De Jure Drift???

[TKFS]

So I've got a question on drift. I'm currently playing as the Byzantine Emperor, and I recently recaptured the duchy of Nicaea, which was drifting into the Sultanate of Rum. I figured that when I recaptured it, this would stop, but it still says it is drifting. Any idea on how to stop this? Thanks!

The drift goes in reverse until its 0 again, unless you mean it keeps increasing?

Every year the number will reduce by two years.
So when it says that it has been drifting to Rum for 50 years it will tell you 48 years at January 1st of the following year as long as Rum has lost control of at least one of the duchy's counties.

I'm not sure it is going to reverse in your case since you are not the king of Anatolia. However it doesn't really matter as you are still the de jure liege as the Byz emperor.

That will not matter. If a drifting duchy is removed from the de facto borders of the Kingdom it is drifting towards, it will rollback, whether you hold its "native" de jure title or not. (Also, Nicaea is de jure Greece, not Anatolia.)

I'm curious, where in the ui does it display this drift?

 

[mackinator]

switch to either kingdom or empire view and mouse over them, you need to hold all parts of the duchy if a king, or kingdom if you are a emperor i believe

Thanks guys. I guess I hadn't ever notice that things have to drift BACK.

Anyone know if you can mod dejure to drift in duchies for empires?

I have another questioning de jure drift: can an individual county drift into another duchy?

THat would be interesting for the 'Rise of Nations' style of gameplay, yesssssss....

No. De Jure duchies are static. Duchies can drift into Kingdoms and Kingdoms can drift into empires.

I have no idea if it's possible to mod or not
