Convene the House Council
It is a time of crisis. In the lands of the ailing Empire, unruly vassals connive secession, whilst the Emperor's health grows worse by the day. To the west, Aquileia teeters on the brink of another civil war. To the south, the expansionist Wingbardy and her allies hungrily eye their neighbours. House Avian is surrounded by enemies, and a new strategy is needed if the House is to survive the turbulent years to come.

Proclamation of Avian Neutrality
Whilst House Avian has remained neutral and aloof from any conflicts since its secession from the Empire, its neutrality has never been officially acknowledged. Declaring our intention to remain neutral in future conflicts will hopefully insulate us from the worst of the wars to come.

Relax Citizenship Requirements
Ancient Heartlands families have been forced apart due to the stringent citizenship requirements and travel permits between the houses' territories. Loosening some of these restrictions is not only morally the right thing, but a pragmatic move on having our people warm up to the idea of a single realm of the Three Houses.
|
||
Scientific Exchange Program
Each of the Three Houses have had their own research programmes that diverged and would often be contrary to the betterment of the Heartlands themselves. By allowing free movements of scientists and unifying our efforts, the Heartlands can begin to form a new hub of scholarly endeavours in Griffonia.

The Avian Scientific Exchange Conference
The Avian Scientific Exchange Conference brings together the brightest minds from across the Three Houses for a months-long scientific conference in Avian. No doubt this conference will be a boon to the scientific communities of all parties involved, but the concentrated presence of so many foreign minds in one place will entail some substantial security concerns ...

The ratification of the Tripartite Common Market Agreement by the Three Houses has officially allowed for the close integration of their national economies, boosting economic growth by enforcing protectionist policies against foreign nations whilst greatly liberalising trade between the Three Houses. Although there arises from time to time occasional skirmishes or border wars between Houses Erie and Eyrie, the neutral House Avian acts as an arbitrator and so prevents the agreement from falling apart - an advantageous, if somewhat convoluted, state of affairs that all three Houses, despite their differences, are happy to maintain.

Support the Tripartite College
With coalescing curriculums, there's no reason why we cannot form a single curriculum offered by a single college. A Tripartite College will further bolster a sense of unity among our generations and instil an identity not determined of the realm of the House they are from, but of our single inter-house entity.

The Annual Hunting Trip
The time is upon us: the yearly hunting trip where most of the House Avian nobles shall leave for the countryside. With all of the doom and gloom that permeates the courts, it is refreshing for the members of said courts to unwind and get in touch with their predator side. Hunting never got anyone killed, anyways.

The Winterfest Ball
The Winterfest Ball is a House Erie tradition, and has never seen a single member of House Eyrie attend since the start of their bloody rivalry. With proper preparations, we can break this sad streak and demonstrate just how far the two houses have come in mending their relationship.
|
|
|
The Scion Swap
Tensions have diminished between House Erie and House Eyrie, but there are many that are sceptical of a lasting peace. What better way to tie the two houses together via the exchange of two highborn noble scions? Montague Eyrie, Earl of Verenia, and Lady Rosaline Erie of Bantry have demonstrated an interest in this exchange.
|
|
|
Eyrie-Erie Treaty of Friendship
Bread was broken and shared, love has bloomed, and plenty of laughs were had between House Erie and House Eyrie. Were one to see these two houses interact without knowing their history, they would find it difficult to believe that they were ever at each other's throats. It is time to declare the Eyrie-Erie feud as officially over.
|
|
|
|
| |
A Unified Intelligence Agency
The spy networks of both Eyrie and Erie need to be unified along side House Avian's intelligence agency in order to keep watch over external and internal affairs. Even with our current Tripartite's ability to fend itself off from other powers, we must make sure we are able to detect any future threats through unified cohesian within our intelligence agency.

The Tripartite Intelligence Agency is the central coordinating body for foreign espionage operations of the Three Houses.

Annual Military Exercises
We should work with the other Houses to pursue full military cohesion through annual military exercises. Even though our past disunity brought about different military strategies, annual military exercises between all houses can bring about more needed experience and ability to change in order to fight any future wars.
|
|
|
|
||
|
| |
Pursue Full Integration
It's time House Avian pursues full integration with both House Eyrie and House Erie in order to unite our houses under one banner and to strengthen our unity and prosperity while deterring aggressors from both the Empire, Wingbardy, and Aquileia. United we stand, divided we fall.

Form the Tripartite Legion
After years of division, feuding, hostility, and animosity between House Eyrie and House Erie, we as House Avian have been able put it all aside to work together. Not just work together, but we also have become brothers with the other houses during this turbulent period. Now we will lead both houses into a new future of security and order in which we can further our gains and help our houses prosper further.
|
|
|
A Common Military Leadership
It's time we unite our military leadership with the other houses and form a new chain of command under House Avian. The other houses will have their own chains of command but it will remain under our direction and guiding claw to make sure military coordination is successful.

The Second Winterfest Ball
After the success of the first Winterfest Ball, we should make an even bigger one in which all houses are already included, with more food, drink, music, as well as more grand speeches to showcase the common ground that every house has with each other. It's time we make our unity a true tradition to stand the test of time.
|
|
|
Support Local Companies
Our House needs to support more local companies in order for our economy to grow. Without healthy companies to keep employment high, as well as exports to keep being moved out, our economy will fall prey to foreign influences from both the Imperials, Aquileians, and even Skyfall.
|
||
| ||
Cooperative Farms
With our farmer programs becoming successful, we should encourage cooperatives to be able to have our farms be more self-sustaining and more resistant to economic fluctuations. These cooperatives will not only strengthen our food production but the camraderie our fellow griffs have with each other.
|
||
State-Capital Alliance
It is time we need to align the directions of our state with the interests of capitalists. We need to make sure the forces of capital are on the same page as us in regards to our security, so we will work to assist these forces with their wealth while they work to help us consolidate our nation.
|
||
Militarised Society
Even with our relative isolation from major Griffonian politics, we can never be too prepared in case of various powers wanting to eat our country whole and subjugate our people. All citizens will receive some form of basic training when they are of early adult age and be battle ready in case of invaders.
|
||
Mandatory Military Service
Every able-bodied adult griffon must be expected to serve for a number of years in order to bolster our ranks and help secure our borders. With all the possible invaders we have on all sides, House Avian must stand strong and make sure we have enough griffons to deter majors from simply attacking us without mutual bloodshed.
|
||
| ||
| ||
The Ehrenreich Redoubt
Our capital is the sacred center of power within our House. We must make some the most impregnable of modern walls and fences, as well as the most planned of machine gun nests in order to truly secure our capital from danger because if the capital is lost, our country will be lost in a short time.
|
||
The decentralisation of the House Avian arsenal and the distribution of weapon caches all over the Avian realm ensures that potent armed resistance may continue even when the House's main supply depots and armouries are overrun.
| ||
Avian Reservist System
The Avian Reservist System - named after its chief architect, Lady Katrina Avian - allows the House to call up its military reservists in a timely and efficient manner during times of crisis.
| ||
Das Raubvogel
Das Raubvogel - the Birds of Prey - is the name of a clandestine network for continued resistance activity should House Avian ever fall to foreign invasion.

Due to our small scientific base, foreign tank designs are far superior to anything we can come up with. Instead of wasting time trying to design our own vehicles, we should fund a production license program and request licenses from allies or other sympathetic regimes.
| ||
| ||
| ||
| ||
| ||
Acknowledge Advanced Aerial Accomplishments
Despite our small size. We have come to a forefrot of aviation advancement and skill. Griffons all over Griffonia know we have the best aircraft and our pilots are some of the best trained in the world. Should any foreign power try to strike us, they will find the Avian Airforce is more then capable of defending Avian.
|
||
Strengthen the Avian Livre
When Avian declared independence, a new avian livre was created. However, political instability and mismanagement ruined the value of the new currency. This has only increased our problems due to how much our country relies on import. We shall raise our interest rates and rationalize our fiscal codes to strengthen the Livre.
|
||
Found the Avian Chamber of Commerce
Avian economic policies remain those of a pre-industrial time but gone are the times of the feudal obligations. We must consolidate our economic forces and further our interests at home and abroad with a clear strategy. We shall set up a Chamber of Commerce to do just that.
|
| |
Language-neutral Inscriptions
Avian is not culturally united and our linguistic controversies slipped into the monetary debates. Many took offense at the wording used on our banknotes and coin and some stores and citizens even reject its use, thinking that they are foreign-made counterfeit. We will remedy to it by removing words requiring translation altogether.
|
||
A Commoners' Chamber
The creation of our Chamber of Commerce is well under way but due to old regulations, many commoners are still barred from joining it. By restricting participation in the Chamber on the basis of birth rather than merit, we are cutting ourselves from many competent and eager griffs. It is high time to remedy this and include the commoners into our plans!
|
| |
An Aristocratic Chamber
The creation of our Chamber of Commerce has seen little participation from those who hold much of our wealth: the nobility. Avian gentlegriffs have been reluctant to join this innovative institution. We will make the Chamber an exclusive group and break this inertia by appealing to their pride. True meritocracy will have to wait.
|
| |

Favour Aquileian
The answer to our problem is simple - all within our realm should embrace the great tongue of the Aquileians. While we are on a cultural and linguistic border, we cannot deny the fact that we have been part of the Aquileian cultural and political sphere for most of our history. We must respect the heritage of our great house. The Aquileian language is our past and it will be our future.
|
| |
Linguistic Dual Hegemony
Despite what many claim, the two languages of our realm are not out weakness, it's one of our great strengths! It is proof that House Avian is something greater than just an extension of the Aquileian or the Heartlander sphere. We are a bridge between two great cultures and it is our duty to preserve this. While many believe it to be impossible, we will thrive as a bilingual state.
|
||
Favour Griffish
The answer to our problem is simple - all within our realm should embrace the great tongue of the Herzlanders. The Griffonian Empire may have been shattered, but the Heartlands are still the beating heart of Griffonia. While it is indeed true that historically we were Aquileian, we should look at the future, not the past. And the future lies in the Heartlands.
|
| |
Codify the Aquileian Dialect
With the preparations done, new institutions of learning constructed and educators trained, the time to truly embrace our choice has come. From now on all schools and institutions of learning will only teach in the Aquileian language. While it might be a long and difficult task of returning back to the Aquileian cultural sphere, it's a necessary task to survive.
|
| |
Local Dialects
Despite the minute size of our realm, parts of our populace speak in a dozen dialects. While some are fearful that allowing these languages to exist will only divide our country, such claims are simply absurd. We will not destroy this proof of our greatness and uniqueness because some are afraid of anything they dislike. We will preserve these languages and dialects and encourage their growth.
|
||
Codify the Imperial Dialect
With the preparations done, new institutions of learning constructed and educators trained, the time to truly embrace our choice has come. Never again will Aquileian be taught in any institution of learning as a "native" language, from now on Herzlander is the native language of the inhabitants of our realm. While many will rant and rave, we cannot allow ourselves to remain behind the times.
|
| |
Adopt Imperial Drill
As our great house is aligning itself with the beating heart of Griffonia, we should not only look into their language, but also into what advancements they have made. The Griffonian Empire, the leader of the Heartlands, has been greatly expanding their armed forces and there is much we could learn from their offensive doctrine. And lucky for us, there are officers willing to share their knowledge.

Adopt Aquileian Drill
As we are returning to our roots, it only makes sense for us to follow Aquileia in other ways. And the Aquileians have been making great advancements in military sphere. The most notable of these is the idea of a large and organized "Grande Armée". While we can't field a large army, we can field a perfectly organized one. And it seems that there are quite a few Aquileian commanders wiling to help us.

The Strong Arm of the Revolution
The Avian People's Liberation Army, reformed along socialist and egalitarian lines, will protect our nascent communist state from those who would seek to tear it down from without our borders.
| ||
The Long Arm of the Revolution
Even with the people achieving victory, there is still plenty of subversive agents ready to try and dismantle our paradise from within. We must reform the original Triparte Intelligence Agency into a vanguard to make sure our populace does not waver from liberal and reactionary lies.
|
The Avian Commissariat for State Security protects our people from the fascist bourgeois agitators, those archaic remnants of the previous aristocratic capitalist society, who would seek to destroy our idealistic socialist nation from within.

A Socialist Education System
Every Aviaire griffon will be given a red book and be required to read at least 5 pages a day. If they cannot read because of illiteracy, they will have those words recited by loyal party members to make sure they understand the glories of socialism and why socialism is the only way forward.
|
||
| ||
| ||
Purging the Army
Although it was his allies within the armed forces of House Avian that backed him during his coup and put him on the Avian throne, there are still elements of the army that remain loyal to the House and the departed Lady Avian, not to mention rival cliques in the military. Only by liquidating all opposition within the armed forces can the Lieutenant-General solidify his rule.
|
||
Adopt the Stahlhaube
We need new helmets that are capable of more easily stopping bullets from downing our troops. The Stalhaube is an excellent helmet to make standard-issue for our troops. Along with that helmet, we should also make sure to give soldiers the basic shovel and binoculars as well to be more effective.
|
| |
| ||
Restructure the Secret Service
The original Triparte Secret Service was a good start to a needed organization to protect against foreign spies but now it must be remade and made sure to not only watch for foreign subversives but domestic subversives as well who wish to weaken the integrity of our state.
