WHEREAS His Majesty, King Godefroy, the King of Jerusalem, has proven himself preeminent among the kings of Europe, WHEREAS the Emperor of Song has an affinity for Christians that could generate greater ecumenical dialogue WHEREAS the Middle Kingdom possesses indisputable wealth, power, and learning, from which the Kingdom of Jerusalem would benefit, I, Qualiam d'Quintavallis, hereby propose the following policy: The Prester John Actualization Policy 1. The King of Jerusalem travel immediately to Bianjing to kowtow before the emperor in pursuit of friendly diplomatic ties; 2. While in Bianjing, the king will make every effort to secure rare artifacts for the Haute Cour and pursue trade opportunities. This policy will give our king the opportunity to spread the word of the Christ while in the Middle Kingdom. With some effort, we can use the Son of Heaven’s interest in Christendom to make him accept the Son of God.

MaxieSatan posted:* OOC - seems our inheritance law may prevent granting territory directly to women under normal circumstances. Hashim, if you're up to save-edit or console in a baroness, it would be appreciated; if not, just grant control of this castle directly to the Prince of Cairo. This won't happen unless it's permissible in-game, which it currently isn't. That would have to be altered before I can freely give titles to women.

I'd like to commend my good compatriot Flesnolk for his wise policymaking. While I am here, I'd also like to propose a new Directive: On the Legacy of Godefroy To serve as a cautionary tale to all the good boys and girls on the scourge of brain gout, I propose we give Godefroy, the winner of two crusades, the nickname "Fatty Brains." Let there be no further victims of this horrible epidemic!

Esteemed members of the Haute Cour, on behalf of the Regent Tièrri van Loon of the Parti du Roi and Dimitri Blaiddyd of Pro Deo et Regno, I propose the Kingdom Consolidation Act of 1110 Due to the succession constraints of the Egyptian crown, upon the death of our monarch the realm could split in half, as if we were King Solomon's child. This is unacceptable. Therefore in this act we propose: The Kingdom of Egypt title is rendered fundamentally void as long as the Kingdom of Jerusalem exists and we hold no empire title. Therefore:
I submit this bill for your consideration, and trust that God will guide us towards its enactment.

 I shall, now that our Kingdom is established and not under threat, propose an updated version of my previous policy, which I am calling The Silk Must Flow 2: Post-Crusade Boogaloo - Four trade posts along the silk road are to be constructed in our eligible provinces, beginning with Jerusalem and Jaffa - These trade posts are each to be upgraded with one level of Silk Road Trading Post and Mercenary Garrison, with the post in Jerusalem to receive a further level of each - The Steward of the kingdom shall be assigned to oversee construction in Jerusalem until these are completed It is my hope that this brings prosperity to our realm.

Flesnolk posted:* In return, the Kingdom is to use the resulting Grace* to request the services of a Chinese physician to aid the ailing King Godefroy. (Quick bonus OOC note that the crown is currently giving the king aka Hashim/our ultimately playable character +0.1 Monthly Prestige +1 Monthly Piety +5 Same Religion -3% National Revolt Risk for the entire game, which we'd be giving up for a temporary (though possibly extremely powerful if we're lucky enough to use it correctly) benefit. One that can go up in smoke real fast if China is invaded by Jurchens or the like.)

Woudn't the crown and the image only stick with Godefroy and his dynasty? So as soon as he dies and another king is elected we'd lose that bonus anyway.

You can submit a Law that makes specific monarchal regalia (crowns, sceptres, holy artifacts etc.) always belong to the elected King of Jerusalem. Basically like the Reichskrone and Lombardy Crown with the HRE.

"Right, lads. War's over, time to attend to business. Lotta lands to handle, and that means a lot of paperwork. Paperwork as can't wait five years every time somebody keels over or gets shuffled to a different castle. So here's my proposal." The Councillor Pro Tempore Law Whenever a position on the King's Council (that is, the five main councillors) is vacant, and the next meeting of the Haute Cour is more than one year away, the position shall be filled forthwith by a provisional Candidate, as per the following rules.

 IN RECOGNITION that our unfortunate Marshal has been so lacking in subsistence that he has been forced to resort to drastic measures, I propose a Directive, On the Matter of Tripolitanian Relief to: Grant the minor title Keeper of the Swans to Prince Raimond of Tripoli So that he may not have to resort to such ghastly culinary measures if the King provides him with some of his own waterfowl.

Prince Raimond is obviously still invited to both my personal hunting trips and to the official royal hunting trips, but uhhh, perhaps someone should keep an eye on him to make sure that the only living things being hunted on our outings are birds and creatures that walk on the ground with four feet.

Might want to specify which Relics. As it is, a cynical King might make use of your vague wording to sell a few artifacts that he considers not necessarily holy. For the purposes of listing out the Relics, you're free to include 3 or more (since they're not technically clauses, just a listing).

A second version for your consideration. A Law Regarding the Ownership and Disposition of Certain Holy Relics and Other Particular Artifacts All Holy Relics within the jurisdiction of the Haute Cour are the sole property of the Kingdom of Jerusalem and always belong to the duly elected King of Jerusalem that he may protect and safeguard on behalf of the Kingdom. - This Law applies to any and all Holy Relics or other Artifacts excepting those that can be equipped in the ‘weapon’ slot or the ‘torso’ slot. - Additionally this Law applies to any and all Holy Relics or other Artifacts that can be equipped in the ‘ceremonial weapon’ slot. - Additionally this Law applies to the Lance of Longinus, the Staff of Moses, and King David’s Sling and the exception regarding Holy Relics that can be equipped to the ‘weapon’ slot does not apply to these three named Holy Relics. i81icu812 fucked around with this message at 02:26 on Nov 5, 2019 |

Titular Title Directive of 1110 Grandmaster van Loon approaches the center of the Haute Cour Fellows of the realm! Due to the joint law proposal between the Parti du Roi and Pro Deo et Regno, I believe that if the title of Egypt is consolidated into the single title of King of Jerusalem, that the titular title "Protector of Egypt" should be bestowed upon the ruling monarch. The King would then be referred to as: King X, King of Jerusalem and Protector of Egypt. Top Hats Monthly fucked around with this message at 02:14 on Nov 5, 2019 |

 Policy Proposal to commission a Great Mural in Alexandria in honor of King Godefroy the Great and the warriors of Christ and the creation of additional tolls on the bridges and roads of Alexandria. - In recognition of the great victory given to us by God over the Caliphate, the glory of the triumphant crusader king Godefroy the Great and the sacrifices of our brothers in arms, a great historic mural shall be commissioned for the sum of 300 gold coins to be painted on the interior walls of the Lighthouse of Alexandria. In it shall be depicted the events of the First and Second Crusades, along with the brilliant leadership of our faithful king, the martyrdom of Count Galdemar of Hebron and whatever other events which shall be deemed worthy of preservation. -Alexandria, being a center of commerce and one of the final points along the trade network which extends to distant Cathay, shall have the infrastructure built to support additional road tolls in Alexandria for the sum of 250 gold coins (a feature built on the lighthouse). This shall make any future trade posts built in Alexandria extra profitable for the crown. Brothers, we find ourselves blessed with wealth and glory. Each of you has reason to be proud, but let us not forget who we owe this victory to. Godefroy, great crusader king, scourge of the Muhammadans and warrior for Christ, is surely deserving of our praises and a monument to match. The walls of the Great Lighthouse of Alexandria are massive, ancient and bare. I propose we have a mural commissioned, to honor our king and remember those brothers and martyrs who we have lost. Alexandria is not simply home to a lighthouse of great size, but also a place of great wealth. As the westmost post of the great trade networks which extend to far Cathay and Indou, it would surely be to the treasury's benefit if additional tolls were established on the road, bridges and barges of the county.
