Events[edit]

The Emirate of Sicily

In ages past, the Emirate of Sicily was a stalwart bastion of our faith; holding strong until the crusaders conquered the island in 1087.

Now that we are in possession of this coveted land, we have the choice of once again reinstalling a Taifa state, to act as a bulwark against the warlike Pope, and his adherents.

Trigger conditions

None

Is triggered only by

completing the Retake Sicily.

An excellent idea.

Lose all cores on Sicily and Western Sicily areas
Release Sicily as a March:
- Core provinces are on Sicily and Western Sicily areas
- Is a Monarchy
- Has our religion, culture and dynasty
- Gains claims on Calabria, Naples and Apulia areas on all not owned cored overlord's provinces

Absolute authority requires absolute rule.

All owned provinces in Sicily and Western Sicily areas:
- Gain province modifier “Administrative Investments” for 20 years, giving the following effects:
  - +3% local missionary strength
  - +50% province trade power modifier

Scholarly Sentiment

The fertile land of the Delta lies in our hands, prompting a resurgence in economy, culture, and scholarly pursuit. The latter has provided quite an edifying discovery - many are emerging who would see us embrace the Ismaili ideals of the long-dead Fatimids, having come upon various ancient scrolls and documents in Nilic libraries, which now circulate through our nation's elite.

We should issue proclamation swiftly, on how to deal with this swiftly spreading school of thought.

Trigger conditions

None

Is triggered only by

completing the Into Egypt.

This may just be worth the risk...

Move our capital to Cairo (361)
Convert to Shia
Gain country modifier “Influx of Believers” for 20 years, giving the following effects:
- -25% advisor cost
- +2% global missionary strength against heretics

Stamp it out.

Gain country modifier “Conservative Approval” for 20 years, giving the following effects:
- +2 tolerance of the true faith
