Force religeon change in peace deal

[unmerged(36367)]

Under what cercumstances can I do this exactly?

I remember doing it recently as Sweden forcing Austria to become protestant, but just a mintue ago playing as Reformed France I could force catholics to change religeon in peace deal. Explain to me all the requirement's and who can and who cant please.

Force-Conversion : costs 50% warscore, and it must be asked in a separate peace (separate for them ; you may offer this peace for your whole warside, but you must choose separate war for them, even if they're alone). Force-Conversion may only be enacted between : a) western-rite christians (CRC/catholic vs protestant/reformed), b) muslims, and c) anyone may FC pagans.
Western-rite christians may change back, and will probably do so if they have more provinces of their old religion, but only after the expiry of the Truce. Muslims and pagans can't revert to their old religion, due to the impossibility to convert from sunni to shiite (and vice versa) or to paganism.

No, you can't offer the conversion on behalf of your alliance (some of whom might not be the same religion as you) - it must be your separate peace offered to the enemy nation separately from any alliance they may have.

An exploit to prevent target country from converting back before it has converted at least a few provinces to correct religion is to force it to be in a war constantly. As your ally would probably be the easiest way.

Plus, remember that only Western Christians can be force-converted and still have the option of converting back; as the OE for example, forceconverting Shiites, you don't have to worry about that happening.
