I declare Bavaria the winner.
Part I - Stability and Growth
It is the year of our Lord 1399. King Ernst I has been sitting on the throne for two years. Average in Administration and Military skills he has good Diplomatic skills and the Bavarian people have high hopes for the future.
If we are to consolidate our position and reunify the Bavarian people then improving our poor stability and low prestige are paramount.
The improvement of our international relations are also important particularly with Bohemia and Austria to our east.
As a start we have decided to Centralise our nation and open an embassy with the current HRE Bohemia. We then hired Clemens August Dulac, an excellent High Judge whom we hope will make Revolts less likely. No other available advisor was of any use to us at this time.
Our people's first wish was to enter into a Royal Marriage with the Hapsburgs of Austria who accepted. Our stability increased as a result.
We recieved three alliance proposals from Baden, Thuringia and Aquileia and accepted all.
Royal marriages with Bohemia, Ansbach and Thuringia were sought and accepted. Wurttemburg however declined the offer. We hope they have the sense to accept in the future.
Our people declared a new wish: To liberate the Bavarian population living in Franken from the rule of The Palatinate. This will take some time and it would be best to wait till Václav IV of Bohemia dies as the ruler of Cleves is likely to become the new HRE and would be easier to force into peace.
