The realm laws screen (v. 2.8) Hint: scroll down to find these laws

Realm laws are laws concerning how the realm is governed.

They require the Conclave DLC, and replace both demesne laws and crown authority when the DLC is active.

Note that nomads only have the "Status of Women" law and vassal obligation laws available to them.

Laws which are unchanged

Viceroyalty and centralization laws remain unchanged, but are now found on this tab.

Laws controlling title revocation and inheritance by characters outside the realm are now passed separately, rather than being components of crown authority.

Vassal obligations

The new laws allow rulers to shift the focus of the obligations of the realm's vassals, between more taxes or more levies. Thus, they trade off taxes vs levies, rather than taxes and levies vs opinion. Obligation laws now determine the minimum vassal levies, replacing one of the features of crown authority.

Nobles prefer tax-shifted obligations, while burghers prefer levy-shifted obligations. These tend to be the opposite of what their lieges prefer. Opinion bonuses and penalties from law changes are only temporary, however. Iqta government do not have Noble and Church obligation laws. Similarly, Feudal governments and Theocracies do not have Iqta obligation laws.

Note that at the default level, Nobles do pay some tax, which is not the case if Conclave is not active.

For all but Tribal Obligations, Legalism 5 and 6 is needed for the Focused and Heavily Focused obligation on either side, respectively.

Vassal wars

Law	Description	Opinion	Requirements	ID
Allowed	Vassals may fight against enemies both within and without the realm so long as Realm Peace is not enforced.			vassal_wars_law_0
External	Vassals are forbidden from declaring war on enemies within the realm, but may attack external enemies so long as Realm Peace is not enforced.	-5 feudal opinion	Imperial Administration	vassal_wars_law_1
Illegal	Vassals are forbidden from declaring war both within and without the realm.	-10 feudal opinion	Imperial Administration	vassal_wars_law_2

Realm peace can be temporarily enforced via the Council tab regardless of the standing law.

Advantages of restricting vassal wars

• Peace improves the economy, especially with prosperity (The Reaper's Due) and the Silk Road (Horse Lords or Jade Dragon)
• Vassals' levies contribute to siege defense
• May help keep any one vassal from growing too powerful
• Restricting internal wars may encourage vassals to focus on external wars, which expand your realm
• Restricting external wars prevents vassals from launching holy wars, which risks tanking the religion's moral authority if they lose.

Advantages of allowing vassal wars

• Faction rebellion is less likely, because:
  • Feudal vassals have increased opinion
  • Faction members have decreased strength due to war losses
  • Faction leaders cannot issue ultimatums while they are at war
  • A faction to "increase council power" is less appealing when it only increases council power. (It can also nullify vassal war laws.)
• External vassal wars can expand your realm without incurring much threat
• May choose to allow vassal wars that benefit you, while intervening in wars that do not
• May revoke titles from vassals who refuse individual demands for peace (with The Reaper's Due and at least Late Feudal Administration)
• More characters gain leadership traits by participating in battles

Status of Women

Through legislation, it is now possible to empower women by allowing them to take positions on the council. Most council positions first become available to women related to the ruler (dynasty members, close relatives, wives, and concubines), landed vassals, and in some cases nuns.

At the second highest level, it is possible for Muslims and nomads to pass Agnatic-Cognatic succession, which in turn allows matrilineal marriage. At the highest level, it is possible to pass the Absolute Cognatic succession law, and female rulers do not suffer opinion penalties. These changes are more significant to Muslims and nomads, who previously could only use Agnatic succession and patrilineal marriage. The ability to appoint female commanders expands your talent pool as well.

Level	Technology	Opens position	To these women	Other effects
Traditional		Spymaster	Wife, Mother
Marginal	Tolerance III	Advisor	Landed vassals
		Spymaster	Relatives, landed vassals, nuns
Significant	Tolerance IV	Chancellor Steward	Relatives, landed vassals, nuns
Notable	Tolerance V	Marshal	Relatives, landed vassals	Allows agnatic-cognatic succession for Muslims and nomads
Full	Tolerance VI	All positions above; Commander	All women	Allows cognatic succession No opinion penalty for female ruler No opinion penalty for female heir Female rulers are less vulnerable to weak claims
