Instead we should pair necromancer students with Hysh students.

We have unlimited manpower, which means unlimited money in the long run. That said maybe we should look into making more farms or looking for more resources soon so we can keep the treasury topped up

It would be nice to have things like more mines, sustainable forestry, or maybe more developments in our Necromancy.
IIRC, you did discover iron and clay deposits during the last survey. There is also a forest nearby that could be harvested for wood and other resources, but the republic might not have direct land access to it.
The borders of our polity are somewhat vague, especially after the last expansion.
Regardless, all sort of fun stuff that is normally non-viable for bite-sized principalities is viable for the republic thanks to legions of undead workers.

Which options does the legislature consider part of integration at this time?

Collecting taxes is the major thing. But you should probably enforce the laws in the new territories sooner or later.

Bring the new territories into line with the new legal system, don't hit them with the one-two punch of new laws and new taxes in the same year. We also need to know who the fuck our new neighbors are. And everything for handling Dhar would be better and easier if we could tell how much it's actually doing.

We collect taxes this turn, and next turn we can build theatres and hire abritrators. Then the turn after, we can survey for resources.

With Dharscope being split into two projects, I've ditched the diplomacy option. I don't feel like either path alone will actually suffice, and that insights and results from each one are going to be needed to get traction on this problem.

Perhaps, dhar sinks instead? The whole "dhar in our food" thing seems to be most concerning, tbh. Or dharoscope, even. Personal protection is probably the easiest of all, given that we'll be simply trying to mass-produce stuff that strigani necromancers are already using.
Regardless,
[X] Plan: Continue Integration
Unconditional support for any plan that gets us more dice to do dhar countermeasures with sooner. We did "Enforce laws + collect taxes" on conquered territories before with much less effort to play nice. It is time... It was time a turn ago tbh.
