Enough of domestic affairs for now; you decide to let your royal gaze outward once more, for you decide it would be about time for you to see where you would take your piece upon the international chessboard.

Greifswald was a new power in the region, and one that you considered could be taken to the next level if you went about it cleverly. Though you didn't consider yourself a warmonger, you did want to make certain you were made aware of potential opportunities for expansion. To that end, you went about considering your options.

To your south lay Mozolavia, your ally, at least for now. You didn't like their king, and you were certain that he didn't like you. To go after them would be a betrayal, unless you managed to get Prince Jan to claim the throne, but that might be difficult to accomplish, but if successful, you could extract concessions from Jan. All in all, you considered this plan to be the most risky.

To your east lay the Kingdom of Viskara, the half-faithful, half-pagan bastard kingdom that was the only thing between you and Pelechia, where the Udirgols had the princes under their thumb. Taking Viskara would be easier, but their unpredictable nature and natural affinity for their dense forests would make a direct conquest hard; not even the crusaders were able to go after them.

To the west and north lay the three northern kingdoms and the Elfrealm of the Snowglades, but they were of little concern to you. Svengalia was in the possession of three large islands, islands that were once nearly leased to the order. Svengalia and Toldmark had been squabbling and fighting over dominance over the islands, the peninsula, and the sea for as long as the two have existed. The two of them, along with the third player, the mercantile league based in Tautenland, had often approached your father to have him raise tariffs on this, ban the export of that, and all other things. But with the Greifswalder navy now coming into its own, you could potentially insert yourself as well.
