[h1]1. Introduction[/h1]

You are the ruler of the Empire and the Head of the ruling dynasty. Your goal is to be crowned as the Ultimate Ruler. To do so, you need to assure obedience of noble houses and prosperity of the Empire. To be crowned you need to achieve a certain number of glorious achievements, which are listed under Victory screen.

More importantly, you can't allow the Empire to fall in the meantime. Which can happen if Terra, the capital of the Empire, is taken over by the enemy or if Stability falls to 0. Note that stability can start to fall if your treasury goes negative (so avoid bankruptcy) and if you take too long to crush a rebellion when it starts.
