Re-Emerging factions

Best Pope control........Burn Rome to the ground then let him have it back, just to attack the Paple state and raze it. Leave him in Rome with no buildings, and just a few troops. Think of him as a pet, use that 5 star assassin to keep him under control.

You can always sick him with grand inquisistors for fun. Something about atheist popes burning at the stake is just somewhat amusing.

One in in my big English campaign, the Spanish tried to invade me for some stupid reason so I bashed them out of the Pyrennes, Leon, and Castille and all but the provence(It was some chunk of North Africa - everything from Portugal and Cordoba to Egypt rebelled) the king was in had reemerged with tons and tons of Almohad Urban Militia and Muhawudi Foot Soldiers. I'm sure they had fun down there. The Spanish won everything back only to attack me again and have every one of their provences in North Africa and Cordoba to GO INTO REBELLION which the ALMOHAD PROMPTLY REEMERGED IN and turned all the Muslim rebels to them.

I kinda fell bad for them... but atleast it got rid of all those stupid javelin spam armies that they threw at me. They won though and ended up surrounding the lone Almohad provence.
