How to form the Empire of Outremer? ›

The empire of Outremer needs to be formed through a decision which should show up if you hold the Kingdom of Jerusalem and have your capital there. You can then see the provinces required by clicking the "Outremer Region" text in the decision tooltip.

In the lands of Outremer, crusaders introduced a new political presence and a novel cultural construct where the French language was used on a daily basis, and where French language texts were created, circulated, and amended in much the same manner and at times in direct correlation with French texts produced in areas ...

The land that it encompasses is unnamed, but is the territory between the principality of Antioch (to the North), the Ayyubid sultanate of Egypt (to the South), and the Ayyubid sultanate of Damascus (to the East), corresponded with the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem, which, if somewhat diminished, was still the central ...

A character can avoid going over the vassal limit by creating duke vassals and transferring count vassals to them through the grant vassal interaction. A character's vassal limit can be seen by opening the Realm menu (key: F2 ) towards the bottom-right.

Outremer. The terms Crusader states and Outremer (French: outre-mer, lit. 'overseas') describe the four feudal states established after the First Crusade in the Levant in around 1100: (from north to south) the County of Edessa, the Principality of Antioch, the County of Tripoli, and the Kingdom of Jerusalem.

The Crusader States, also known as Outremer, were four Roman Catholic realms in the Middle East that lasted from 1098 to 1291. These feudal polities were created by the Latin Catholic leaders of the First Crusade through conquest and political intrigue.

The Crusader states of Syria and Palestine were known as the "Outremer" from the French outre-mer, or "the land beyond the sea".

Creating the Outremer culture is simply mixing an applicable European culture with an applicable Arabic culture, using the same format and rules as hybridizing any two cultures.

Tripoli fell in 1289, and Acre, the last Crusader stronghold on the mainland, was besieged in 1291. After a desperate and heroic defense, the city was taken by the Mamlūks, and the inhabitants who survived the massacres were enslaved.

What are the 4 Crusader states? ›

During the twelfth century the four crusader states consisted of the Principality of Antioch, the counties of Edessa and Tripoli, and the Kingdom of Jerusalem.

Under Saladin's command, the Ayyubid army defeated the Crusaders at the decisive Battle of Hattin in 1187, capturing Jerusalem and re-establishing Muslim military dominance in the Levant.

Characters can hold at most 2 duchy titles without suffering opinion penalties from their vassals; this rule does not apply to any other ranks. Emperors can have duchy rank vassals without penalties.

You may be emperor AND king, unlike too many duchies there is no too many kingdoms limitation. So you technically can hold all the kingdom titles under your empire or empires. For the reasons you listed it is better to have counts as direct vassals and not create duchies, until you hit the direct vassal cap.

Any ducal or kingdom title can be created by a character who controls at least 51% of its De Jure Counties as long as they hold either two titles of lower Rank or one title of equal or higher Rank; empire titles require at least 81% of their De Jure Counties.

Generally, empires are built through armed conquest by a powerful state over weaker states. There have been many empires throughout history. Historians generally recognize the oldest empire in history to be the Akkadian Empire, ruled by Sargon of Akkad, which dominated Mesopotamia.

Much like creating other titles, forming an empire can be done by clicking on a title's emblem, and then seeing if it is a De Jure territory of a larger, unformed faction. For example, clicking on the Kingdom of England will show it to be a De Jure part of the Empire of Brittania.
