    I agree, but the Almohads are also good for the same reason. Using Granada (in VI) or Granada and Murcia (in XL) as a border line, you can take up the task of uniting all muslims under your banner (see: destroy the eggys and turks), stabilize a borderline in Constantinople and Khazar, and after that I would suggest you followed the footsteps of Abdel Rachman untill the whole of Europe becomes a tranquil, orange empire!

    The Danes seem to me to be a good one to start out with . Just one
    province to start with Sweden (very nice) and Norway ripe for the taking.
    You also have a fertile king and several HRE provinces you can smack
    when you are ready. Longboats will expand your trade network and the
    world will suffer the wrath of the Vikings . Good luck.
