Khanate of Bulgaria not permitted for base of empire.

[Xionor]

Hi, i'm playing from 769 as Bulgaria(currently in 842) and it tells me the Khanate of Bulgaria is not permitted for the base of a custome empire, yet the other Khanates around me are(tested after conquering some of them, Crimea for example).
There was a Bolghar empire in the 6th century so it should be available, right?

Can I fix this manually in some config file or?

Do a title search for Bulgarian Empire. That's the one you want to form.

We don't allow you to use the custom empire decision because a titular title with the exact same name exists.

Thanks, I found it now.
However both the Bolghar and Bulgarian titular empires require a realm size of at least 150.

Isn't that a bit overkill in comparison to the scarcity of holdings in eastern europe?
This is me with just 83 holdings and I'm already starting to blob.
150 holdings means I pretty much have to control almost the entire eastern europe.

or take a piece of greece and serbia. build a few holdings.

You need 150 holdings or 50 provinces (if you're using the latest mod version, that is).

That's true, but only for the Bulgarian Empire and Bulgarian culture doesn't come up until later.
In the start you're only Bolghar and the Bolghar Empire requires 150 holdings and doesn't say anything about provinces.

No? If so, I'll have to go and fix it. May have simply been missed.

Just took a look through the non-special empires and it looks like e_deccan was also missed.

Edit:

Also, while on the subject, I noticed that e_britannia and e_danubia are formated differently than the rest.

Looking like this:

    OR = {
       FROM = { has_holder = yes }
       FROM = { is_titular = no }
       ROOT = { realm_size = 150 }
       ROOT = { num_of_count_titles_in_realm = 50 }

As opposed to the rest which look like:

    OR = {
       FROM = { has_holder = yes }
       FROM = { is_titular = no }
       ROOT = {
         custom_tooltip = {
           text = HAS_SIZE_EMPIRE
           hidden_tooltip = {
             OR = {
               realm_size = 150
               num_of_count_titles_in_realm = 50
             }
           }
         }

Don't know if it's intentional or what but it looked odd so I'd thought I at least bring it up just in case.
