On one of my game's as a Greek county, I formed a Duchy after the Emperor randomly gave me the title Duke of Mesopotamia. I was planning on changing succession to Primogeniture before my lands got split, but when I got the duchy title the game recognized it as my leader having a short reign despite reigning since 25-26 (he was around 55 at this time). While it hurt me for a while and I got my county back since the 2nd son revolted anyways it was rather annoying and forced me to wait a while until I could unite the counties.

In essence gaining a ducal title restarted my leader's reign and disallowed me from changing laws despite a lengthy reign of my ruler.

Same happens when a king usurps an empire. Doesnt really make sense to me. All the king's old vassals suddenly go "who dat new guy on dat throne dere? gotta hate me his guts"! Why would they? They've been knowing me for decades.

Maybe they know he's fit for one role but not so sure about another?
