Hopes goes out of its way to show how dogshit both Edelgard's and Claude's plans are. Edelgard can get backstabbed and her Empire only runs if she's in the center of it, which means her meritocracy can't exist since it actually functions by a cult of personality. Hopes Claude disbands the meritocratic system of Leicester to make himself its first king, then kills the Pope just because he can, not because he should.

Meanwhile the Aryan Nation is on the back foot and repeatedly begs its 6'3" super-muscular lightning god-king to pick up his weapon, take back his throne, and kill all of the browns and women ruining the Continent.
