Left Umayyid for independence but with a weak claim. Super strong republic with 2x the guys of Umayyid. Got a notification that some guys in Umayyid demanded the EMperor abdicate in my favor. He refused and I joined the war on their side and easily won it.

Once I won the war I got a game over saying I have become the ruler of a republic and am no longer allowed to continue play (I've been a republic for several generations)

What gives?

I expect this is because your capital is now inland (you would have gained the Ummayad capital province as your new capital). The instant unavoidable game over that results is not a good design feature.

While I'm here, Paradox, would it be possible for that misleading (well, wrong) game over message to be separately listed as a bug, and its priority bumped so we don't get more reports about it for ANOTHER 3 years?

No other title changes change your capitol that I'm aware of. Maybe it has to do with the faction system resulting in a capitol change as opposed to you creating the title?

Your not creating a title. The faction forces a succession, resulting in you becoming emperor. Since Emperor is higher than your current title, your capital is changed to the empires capital. Since it is inland, it will result in a game over.

We had to reload this game again from the autosave. I was at 7300 prestige and about to create my own empire since I couldn't take Hispania due to the republic bug and a faction got over 100% and presented the demand to him to make me ruler and he accepted and I got an instant game over.

Luckily on the reload he declined to accept and while they were fighting the war I did another holy war and founded my own empire.
