I've got a question about a succession war. Imagine that 2 countries have claimed the throne of a country with a weak heir and upon death of their monarch, there will be a succession war.
How will be decided which country, the country that has a weak heir will join. Is it based on relations or is it completely random?
And another question: Will I lose my claim to the throne when I form the Netherlands or not?
Background information (not important): I am Holland and want to get Austria instead of France. So If Austria joins France, I'll have to fight France and Austria at the same time (not really that hard).
