So I'm currently playing as Denmark with HCA. According to the tooltip this should prevent me losing chunks of my realm to foreigners through inheritance. This evidently is not the case as I've already lost one of my counties to the ERE (yeah, they even sent a doomstack all the way up the north sea to squash me when I tried to take it back).

Right now my duchess of Mecklenburg, who holds sway over a considerable and rich part of my realm, has as her heir the Duke of Léon,next in line to the throne of Navarra. From what I understand if the duke of Léon becomes king and then inherits Mecklenburg it will still pass out of my realm, right? But what if he inherits Mecklenburg first? Does he become my vassal? How does it normally work with HCA and vassal inheritance warnings? This is an area of the game that I find cofusing and hard to understand. If anyone could help me along I would be much obliged.

I think that as long as HRE exists your crown authority won't protect your territories that are part of de jure HRE and not Denmark, but I honestly have no idea how crown lows actually work. There seem to be many contradictory experiences of different players.

Mecklenburg is de jure HRE if i'm right. So, crown laws of Denmark doesn't matter, only the HRE has a say in this. So unless HRE CA is above high, you lose the duchy.
Also, if the heir is already the duke of Leon, then he will get the duchy no matter what you do.
