I'm wanting to know out of curiosity what exactly triggers event 1096, where a vassal is essentially given the option to declare independence?

# NOTE: Triggered by the code directly. Do NOT change the ID.

character_event = {
	id = 1096
	picture = "event_intrigue"

	action_a = { # Acknowledge New Liege
		effect = { type = prestige scale = 1 }
	}
	action_b = { # Refuse to acknowledge
		effect = { type = independence }
		effect = { type = trigger for = liege value = 9999 }
		effect = { type = prestige scale = -1 }
	}
}

# Liege counter-part for independence of vassal:

character_event = {
	id = 9999
	picture = "event_intrigue"

	immidiate = { # Damn
		effect = { type = prestige scale = -0.2 }
	}
}

There aren't any triggers listed of course, but since the event fires when a liege dies it is easy to deduce what the code is.
