Bourgeois capture of the imperial money chest always ends like this. Can't make policy changes on the Bourgeois, they'll fuck off with the money they stole. Can't afford the infrastructure to remain competitive, that would require the money the Bourgeois has. All that's left is to blame increasingly smaller outgroups until the whole thing implodes and some new empire stands on the heap.
