Petition for Lippe

[Caligula Caesar]

Ravensberg was chosen so we didn't need to add a micro-state OPM. Sure, Lippe lasted a long time, but so did many micro-states in the HRE. More relevant is, did they ever do anything of importance? Did anything relevant ever happen in their territories?

Anyway an independent Lippe would usually just be conquered by whoever gets in first.

It's about making a better game. If we do as some people seem to want and have every OPM in the HRE represented, we will hardly have any countries with more than two or three provinces - the vast majority will have one. Then you may as well roll a dice as to which come out on top in the initial struggles, and likely none will be able to stand against the major powers, ever. Keeping the amount of new tags in check means that we can better control who will be significant, and design content and tweak balance accordingly.

Yes, I saw the feedback, thanks for that. Some cities changed location.

To give a short and simple answer, it's about which tags were important enough to merit inclusion as independent countries and which not. Some which narrowly missed out then got added as vassals or releasables.
