The Livonian Order is a large Monastic Order based in the Baltics. It lies on the coast of the Baltic sea and borders Teutonic Order to the southwest, Lithuania to the south, Novgorod to the east, and contains Riga as an enclave within it's borders. It is a historical friend of the Teutonic Order. It is able to form Kurland.

Form Kurland[edit]

Reform into Kurland

The Northern Crusade has long come to an end. Our Crusader identity will soon bring us no more than nothing and maybe one day, it will eventually become a burden... By secularizing the state and reforming it into a duchy which is led by the former Grandmaster and his knights - now the Duke and his vassals - we can rouse the state from decadence and ameliorate our diplomatic situation.

Allow The country: has an administrative technology of at least level 10. is not a nomad nation. is not at war. is Reformed or Protestant. owns its core provinces Goldingen (39) and Mitau (1935).
