	Due to internal struggles, the Dalmatian provinces of the Hungarian crown were sold to Venice in 1409. We cannot let these rich cities which are key to our domination of the Adriatic remain in the hands of our foes. Now that we have recovered our strength and consolidated our rule over Croatia, the time has come to recover Dalmatia for ourselves.
	The recovery of the Aegean Islands will secure the coasts of Anatolia.
	Ages ago, Egypt was the heart of the Ayyubid Empire. Without its control, we will never restore the glory that once was. The region must be reclaimed, no matter the cost.
	The Hussite Wars have devastated the lands of the Bohemian crown. Before we once again concentrate on external affairs, we must see to the restoration of internal order.
	The Empire is but a shadow of itself after repeated blows from the Turk. For us to rise, phoenix like, from the ashes we must recover the Greek lands.
	The coast of Hispania represents the limit of our ambitions in the west.
	The next step in our recovery should be to recapture Jerusalem!
	The ports of Chaul and Dabhol are vital to our continued existence as a state. Without ready access to the sea we will be unable to keep importing the steeds our cavalry needs, horses we are unable to breed ourselves in the South Indian climate.
	Complete the restoration of Italy to the Empire!
	Magna Graecia, the territories settled by Greek Colonies in ancient times, have long been lost to the decline of our Empire. With competent leadership and a powerful navy, it is time to retake those territories and reinstate Roman government in the southern tip of Italy.
	The realm of Great Moravia, the predecessor to Bohemia, once extended far beyond the lands of the Czechs. We should seek to expand our borders once again, beginning with the annexation of the old Principality of Nitra.
	With Rome restored to the Empire we can now move northwards!
	Samoa was the first center of the Polynesian Triangle before Tonga rose. Pretty much every island in the Pacific Ocean has been colonized from our beautiful islands. We have to recover that glory.
	Trebizond once possessed vast overseas territories called the Perateia. As we are slowly rebuilding our nation from the ruin, the reclamation of Perateia colonies should be our utmost priority.
	The Kingdom of the Spains belongs to us. This includes our erstwhile neighbor, Portugal. Strip them of title, and return sovereignty to our nation.

	The preceding century has been a tumultuous period for Georgia, characterized by immense suffering and a gradual decline. We find ourselves transformed into a feeble nation, isolated politically, and besieged by adversaries from every direction. If we are to endure and thrive in this ever-changing world, we should embark on a journey to reclaim our strength and forge alliances. By revitalizing our influence and fostering strategic partnerships, we can navigate the challenges ahead and secure a prosperous future for our beloved homeland.
	Over the course of time, the Empire has lost many of its territory to foreign hands - most of that was most likely our own doing.\nNonetheless, if we want to expand our influence into the Germanic lands then we have to recover these provinces once again.
	As long as the lands of Asia Minor are held by the enemy we will never be secure. By seizing the coastal provinces we will have the buffer we need.
	The lands beyond the Oxus River have, on many occasions, been attacked and pillaged by the Shaybanids in the north, trying to carve out a piece of this territory for themselves. Let us reconquer that territory and expand it further.

	Tunis, once the site of the great enemy of the Romans: Carthage, represents our westernmost ambitions in Africa
	Control of Corsica and Sardinia will secure the Italian coast, while the Baleares will serve as a springboard to the shores of Hispania.

	Regiments of Streltsy are the backbone of our army. We must continue to recruit and provision the Streltsy to uphold our military traditions.
	The have become a significant political entity within our nation. However, their position has little worth to us if they cannot back it up with their presence on the battlefield. We should remember the Turkoman where their position is actually needed.
	Our recent victory over the Chanka has left them as powerless subjects of our ruler. As our servants, they need to start paying the labor tax, including military servitude.
	The Cossacks of Zaporizhia are fierce fighters. If we could control this region of the steppe, they could be convinced to bolster our armies.
	The Mamluks are some of the most formidable warriors there are. We must recruit some of them to increase the power of our own army. That will allow us to conquer our enemies more easily.
	The glory of combat and the history of our nation is built upon the shoulders of strong slave soldiers. If we are to reverse the decay that has gripped our nation, our first step would be to bolster our Mamluk ranks...
	The Marathas have become an influential force in India in recent years, their armies having gained a reputation for effectiveness and ferocity. Integrating their heartland into our empire would surely force them to consider entering our service. We might also consider offering the throne itself to a Maratha general...
	While our people are fierce and strong warriors in their own right, they are still our - people of our our nation. We should consider recruiting the wild tribes and clans of the south in order to avoid losses of our own people.
	Regiments of Streltsy are the backbone of our army. We must continue to recruit and provision the Streltsy to uphold our military traditions.
	The Red Government makes the decisions in times of war. Our war counselors, war speakers and great warriors take part in it, as well as our ruler. It is their duty to lead us toward victory.
	Tirol, as the Germans call it, is a great Alpine territory, one that has served as a crossroads and a bastion for many great empires, including the Romans. Some of our people still live among those mountains, particularly in the south. If we secured those lands, we would be bringing more Italians into the fold and giving ourselves a great defensive line in the north.

	In the hills between Gujarat and the Malwa plateau lies the ancient and seemingly impregnable fortress of Champaner. This fort must become ours so that it can become our first line of defense as well as a base for future conquests.
	We have recovered from the brink of destruction and now there are those that are calling for the reestablishment of the old imperial administrative division of the Theme.

	The Battle of Varna was a crucial victory for us, but its aftermath can still be felt. The casualties our troops suffered were heavy and many of our ortas - the battalions of our great armies - are incomplete and lack new soldiers. We should build up our army and recover our losses so we can continue with our expansions once again.
	Machines of war, armed with impressive amounts of gunpowder, march on in the battlefield. Their thundering roar will tear down our enemies' walls and deliver our nation to victory!
	The Caroleans are the backbone of our army. Their discipline and courage has brought us many victories on the battlefield.\nBut they have one flaw: they require recruits whose hearts are as unbreakable as our steel itself - and such soldiers are hard to find. We should reform the recruitment process and refine the training so we can field more Caroleans reliably.
	Wars are certainly very tragic for the people. However, they also introduce a regime change and shifts in geopolitics around us. In that spirit, we stand to profit greatly by establishing a rudimentary system of paid mercenaries to protect our people.
	The key to a refined and deadly army is constant drills and exercises. By revising our manuals and training courses, we will attain the perfection of a powerful force at land.
	The Nakharar system, a time-honored institution that forms the backbone of our society, needs refinement to meet the evolving needs of our growing nation. Our Nakharars, the noble lords, must be more than mere landlords; they need to become the pillars of a strong, centralized state that supports the common good alongside their personal interests.
	The Tercios system has been a great success since its implementation. However, new styles of warfare have been developed to defeat them on the battlefield, so a reform in their organization is needed to keep them as unbeatable as they are considered to be.
	Having reconquered the lands that once belonged to Great Moravia, it is high time we officially declare its full restoration!
