Situs Requirements

• Try and subjugate the other kingdoms if the chance is given, do not put your own stability at risk, but if the chance for putting another Iberian kingdom in a union occurs, it should be the highest priority.  

• It is expected that you take the fight to unite Iberia. It might not be worth it to go fully against Aragon to subjugate Navarra, but unless you are already in a war or a disaster, then it is expected. You should also expect both Portugal and Aragon to try and subjugate you if they get the chance.  

• You are a Catholic bastion, the grave of St. Peter is in Galicia, a major pilgrim route goes through your land, hundreds of thousands of pilgrims visit yearly and it is one of the holiest places in the Catholic faith. It would take some serious RP to allow for your nation to convert entirely.

• Your monarchy is deeply catholic, while you might end up in a situation where you ally a protestant or reformed family, the majority of your dynasty would never marry heretics. It needs a major RP narrative to allow your nation to marry heretical dynasties.

• Castile has major infighting between the estates of its nation, each faction fighting for power against each other. Historically, the Spanish Inquisition was largely used by the crown as a government tool to consolidate power under the monarchy. We expect to see this flavor your narrative    

• Assigning a holy order to a state must be done in RP. You can even RP the different orders as powerful factions with their own agendas within your nation. 

• Castile gets through events the decision to go down the path of absolutism or cede power to the nobles early on. This could RP around. 

• If you form Spain, you must go down the path of absolutism. Destroy and diminish the power of the estates and gather as much crownland as possible. It is forbidden to have lots of estate privileges without proper RP justification.
