Navarra and Jeruzalem in England ... + some UMAYYAD empire in Iberia and Brittany.

I'm more suprised how close the Karling HRE is to the to territory of the real Ottonian founded one.

All the claims!
(Because I created all possible Empires and gave them away... what to do after WC eh?)

Who translated the localisation to Spanish? That sentence in the pop up is wonky as hell!
Much clearer and concise: "Batir de Huesped de Batir ha saqueado 49.48 de Udabno"
Also, I can tell the translator is a Spaniard, given the leismo in the tooltip. It should be "herirlo" since él it's a direct object.

And if the character is female, it should be "herirla", right? That might actually be impossible without making two immortal traits like we have master seducer/seductress right now, so maybe they used "herirle" as an attempt at gender neutrality.

Tooltips can be localised to include the character's gender. This is a mistake

These borders are horrifying. Damn vassals inheriting titles thousands of miles away

Wouldn't you cringe (at least a little) if you read that "physical wounds can still hurt to him"? That's plain grammatically wrong.

I had a faint recollection that this was true. Thanks for the knowledge.

IIRC, in Spain leísmo is accepted as prescriptively correct.

IIRC, in Spain leísmo is accepted as prescriptively correct.

Not quite as much as "correct," but according to Wikipedia "is both common and prescriptively accepted" for animated objects, in certain parts of Spain (i.e. the northern half).
But leísmo is grammatically wrong nonetheless
According to the Royal Spanish Academy:

leísmo. 1. Es el uso impropio de le(s) en función de complemento directo, en lugar de lo (para el masculino singular o neutro), los(para el masculino plural) y la(s) (para el femenino), que son las formas a las que corresponde etimológicamente ejercer esa función
TR: Is the improper usage of le(s) as direct object, instead of lo (for the masculine singular or neuter,) los (for the masculine plural) and la(s) (for the femenine), which are the forms that etymologically correspond to that function.

[faiuwle]

Prescriptively accepted means prescriptively correct. Who do you think it deciding whether it's correct? It's the people who accept it into the prescriptive standard. Maybe Wikipedia is wrong, though, in which case you should edit it to reflect reality.

 

[Keizer Harm]

Maybe Wikipedia is wrong, though, in which case you should edit it to reflect reality.

Only if you have sources to back it up.

 

[faiuwle]

If it's not properly sourced, someone who's more serious about Wikipedia will probably come around and revert it. But yeah.

Strange screenshots, guys. Strange screenshots.
