The former and now deposed monarch of [Root.Country.GetName] had a sizeable family, and at least one of them believe they have a better claim to the throne of [Root.Country.GetName] than [Root.Monarch.GetTitle] [Root.Monarch.GetName]. They have managed to gather up a rather large following, and is marching towards [Root.Capital.GetName], intent to place the 'true' [Root.Monarch.GetTitle] on the throne.

The Manpower Menace
We have had no shortage of manpower since our overlord started subsidizing our army, but there's been much trouble among the soldiers since the new ones arrived.

They are less disciplined, or just plain refuses to take orders from our own generals.

Embargoes and Smugglers
Recent embargoes against our overlord's rivals might be the end of us, financially. Thankfully, there are esteemed individuals in [Root.Country.GetName] who would graciously help us with our trading problem. Though it might be silly to call such a small operation 'smuggling', that is exactly what it is and as we might be breaking some of the embargoes our overlord demanded of us, they will probably not be happy with our misconduct.

Our embargoes against our rivals are not working as well as we had hoped them to, and one reason might be that one of our vassals is still trading with them!

On the other hand powerful business interests would be willing to pay for ignoring the smuggling.

War Never Changes
In exchange for some peace and quiet, our vassals are obliged to pay more income to us, their overlord. They are not called into any of our wars, which we believe is a great trade-off - for some gold they are excluded from almost all wars.

The Cruel Behavior of Uncouth Officers
'Many small streams creates a large flood' - a proverb that unfortunately proved true in our protectorate. Small events, barely noticeable to us but great slights to those who witnessed or were exposed to them, together with older complains and bitter memories from when the country became our protectorate became the final straw.

The Question of Rights
A subject of ours currently holds lands to which we have a claim. If we were to claim this province for ourselves they would undoubtedly regard us with contempt and distrust. On the other hand they would be in no position to stop us from taking control of the area if we would wish it to be so.

Subject Turns Against You
Our warmongering, so they say, has caused ire among our subjects. As the rumors go then they think we care little for ruling justly and more about conquering like barbarians. As false and rude as they are it would be unwise to leave this be.

Cannon Fodder
It appears our country is getting rather empty and lacking in a very important resource: Cannon fodder. Fear not!
