I decided to take a look at the converter files to see if I could find the source of some of the strangeness that occurs in the conversion process.

So far I have found:

Probable sources of strangeness:

VOLG;BYZ;Volga #Byzantium along Volga
UGRI;FIN;Ugric #Finland in Saratov-Tambov area (Use KAZ-Kazan for this one and the one before?)
MARA;SCO;Mar #Scotland in the Persian Gulf area (IRA-Iraq?)
PECH;TUR;Pechenegs #Ottoman Empire in Romania (CUM-Cuman?)
DEHE;ENG;Deheubarth #Welsh duchy, should be WLS

Unidentified very serious problems:
- Krete in Meath

I checked that Mar is supposed to be a duchy in Scotland, but The Emirate of Mar is in the PG area. So it looks like something that should be fixed by modding the starting positions.

I suspect that the Muslim Emirate should actually have the tag MARB (Arabs) instead of MARA. So it is apparently a scenario setup bug; MARA is correctly the Scottish duchy of Mar.

Confirmed, it was MARA only in the titles file, country and character files used MARB.
