Title: 3.4

- Added a new faction system. All crown authority factions have been merged into a single faction that is more responsive to the actions of their liege, and have more actions they can take. Every 3 to 7 years they hold a meeting to determine what action they'll take. If they're in a bad mood they might issue an ultimatum to their liege, but if treated well they will not be much of a threat. They're potentially a much greater threat than the old factions however, as the faction is global to the realm rather than specific to a single dejure kingdom or empire
- Fixed a few minor event bugs
- Made the requirements for Tribal Invasions more obvious
- Got rid of nearly all flags in PB that exist in vanilla. Most of them were grandfathered in from North African Expansion or the Lotharinga and Lowlands mod. Most of them were either identical to vanilla or of comparable quality. Only 10 flags that are better than vanilla's were kept. For better flags, use ARKO
- Added ARKO as a dependency, simplifying the use of ARKO + PB (no files have to be deleted any more). Makes no difference for users not using ARKO
- Improved the localisation of some CB restrictions
- Fixed it not being possible to appoint female councillors when using Enatic or Absolute Enatic succession. Women can now lead armies and be marshals under Enatic and Absolute Enatic succession
- Councillors opinion of their liege now has a minor effect on their job performance (credit goes to zijistark)
- Italia (empire-tier) can now be formed by Sicilians
- (PB+SWMH) Reduced the Baqt tax modifier to 40% (from 50%). Remains at 50% in PB without SWMH
- The coastal county conquest CB now specifically bans Muslims from using it, instead of only allowing Christians to use it
- (Gender Equality) There's no longer an opinion penalty for female rulers/heirs
- Ensured that randomly generated characters cannot get the Rum and Immortal traits
- Fixed the creation of a French HRE triggering the event about a German HRE being formed
- Added correct text for new Italian mounted crossbowmen (cavalry) cultural buildings [zijistark]
- (PB+SWMH) Fixed the conditions for gender laws being a bit outdated
- (PB+SWMH) Fixed issues with historical setup in Ethiopia
- Fixed No Ahistorical Empires breaking Imperial Reconquest
- (No Ahistorical Empires) Now works by event instead of history files. Should therefore be less prone to a number of issues
- Updated the implementation of the New Duel Engine to its latest version. Overhauled its assignment system to give a better starting balance of traits
