Nusantara Total War : Portugese Invasion

[Nyz]

Well, by using ancillaries, you can extend "Sultan Office" to other offices...like the 4 major offices of Bendahara (Prime Minister), Laksamana (Lord Admiral), Temenggung (Inspector General of Police) and Penghulu Bendahari (Minister of Finance).... I know that modding ancillaries is easier than modding traits....Well, if you all cannot make the titles come later and change character's name, we have to make the character name like "Tun Ali Datuk Paduka Raja" from the start...

And, for your information, not all head of province get Sultan title. The title of head of province under a subjugation of bigger empire can be Penghulu (for small settlement) (like Tun Perak appointed as Penghulu of Kelang before promoted as Bendahara); or Mandulika / Mendelika (Governor, govern bigger settlement) and lastly, Raja (king, govern a state).

In Sejarah Melayu, it was stated that the ousted Prince of Melaka, Raja Muhammad Syah (Son of Sultan Mansur Syah, ousted because kill a commoner), appointed as Raja Pahang, not Sultan of Pahang (Pahang at that time was vassal of Melaka). Terengganu had a special title for her governor, Megat Terengganu.

The Sultan title can be with condition; Raja of a province has enough power to declaring independent from its protector. Then, he can claim he is the Sultan (of that province / state). It can be done trough peaceful way, or forceful way. These were the case:

a) When last Sultan of Melaka pass away, Melakan Empire splited to two. The 1st Prince, Sultan Muzaffar Syah appointed as Sultan of Perak, and the remaining south empire ruled by 2nd Prince, Sultan Alauddin Riayat Syah (II) (1st Sultan of Johor). Pahang was still as the vassal of Johor, and the head of state still called Raja. (Peaceful way).

b) During the reign of Sultan Abdul Jalil IV (Sultan Johor), Bendahara was granted Pahang as their personal fief. They are also known as "Raja Bendahara" for their status as the rulers of the vassal state of Pahang. Pahang was the vassal of Johore Sultanate. Tun Mutahir, Bendahara Seri Maharaja, Raja Bendahara Pahang V (1847-1863). He is the last reigning Raja Bendahara of Pahang. He was ousted by his brother Wan Ahmad who was later proclaimed as Sultan of Pahang after the dismemberment of the Johore Empire. (Forceful way)

c) Raja Lumu, the son of Bugis Chief, Daeng Celak, govern the Selangor area at the height of Bugis influence in Malay peninsula. He originally met with opposition from the Sultans of Perak and Johor, as well as from the Dutch, but eventually managed to consolidate his position as sovereign. By 1770, Sultan Muhammad of Perak was forced to recognize Raja Lumu as Sultan of Selangor (he brought warships to Perak) and force Sultan of Perak to give insignia of Malay royalty and made installation ceremony as Sultan of Selangor. Then he changed his name to Sultan Salehuddin Syah. (Forceful way)

"Sultan offices" ancillaries will be granted in condition that the character stay there for 12 turns and had "Zoroastrian (actually modded in text to shown as muslim)" as his traits. If he didn't have minimal Zoroastrian 1 trait, the "Raja offices" will be given instead....

Well, it is not that the King get the Sultan title because he is more Islamic than the other......
