This was a very well written AAR, and I very much look forward to whatever you write next.
It is only fitting that the last ruler is a Selbar!

Absolutely loved the description of the Princess-Regent Kelzang. Such a vivid description! Really inspires me to pick up the figurative pen 
Love the turn of phrase!
Really hope so! As mentioned before, your Tibet seems a fascinating place, and I'd be curious to see how it continues, if its rulers would carry on the liberalism and tolerance of the past, or if the religious differences would ever flare into outright war, let alone seeing how Tibet would deal with encroaching imperialist powers.Still, perhaps I'll write a sequel someday.
And everything was right at the roof of the world.
Hoping to see your next work soon!

As ever, glad I could be able to follow another one of your AARs from start to finish I do hope we eventually return to Selbar IX's story, even if only as an epilogue, but I'll certainly be keeping an eye out for whatever comes down the pipeline, in this tale or the next.

And so the journey ends. And what a journey it has been! Truly a joy to read.
I had to smile at this, what an image!
His was an arid faith, blessed as he was with a mind so narrow it was a miracle he could don a hat.
I love this phrase!
A very fitting conclusion to another @RossN masterclass in historybook
Certainly with Federations now is a good time to consider matters among the heavens.

Congratulations on completion and thank you kindly for the top-tier entertainment! This was truly an impressive work. You really brought the Kingdom in the Clouds to life!
a great AAR, but as all things it had to come to an end. thanks a lot for this beautiful reading experience! looking forward to new AARs.
Thank you everyone for your kind words.
Normally in an AAR I would do an Epilogue post, but since I might return to this at some future point (in EU IV) I won't make any in-universe predictions. Still if anyone wants anything clarified or just wants to discuss anything I'm happy to oblige!

I see from the recent posts you have just finished this AAR, but I haven’t looked ahead in any detail as I work my way forward. Now up to chapter 29 so not too far off. Hope you don’t mind me still offering comments along the way.
And the further trouble hinted at ...
I love these little gems you throw into the story.
Very impressive!
Damned (literally) Devil worshippers!
And the further trouble hinted at ... Wow! My game experience is extremely limited (like, the one game I’m playing and writing up in my own CK2 AAR), though I’ve read a fair few AARs, but that seems pretty huge to me.
A few days late reading the final post , but I must say this was an(other) excellent AAR, very enjoyable and as exceptionally written as ever, and it was fascinating to learn much about a region I previously knew very little of. Onward to the next one!

Not at all! I'm glad you are enjoying this!

Yes, I know the risks of making a monarch a general but it felt out of character to have him stay at home!
Damned (literally) Devil worshippers!
Well... they would probably refute the term Devil worshippers, but who cares what heretics think?
That's true it is very large. Fortunately by this time the Tibetan Empire was itself large and a great deal of wealth was flowing into the treasury thanks to the Silk Road and the Tea-Horse Road. Having a standing army not only felt appropriate it also allowed the Tsenpo to act against revolts and barbarian incursions (almost as common as the ones you experience in your Rome AAR!)

Thank you and I'm delighted you enjoyed it!
It really was a lot of fun playing, writing and learning about Tibet. Like you i knew very little of the region before I started but it really was a fascinating crossroads of Central Asia.
I know I'm late to the party, but I want to say thank you for this amazing AAR.

Finally got around to reading this AAR to the end. It's been a heck of a ride, and it's really nice to see a strong Tibet able to serve as a regional power in its own right. Well done on this one!
If you ever decide to continue this into EU IV, I'll be along for the ride, even if I don't comment as much as I used to.
