Absolutist Despot run guide for DLC

[LordOronir]

Is there any guide for an Absolutist run guide? Main goals: Centralizing as much power as possible, becoming a military power in the region, annexing Pales via war.

I did it but cant remember the steps now, but I invaded pales and turned Rizia into a theocracy like Desdria with the entire council dissolved, leader of pales and mazon publicly executed. Disbanded the house of delegates entirely and became defacto absolutist monarch under a theocracy where my entire council was replace by religious followers.
You can easily get this path along with the military one because appeasing religion is almost the same as appeasing the right winger militarist faction. In fact I managed to trigger both offers for a military dictatorship and a theocracy, I just chose theocracy cause it seemed easier.

Do you at least know what decrees you did and what important decisions you made?
