My first campaign was played as the English and I always had a fairly high influence rating (that only improved when I took more provinces and went on the odd crusade against the Almohads)
I'm now playing as the HRE, and My influence was pitiful, after massive conquests all around (Eastern France, Denmark, Northern Italy, Poland all the way up to Finland) I got a high influence.
This all changed when my Emperor died and his successor had terrible influence (strange given I have such a large Sprawling empire)
Do the Germans ever gain respect?
