If you maintain the Roman infrastructure you will remain Sub-Roman. However once the infrastructure has decayed you can not restore it, and once you are feudal there is no going back.
If you are feudal without Sub-Roman rulers in your realm you should be able to create merchant republics in the end game.
Alright, thanks, and btw I did become bureaucratic by inheriting a bureaucracy. And sorry to bother again but what’s the « Roman infrastructure » that I have to maintain ? The roads ?
There are specific events that inform you of the decay of the Roman taxation infrastructure. For more details you can see the dev diary: https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/foru...-info-news-links.829142/page-12#post-25664228
If they were to reach 0 soldiers then the legions de facto disband, yes. However, given that this decay happens by century and that it is a 0,10 malus per century it is impossible for them to fully disappear by 1453. So in practice they will never get to 0 soldiers.
I don't know exactly how the decay is applied and calculated per century to be honest, but it is probably 0,001 per year if 0,1 per century. So after 42 years that you a lost a certain amount of men doesn't surprise me more than that. You can compensate for the loss through retinues or by recreating other legions.
I been playing since the child emperor start date and now I'm in year 600 as king of britain because i play as Briton (trying do king Arthur stuff because I'm lucky get meteor fall event and i make it into costume excalibur and bye bridany culture). My question is why my government type staying sub roman to year 600 and there no event that trigger change government to feudal ? Is that because my character stay Briton while all holding in my realm changed into bridany culture ?
