What determines if a vassal king desires an empire - Close-up Portrait of Lion

I am the emperor of Hispania and Francia and have two vassal kings, the king of Navarra and the king of France. The king of Navarra doesn't desire the empire of Hispania, but the king of France has a -20 opinion penalty because he desires the empire of Francia. Why isn't the effect symmetrical? Neither one is ambitious/envious.

Can Kings be vassals?

Formally, a vassal is a person who has entered into a mutual obligation to a liege or monarch in the context of the feudal system that represents the core of Crusader Kings.

How do vassals work ck2?

CKII, a vassal meeting their duties depends largely on their opinion towards their liege. The lower it is, the fewer taxes and levies a vassal will provide. If relations deteriorate enough, the vassal might plot against their liege or join a faction to work with others in order to undermine or depose their liege.

How do you keep vassals weak?

Simply give them the court jester honorary title, and raise their vassal levies and just leave them there. Eventually they will rebel, and then you can crush them and take a title from them. Another way to make them rebel without incurring tyranny is imprisoning them with a just cause.
