I'm sorry to be the one bringing the news to you Ferdinando, but that is not Sicily
I don't think the Muslims would've been very happy that most of the Christian world declared war on them 9 times, whether the wars ended in their favor or not.
Hmm, sure. They've actually expanded since.
Dayum. This isn't an MP game?
Actually it was part of the two Sicilys.

That's true, but that state never existed in my game, and Calabria is not part of the island Sicily.
Not sure if joking but there was a kingdom called the two sicilies cause the inhabitants of sicily and naples always called their own region sicily. If i remember that right
Essentially, yeah. Both Naples and Sicily were "Sicily" back then. Thus there were two Sicilies. And then there was a kingdom that got both these areas under their thumb, which became the kingdom of the Two Sicilies.
Nations displacing outside their initial borders is pretty common.
Not too uncommon; RMs can form PUs even without throne claims, so every once in a while an OPM will get a PU with a major. However, it usually falls apart pretty quickly.Not sure how common this is, but it made my day when this happened

Not that uncommon, but I like it all the same: I have a bit of a soft spot for Flanders. Anything you can do to help them inherit?
what is even stranger for me is a formerly muslim Morea bordered by Venice and France - must have had strong protectors
hmy:
I've been enjoying this thread immensely, so I thought I would add a few oddities of my own.
First- A self-loathing Bavaria from my current Brunswick game:
how do you get -65 relations with yourself?
Second- Burgundy has an odd notion of 'faithful ally'
I had guaranteed them years earlier, then Switzerland decided to pile on.
Third- We don't know who the new king will be, but we know he's 14...
Finally- my entry into the Strange England contest from a recent TEU game:
Ireland is my vassal, and I was allied to Northumberland, but the green country on the west coast is Hamburg, with whom I had no dealings at all. They have held that territory for a good 27 years. Also, I never took territory from England until I got a core on Derby. Lancashire was captured from Holland.
Also had an odd occurrence recently, but didn't get a screenshot: I (Brunswick) was notified that I had formed a royal marriage with Guyenne. Trouble is, I hadn't asked them, nor had I received any proposals. Spontaneous elopement?

Not sure really. I guess I could send them gifts or something

No, his name is actually "Age". When he becomes king he will be King Age XIV.

and if he manages to form a personal union with Byzantium, henceforth he would be known as Age of Empire (the First)
Unfortunately, historians will have mixed opinions about his grandson's reign.
