	The Mayans in the Highlands have always been more peripheral to the rest of the Maya world in the Lowlands. Their highly defensible homeland though has allowed them to resist the encroachment of the northern Maya and later on, allowed them to resist Spaniards for more than a century.
	The land strip that separates the Red and Mediterranean seas has brought forth the idea of an engineering endeavor, suggested by our advisors. By connecting the two seas we would surely improve the flow of our navies across them.
	Many of our kinsmen have risen to prominence among the Gond Kingdoms. Now that we have proven our right to rule over them all it is only natural that we extend our rule to the hills and jungles of the east.
	We find ourselves in a time of rapid transition and uncertainty. We must establish centers of Hindu education so that we might simultaneously adapt to a world in flux while holding true to our faith and traditions.
	Constant wars of conquest have drained our military dry. We need new men to replace our lost veterans, and in order to do that, we shall tap into the near limitless population that we have that favors us thanks to our tolerant policies.
	Although we our people are proud of our state and defend it to the last man, we are still just an island state. We need professional soldiers to defend us from the Scandinavian threat. We need competent mercenaries!
	The weak Spanish continue to insist on an unenlightened existence away from our benevolent rule. We must reach out, and help them flourish under the enlightened guidance of Italy.

	Hogans are our traditional houses. We use them as a home, but also as a ceremonial place, and thus they must be very well protected. Building some fortified hogans in our capital will surely help our defensive efforts.
	Our colonial empire will not be complete until it includes substantial holdings in India and the East Indies.

	Mecca, the most holy city upon this earth, lies within our grasp. Taking control of this vital place will give us the respect and admiration of our brethren the world over, of this we are sure.
	The Holy People taught us the boundaries of life. We were given a beautiful land, but greed is never merciful, and we must resist the temptation of expansion. These four mountains shall be our nation's first borders.
	The Holy People created the sun, the moon, the seasons, the stars, this clear water, that tumultuous sea. We shall properly honor them as a sign of gratitude.
	The Germanic Holy Roman Empire has tarnished the name of the Romans. For centuries they claimed they had the audacity to claim the mantle of Rome. Let us punish them for their trespasses and end this unholy Germanic delusion.
	The Holy Roman Empire; a testimony to a once great empire which now has its power distributed amongst the electors and princes. As our ambition lies in Europe, it is only natural that a struggle between the Angevin our nation and the Holy Roman Empire emerges.
	Since centuries ago, the presence of Iberian Cardinals in the Holy See is regular. It would be a good idea to increase their network and influence in Papal politics, as this could be very beneficial for our Catholic Kings.
	The newly reunited Empire must demonstrate its devotion to the Faith. We must announce to the world that we shall defend the our religion religion at any cost.

	Our people are at their strongest when bound together, working alongside our fellow citizens to further the agenda and cause of our great Emperor. Instead of debasing ourselves by reaching out to foreigners, we must embolden our focus on domestic production lines.
	By erecting a totem pole to remember our ancestors and their deeds, we are showing respect.
	Situated in an ideal position at the entrance of the Persian Gulf, our nation will be incredibly vital towards furthering our mercantile agenda and our trade share in the region.
	Our explorers have at last reached the other side of the Gulf of Aden, where so much spice and other valuables are imported to the Mediterranean. This area must be charted and exploited if we are to bring this wealth to Portugal.

	Horses have revolutionized our ways of life. We need to adapt and embrace the new us.
	Our Cavalry is most infamous. Wherever we shall send them, destruction and fear follow in their wake. Let us continue building this reputation and make sure we can achieve victories with fear alone.
	our nation is home to some of Catholicism's most celebrated architectural achievements. The city, which has been blessed with many of history's most celebrated personalities, will soon kneel in the face of French superiority.
	Knowledge is a gift of the divine granted to the humble man. Medicine, mathematics, physics - these are all schools of thought we should embrace and promote. We shall build universities so more of our people can earn the gift of knowledge.
	The battle for dominance over the Ohio fur trade cannot be won through military force alone. We must establish a trading relationship with the Native Americans living in the region to secure the interests of the French treasury.
	The Huey Teocalli, a monumental pyramid in the heart of the Aztec capital, Tenochtitlan, was a testament to the architectural prowess of the civilization. Built in the 15th century, this grand temple served as the primary religious center, dedicated to the worship of multiple deities, including Huitzilopochtli and Tlaloc.
	Austria abuses the imperial throne and makes no secret of its plans to subjugate our nation. We must show the Princes of Germany, and the world, that Austria is not the mighty behemoth it pretends to be.
	The Austrians have long been a thorn in our side, and continue to pretend they are better than us. They even have had the gall to proclaim themselves 'Roman' emperors! It is time we showed them that we are not to be trifled with.

	In the year 1426, King Eric established the Sound Toll which was one of the main sources of Danish income. Every non-Danish ship which traversed the Öresund had to pay us.\nUnfortunately, the Hanseatic League had no interest in Danish prosperity, and embargoed the entire Kalmar Union. Eventually, in 1426, their audacity led to an open war between Denmark and the Hansaetic League. To our humiliation, these good-for-nothing merchants won the war in 1435, and enforced liberation from the toll.\nWe should repay our humiliation to the Hansa by either conquering the city of Lübeck, or overtaking their grip over the Lübeck trade node.
	Many Stories are of great battles between titans, but we are unworthy of sharing these legendary battles in the Dreamtime if we do not exemplify their heroism in ourselves!
	The Duke of Provence pretends to be the rightful ruler of both Aragon and Naples. His pretensions should not go unpunished.

	With the death of Wladyslaw III, Poland and Hungary ended their personal union and went their separate ways. It is time to renew our claim to the Hungarian throne.
	The conflict between the various Husstie factions and those loyal to the Church of Rome has reached an uneasy settlement. Uncertainty in the line of succession is once again creating tensions between the religious factions. We must resolve the matter of succession and take a firm stance on the issue of religious orthodoxy.
	Despite, or perhaps due to the death of Jan Hus in 1415, proponents of the Hussite movement have harbored bitter resentment towards us for many years. Conflicts have come to a head once again, and it is only a matter of time before we must make a choice on behalf of our people.

	Food and water are the most important thing for the survival of a population, and that in turn is the basis of any country. We must develop and expand our irrigation infrastructure to be able to control and increase both.
	Ibadat Khana or "House of Worship" is an establishment created to let all religions of the realm discuss the matters of the faith. Brought together into one room, theologians of all religions ponder various philosophical aspects of our lives.

	We may not share a lot in common with the Iberian nations, but if there is one thing that can unite us, it is the French. Our hatred for them may be enough to convince them to place a our dynasty on their throne.
	In Southern Europe lies the land of Iberia. A region split by culture and religion, it is nonetheless valuable if we want to conduct raids in the Mediterranean.

Due to our trade relations with the Europeans, merchants were able to experience the engineering of the European first hand.
