Historical Ruler Events
I always wondered why there weren’t many events that had important leaders from the late medieval and early modern era. Since Paradox doesn’t seem to care all that much for historical immersion I decided to do it myself.
In this mod there are events that allow you to take certain figures as your heir, in line with the times they lived of course, and also events that give you "benefits" for achieving certain goals or for just having them reign for long enough.
Ottoman Sultan Suleyman the Magnificent/Lawgiver
– if you conquer Egypt and Budapest by the end of his reign you receive benefits
Charles V of Austria and Spain
– Personal Union between Austria and Spain if they both exist and are both ruled by the same dynasty
Sun King Louis XIV the Great of France
– Benefits if you heavily focus on increasing crownland
Gustav Vasa of Sweden
– Establishes the Vasa dynasty in Sweden
Ivan Grozny (the Terrible) of Muscovy/Russia
– It’s a wacky surprise!

– Say goodbye to your consort!
