My 'For Odin!' Fail

[Spry Fly]

I had all of the Scandinavian provinces cored by 1808, but my last core needing converted to Norse had religious zeal until March 1820. Here is where my save is at, not sure where to go from here.

religious zeal until March 1820

Why did it have this so late?

Edit: This is also hilariously close

Edit 2: Could you not have used the enforce religious unity edict to complete it in time?

It was a weird game where Denmark swallowed Norway, but then Russia went imperial on Denmark as I was taking the south east parts of Denmark and Sweden. Russia converted it to Orthodox just before I got it. I had to use an alliance with Ottomans and Ming to chip my way into Russia's holdings. It's my fault that I weakened Denmark right when Russia went all imperial. I'm sure I'll see the humor later, but right now I don't even want to play the game. I have hated that religious zeal completely halts conversion before this even happened. I could at least handle making conversion time take 100 or even 1000 times longer (I would have at least made up that one day). Woosah.

And this?

Edit 2: Could you not have used the enforce religious unity edict to complete it in time?

Edit: You need mandate of Heaven for this and it looks like you don't have it, so i guess that answers my question.

I just bought it, and too little too late. I also should have put in a cathedral, which I was was oblivious to as more than a tax modifier (Thanks Reddit). At least I know my base strategy now. Shouldn't take the whole game on another go around. Thanks for the tip though.

Better luck next time

Religious sponsored guild (Religious/Trade) policy gives +1 missionary strenght.
Religious/Diplomatic give +1 missionary strenght.

So solution would have been that you in 1808 dropped some idea groups and took all who gives you a policy that gives +1 missionary strenght.
