Crusader Kings III

Argent? Will this resoooolve the problem?

Been playing a really fun game as Toulouse (earlier start date).  Early on I declared independence from France, there was an early Crusade and I put my son on the throne of Jerusalem, which only lasted about a decade till the Caliphate retook it... oh well.

Then somehow my other son inherited the throne of Navarra (maybe because I banged the Queen of Navarra and he was her son too), and I almost immediately died and so was King of Navarra and Duke of Toulouse, but lost the crown to a vassal, so now I'm Toulouse, a vassal of Navarra and quickly gobbling up the other vassals in Navarra as well as eroding the Kingdom of Aquitaine down.

There is now a thread on paradox about the anglocentrism of the CK3 start dates.

I don't know what those start dates are, but it doesn't get much more anglocentric than 1066.

They are. But I think this runs into the issue that in the early Medieval period dates that are Anglo-centric are also relatively Scandi-centric, no?

But yeah I love noodling round East Europe and the dates are not ideal for that.

[The Brain]

Just fast forward to the date you want. A large part of the problem is a generation that has grown up without audio and video tapes.

Just so, and 1066 was hardly a fine time to be "anglo"

[Valmy]

1453 wasn't a great time to be Anglo either.

The dates are celebrating times the French beat down the rosbif.

Finally had time to play this after a couple of months. Picked my game up back as Kingdom of Romanga. Noticed that the Byzantine Empire had exploded and never put itself back together, so I investigated that. Looks like a Coptic Nubian inherited the throne.

But why wouldn't the dukes just civil war/assassinate until the an Orthodox Greek is back on top? How does the whole thing fall a part and almost every dukedom go there separate way?

This was especially annoying to me because I discovered upon my heir inheriting that she had converted to Orthodoxy, which I just rolled with of course and now we have only one holy site (Antioch).

Also, I enacted High partition. While I do keep about half of the counties, which is appreciated, it will still split up the two kingdoms (Romanga & Africa).

Got primogeniture just in time. My guy is getting up there in age.

The medieval utopia of the Romanga Empire grows ever more prosperous.  The Renaissance has begun in 1294.

[Maladict]

The Renaissance has begun in 1294.

It started with misspelling their name? 

[Richard Hakluyt]

Romanga has to be a genre of Japanese comic books 

[jimmy olsen]

Ah, shit. Since the Kingdom of Romagna was my primary title the whole game I changed the name of the Empire to match and transposed the n and g. I'll change it when I load up today.
