R5: I force released Leon in a war where Castille was an ally of my enemy (England), and after I checked in a hundred years later, Castille had (almost exactly) taken Grenada's normal 1444 position on the peninsula!

Omg... you are right.

You are spared this time.

I'm playing a colonizing game, so as an added bonus this means that Portugal and Castille haven't touched the new world AT ALL (Portugal had a handful of west African colonies that Jolof and Benin ate up) so I've had relatively free reign for colonizing.

I'm more surprised about the Moroccan Portugal.

All that is left is for them to be properly Sunni and they will have almost truly embodied Granada.

Here's the religious map of Iberia. It's not quiiiiite Sunni.

The more you look at it the worse it gets

Oh how ^the ^tables ^have ^turned

Moroccan Iberia? What have you done OP?

I didn't touch Portugal at all! Actually, early on they got Morocco down to 3 provinces, and then somehow Morocco came back with a VENGEANCE (I suspect a Morocco/Aragon alliance took out Castille and Portugal)

Maybe Tunis and the Ottomans saved Morocco. With France helping with Castile. Really weird tho, never seen that at all. Usually Morocco just takes Cueta

France and Aragon have been an alliance for a long while. Castile was a good chunk smaller than Aragon when it got the wedding event and got Aragon in a PU, and then France supported Aragon's Independence.
Still very odd, wish I could look back and see exactly what happened!

Huh that was pretty strange though

Grenada is the Carribean island. Granada is the Spanish Sunni country.
...shit, you're right!
It's fine, it's a common mistake.
One was named after the other after all
Yeah it's really strange how they named Granada after Grenada before they had even found the island, I'm always wondering about that.
Yes but close counts in horseshoes and hand Grenadas.
