Conversians

I play as the Turks, abandon all my Anatolian lands and conquer the Balkans save for Constantinople so they can convert Anatolia to Eastern Orthodoxy. I never installed a mosque in my game. lol.

Sucks that there's no conversion option.


I think that Creative assembly and those guys who made Victoria 2 need to work together to make a game
 
Eh, any game that combines the details of running a nation a la Paradox and the battles of Total War would be absolutely perfect.
 
1st case: Definitely a carrots and sticks approach. Demonstrating the moral or material superiority of your religion can't hurt. Having dedicated missionaries willing to live amongst the locals and understand their culture will aid conversions.
And then the sticks: A special tax for non-believers seems to be an effective long-term tactic, though it may not eliminate opposition religion entirely.

Destroying the local clergy/ houses of worship can't hurt either.

2nd: Hard to say. There are very few areas where Islam took root that it has been supplanted or disappeared except for Spain, and that took the expulsion of the population. For sheer longevity Judaism is hard to beat. Hinduism is rather resilient in its own backyard as well.

Wow thank you So would you say that the Higher clergy need's to be more involved in the conversion practice?

Also I was just wondering during the rennaissance did the Orthodox church and Oriental church band bathing?
 
As far as I know when the higher clergy get's settled they become rich fat sloobs if it wasn't for governement or outside intervention

Just wondering when you say public demonstration do you mean through public education and the practice of banning different religious buildings
 
Carrot and stick but not too hard a stick or too many carrots. Studies or books on the subject would be helpful.

I was wondering what conversians were :)
