	Goal	Key
	Our bid to join the Empire has been quite succesful, and we have even been able to become an Imperial Elector. Now the time has come to raise the stakes even higher,and bid for the title of Holy Roman Emperor.
	As the shield of our faith, it is our sacred duty to protect the true teaching from those who seek to corrupt it. We must take a harsh stance against the heresies spreading throughout the Empire and make the Holy Roman Empire holy again!
	A Reformation is sweeping across Europe, and our history of unorthodoxy places us at the forefront of the theological and political conflict. We must take a stand for the true faith and introduce our heretical enemies to a window!
	The Catholic attempts to stop us from revealing the true teachings to the masses have been in vain. As Hussite faith reigns supreme, the time has come for us to officially claim the Imperial mantle and turn the Holy Roman Empire into a true Hussite Empire!
	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.
	Although the radical Hussites have been destroyed during the Hussite Wars, many pockets of their resistance still plague the lands of the Bohemian crown. We must take a harsh stance against them and get rid of their heretical teachings, or else we risk another bloodshed in the future.
	We have already proven our capability to fight against the heresies that threaten Christendom. Let us officially assume the title of our faith's protectors, so that we shall stand proudly as the champions of the cross.
	Religion is a pillar of any civilized empire. Naturally, it is an aspect we have to take into consideration, and this with absolute care and thought. The religious fate of the Middle East may lay in our hands, and as such requires skilled experts of religious matters.
	Few topics are as divisive as the matters of belief and the treatment of heathens and heretics. Not only does this stance affect our population, which seems to grow with every successful conquest.\nWe should hold a theological debate and get the opinion of both the and the.
	State, army, trade and diplomacy are subjects to change and evolution, and culture is no exception to it. We shall embrace and promote the ideas of the Renaissance.
	The Rhineland is a highly contested region as many different Great Powers which want to expand into Germany seek the subjugation of it. Better these lands are ruled by us than become the territory of a foreign power.
	With our connections in Russia solidified, we are now able to press our claim to the throne. Although our aristocracy may help us with that, we still need to placate the people...
	Our rivals are many and powerful, but also arrogant. They assume they can compete with us on the sea, contest our claim in foreign lands and pose a threat to us.\nWe must show them how fatally wrong they are.
	The city of our nation has been the heart of China, being the home of innumerable amounts of our people within our realm. The increasing size of the populace yearns for an extension to the plans of the city, thus enlarging the living space within the urban domain.

	The Oromo have always been a thorn in our side. We should get rid of them once and for all.
	The Mamluk Sultanate, a realm molded by the hands of former slaves, has grown into a formidable adversary. Their dominance in Egypt and the Levant poses a looming threat to our ambitions in the region. Yet, every empire has its weaknesses, and the Mamluks are no exception. The time has come to strategize, to use our resources wisely, and to deal a crippling blow to the Mamluk power structure.

	The fortifications around the mountains in the Korean region are blocking access to immeasurable loot and the glory of conquest. Securing passage further south is an important stepping stone towards wealth and the joys of conquest.
	Muhammad bin Baysonqor has been continuously stronger over time. With his actions in Isfahan, it is certain that he is nothing but a traitor. We must show him no mercy.
	There is no reason that we should not exceed the bounds of the old empire, setting our sights beyond the shore and towards the riches of Borneo.
	We should use our trading posts in Africa as a staging ground for expanding our reach to the Far East. The wealth of China awaits us!

	We will never be able to rise above our old enemy, Venice, unless we can defeat their formidable fleet. However, should we be able to assert our naval superiority, this will open the path to the conquest of the city. We must build up our navy to ensure that this becomes reality.
	The Turks seem to be the most powerful nation in the entire Islamic world, but they should be aware of the fact that their era of domination is about to abruptly end. The Ayyubid armies shall march into Anatolia and bring this region under the rule of the eagle.
	The Turkmen of Qara Qoyunlu have been a thorn in our side for far too long. Their oppressive rule, their blatant disregard for our faith and heritage, their constant threats to our sovereignty, all this has caused immense suffering. It is time for us to end their reign of tyranny. By overthrowing the Turkmen, we will be safeguarding our future and making a strong statement to the world: that we will never bow to tyranny and that the Armenian spirit is indomitable.
	There are a few spots blessed by the gods as places were trade happens naturally. We must grab them, no matter what so we can dominate trade.
	We have rights to the city of Erfurt. It is time to enforce these rights and make sure that the city truly is ours.
	The land of five rivers has been home to powerful Afghan landholders ever since the original conquest by Mahmud of Gazni, hundreds of years ago. These local strongmen are in many ways an obstacle to our newborn empire and if we are to last we must use a firm hand to show that they are now expected to obey our law.

	During the reign of Stefan Dusan, Albania submitted to our court. After Dusan's death, however, the empire he built began to crumble, and the Albanians claimed independence. It is time we reassert our old rights, and reclaim Albania for ourselves.
	The nomadic Bedouins of Syria and Arabia are a constant nuisance. They raid our lands almost seasonally and recent Sultans have done little to stop them. They must be brought to heel.
	The tribes of the southern desert have been a constant hindrance to the coastal Sultanates. They must be pacified so that we can turn our attention elsewhere.
	The people of Ezochi are a thorn in our side, operating as a base for brigands who come south to hound our peaceful subjects. We must extend our benevolent rule north to this wild land, and ensure that the people there learn the benefits of our ways.
	To better understand our past and our tradition it is important to learn how the heathens act. We should gather pagan allies or subjects and study their behavior.
	Painting rocks is a dear art to our people. Our connection to the land is bonded to it, so in order to strengthen this bond, we should paint the land once more.
	The Gavras dynasty's connections to the Russian lands have proven to be beneficial for us. Now, our rulers sit atop the throne at the Kremlin, masters of the land of the Rus. All that is left is to crown ourselves Tsars...
	Sulawesi is named after its rich iron deposits. It would be foolish for us not to exploit these resources by building a weapons manufactory.
	Since the Thirteenth Century, our Order has been the bastion of the Catholic faith in the Eastern Baltic. However, after the Western Schism, our relationship with the Papacy has fallen apart and the defeats of the last few decades have put us in a difficult position. We need to recover our relationship with the Holy See, as we may need their backing in the years to come.
	Our our nation is far away from the authority of the Pope, and as such it is difficult to influence the Curia. We should establish an embassy in Riga for the Papal State which can both provide a reliable way to communicate with the Papal States and serve as the seat of our own cardinal.
	Avignon has always been a thorn in our southeastern border. Despite our best efforts, it has always eluded our jurisdiction, instead pertaining its allegiance to the Papal States. We must decide on our approach in this delicate matter, assuming the Holy Father holds authority over Christendom.
	The Pope has long sought to interfere in the affairs of Germany and France. However, he may have overreached - resentment towards the Papal establishment is growing in many quarters. It will not do to have an ambiguous stance. We must either commit ourselves to being good Catholics and supporters of the Pope, or seek a clean split from him and all he stands for.
	One of the most important records that the Mogollon culture has left to us is Paquime, a large settlement involving dozens of buildings. We should take advantage of their architectural experience and adjust this village to serve our own purposes.
	Poland is a weak state led by weak rulers. The relevant countries of the world, and our own nation foremost, should carve up their territory at the first opportunity.

	The Governing Senate means little to nothing to the state if it is not put to good use. We should let the issues of the Russian citizens run through it and let them be handled by the Senate.
	The many dynasties before our time rarely sought to expand outside the borders of our domain. However, we must not imitate for the sake of imitation and instead choose our own path of expansion, best tailored to our dynasty's needs and ambitions!
