Furious Flaming Faggot

Jewitzipotl can never truly triumph over Codex.
The Empire has calmed over the last year. The plague appears gone in its entirety. Imperial power is on the rise again, although the tribes are also in a position of strength. They must be crushed, but although that is pressing, it is not immediate. The backlog of sacrifices to work through is quite impressive as it is.
Some of the tribal malcontents have even been talking, behind the Sun-Emperor’s back of course, about the possibility of leaving the Empire entirely! This is total madness, and any such thought must be scourged for the glory of the Gods.
This decision removes the cores of non-existent countries on a province, preventing nationalist rebels, I figure this will be handy in the long run, because it’ll secure the heartland when we start conquering outwards.
The propaganda campaign takes a surprising degree of organisation on part of the Emperor’s officials. It also causes grumbling amongst the other tribes. This is of course a good thing. The more rebels the better, within reason. They are like fertiliser for the soil of the Gods.
The Emperor continues to restrict provincial rights. Absolute power naturally must rest with the Child of the Sun. Hopefully there will be plenty of sedition from this with which to adorn the altars.
The priesthood is also losing some sway. The Emperor is increasingly becoming the centre of religious matters, and dictates a great deal of religious policy. This has caused the priesthood to lose some of its traditionally great power, although they do not seem to be noticing this change yet.
This is mostly because of the transition to Monarchy I think. Large government changes like that typically shift the balance of power around. With Monarchies you get a much stronger Aristocracy at the expense of everyone else.
Maya must be eliminated as soon as we share a land border. Although Aztlan’s culture group is quite large, the individual culture is about three provinces, so patriot rebels are occasionally springing up for the Mayans. When the Mayan scum are conquered and their rulers fed to the Gods, then we’ll be safe from patriot rebels and defecting provinces. In retrospect it may have been Jewitzalcoatl in disguise that instructed Montezuma to spare Maya.
Gradually the Empire is growing prosperous again. There is still a long ways to go, and we must not idle lest we fall sway to the curse of Popamoatl. This is assuming the Emperors even have the strength of will to hold off the inevitable tide of Jew-devil foreigners, for when Jews are about, the strands of fate grow convoluted.
A minor incident with a Nobleman gives the Emperor an excuse to further restrict Aristocratic power. It is not preferable to give power to these filthy, sodomite merchant types, but change is strength now, and we can’t have an Empire run by backwards, entrenched inbreds. They don’t even have very tasty hearts.
Meanwhile, over in Foreignerscumland. I forgot to turn Lucky Nations off for this campaign, so those assholes probably have a 9/6/9 Monarch waiting with lube and colonists for us.
Internal stability steadily improves. Not much else of interest is happening. At the moment we need more slider changes and a better Monarch to crush the tribes.
Excellent. The core process has been agonisingly slow over the past few decades, so it’s good to make progress. Ideally, perhaps if we gave a few more hearts to Huitzilopochtli, every province will be cored soon. Then, all those old conquered tribe cores can be removed via intense propaganda. If we can do that and crush the Maya subhuman heathen filth, we’re safe from any kind of Patriot or Nationalist rebels in the heartland. Such is the wisdom of Brotzalcoatl.
The Emperor has finally deigned to stop treating the Nahua as the worthless inferior Maya-loving trash barely fit for the altar that they are. Nahua is the most widespread culture in our culture group, so that’s a cool +10% tax across several provinces. Jewitzipotl is a tricky one, but his ways can still lead to great power and prosperity. It is a path carefully trodden, lest you fall into the role of Jew-devil yourself.
BROTZALCOATL IS A BRO TO ALL BROS, BRO
Judging from this, the Inca tribes have discovered us, but we haven’t discovered them. It’s getting a bit lonely up here, without any immediate neighbours to crush, rape and sacrifice.
Stability increases back up to 3. At the moment It’s important to build up the treasury while the peace lasts. The misfortunes of Jewitzipotl arrive fast and without warning, as the plague did.
Now that the Empire is stable again, the Emperor is in a prime position to reestablish dominance over the tribes. The barely averted political collapse a decade ago allowed the tribes to regain much of their independence. The campaign to subjugate them will probably take the lifespan of more than one Emperor, but the Gods will certainly not go hungry.
Rebel rabble displease Brotzalcoatl.
Rebels…
No rebels. Things go well.
Rinse and repeat. We need to get this out of the way before the Anglish show up with their Eye-rish and Jew-AIDS again. If we show weakness for even a moment, Jewitzipotl and his minions will strike. Childish delusions of ‘freedom’, ‘independence’ and ‘not-being-sacrificed’ are only a detriment to the Empire as a whole.
The central tribes are easily subjugated. Exerting power over the outer provinces is more complicated. A militarily minded Emperor is necessary to completely reestablish tribal control, For now, the current Emperor must be content with working through the hundreds of fresh sacrifices.
Aristocratic butthurt is fading. Although the past few Emperors have been restricting their power steadily, the Nobility is still an immense force in Imperial politics. Perhaps a civil war or two will shake things up. I think the general populace has recovered from the plague, a good civil war or two will keep them on their toes.
Excellent. Brotzalcoatl wills it.
Ah, but alas. The Emperor will not live to see the blood and organs of his people adorn the great altars. Perhaps the successor will add a few more massacres to the already stellar record of his forefathers? Following the death of his father, Huanitzin has been crowned Emperor of the Sun Huanitzin I. The recent tribal conflicts left hundreds of spare sacrifices, so the ceremony was very elaborate and no doubt pleasing to the Gods.
Emperor Huanitzin is not especially adept at government matters, but that isn’t a big problem. The transition to Monarchy, the recent cores and the high centralisation will keep AE high. The high diplomacy might be useful with the tribes, but the military stat will be most useful. There is a limit based on distance from the capital and your ruler’s military skill that determines what tribes can be subjugated. Military 8 will be sufficient to completely subjugate the tribes, even in the outermost provinces.
The new heir is perhaps less promising. Maybe a spot of plague will swoop down and take him off our hands.
Emperor Huanitzin has been accepted, warily perhaps, as Sun-Emperor of Aztlan. It falls to him to crush the tribes, appease the Gods, hold back the Jew-devil tide, and to eliminate any foreign interlopers. With time, patience and plenty of blood, the people of the Sun-Emperor will rule all the world!
