So, our choices are between the heir of an extremely powerful dynasty, a powerful and experienced general, or an isolated political novice who lacks legitimacy in her own right. As a representative of the Tibetan aristocracy who loathes the notion of someone being more powerful than himself, the choice is obvious: C.

There is time to groom and teach this young candidate the finer points of rule and management and make them a capable ruler in their own right. There is time, not matter how short to show them the proper path. This is a time to rest and settles ones spirits after a period of hard exertion. There must be balance and in this period, A is ideal for the leader for this period.

Gesar Lasya has shown that the true reincarnation of Gyalyum can come from anywhere, that blood matters not for greatness. However, the Purgyals have been a steady tiller at the hand for centuries. Therefore, we must return them to be stewards until She returns to us once more. A.

zealouscub posted:Usual Japan and not-California update along with what that Orang/Tan blob in the East Coast and Western Europe is.  The hegemony of the Taira has taken a blow from which it may never recover. Its territories have been reduced from nearly all of the Japanese home islands to a small strip of land stretching from Kiyosu in the south, to the far province of Echigo in the north. There are also its remaining 'possessions' in Siberia, but these are remote and perhaps beyond any contact. At its expense, the other major clans have established their regional territories: the Utsunomiya in the east; the Tsutsui in the center of the country, with control over old Kyoto; and the Sō in the west. The latter, often decried as 'pirates' by the various Chinese states to the west, have control over a broad maritime state stretching from the home islands in the north to ports in Taiwan and northern Luzon. Also of note are the independent Ainu. While still paying tribute to the Utsunomiya domain, they have regained a measure of independence over domestic affairs.  This part of Ixachitlan has remained relatively stable. The Séliš kingdm in the north, Niukonska exclaves near Úytaahkoo and the En-'ne-sen towns; and the Dine in the broad river valley, and finally the Iréchecua Tzintzuntzáni, under Hiquinaje IV, all the way down to the coastal Mixteca valleys.  Finally, the theocratic empire of the Tsalagihi Ayeli is one of the world's great colonial empires. Its control over the many natural ports of the eastern coast has given their empire a springboard to hold many transoceanic territories.  This part of the continent of Yorop (as the Tibetans call it) has become a palimpsest of empires: the Triple Alliance, the Norse, Hualanitstlan, and finally the Tsalagihi Ayeli. They have heard of the rumors of riches and fertile farms; and of the threat of cannibalism. They are now the most recent polity to have any claim to control over this place, and they are surrounded by Ayitian rebels who call for the end of the sultanate and call for a 'Jamahuriya, and Lotharingians and Germans to their east. Current Vote Total: A - The Purgyal: 10 (Chatrapati, Alikchi, Akratic Method, RagnarokZ, habeasdorkus, Lynneth, Jeoh, frankenfreak, Xelkelvos, Soup du Jour) B - The General: 2 (Lord Cyrahzax, ThatBasqueGuy) C - The Favourite: 15 (Technowolf, Videowitch, NewMars, Tulip, Pacho, Snipee, zealouscub, AJ_Impy, Polgas, SirPhoebos, Albino Squirrel, QuoProQuid, megane, TinTower, TheDavies)

Tulip posted:Is that Taira collapse a sustained phenomena or is it a civil war that might resolve soon? Mechanically, it looks like the shogun mechanics have been disabled, so there are just 'Princedoms' and a 'Pirate Confederacy', as well as the Ikko-Ikki movement. The 'Unite Japan' decision is still available, so the Taira could make a comeback, it's harder to do at this point and this late in the game. kw0134 posted:What that a thematic choice, or is that because you're China, thus you get the EU4 China Experience™ including its janky court mechanics? Sorry I missed this one earlier. A little of both. Mechanically, with the annexation of Canton province, the 'Seize the Mandate of Heaven' CB was available. In the narrative sense, unanimous voting for military expansion might go to a republican leader's head.

Easy solution: make the position of elected leader of the Republic and Emperor the same. When the term of office is over, they also "abdicate" as Emperor. The spiritual "son of heaven" aspect of being Emperor of China could complicate things but nothing a few decades of propaganda can't fix. E: alternate solution, China/Heavenly Republic is now a constitutional monarchy Moon Slayer fucked around with this message at 04:57 on Feb 17, 2021 |

I suggested painting a big red line down the middle of the empire and letting them each run half of it. The throne’s pretty wide, you know, they can just sort of squeeze in there together. e: Also they have to share an apartment and solve crime
