	The beacon of Slavic unity, Great Moravia, once shone brightly. It's about time we reignite its flame and unite all Slavs, standing as the only and true successors to the legacy of Rostislav and Svatopluk.
	We were driven out of China by the rebellious Ming, and lost the Mandate of Heaven. We must reforge the empire of Kublai Khan and take back the Mandate!
	New uses for coal are being discovered that could revolutionize the face of industry throughout the world. We should reform our mining laws so that we can start producing coal at peak efficiency.
	The system of governance promoted by our dynasty is one that has seen little renovation across the recent ages. To that end, we must ascertain a proper way to administrate the waves of subjects under our banner and appropriately mitigate the maluses that accompany corruption and administrative overextension.

	We need to change our traditions to suit the national interest. Though the resistance might be harsh and could cause secession of our tributaries, we need to proceed decidedly.
	Our cities have rarely strong fortification, and only our border provinces have received additional support for defenses. While it is true that our maintenance cost for our defenses is lower through this policy, it is clear that we become an easy picking once invaders breach our frontiers. We must rethink our strategy and renovate the defenses of Persia.
	Religion is a central part of our culture, but it is also the root of many of our problems. The answer, obviously, is not to get rid of it, but to reform it instead.
	There are many strange and uncertain practices within our religion that need changes. We ought to exploit the divine authority and amend them.
	We must take up new ways and reform our administration into a modern our nation if it is to survive the changes sweeping across Europe.
	Although the usage of firearms and guns is sneaking into our military it is still far away from being common for our troops. Most of our soldiers still rely on spears and bows while the Maghrebi and the Europeans mastered firearms. If we want to not be overrun by our northern neighbors we need to reform the army and modernize their weapons.
	Discipline is what separates an army from a mob. We must ensure that our soldiers are well-trained, well-equipped, and above all well-disciplined.
	Our military has shown that it is outdated. We are still using tactics of the medieval Western Europe, which are hardly applicable to the terrain of Eastern Europe. We must reform it!
	New uses for coal are being discovered that could revolutionize the face of industry throughout the world. We should reform our mining laws so that we can start producing coal at peak efficiency.
	Corruption was rife during the final years of the Ming dynasty. The Qing Censorate must be the eyes and ears of the Emperor, seeking out corruption throughout China and exposing dishonest officials.
	Our neighbors all around us have developed special systems, laws and policies to rule their country. Their governments are specialized for their needs, and as such they are prepared for whatever challenges they might face.\nOur our nation is still a young one compared to the rest of Europe. We are an unwritten page waiting for our destiny.
	Our old tribal traditions have become too small for our great ambitions. We must reform our government into a glorious state if we are to stand among the giants of the world.
	If we are to take on the injustices of Europe's most powerful houses, we will need the army to go with it. Thus, we should look into reforming our armed forces and improve their combat efficiency.
	As realized by Mehmed II, if our empire is to grow, we must build a large and modern army. Only with a strong standing army, salaried and with modern weapons, can we hope to re-impose order and Ottoman rule over Anatolia.
	League of Mayapan used to rule much of Northern Yucatan and its influence permeated far beyond that. Let us use our newfound power to subdue all of the Maya peoples under our rule.
	The legal system of France was, for the most part, very fluid and archaic both in terms of its design as well as its implementation. In order to further solidify our grasp on the throne, we must ascertain that our legal system operates at peak efficiency.
	According to the oral legends of our people, our realm was founded by the first Mwene, the warrior prince Nyatsimba Mutota. He established the first steps for a mighty army.\nWe cannot rest on the success of one Mwene in the past though. Instead we should improve the troops even further to achieve security for the our nation.
	Our military has been known to be pioneers in military innovativeness, and is feared for its quality in combat. However, our military system is always under the threat of corrupt advisors and generals, who consider more important to fill their own pockets instead of expanding our forces. If this ever happens then our nation could be threatened even by petty kingdoms such as Denmark.\nWe must ensure an absolute rule within our country in order to neutralize the internal threat, and reform our government as well as our military.
	Our military, though rather powerful, has begun succumbing to the decadence prevailing within the Elites of our society. Influential as they are they will see themselves fall to their own arrogance sooner or later.
	Finance is the lifeblood our of country, and the state itself relies on a communal funded debt, the Monte. Scrupulous laws are necessary for citizens to maintain trust in the fund, but occasionally standards have loosened, and finances may have gotten questionable. The only way to restore trust in the Monte is to prove that the debt's funds can be called on, and show that the fund has the backing we say it has.
	Dom Henrique, Duke of Viseu, the uncle of king Afonso V, is best known for promoting Portugal's exploration efforts in West Africa and reforming its Navy, sponsoring a new type of ship, the caravel.
	The ecclesiastical laws which guide our clergy are old, and rely on ancient traditions which no longer make sense in our modern times. Clarifying the basic tenets of our faith and providing guidance for our priests will help bring our people and our church closer together.
	Though previously harmful to our economy, perhaps the soyurghal institution could be molded into something else that will not be abused and will profit us in the long run.
	Our laws and government must reflect the character of our nation. A series of reforms shall be passed that will transform the state into a well-oiled mechanism of rule.

	While Theme System functions, it is woefully outdated to modern needs. We need to reform it to better suit the future - an age of gunpowder and standing armies.
	After the difficult times that have affected the country, we need a strong Treasury for our new enterprises. We also have to reform our monetary system, and we will need the advice and approval of the burghers to succeed.
	The Emperor Sigismund, former King of Bohemia, planned a great reform of the Holy Roman Emperor. We should continue his legacy, and set the Empire on a new and glorious path.

	As a tribal confederacy, our people have fought more among themselves than against those that opposed us, and therefore we have kept too old-fashioned laws everywhere that drain the efficiency of the state. We shall change it!
	Traditionally, our country is an elected monarchy, where the nobles choose a monarch to rule over Sweden. This method of getting a king on the throne has proven to be flawed though when the Swedish nobles agreed to Queen Margaret's suggestion of the Kalmar Union in 1397. It is time to reform the government into a centralized monarchy which is not dependent on the whims of the Nobility.
	For centuries, our nation has been a subject of foreign powers. If we are to restore the might of Great Moravia, we must break the chains of our oppressors and regain our independence.
	The territories lost by the Empire over the course of the loss of Imperial influence over the region must be returned under our jurisdiction.
	The more we embrace pomp and luxury, the more the other rulers of Europe do the same. We cannot let others outpace us when it comes to the magnificence of our rulers and the glory of our nation.
	The regents are a particular class of provincial patricians, the leaders of city councils and the wise men who fill the ranks of national committees. Among themselves, there are flashes of partisanship, driven by dynastic ambitions, personal grievances, and rarely some genuine ideological differences. Since these people are our chief administrators and responsible for the governance of our cities, it is in the government's interest to lessen the tensions between regents. One of the more straightforward solutions is to encourage contracts between regents, where they agree to alternate control of a political office between them. That way, even if one family doesn't like another family in power, they know that their turn in power will come soon if they just wait.
	As we strive to excel in maritime matters, we have to instill pride and discipline in the marines that are onboard our most legendary vessels.
	The Harem is a powerful political entity within our realm. Originally intended to secure a guarantee heir, the concubines and eunuchs of the harem have expanded their influence far beyond of what any slave should be capable of.\nIf the authority of the Sultan shall not be jeopardized then the harem needs to be regulated.
	To prevent another age of chaos, we must make sure that everyone knows their place in society. Samurai must remain samurai, merchants must remain merchants, peasants must remain peasants, and nobody gets any funny ideas to the contrary.
	The states in Southern Greece could act as stepping-stones for the infidels to lead a crusade against us. We must secure our southern flank to ensure that the true leader of Islam prospers.
	The many houses of Italy as well as the Pope himself squabble for dominance in Italy. None of these fools are aware that their beloved boot is within the Angevin sphere of influence. We should kindly remind them of their place.
	The Reign of Women is the name of a period of our history where the Harem was particularly influential in the governmental and political decision makings of the sultans. Some conservative members of society see this as a tragic disaster while others see great opportunity. What direction the reign will take is open-ended...
	Brunei once loyally submitted to Majapahit before they defied us and forged their own empire. We must bring them to their knees once more.
	The influence of France has been deeply felt in Iberian politics for centuries, either as an ally or as an enemy. We have a choice to make to either befriend them and secure a key new alliance or rival and neutralize them as a threat to our future.
