Elective Monarchy

[Yenzen]

Your personal holdings will pass on to your dynastical heir regardless.

If you lose the election then your personal demesne will pass on to a dynastical heir, but the elective title will change hands. The new election winner, however, will only keep his previous personal demesne.

So say i m king of A and i have duchies B and C i also have the counties x,y and z.I have gavelkind succession on all my tittles(and all my tittles belong to the kingdom A).While i m still alive i change the succession law of kingdom A to elective.If i lose the elections...I will lose the kingdom lose the duchies but my dynastical heir will still hold counties x,y and z??

If i remember correctly the moment i change the law to elective all my tittles that de-facto belong to my kingdom would change to elective as well.Why is this different from inheriting the tittle of HRE for example that starts as elective.In 1066 for example the HR emperor has his primary tittle elective and the others are agnatic primogeniture.

how can i create something similar to my game?

In my limited experience, your heir will inherit everything in your personal demesne regardless.

This is what i remember as well...but still in case you are elected to a tittle the rest of your tittles are still whatever they were before.I just want to make sure

Fun fact: your vassals that like you tend to vote for who you vote for. My roman empire has over 100 electors and if I change who I vote for nearly all of them will change their vote to whoever I change my vote to.
The vast majority of my vassals are single-duchy republics with no relations to pretty much any other vassal. Have normal taxes and low levies for republics and you're good to go.

By far the biggest benefit I think is being able to vote for your mid twenties grandson instead of having your 60 - 80 year old eldest son be heir to the throne. You deal with far fewer succession crisis' and get extremely long reigns.

If you hold duchy for 100 years and king only of your main titile(Have no other king titiles), then Duchy will become your kingdom duchy. It does take 100 years soo.. and if by some reason you lost it, time restart.
