Declare Stance in the Iranian Intermezzo

Change your allegiance in the Iranian Intermezzo

variesPietyLegacy of Persia

The Friday Prayer is the most important religious ceremony of the week, ending with a recitation of the realm's spiritual and temporal sovereigns. By altering who is read in the list in my realm, and where they place, I can announce where my true loyalties lie.

Requirements

The lines the game itself shows for this decision's conditions:

Your Head of Faith Title must be the D Sunni
Otherwise you may still take the Decision, at the cost of Stress and extra Piety
There is no caliph to emphasize or omit at present
You are the caliph!
You have sworn too recently — either your Modifier must expire, or the caliph must change
You have defied the caliph too recently — either some decades must pass, or the caliph must change
You killed a caliph who wasn't part of your Dynasty — no one will take your support seriously
