De jure drift as Emperor

[Bloodeagle369]

I want to increase my Kingdom de jure size as Emperor. Any suggestions how to do this? I hate that I cant make my kingdom stronger as an Emperor.

some of the legends from the new dlc let you instantly make another kingdom de jure your empire when you complete the last tier.

You have to make it bigger at the kingdom level before you create an empire. Longer term planning - let your son, or your grandson -or their son or grandson, finally form an empire.

If you're already there, split the kingdom off by inheritance, play as that kingdom and expand it, then reforge your empire.

Sometimes you're able to de jure drift duchies into your capital kingdom(or even entire kingdoms) even as an emperor. By doing this, with enough time you could dejure drift an entire other kingdom into your capital kingdom. I dont know if this is what you'd want, though.

For de jure drift to happen the title has to be created, completely inside someone's realm, and 1 rank lower then the person's primary. Duchies can only drift to the main kingdom of a king. From your position you would have to pull a stunt lasting 50-120 years for a king to absorb the duchy you want.

Legitimizing legends.

Just get more Kingdoms into your empire? Usurp some kingdoms, create some kingdom titles. Et voila. Or so is my understanding. I am emperor holy roman empire and I have kingdoms, I can usurp and create.

I don't know your level of knowledge about the game, but I usually recommend to click the empire map view and check the availability to claim any of those. Also you can create your own new empire in the decisions tab but that will take considerably bigger objectives.

Also forging a claim with your religious counsel, while being only for counties, you have a rare chance to forge for an entire duchy. Even, if my memory isn't failing me, there's an even rarer chance to forge for an entire kingdom. But as far as I know forging for an entire empire is just not a possibility.
