Assert Our Dominance
Manehattan may not be in open revolt, but it is not a cowed city. The ponies here are uncooperative at best and actively swindle and sabotage us at worst. Lilac's hold on power is not terribly strong. This is unacceptable; we Changelings are the victors of the Great War, and we shall act like it!

Historical Revisionism
In the beginning, wicked alicorns came down from on high to do battle for the cities of the plain, and smote many a pony. They laid a terrible curse on all ponykind, one not lifted until recently by a beautiful Queen. The revised official historical narratives might take some time getting familiar with, but we're sure the ponies will manage. And what better way to test that knowledge than through a game show?

Negotiate the Love Tax
It's simple, really. Changelings need love to survive. Ponies make love just, like, automatically. Ponies also don't want the Protectorate to bother them much. Think of your day-per-month as a kind of donation. But maintaining the strict quotas for Love imposed on us from Vesalipolis takes up a lot of our ponypower and resources, so Lilac will get Queen Chrysalis to revamp the taxation system.

Punitive Feedings
Ponies must be taught to obey their new overlords. Changelings must have supplies of love they can survive on. We can tackle these two needs at the same time by arranging punitive feedings against dissidents - forcefully draining all their love, with lethal consequences. This should increase our supplies as well as scare our loyal subjects into compliance.

The New Blood
Since we are building up the [MAN.GetName]'s military from scratch, we will have to start recruiting officers for our High Command as well.

It took a little convincing, but after consulting the numbers even the staunchest of our officers agree. We need more soldiers to cover the Protectorate's large territory, and to do that not only we are going to need local levies, but also a hard core of armoured units to crush any organised resistance. To this end General Dairyn has come to Manehattan, bringing with him his panzers to bolster our forces.

During peacetime a common practice of Equestrian industrialists was trade with the Griffon continent, in which they could make a significant amount of money in the markets to the east.

Ruling over the Manehattan territories, the military high command of Protectress Lilac - the self-styled Ost-Kommando - has effectively cut off the control of Chrysalis' central military command over the [MAN.GetName]'s Changeling garrison. Although politically and economically we are still subservient to our overlords in Vesalipolis, the Protectorate's military can now consider themselves a de facto independent fighting force. We had not received much support from our overlords in the past anyways, but our newfound independence means that we are completely on our own, and we will have to take some time adapting to the new status quo.
The ports of Albion and Fillydelphia are crucial in our trade as well as our maritime industrial production. We should ensure the Ost-Kommando's complete control over their affairs for the benefit of our Protectorate and the Hegemony... this does mean Vesalipolis will have to do with less oversight in our economy.
Although the end of the war brought opportunities to many, many more hit a dead end. Were we to reach out to such changelings, we're certain we could make an arrangement which benefits us both. After all, our soldiers need more guns, and we can't rely on Vesalipolis to take care of us forever. For the Protectorate to be capable of standing alone, its factories need bodies.
Secret societies in Manehattan have been present long before the fall of Equestria. The Ost-Kommando has launched an intel operation to identify and profile these organisations, but we already know that as it stands, they are no friends of either the Changeling regime or the old order. The question at hoof is the following: should we seek to crush them, or bring them to our side?

The pathetic Constabulary and the collaborationist establishment have been nothing but dead weight, contributing little to Lilac's efforts to stabilise the Protectorate.

The fact is, our scattered and underequipped garrisons in the small towns and cities stands no chance when the ponies rise up to overwhelm them. Most of the Ost-Kommando has given up trying to maintain any semblance of law and order in the territories, so Lilac decrees that we cut our losses early, and recalls all units to Manehattan.

Unrest within Manehattan and other regions has largely died down, but some holdovers of the ELF remain entrenched in the forests and groves of the vast countryside further inland. While they pose no direct threat to our rule, it would be prudent to flush them out and put any hopes for a return to the Ancien Regime down for good.

Being in complete control of Manehattan is a gargantuan, nigh-impossible task. It simply isn't viable to attempt to root out all dissenting voices in the Federation - it will only drive up resentment and lead to another rebellion in the future. By slightly loosening up censorship laws we can increase our regime's legitimacy and let the ponies vent some steam without compromising our rule.

In Manehattan and Fillydelphia, as well as some other settlements within the [MAN.GetName], there now exist enclaves of Changeling settlers living within self-contained communities. No matter their reason for having emigrated to East Equestria, their loyalty to their new country is firm and unshakeable, and they are more than willing to consider themselves proud citizens of the Dominion and Federation - even if this means being of an equal social status with the ponies.

Welcome the Exiled
Queen Chrysalis, being the tyrant she is (hush-hush about that, though) has alienated a lot of her own officers with her domineering ways, whilst others have found themselves demoted or even exiled on suspicion of "disloyalty" - whatever that means. The Ost-Kommando, now independent in all but name, can give these otherwise promising Changeling officers a second chance at a military career.
The days of the Protectorate are behind us. No longer are we a territory to be assimilated into the greater Changeling Hegemony. Instead, we are a diverse nation, where pony and changeling work in tandem for a better future. In order to ensure good will, however, we will have to resolve long-standing conflicts stretching all the way back to the Great War. It's time to reconcile our differences.
This decision allows us to fall back on surplus stockpiled Love so as to relax taxation quotas, lightening the burden on our pony subjects.
Revive the Guard
The pony Constabulary and our other collaborationist paramilitaries were essential to maintaining order within the Protectorate. Now, by invoking the mantle of the bygone Guards to codify the inclusion of ponies in the military, we can create a truly East-Equestrian fighting force that any citizen of the Dominion and Federation, regardless of their species, can be proud to call their own.

The East-Equestrian alternative to the Queen's Guard, the Ost-Equestrian Garde du Corps constitute an elite within the Army of the Dominion of the [MAN.GetName]. Whereas fanatical loyalty may have been the most prized attribute within the Queen's Guard, in Manehattan, initiative, ingenuity, and impetuousness are the winning traits that define the model soldier of the Dominion.

Love is Reciprocal
The process of Love extraction had been one of the most controversial aspects of the early days of our rule. But that is no longer the case, as ponies realise that the benefit of our rule outweigh the hassle of the occasional Love feeding. After all, we provide security, stability, and prosperity, all in exchange for a reasonable quota of Love - a reciprocal and mutually-beneficial relationship.

Griffonia Trade Mission
For the past month, our delegates and consuls have been visiting the countries of Griffonia, bearing gifts from Manehattan and promises of lucrative business opportunities. As we finalise the details of a multilateral trade deal between the two continents, the symbolism of the occasion - Manehattan negotiating its own diplomatic affairs - is not lost on Lilac nor the Federation's citizens.

A National Bourgeoisie
If we wish to maintain our prosperity, the ponies of the former establishment should be further incorporated into our state apparatus. Power over civilian affairs is to be further devolved to the national bourgeoisie, comprised of the upper crust of pony society from whose ranks we found our collaborationist allies.
While we have included the ponies in our government for the sake of unity, Lady Lilac is the one that guided the fledgling Protectorate into a modern state free from the stifling grip of Vesalipolis. Lady Protectress Lilac is wise, and will continue managing the affairs of the Dominion and Federation from the Crystaller Building, with the help of her loyal Ost-Kommando.
The day has finally come to end our status as a de iure part of the Changeling Hegemony and transition into becoming an independent nation. The bird of Manehattan will finally be free from its cage. With one final stroke of bureaucratic genius, Lady Protectress Lilac shall finally realise her dreams for a free and prosperous Dominion of the Federation of Eastern Equestria.
