Scandinavia). Am I supposed to conquer Scandinavia as Novgorod?

Is this possibly a mistake that slipped through and should be "Control seven sources of fur" as that's what you can realistically control if you expand into Karelia and Northern Russia?

Anyone got a good advice for me?

Try checking with the resource bubbles display? There's at least 12 easily accessible fur sources for Novgorod (3 in Novgorod, 3 in Karelia, 2 in Osterland, 1 in Vologda, 1 in Livonia, 1 in Smolensk, 1 in Moscow), all but one of which are non-foreign areas.

Thanks for the help! I probably made a mistake counting them. I'll try again and pay extra attention on the sources.
