Driznaft: Kiravians in the Crusades

Caption text

Notes

‣ Melians and Sydona are key ‣ Need to coørdinate with Banglazesh ‣ t. Urcea pro: ‣ i think you're actually best positioned for crusades to naturally lead into kiravian empire abroad loose coscivians would be all over crusading coscivian crusader states everywhere the states continue to exist just sort of due to lack of opposition and inertia until ideas about like Great Coscivia and political unity of these places comes about later granted a crusader state surviving until the 17th century at earliest is a long time are there any analogous pre nationalism movements like this? would be worth researching ‣ the less fun but more plausible option ends up being like Coscivian noble families in these places keep dying out, causing more and more distant relations to be more or less forced to assume them overseas while being increasingly more poor and irrelevant, such that you end up having prosperous Kiravians basically passing up foreign thrones and in many cases they just end up being bequeathed to the kiravian state whch i think would bebest for the melians as the crusader state par excellence unless you have something in mind for them ‣ Some form of escheat where heirless lands and titles revert to His Marbliness

Kiravian crusaders came mainly from South Kirav, the Baylands, and Farravonia. [What polities controlled these lands during this period, and who ruled them/led or sponsored the Crusades from there?]
