How does this work mechanically since China is an off-map entity?

You can declare war on China via their diplomacy screen, and they'll send in a Mongol-level invasion to gently caress you up. If you beat them, your dynasty gets the Chinese throne, among other goodies.

The sorry state of Tibet's army requires rejuvenated leadership! Aristocratic!

Lord Cyrahzax
Oct 11, 2012

It is clear that Tibet has forgotten the ancient lesson of leadership imparted by our glorious late empresses and emperors- to restore that, we must make ourselves a beacon, hone our leaders until those that rule are truly the best.

Aristocratic Ideas

Aristocratic Court


And the court wishes to know what rumors there are of the great empires of the new world?

Delhi now suffers for abandoning the rightful emperor in his hour of need! The gods, in their justice, have seen fit to topple this traitor and open the door to the restoration of legitimate Purgyal rule. Who are we to reject the gifts of the gods? The time will never be more right- we must restore the influence of Lhasa to the south, step by step.

C-Restore order!

How many times must we do away with these delusions, these lies? The False Tse continues to fool the gullible and be used as a tool by rebels and traitors to Tibet! The True Tse would know what to do with these liars- as she did when she founded our Sacred Hierarchy, they would be put to sword and torch, and in her name and in the name of the gods, we must not falter! Death to every Restorationist, to their corrupted princes, to their hierophants, to their rabble-rousers, and their sympathizers! We can not allow them to hide anywhere in our Empire or beyond!

In the name of the True Tse, deny these lies!

Surely some of the old Taoist mysteries can be maintained, redefined and pondered further? Certainly would never condone a return to the, uh, falsehoods of the old Hierarchy, but a pinch of the unknown can do much to light the fire of the soul.

Other institutions, I believe, it might be best to let pass away. Surely our glorious empress is the very fulfillment of her divine office! Who could replace her? Once she is gone, will the office not again fall into the corruption that saw the reborn Tse slain? We cannot allow it! A Republic of the Virtues of True Bon is the way forward.

The Heavenly Republic was founded as an answer to a simple but serious question- what is Tibet to do when no worthy sovereign occupies the throne in Lhasa? For generations, we provided that answer, allowing the gods to choose the leader we needed. But now...but now Gesar Lasya has provided something far more definitive, achieving for Tibet victories and miracles we thought were lost forever. In a trial of fire and war, we now have an Empress who has proven to stand above and beyond even the greatest of the Purgyals! The republican regency is over- we at last have a ruler worthy of Tibet, of China, and of far beyond.
