The Plans of our nation

Having to share a border with a nation we have declared open rivalry and hostility against could lead people to be contemptuous, but the good citizens of our capital have managed to hide their contempt well.\n\nInstead, the local nobles have secretly started to draft plans of expansion into the lands of our enemy, plans that they believe might be put into action if our nation would only have a leader who thought of the nation's glory first and political games second. They have little respect for the efforts of republicans, but believe that the Prince might support their ambitions.
