Someone ask pope Francis to declare a crusade.

To get the Pope to declare a Great Holy War against a caliphate you first have to wait until approximately the year 1080 when this will become an option. Once you receive notification of this you need to check the current Pope's opinion of you so it will help if your ruler has a high diplomacy skill or traits seen as favourable by heads of religion e.g. zealous otherwise bribery may be necessary. Once he agrees other Catholic rulers will offer to join. One useful trait your ruler can gain through this event is 'Crusader' which will boost many stats as well as vassal opinion so be sure to have him lead one of your armies in order to potentially gain this. Hth.

e: please note also that a successful Crusade will massively boost your religion's moral authority as well as decreasing that of the opposing religion so whilst risky as well as costly (be prepared to lose most of your troops along the way through attrition) it can be very helpful in the long run.

According to Tom Clancy the new caliphate was supposed to arise after the Iranian Ayatollah succeeded in getting saddam asassainated leaving the country in civil war where they picked up the pieces. But this is close enough.

Declaring an antipope is considered to be pretty gamey due to the amount of income it generates, however the flip side is that Catholicism will take a permanent -30% to its moral authority. This cannot be undone.

obama stands over the corpse of his sworn enemy Osama Bin Ladin, chest heaving from the effort of his mighty battle. behind him, hillary wipes clean her maul and bush the second stares into the distance, muttering "its finally over." Obamas eyes narrow, staring into the darkness of the Muslim Throne Room. "not yet" he says. Bush looks at him, worry creeping across his worn features. a rumble suddenly shakes the room, threatening to toss the trio to the floor, and dashing the racks of scimitars and ak47s to the ground. in front of them, a row of american and israli flags light up like torches, one after another, revealing a passage to the darkness. "AL QEADA MEANT NOTHING TO ME" a voice bellows, as a massive figure rises, illuminated by the flames. "YOU ARE TOO LATE. THE CALIPHATE IS REBORN. YOU WILL FULFILL THE PROPHECY YET, SON OF KENYA." this was their last chance, to turn the tide. obama raises his blade once last time.

"no" says blair quietly from behind obama, placing a hand tenderly on his shoulder. "the true war is in here" he slides his arm down obama's arm and tugs gently at his wrist, pulling the president's hand towards his own heart. "to defeat the al quiade you must first learn the love of the British Empire"

"this is so," says bush, unbuckling his belt and allowing his pants to fall to the floor.

"we must all play our part" agrees hilary, her pants suit now all but removed.

"i understand" nods obama solemnly, his own cock growing erect in anticipation of the events to come. "bush, gently caress my rear end. gently caress it hard while i suck blairs cock. today, we destroy islam."

bush's muscular rear end glistened in the sun as it pounded back and forth against obama's tight buttpussy. "this is how i felt in 2008" he hissed as he approached climax, his republican dick turning red, white and blue inside the president's boyflower.

"i'm going to gently caress you harder than iraq" leered blair, grabbing obama's rounded dome and forcing his royal cock deep into his face and throat. "urrrgghhhh" he groaned, pulling out rapidly and unleashing his seed all over obama's face. "collateral damage" winked blair, high fiving bush.

"mnake way boys" came a voice from stage left. it was hilary, wearing nothing but polished armour over her vaj and tits. "the queen is here to claim her prize"

To do that, you need to have at least -2 unrest in those territories to trigger Golden Horde, also have at least 2 active rebellions triggered nearby.

Tony Blair is pretty much Voldemort right now. He's a shadow that appears on obscure pages in the newspaper in a far-off land. Just rumours and snippets of stories. He was the man at the top, the big boss but now he's a grey withered voiceless face with mud for a name so dark that no one dare speak it.

The Caliphate has always been at war.

quote:

In 1977, a new American Ordo Templi Orientis, (O.T.O.), called "Caliphate" selfstyled itself to be the worldwide "Grand Lodge" when his protagonist Grady Louis McMurtry (1918–1985) signed a paper: "Let all Thelemites know that I, Hymenaeus Alpha, 777 IX° O.T.O., 9=2, Caliph of the Ordo Templi Orientis of Aleister Crowley, Baphomet, 666, do hereby Charter Thelema Lodge as Grand Lodge of O.T.O.".
