{{version|2.7}}
对一个头衔拥有宣称意味着你有理由拥有它。{{N|宣称|Claim}}被用作[[战争]]的[[宣战理由]]，而且有时可以作为[[剥夺头衔]]的理由。

==宣称类型==
宣称有两种，弱宣称和强宣称。强弱宣称的不同可以根据图形判断，而鼠标悬停在一个宣称上将表明它当前是否会被继承。

任一类型宣称的持有者都有资格通过[[派系]]索取他们的宣称，并且自动地获得封建选举[[继承|继承法]]下的潜在候选人。对某一个头衔拥有任一类型宣称的领主可以从一位封臣处剥夺此头衔，不会招致[[暴政]]。

===[[File:Strong claim.png]] 强宣称 ===

强宣称，顾名思义，是更有用的宣称类型。几乎所有人都可以对任何人索取强宣称。有两个例外：
# 你不能向一个使用男性[[继承法]]的头衔索取一位女性的宣称。（然而，如果你是女性，你可以不顾头衔的继承法，索取你的个人宣称。）
# 不能索取伊斯兰教女性的宣称，即使它们是你的个人宣称。只有该女性转变为一个非伊斯兰宗教或（假设是可继承宣称）在她的儿子继承宣称后，它们可以完全被使用。

拥有强宣称，统治者能够从国内一位角色处篡夺公国或王国，只要此头衔和领主的头衔不是同等级或更高。持有多个强宣称的统治者可以在同一场战争中索取全部强宣称。

拥有 {{icon|hf}} 神圣之怒，拥有强宣称的部落民可以为了部落头衔和持有者决斗，如果两人都独立或者属于同一国家。

===[[File:Weak claim.png]] 弱宣称===

A weak claim can only be pushed if:
* the title holder is female and the claimant is male (except with Full [[Status of Women]] or gender equality game rule)
* the title holder is in [[regency]] (due to [[imprisonment]], incapability, youth, pilgrimage, or [[Assassination#Going into hiding|in hiding]])
* the title is currently contested in another war
* or claimant is 2nd or 3rd in line to the title.

== Generation of claims ==

When a title holder dies or abdicates, the second and third in line get strong claims, and other children get weak claims. Exceptions include:
* Under [[feudal elective]] succession, the second and third in line only get weak claims.
* Under [[gavelkind]] succession, the primary heir does not get claims on titles that are passed to junior heirs who become vassals.
* Theocracies, republics, and merchant republics do not generate claims. <!-- This does seem to be controlled by government rather than by succession law. For example, sons of ex-doges (with normal republic government and residual Seniority succession) do not get claims, while sons of holy order grandmasters do get claims. -->

Claims can also be generated by:

{|class="wikitable"
! Method !! Type of claim
|-
| [[Chancellor]] mission to Fabricate Claim || Strong, uninheritable claim
|-
| [[Plot]] to Forge Claim || Strong, inheritable claim
|-
| [[Religious head#Papal favors|Request claim from Pope]] || Strong, uninheritable claim
|-
| Lost title through war, [[usurp|peaceful usurpation]], or folding to claimant faction || Strong, inheritable claim
|-
| Abdicated due to [[banishment]], fleeing [[arrest]], being [[Papal succession|elected Pope]], or losing [[Casus_Belli#Overthrow_ruler|Overthrow Ruler]] war || Strong, inheritable claim
|-
| Title was destroyed upon becoming landless (even through revocation) || Strong, inheritable claim
|-
| Lost title to liege who "emergency usurped" the vassal county upon losing their last county <!-- shown as "usurped" in a popup notification but as "revoked" in title history --> || Strong, inheritable claim
|-
| Lost title to liege who [[title revocation|revoked the title]] || Weak, inheritable claim
|-
| Lost control of direct vassal title when vassal gained a higher title <!--  (e.g. due to [[Succession#Inheritance_Conflict|inheritance conflict]], liege [[Diplomatic_actions#Grant_landed_title|grant]], or claim war) --> || Strong, inheritable claim
|-
| Lost control of direct vassal title through independence war || Strong, inheritable claim
|-
| Lost control of direct vassal title through independence faction war or ultimatum || Weak, inheritable claim
|-
| [[Viceroy]] became independent (grant independence or during rebellion) || Strong, uninheritable claim
|-
| Inherited from previous claimant || Weak, uninheritable claim
|}

It is also possible to lose titles without getting a claim. For example, losing a county due to [[nomad agitation]] when the top liege dies does not generate claims.

== Pressing a claim ==

A claim is "pressed" when war is declared using that claim as a [[Casus Belli|casus belli]]. Pressing a claim "renews" it, ensuring that it will be inherited by the claim holder's children. Even if the war ends in white peace or inconclusively, the claim remains pressed. It is sometimes useful to press a claim of a courtier and then get white peace or murder the courtier. In both cases, the courtier's children - belonging to your dynasty, perhaps - will inherit the claim.

Multiple strong claims against a single opponent may be pressed in a single war, but only if they're all held by the attacker; you can only push a single claim by someone else at a time.

== Finding claimants ==

When viewing a title, clicking the "show claimants" button will display a list of all claim holders, together with an icon indicating whether they will accept an invitation to your court. Note that this display does not distinguish between strong and weak claimants, nor does it show characters who will get claims upon the deaths of their parents but do not presently have them. To find potential claimants, try looking at the family tree of the dynasty that holds the title. 

== Impact of claims on AI ==
Your AI vassals with claims on one of your titles will have a lower [[opinion]] of you.  Additionally, the AI is much more reluctant to release a [[prisoner]] with a claim on their title. AI rulers will not let you take a [[concubine]] who has a claim on ''any'' title.
