Hereditary Hierarchy

tradition_hereditary_hierarchy

Hereditary Hierarchy is a realm cultural tradition in Crusader Kings III: Castle Holding Construction Cost -5%, Feudal Vassal Tax Contribution +10%, Long Reign Bonus +25%, Tyranny Loss -50%. Adopting it costs 2,000 prestige before modifiers. It changes what Amateurish Plotter, Naive Appeaser, Indulgent Wastrel, Misguided Warrior, Conscientious Scribe and Loyal do. 15 cultures start with it, among them Georgian, Franconian, Bavarian, German and 11 more. Patch 1.20.0.3, from game/common/culture/traditions/00_realm_traditions.txt.

It is ingrained in this culture that leadership in passed on by blood, nobility is bound by stone in castles, and that the feudal structure is unshakable. They do not easily forget those who break the feudal code.
