Gavelkind Bonus = 1.3 (+30%) if you are under Gavelkind or Elective gavelkind succession law, 1 otherwise.Ī "Great Duke" is a Duke with 2 or more duchy titles. The demesne limit is (the notation refers to rounding down to the nearest integer): However, if a ruler goes over their limit due to a reduction in stewardship skill, the penalties kick in immediately.

If the Khagan continues to hold onto too many counties, a minor clan can rise up in rebellion to force the Khagan to recognise it as a major clan.

Instead, Khagans will be increasingly pressured to give out excess nomadic counties (defined as counties with 0 or 1 settlement) to vassal clans (or to start a new clan), as excess counties lower clan sentiment, which lowers vassal khans' opinion towards the Khagan. Nomadic rulers do not have a demesne limit.
