Apart from the hilariousity of having 6 king titles and (so far) not being able to create an Empire, I've never seen a king with a nickname that fitting or a character with stats like that :p
Best thing though is that his name is Artus (i.e. Arthur) - while I did give him that name, I'd never have thought that he'd actually manage to become a king that wise :x
Oh, and guess how that bastard son (the bishop) of him is named :rolleyes:

(And yes, that many children seem to be a rule in my family XD)

What's up with your flags? HRE and England are looking a little off and your family flag is a little stretched.

The main reason for those are the ambition and plot system :x
When my character was a courtier of my old king, he constantly wanted some council position. So, I gave that position to him, and his stat increased by 1. One day later, I gave it back to the "actual" steward/chancellor/whatever, and soon he'd want to have another position yet again. The relationship hit of being fired from the council was basically made up for by the bonus for fulfilling an ambition (I had to gift one or two of the councillors, though, but that was kinda cheap anyway).
Later, when Artus had actually become king, I repeatedly used the revoke-a-province plot in order to get some order into the Swedish duchies. However, repeatedly succeeding in those plots also gave him +1 to intrigue every time, which increased his intrigue from 8 to 16 :x
It helps a lot that, with dozens of vassals, it's awfully easy to get the necessary 80% for the decision :p

Wait, why can't you create Scandinavia?? It looks like you have just enough provinces...

I did manage to do that shortly thereafter, but I think at the time of the image I was still one province short. Either that, or I had just gotten enough, not quite sure (I managed to reach the necessary number by repeatedly using the Kingdom of Finland De Jure claim on Poland (which used to own large parts of Finland, up to Kemi), province by province :x ).

The HRE is.. having some problems. German Greece declared independence and won the war easily (for some reason, all the HRE troops were haning out in Burgundy and didn't even move down to Greece till the war was almost over). A few months later, everyone declares war to install his brother. Then everyone declares independence from the brother. The brother gets assassinated, the old king is the new king.. Its crazy, man. Crazy.

I jumped in on independence when I had a chance, and got warscore from my brother's counties. So, I had a minimal impact on this whole thing.

here's some weirdness caused by De Jure drift:

As you can see I can usurp Persia despite holding nothing in Persia, this confused me so I went and had a look in the de Jure mapmode

See that tiny bit of different green in Sicily? thats Persia, thats all thats left of Persia after De Jure Drift destroyed the Kingdom

So now Emperor Edvard is also king of Persia.
 
The knights templar own a swath of land in southern france after winning the crusade. There is no such thing as a spanish reconquista, the knights templar will do it now! (I am wales and got those lands in france on my own little reconquista)

Meanwhile my ruler used to be married to his aunt and had his successor with her.
