I'm currently Duke of Flanders/Holland/Brabant, with a vassal limit of 21. The Kings of Francia are constantly throwing vassals at me, without my asking for them, or even wanting them. Right now, I'm at 19/21 and most of these vassals are scattered all over Francia, without rhyme or reason.

Is there a way for me to shed these vassals, the ones that are further off especially? Friggin' King gave me vassals in Aquitaine, for example...

Transfer vassalage in the liege diplomatic menu. Or you can pick a random duke to sent those counts to, as well.

I usually just throw them right back to my liege, unless they are dejure part of my territory or something I wanted control over already.

Thank you! I was beginning to want to tear my hair out!

All fixed now.

Your liege was doing the right thing - he was giving you vassals to (supposedly) keep you happy, but spreading them out all over the kingdom so you couldn't build up a natural power base. This what kings are supposed to do. Your job as vassal is to marry, absorb and conquer other vassals so that if (when) it comes time to take the throne yourself you have most or all of your troops starting in the same general area.

Medieval vassal management 101.
