England is kingdom tier, but Great Britain is emperor tier with Scotland and Wales as Vassals. Either that, or Scotland and Wales de jure drifted into the Kingdom of England and Northern Ireland is non de jure demesne.

I think this is getting into the territory that started the Troubles...
A law change vote for e_USA was initiated to repeal the ACA. Normally, this would never pass because most people have the Selfish modifier "I would lose insurance!" and Family modifier "My family member would lose insurance!"
However, since the voters are Malcontent, they voted to repeal the ACA anyway.

Oh wait...
PARADOX IS THE ILLUMINATI CONFIRMED!

Prince Henry: My brothers, we have come together in great secrecy to conclude this alliance for independence from our controlling father. The earls of Leicester, Norfolk and Chester support us.
Prince George: We also have the backing of the Kings of Scotland and France. Between our combined military prowess, and such allies, victory against our father is certain.
Prince Richard: The stage is set, the orders have been given, all the pawns are in place. Today, we shall have our independence!
*King Henry II clicks the Enforce Realm Peace button*
Prince Henry: WTF!?
Prince George: Oh sh*t!
Prince Richard: fing hax!!!
Spymaster John Lackland: lol. prblem?
Prince Henry: I hereby invite you all to join me in assassinating our brother John.
All: An intriguing scheme!
**********
Guy de Lusignan: The Saracen king has been expanding greatly on our borders. His retinue swells every day, his marshall tirelessly trains ever more soldiers to face us in battle. The second crusade has been an unmitigated disaster, and the other crusader states may be of questionable use. The Byzantines are upset with us, and will not offer us much. And should the Saracens and Turks put their differences aside, we are easy prey. Yet, precarious as our position may be, we are in no immediate danger. Our non-aggression pact with the Saracens will protect us from them, for their king knows honour. We will use these years we have bought to rejuvenate our kingdom, and atract new crusaders to-
*Duke Reynald de Châtillon has declared the Oultrejordanian Holy War for Medina against Sultan Salah ad-Din of Egypt*
Guy: REYNALD YOU IMBECILE! YOU HAVE DOOMED US ALL!
[Later at Hattin]
*During the battle, our soldiers managed to surround and cut down Bishop Rufinus.*
*We have captured King Guy de Lusignan and he now rests in your dungeon*
*We have captured Baron William of Montferrat and he now rests in your dungeon*
*We have captured Grand Master Gerard de Ridefort and he now rests in your dungeon*
*We have captured Baron Humphrey of Toron and he now rests in your dungeon*
*We have captured Bishop Hugh of Jabala and he now rests in your dungeon*
*We have captured Mayor Hugh of Gibelet and he now rests in your dungeon*
*Saladin immediately jabs the Execute button next to Reynald's name*
Balian of Ibelin would then go on the be repeatedly captured, ransomed and released.

If this would have actually operated like in CK2 then the first one would not happen seeing as far as I am aware factions are not affected by realm peace and in the second one that would have been a private war between Renald and Saladin.
Not quite correct. Though Great Britain is an Empire, Scotland, England, and Wales are kingdoms, they aren't vassals. The monarch holds the titles of England and Scotland. The crown of Wales was destroyed many years ago and the duchies inside de jure drifted to England.

Well the only country-sized entity in Europe without national debt is Estonia and it is among the most militarised countries in the world (because of being next to Russia).

As 20 January, 2017 approaches, the successor of George 'the Liberator' of House Washington is about to come to power. I hereby present you
A BRIEF HISTORY
Of the living Grand Princes of the Principality of the United States.
George 'the Avenger' of House Bush: Famously pressed the claim of Emir Jaber III of Kuwait after Emir Jaber III lost his kingdom in the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait. His reign also saw Emperor Mikhail of the Soviet Union accepting the ultimatum of his Independance faction.
Bill 'the Unchaste' of House Clinton: Caught cheating on his wife with a courtier; the opinion penalty briefly put the Overthrow Grand Prince Bill faction above 100%. Changed the succession law to Absolute Cognatic. A fairly prosperous reign.
George II 'the Ill-ruler' of House Bush: the time Court Imam Osama of Afghanistan succeeded with the Plot to Destroy the World Trade Center. George II promptly called a crusade on Afghanistan, which he won, and later used the Rival CB to overthrow Sultan Saddam of Iraq. But since neither kingdom was de jure American territory, he spent the next five years moving his retinue doomstacks accross the desert, trying to squash various revolts, holy wars and claimant wars. Won his election on RNG.
Barack 'the Scholar' of House Obama: first Grand Prince of his gfx_culture, he built many Hospitals accross the realm. Succeeded with the Plot to Kill Osama bin Laden, which had remained at 3260% for the past nine years. Picked "these hashish smokers are harmless" at the beginning of the Daesh event chain.
Donald 'the Mad' of House Trump: Incumbent. The first Grand Prince in modern history to have the Lunatic trait before his election. Threatened an Embargo war against most foreign Republic with trade posts in his realm. Won the election on RNG.
(Sorry if any of this was written before, I didn't have time to re-read 36 pages before posting)

Due to a bug, Grand Prince Barack did not get flagged as a Known Murderer despite his ordering the assassination becoming public knowledge. However, a courtier of Wali-Malik Mamnoon of the Most Serene* Republic of Pakistan was imprisoned for aiding in the plot.

Yes, with the lunatic trait, he slew the other memes to become "godslayer." Emperor Donald "the Great" von Drumpf also appointed his horse, glitterhoof, a very wealthy bronco, as chancellor to improve relations with King Putin, whose riding horse was also chancellor of Russia (and because of that, Russia has poor international relations). On her borders, he also built a wall of forts to stop illegal Mexican hordes from stealing, raping, and taking jobs. Meanwhile, 'Gina" is stealing both jobs and EUIV content. Make America Great Again and make another 'merica-centric DLC. It's not like we have two already, three if you count El Dorito, its nacho cheese color the same gold as Trump's hair and bank account.

On a somewhat related note..would Glitterhoof or Incitatus be any relation to the horse (or more shockingly..were the actual horse) that Catherine the Great allegedly had uh.."relations" with. Or so her enemies claim. If she managed to pull it off, it must have been one hell of a seduction attempt on a horse of all things.
Incitatus is actually named after the actual stallion whom Caesar Caligula made his chancellor. Glitterhoof I'm assuming is a My Little Pony joke.
Yeah although Incitatus apparently appears in CK2..and that's long after Caligula's death. So I was wondering if he acquired the immortal trait - in which case he might possibly be the horse in question in the rumor about Catherine the Great. Sort of like an equine Forrest Gump.... /tongue seriously set inside cheek

No, the Catherine's my "little" pony would be King Putin's of course. President Trump's (feelsgoodmanpepe.jpg) would be *correction* Buttstallion, the diamond pony from far in the future of Borderlands. Also, to solve the prestige hit of unlanded sons, he gave Eric and Don Jr. Trade posts and for this youngest son, he gave him a barony, despite him being underage, Baron Trump.

Donald "the Mad" tries to destroy the Hospitals, and is willing to console his government into a Horde to do it. But apparently even Hordes can't destroy Hospitals.

Actually they would not have de jure drifted to Brittania since Empress Victoria created the title of India, making it immune to de jure drifts.
