I'm playing PEASANT REPUBLIC FLORENCE trying to spread PEASANT IMPERIALISM (I own all of Tuscany from the Papal States up to Lucca) and I've been prestigemaxxing the ENTIRE GAME just so that I can ask the HRE to make me a Duchy

well guess what? there's been no Holy Roman Emperor for like 20 fucking years now! like literally since the start of the dang game! ahhhh!

still waiting on the new patch to fix a bunch of shit before i dive back in, HRE is supposedly fixed on beta branch so you could always give that a go (i never play in europe so idk), but it does suck to lose a bunch of progress in a slow ass game to some bugs cuz paradox. u could try updating to the beta branch and loading ur save anyway, see what happens.

(i never play in europe so idk

also just sayin' but if you play florence or dithmarschen you can be a peasant republic and pretend you're doing communism
