There are some who argue that a written constitution would have prevented Lightning's rise to power, that we trusted too much on the goodwill and wisdom of government officials and the monarchy when both were easily deceived. Perhaps it is time for Aris to draft a constitution?

Trigger country event “An Arisian Constitution?”
The Question Of Political Violence
In addition to bureaucratic maneuverings and jingoistic rhetoric, Crack Lightning attained power through political violence using paramilitaries. It also took violence to depose him, and now the Pinks and the Blues are debating over what role violence should play in politics, and whether it can ever be regarded as a force for good.

Moral Politics
The question of violence has led inexorably to the question of morality. The Pinks say that tyrants can only be held back by the embrace of moral precepts, which fill the gaps left by law. The Blues argue resolutely that even the most upstanding individuals will turn to demagogues in times of social alienation, and we must combat the fraying effects of capitalism in order to restore social solidarity.

The Right To Bear Arms
The right to bear arms is a recent suggestion by Posada, who argues that the workers must be armed and organized into worker's militias, so as both to defend their homes and to overthrow any tyrant. Others see it as an legitimation of the armed gangs of "patriots" which helped Crack Lightning seize power in the first place.

The Right To Revolution?
Overthrowing Crack Lightning was clearly the right thing to do, but Skystar is being asked a vital question: why? Was it only because his rule was illegal, a usurpation of legitimate authority? Or was there something more: does every creature, usurped royal or not, have the right to rise up against their government if they believe it to be tyrannical?

We will swoop in and avenge the North Zebrican War, building the glorious Hippogriff Hegemony the Ace always dreamed of.
It was not our enemies in the North Zebrican War who murdered our leader. We were stabbed in the back, and the arch-traitor is being sheltered in Equestria even now. Perhaps a telegram to Chrysalis is in order...

As described in Marks' Capital, the rich are not at fault for being rich; the system simply requires some winners, and they are as much puppets of history as we are.

False consciousness is a troubling element in every state. Some workers simply do not understand how communism will aid them personally, and believe the capitalist lies that we seek to oppress and hurt them. Therefore we will begin a massive education wave, accompanied by sweeping reforms, to show the people that we are on their side. No proletarian should fear their own dictatorship.

Shall we release it as a puppet state, under a sympathetic leader? Send the population to be deradicalized? Or shall we pursue justice, and punish these monsters? The decision is up to the General Secretary.

Steel Stallion was a great pony, but to call yourself a "Stallionist" is to put up a hero to be worshipped instead of another traveler along the same path.

We must consult every part of the party and then make decisions in accordance with revolutionary theory. This requires the party be well-informed, and for as many creatures as possible to become members so that all may be heard.

Streamline Excessive Wages
Defeat is an ugly word to describe our liberation, but nonetheless it is sometimes important to remember that our new friends did defeat us, both on the battlefield and in the workplace. Let that be a lesson to us: the Chiropterran Labourer and the Colthaginian indentured worker outproduced us, so clearly their model of wages and working hours is the way of the future.
Aris is strong, Aris is stable, Aris is profitable. We could not have gotten here on our own, and in an increasingly interconnected world it would be foolish to expect us to be on our own in the future. Aris rises from the ashes, together!

A voice is a siren's very being, the core of who they are and what they do. Such a talent proved unmatched before our banishment, and it remains so today.

Return To The Mainland
Ravaged by a "Storm King" just a few years prior, the Hippogriffs once had control over the territory known as Zumidia, who took the chaos created in our rise to break away as an independent nation. Now they will serve as the springboard for our entrance onto the continent, as the first nation of many to fall to our armies, our magic, and our song.
Zumidia has fallen, as we knew it would. The new population of zebras will serve us well, as a new source of magic to feed off of. But now that we are on Zebrica itself, it is time to prepare for the next major step in our plans; the conquest of all the nations surrounding us, to bring more subjects under our control.

Strike The Colthaginians
To the east lie the Colthaginians, a powerful nation of North Zebrica that could potentially rival us militarily in power if given the chance. Though it is not a part of our primary goal, that being revenge against those who banished us, a preemptive attack will ensure non-interference in our future affairs.

Colthage is nothing more than a distraction from our true goals, and going after such an irrelevant region would be nothing but a waste of time.

The Zonician Excuse
Much of the propaganda used in Colthage for any conflict was based on some ancient cultural construct known as 'Zonicia', or a union of zebras in the region. While such claims are obviously pathetic compared to our right to rule all, it would serve well as an excuse to grab some more land we desire...
Custom effect tooltip: Will unlock decisions to take territory associated with the nations of Zonicia.
The Southern Threat
Upon studying conflicts before our return, we have found that the nations of Quaggatai and Colthage have never had good relations. In fact, relations were actively hostile, with the former stealing land after the latter's weakness. The anger that the Zonicians have at such a perceived crime can now be used for an actual purpose; war against the ancient enemy of their proud culture.
Gets a Annex wargoal for the state Buckhara (881) against owner of Buckhara (881)
Warzena's Mistake
When Hippogriffia was still under a weak harmonic monarchy, Warzena relied on them for protection believing that they would save them from any threats. Now, with us in charge, they have nowhere else to turn to. We are generous enough to offer a new kind of protection, however; a place as our subjects and a seat for the show.
The fact that Chiropterra still exists after a thousand years just goes to show that the Equestrians will never clean up after their own mistakes, especially their ancient ones. It's time for us to do what they won't, and wipe this mess that they left behind who plagued the region for over a thousand years. They will give up their faith and serve us alone now, whether they like it or not.
Chiropterra is an interesting state, to put it mildly. Fanatically devoted to their goddess almost as much as our subjects are to us, they are nothing but a relic of a bygone era fighting for a failed cause. To say that others in North Zebrica hate them would be putting it mildly, and now that we are in direct conflict with them we can use those sentiments for a greater purpose.

The Sandy Wastes
Zarantia is little more than a desert wasteland, with little value to be gained from taking it. Yet, they hold a key piece we need, that being a connection to Maregypt, our future target. So, they too will experience the wonder that is our song, and be subjects to our rightful rule.
A false state, Tobuck does not have a right to exist. Or at least, that seems to be the popular opinion here, with it surrounded by three nations that all claim it as their own. While their rhetoric turned out to be all bark and no bite, we will show that our demands are more than just words.
Being depopulated, hot and unindustrialized, spending time in Zarantia would be a complete waste of time for any of us. Our Constant and a few Beacons of Magic will be sent instead to deal with any issues that appear there; the Beacons will be able to pacify such a wasteland with relative ease, and perhaps the Constant will even be able to find some use from the endless dunes.
North Zebrica is ours, and all of the immediate threats to us have been dealt with. But as our spell and power expands, so too does our ambitions. It's time for us to focus on what we care about most; revenge against those who have wronged us, whether that be our neighbors to the west or our old homeland from across the seas.

Abyssinia is the last step in our plans westward in Zebrica. They hold no particular value themselves, but their land will be necessary for our invasion of Equestria across the ocean.

Declares a Annex war against owner of Canterlot (3)
The Partition
The war is over, but our rule is not secure yet. The changelings did play a part in defeating the Equestrians, and they expect their share of the spoils. They do not trust us anywhere near actual negotiations, so we will send our Constant to discuss the terms of Equestria's land and ponies. The fate of the Pillars of Equestria will, of course, be non-negotiable.
Custom effect tooltip: We will meet with the Changeling Queendom to discuss the partition of Equestria. Owning key cities will allow us to secure more territory in the negotiations.

Dealing With The "Partners"
Our alliance was always meant to be temporary. A means to an end until we inevitably backstab them and being them into our musical fold. But pacifying Equestria will take time, and a long war against our former allies is not in our interests at the moment. One way or another, our relationship with our new neighbors must be resolved.

The Jewels Of Equestria
Equestria has changed. Where there was once farmland and mere peasant villages, there are now sprawling cities with millions of ponies all in a single place. These are the new jewels of Equestria, and they are ours to claim, all we have to do is go and take them for ourselves.

Despite the progress we've made, we can never stop learning from the present and the new experiences we have.

The Spoils Of Zumidia
Zumidia has something very important beneath the ground, reserves of Tungsten we will need for the future. The hippogriffs likely knew this, but they did little to exploit or extract the metal, either lacking the technology or not wanting to seem like imperialists or foolish reasons along those lines. We have no such qualms, and are certainly willing to put in the effort required.

Lessons Of The Invasion
The invasion of Zumidia may have been easy compared to what the future has in store, but there are still important lessons we can take from it. Many of our enthralled soldiers did not have everything they needed to fight or occupy the territory, decreasing their effectiveness in the war. Developing specific sections of the army to fill such gaps could prove useful for later.

The Panopticon
A very interesting idea has been discovered, one that may hold much potential. Rough plans, sketches for a structure called a panopticon, which in theory would be able to watch hundreds of people from a single tower, while only needing one or two creatures stationed inside. Given how difficult the resistance was to deal with, acting on such measures may not be as ridiculous as first thought...

We as sirens are the greatest musicians that this world has ever seen, and our voices are matched by none, whether it be in song or in sound. But others can create music too, and some things they have played are not that bad. Maybe they have talent that we should let show too?

Hippogriffs And Zebras
The hippogriffs have experience on Zumidia, having run some sort of "mandate" for multiple years over them. We should put that experience to use, and send a few over to help keep things safe over there. After all, if they already know each other, everything will go better, right?

She never told me exactly how to convince him, though...

Aria has given a pretty good suggestion, that being having all the hippogriffs merge their military corporations into one big one so we can manage them easier.

Ending The Mandate
When the hippogriffs were here before, Zumidia was never meant to be more than a temporary mandate until a better solution could be found. But now, we are that better solution. With the Zumidians fully integrated under our control, any concept of another "mandate" has been replaced with full integration as a part of our lands.
Another idea by Aria was to create a sort of research group that we keep unenthralled, so that they can work well together to invent and create new things for us to use to take over the world! It sounds fun, and interesting too, which is surprising for something coming from that no-fun siren...

Bring Together The Zebras
In many ways, Warzena has a lot in common with Zumidia, a region which we've already got completely under our control. Therefore, the easiest and most straightforward option is to just make it an extended part of Zumidia, with the same methods we used for the zebras. It will still take a while, but this way we can just sit back and wait for everything to fix itself.

Tobuck is a central city in North Zebrica, and possibly the most important one we've taken. Fortunately, there aren't that many problems with it, besides perhaps a few underground cells and a few warlords left behind in the chaos running around. Nothing too of notice, but fixing whatever small issues we need to will go a long way in this case.
There were two primary classes in Chiropterra; the regular loyalists, and the laborers taken from raids to work as practical slaves for their cause. Being such a totalitarian, oppressive regime, we could actually gain a major bit of goodwill for freeing them on their former masters. At the same time, the old system was efficient, and Aria wants to keep it around to keep all those creatures in check...

Chiropterra as a state, as a culture, everything about it revolved around one thing; bringing about the return of some alter-ego for an Equestrian princess. Their devotion rivaled even what those under our spell have, and it may be a good idea to pull that devotion out to make sure they praise us alone. Our song still keeps them compliant, however, so maybe that would be more trouble that it's worth?

Considering the little population in Zarantia and the nature of the desert they live in, the full integration of the former nation could be described as little else but tedious. Fortunately, the same things that made it difficult also made it quick, and the matter of keeping the place under our control should be wrapped up soon, just like all the rest of the creatures here.
After a long period of reforms, tedious decision making, and generally unfun activities, the state of Chiropterra is, for better or for worse, an integral part of our holdings. Their population now serving us, they can finally find a use serving new masters, not some young and insane moon immortal.
Colthage is, to an unfortunately degree, a place of many problems and few obvious solutions. So little solutions, in fact, that for once I don't know where to even begin with it. I should talk with Aria or Adagio; maybe they'll know how to help me deal with the zebras?

On The Issue Of Land
Land was and still is an ever-present question in Colthage, one that has divided landowner and peasant for years now, particularly in the region of Coltva. There are no issues or rebellion from the peasant masses anymore, of course, but the fact remains we still need to take a side in this debate. Who should control and own the land on our behalf?

The Question Of Manedalusia
Manedalusia was a very contested area between Maregypt and Abyssinia, who both saw it as their own rightful land.
