Nerf them both into space, I'm sick of blobs and I'm sick of getting stomped by Muslims. Stupid caliphate, hre, ere, mauretania, Africa. Ilkhanate and timurids and golden horde later. This game would be so much more fun if it was more possible to have blobs be unstable. Instead I always end up starting as an Italian in south either salerno capua or napoli bc they're fun and they start in a place where getting squashed is a LITTLE less likely. But for the love of Pete let's nerd large nerf large kingdoms, make it easier for me to backstab and become king or breakaway myself please. Instead they're practically countries and don't feel like decentralized kingdoms like they're supposed to!
