	The Lao kingdom has long been a thorn in our side. It is time that we removed that thorn.
	The Duchy of Lorraine is strategically placed on the frontier between the Empire and France. In case there is future conflict between France and the Empire we would be wise to make the dukes see France as their master.

	Our rule on Sulawesi has collapsed entirely, and we must rectify that. The Makassar Kingdom in particular has grown too powerful for our liking.
	The branch of the House of Trastámara that rules over the Kingdom of Navarra has begun to show signs of weakness and internal strife. We must settle their disputes by bringing Pamplona firmly under our rule.
	The Norwegians have long wanted to be rid of Hanseatic influences. We should not oblige them this wish. Instead, we should make ourselves their masters!
	Pahang is the last remaining Buddhist kingdom on the Malay Peninsula, and an easy target for our expansion. We will subjugate their kingdom and install a loyal prince to govern it.
	Prussia used to be a land inhabited by the Old Prussians, a Baltic people, which had the misfortune to be the target of the Teutonic Knights. While the Old Prussians are history, the "New" Prussians established rich trade cities and marvelous fortifications in these lands. It would be beneficial if we take over Prussia, and annex them for the glory of our our nation.
	Rajputana, a land of petty Rajput princes, is not rich but it is dangerous to our long term goals. Here Rajput clans have an unwavering powerbase, unwilling to bow to any conqueror.\nIf we are to keep our possessions safe we must subjugate the entirety of Rajputana, making them all loyal to our governor in Ajmer.
	The Principality of Ryazan no longer see the heirs of Genghis Khan as their overlords. They must be reminded not only through fire and sword but through the rapid expansion of our nation.
	Gujarat was once a Rajput kingdom, and in Saurashtra their traditions live on. A myriad of kingdoms now populate the entire peninsula, housing raiders who would disrupt our trade as well as kings who would gladly reconquer the central parts of our state.\nWe must subjugate the entire peninsula, and take the mighty Girnar fort for ourselves to watch over them.
	Edward I, Scottorum Malleus, saw the wisdom of securing our kingdom by subjugating the Scots. We must do the same.
	The Serbian state once came begging for protection when the Ottoman Empire threatened their borders. We consider that plea for guidance to still be valid. Bring them into the fold.
	Siam would rule an empire spanning all of Asia if they could. We cannot allow them to achieve this hegemony, for that is our own destiny.
	The petty Sultans of Sumatra are disunited and unready for a true war. We should strike before they manage to unify.
	The Turkish Beyliks of Anatolia have paid us tribute in the past and acknowledged our overlordship. Now they have delusions of independence despite the mighty Ottoman Sultan breathing down their necks. It is time to reassert our power in Anatolia.

	The Crimean Tatars have been allowed to rampage on the Steppes for too long, it is time for the Third Rome to show them who is boss.

	The highland tribes evade the rule of any state. We must introduce them to civilization.
	We must push ever further into the steppe. The Kazakhs must be made to join our Horde as we march eastward.
	With Lan Xang fragmented, we are in a position to subjugate the smaller Lao kingdoms, making them vassals of our nation.
	The Livonian Order is the Teutonic successor to the Livonian Brothers of the Sword, an old order of knights which have been reduced to a pathetic small group of wounded knights after the Battle of Schaulen in 1236. Technically a subject to the Teutonic Order, the Livonian Order is an autonomous state, and as they see themselves as the new Brothers of the Sword, it is clear that they are supposed to be our subject once again.
	Even Gajah Mada never dreamed that Majapahit might one day dominate the Thai and Khmer realms. We will expand the empire to heights never before imagined.
	To accomplish our imperial goals we will need to build an army; the Eastern Mongols are skilled warriors, and would complement our Bannermen perfectly. They are unlikely, however, to submit to our rule without a display of force.
	The Princes of the Romanian realms rule relatively poor land which are in the spheres of Hungarian and Polish influence. We cannot allow these territories to fall into the hands of our enemies. The Romanian lands must become part of our growing empire.
	It was clearly a mistake to allow the so-called Golden Horde to rule autonomously. With their Khanate shattered, it is up to us to reunite the Tatars and bring them back into the fold.
	The lords of Dai Viet consider themselves safe behind their mountains and under the protection of the Chinese Emperor. We shall show them that their pretensions are false.
	Ulug Ulus, meaning 'Great State', is the name given to the Golden Horde. It has however fallen, split between many Tatar tribes who wish to claim its mantle. We are the ones who will restore this legacy of gold.
	Our land is a rich land, with plenty of resources for our people, we just need to collect them and see our people grow in numbers.
	In most realms in the West, and especially in and around the Holy Cities, the Sufi institutions are treated with disregard. In the Timurid east, the Sufis form an integral component of society and even further east, in India, they are a great driving force behind conversions.
	We must continue our campaign westward, making forays into Syria and Anatolia. We cannot allow the Turks to defy our rule!

	The sultanates in Zanzibar have seen a decline as of recent. Their overseas power dwindling, and stuck in a state of constant unrest. Perhaps if we decide to style ourselves as Sultans of the land, we can further press our claims.
	With a foothold in Siak, we can begin a campaign of subjugation against the remaining Sumatran Sultans.
	The invaders have fled from our lands. But is that enough? At any time they might return with even more terrible force. Let us pursue them back to Europe itself.

	While our peasants and lower class dream of a future without Danish influence, the higher class is more reluctant to follow the call of liberty. After all, the Danish king granted many privileges to our estates, which make them fairly loyal to the Danish cause. Fortunately, the greed of the estates does not know loyalty. If we grant them more privileges than the Danish kings have in the past, then there is a chance that they support us.
	We tamed the Orthodox heresy in the East, but there are many more heretics in Europe who threaten the authority of the church. As the knightly order of the east, it is our duty to help our brethren who are at the mercy of the heretics and the heathens at their borders.
	The grain of the Baltic has traditionally been shipped west by our merchants, but there's still so many opportunities there for us to take advantage of. If we were to expand our presence in the Baltic markets, we could earn enough money to start thinking about funding an expedition to find even more places to do business.

	Led by the esteemed Dalai Lama, the Gelug school of Vajrayana Buddhism is becoming a powerful force in Tibet. We must gain their favor.
	Religious division within the Holy Roman Empire has led to the creation of two religious leagues, Catholic and Protestant. Therefore, it is foreseeable that sooner or later a war driven by religious differences will break out. We must support our fellow Catholics in the struggle that lies ahead, so that the true faith may triumph.
	Merchants are the backbone of the towns and cities of our country. They constantly demand support in their trading activities, but that can be to our benefit as we can profit by encouraging trade deals in our lands and ensuring their loyalty.
	The Holy Orders of Europe all fight a pious war, but they are isolated and poorly-supported even by their Catholic neighbors. We should remind them - including the Orders residing in our own realm - that we recognize their struggle, and fully support them in their missions.
	As our financial institutions develop, we need to start dedicating some of our resources towards allowing our traders to have the best deals.
	Silk-weaving has a relatively long history in Byzantium. With the smuggling of silkworms in sixth century, the art of sericulture has persisted for a millennium and various guilds of weavers have formed in larger cities. Let us support them and provide them with markets for their goods.
	Though the Saophas of the Shan Mongs at least nominally accept our rule, they will be an ever-present danger unless we break their power completely.
	The waters between us and the English king are ripe for business and profit. We must secure an undisputed monopoly and reap the benefits.
