Best way to let other clans join your kingdom after destroying their kingdom?
Most time they are mad at me or before I destroy their kingdom, they don't want to join me..

Once their last fief is gone and their kingdom implode... After a few weeks the clans that doesn't get picked up by other kingdoms, will vanish from the game. If you plan to recruit any such clans, you need to do it before they implode. Not possible to recruit them after, just as not possible to recruit rebel clans.

Trade with them to get relationship back positive, offer marriage (not sure about this working with fiefless clans) for positive relation.

play merc and free prisoners after battle.

when the important clans loves you, start play vassal and king to recruit the clans you want. 1 clan of every culture is more then enough. (maybe 2 clans for empire).

This is why you need to put in the groundwork early. When you are at war, release every lord/lady prisoner to get the relation ship bonus. I normally keep releasing them till that clan has +90 standing with me. Then from that point on I will keep them prisoner to keep them off the battlefield.

You also need to be very careful which fiefs you siege. When you siege one it lowers your standing with the owner clan.

It is a balancing act to get and keep those relationships high to give you a better chance of recruiting them.

One last thing. Try to recruit before you take that factions last fief. It is generally easier to recruit clans who own no fiefs. Periodically check to see which clans in your enemy faction are fiefless.
