Orthodox Clerical Regions & The Pope

[Aetini]

Anyone know ways I can basically oust a Greek orthodox clerical ruler after the schism to replace them with someone from a catholic rite?

Gotta repair the schism. On the other hand, if you're the Pope before the Schism and have the cash and faith, you can replace the archbishop of Constantinople who's the rite leader of the Greek Rite with an archbishop of the Roman Rite for low thousands of gold and mid thousands of faith. Entirely doable if you focus on building up the Romanesque Cathedral in Rome and then all of the buildings in the papal palace. You can be making 50-70 treasury a month, plus hundreds of other gold from asking subordinates for cash. It doesn't stop the schism just because there's no archbishop of the Greek Rite, but the conversions will spread across Byzantium anyway.

So, I just had the schism occur.
I took over the Ecumenical Patriarchate prior to the schism, as Roman Rite.

I am now the Head of the Orthodoxy (as a catholic), Heir to the Papacy, and any Bull I hold changes Catholicism.
