Don't try to hide it, Paradox. You are making a list of dynasties for the next DLC on which you could milk more money from us. So I decided to help you out with a small suggestion.
House Mamikonian is a dynasty of Armenian counts in what is today southeastern Turkey. They are playable only in Charlemagne start date. Why are they important you ask? Well...
The origin of the Mamikonians is shrouded in the mists of antiquity. Moses of Chorene in his History of Armenia (5th century) claims that three centuries earlier two noblemen of Chinese origin, Mamik and Konak, rose against their half-brother, Chenbakir, the Emperor of Chenk, or China. They were defeated and fled to the king of Parthia who, braving the Emperor's demands to extradite the culprits, sent them to live in Armenia, where Mamik became the progenitor of the Mamikonians.
Since China DLC was confirmed not to happen, at least give Chinophiles something to play. :p
Also, this is one of the coolest Dynastic symbols I've ever seen.

There are two landed family members in Charlemagne start date. One is a count of Ani in de jure duchy of Armenia, the other rules the neighboring county of Khliat in de jure duchy of Mesopotamia, both of them are vassals to the Bagrationi duke of Armenia, who is a vassal to Uqaylid/Armenian sultan, which also happens to be a tributary to Abbasids.

I've also suggested adding the Mamikonian coat of arms to the game - it would add bucketloads of motivation and immersion for playthroughs where you're trying to guide that old dynasty through times which are pretty tricky, overall. I really really hope the developers are taking notice, and many thanks to Moarice for keeping the suggestion in spotlight!
