Crusader Kings Chronicle, part 5: 1112-1128

For glory! I'm currently in the middle of an epic undertaking: chronicling an alternate history of Europe in Paradox's Crusader Kings II, with a new entry every Wednesday. I have just been crowned King Brian I of Ireland, and gathered the Lords of the Emerald Isle to offer them vassalage. Can I unify the realm and secure its independence? It's a mystery only time can reveal. Onward!

Get caught up: The Prologue , Part 1 , Part 2 , Part 3 , Part 4 . Also check out the Strategy Chronicles Hub , which will be updated regularly.
