How can I destroy the Papacy as a Muslim or Pagan?
When playing as a Muslim or Pagan, I would like to inflict significant damage on the Christian world, and conquering Rome somehow doesn't grab me as that significant (not to mention that once I saw an adventurer declare war for Latium, conquer it, and then become a Prince-Bishop of Latium and vassal of the Pope: I suppose it was a bug/glitch, but nonetheless kind of disappointing).
So if I conquer Rome/Latium in general, what are my options? Should I just stay there and force the Pope to take off his funny hat and stay in the middle of nowhere, in some bishopric somewhere?
Best Answer
I don't have the proof for that, but I think I read somewhere that the Papacy can't be destroyed. Pope will still reside not somewhere, but in Rome, even if it's Muslim in your game.
There are some way you can harm Catholics even more:
- reduce their moral authority to the minimum by conquering holy places
- this will lead to the spreading of heresies
- allow some heresy to become the dominant branch of Catholicism
- then go for Byzantium and Russian duchies and kick some Orthodox asses)
