Establish the Electorate of Saxony

The hinterlands to the East have for too long remained outside of the reach of the Empire. We must consolidate these titles into a new Saxony, to secure our rule over the region.

Requirements

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

Sorbia does not exist or is held by you.
At least 12 Counties in Custom Polabia are either your culture or the culture of your Liege.
