Forming the Latin Empire

[JuniorD]

It appears I have met the requirements for the Latin Empire in the swmh landed titles files... but it appears to not let me create it?

e_latin_empire = {
	color = { 150 105 56 }
	
	capital = 496 # Byzantion
	
	short_name = yes
	
	
	allow = {
		OR = {
			religion = catholic
			is_heresy_of = catholic
		}
		e_byzantium = {
			has_holder = no
		}
		e_roman_empire = {
			has_holder = no
		}
		custom_tooltip = {
			text = controls_kaliopolis_thrake
			hidden_tooltip = {
				495 = { # Kaliopolis
					owner = {
						OR = {
							is_liege_or_above = ROOT
							character = ROOT
						}
					}
				}
				497 = { # Thrake
					owner = {
						OR = {
							is_liege_or_above = ROOT
							character = ROOT
						}
					}
				}
			}
		}
	}
}

I completely control all holdings in those provinces, as well as controlling all duchies. The ex-Byzantines only control the Empires of Nikea and Trebizond

Edit: Figured it out, for some reason the Latin Empire is called Romania. I need a lot more money in order to form it.

“Latin Empire” is more of a historiographical term, like “Byzantine Empire.” “Romania” was one name of the late united Roman Empire as well as the Byzantine Empire. The Latin Empire, like the Byzantine Empire, was called both by this name and “Roman Empire.” It makes sense because all these entities considered themselves the successors to the old Roman Empire, and “Romania” means “land of the Romans,” just like (e.g.) “Serbia” means “land of the Serbs.” That formation is typical in Greek/Latin‑influenced languages.
