Some pebble in Schneizel's path to ascension.

In all honesty, it's easier to change and control the world when you've conquered/replaced the main military power. A lot easier than trying to change it from within. For the first, you just need to kill the right people, for the second, there are a lot more social factors to consider. Hence, Lelouch's plan seems a lot more feasible, especially with the geass.

Yeah, just like when the USSR, Rome, and China collapsed, their respective regions were plunged into despair and darkness.
Besides, it also works for Suzaku as well. Whoever holds the power in Britannia CHANGES the world.

As for that quote about him ruling the world, wasn't the exact line the man who would have the world in his hand? It's got slightly diff. connotations.
|
That's basically ruling the world. You hold the world in your hand, you rule it.

Suzaku is currently CAUSING chaos by invading Europe. I fail to see how that have bothered you at all.

Yeah, and Lelouch is also causing chaos in Japan. Both are trying to achieve their goals by doing so. One is on orders, the other, of his own free will.

And I know how Lulu will resolve the chaos after Britannia falls. He will set up a new government, with or without himself in charge. It's hard, but it has been done before and hardly impossible.

Yeah, just like changing a empire isn't hard as long as its people are properly educated. It's hardly impossible as well.

And no, Suzaku can't curry favour from both the Emperor and the successor. The successor has to take the Throne by force, so Suzaku will have to pick a side. Since Suzaku chose to be a Knight of the Round, it shall now be his JOB to keep the current Emperor exactly where he is, and kill anyone who try to overthrow him. If Schneizel become the new Emperor, it is because Suzaku had already been killed trying to defend the old Emperor.

The Emperor won't be alive forever. Someone will take the Throne sooner or later and Schneizel is the only one capable of doing so.
Dipping on both sides of the pond isn't impossible.
