Moral authority and religious head

Moral authority is an abstraction of a religion's strength, unity, and respect. Moral authority levels are visible in the Ledger or by hovering the religion icon on any character sheet. Your own religion's moral authority is also visible in the Religion tab, along with its causes.

影响

高的宗教权威提高绝大部分类型传教的速度及成功率，包括原始宗教领主接受外国传教士的可能性。同时高的宗教权威也会扩大骑士团的规模。而低的宗教权威会令异端的崛起和传播更具可能性。

一些宗教行为需要宗教权威达到特定值：

• 5% 以发起大圣战
• 40% 以进行绝罚
• 50% 以请求入侵
• 50% 以在未控制所有圣地的情况下进行原始宗教改革

Modifiers

Moral authority is primarily affected by control of holy sites and success or failure in religious wars. The personal qualities of the religious head (if there is one) also matter. Below is a a full list of factors that affect moral authority:

Strategies

• The easiest ways for pagans to increase their moral authority are to raid infidel temples and conquer infidel counties.
• Unreformed pagans may find it helpful to have multiple independent tribal duke+ rulers, who can each use the "Build Great Pillar" and "Hold Great Tribal Festival" decisions.
• Ensure that your religion controls as many holy sites as possible.
  • Give a holy site to the religious head (or hold it yourself if you're the Caliph or your reformed pagan religion has Temporal leadership). Catholics and Orthodox normally have the religious head controlling a holy site from the start, but other religions don't. Note that non-Iqta and non-Monastic-Feudal characters incur penalties to the temple's tax and levies.
  • Take care if your holy site is another religion's canary province (e.g. Jerusalem for Muslim Jihads, Christian Braunschweig for Christian Crusades).
