changing into noble republic

[petertel123]

I'm playing as friesland and i wanted to change my government to noble republic so I could make marriages with other countries (I'm an administrative republic at the moment), but the option is greyed out and it says that I can't change to noble republic from administrative republic, why is that?
I already knew that you can't freely change your government from a monarchy to a republic and you can't change some unique governments at all, but I'm unaware of any other restrictions on peaceful goevernment change
ps I already have the required tech level

It would require the creation of a noble/aristocratic class with the training and willingness to assume government duties. Once you achieve that, you should be able to gradually move to a more nepotism-oriented government type.

I don't really know why it isn't possible, but here's a couple workarounds:

If you can form the Netherlands you can get an event to become a Dutch republic, which can also marry, but has rulers for life.

You could use the Diplomatic Ideas CB to turn yourself into a monarchy, and then again to turn yourself into a Noble Republic, but that would require you to have both of those as neighbours, which is higly unlikely

I knew about the dutch republic, but I would have liked some royal marriages before I got there
about thediplomatic ideas CB, I already want naval, trade and expansion ideas, those ideas are already quite a strain on my diplomatic power

I have played Friesland before and was able to change to a noble republic. It needs 100 ADM points. Do you have those? Maybe you also need to be at peace, but I am not sure about that.
