The master of dynastic inheritance finds himself outwited by the assassins, and this is his answer? Quite remenicent of OTL Pope trying to ban crossbows :p

Assassins are useful for arranging inheritances, as well as preventing them, you know. The number of options goes up quite dramatically if you look at semisalic counts and dukes with exactly one son, as opposed to considering only those with no sons. I haven't tried many of those because my dynasty is not yet so large that there is a lack of sonless targets. In the long run I would probably be more hindered than helped by such a treaty. But since everyone seemed annoyed at the assassination sprees, I thought I'd throw it out there.

Yes! The invisible knife of the market shall not be constrained!

Bah! A free market brings decadence and hedonism to part of the people and starvation to the rest. Only atheism can flourish in such a state. Only a strong central government, ruled with wisdom and guided by the light of the Lord, can ensure that every man lives in accordance with Scripture and receives his fair share of the harvest.

Wait, since when do you bow to popular opinion?

WILL KoM succumb to the hassassins?
WILL Polaria rise from the ashes, with tacit agreement of its much bigger neighbours?
WILL the plucky Croats manage their primitive capitalist society in a world devoid of stock markets?

It's clear, folks: stay tuned to Children of the Fatherland for more threats, assassinations, back room politicking and free market discussions!
