A demesne was the playing board of the game Shah-tezh. Emperor Sheev Palpatine used this concept to explain the Galactic Empire to a young Gallius Rax 25 years prior to the Battle of Jakku. By the design of the game, all pieces exist to protect the Imperator, and if the Imperator falls a game must begin anew. By analogy, if the Emperor were to meet his demise, the Empire would be dismantled and begin anew via the Contingency, since those serving the Empire failed their utmost role of protecting their leader. Following this design, Counselor Gallius Rax, a title perhaps eponymous of the Shah-tezh piece, exhorted Grand Admiral Rae Sloane to travel to the Eclipse, a Super Star Destroyer forging a path through the Unknown Regions.

  • A demesne is the term used for the land that the dynasty you play in Crusader Kings directly control. The size of the demesne is determined by the highest title your current ruler has (which is multiplicative factor in demesne size, for instance a Kingdom title gives you x0.4 more demesne you can control), and his intrigue rating.

  • A demesne is the term used for the land that the dynasty you play in Crusader Kings directly control. The size of the demesne is determined by the highest title your current ruler has (which is multiplicative factor in demesne size, for instance a Kingdom title gives you x0.4 more demesne you can control), and his intrigue rating. A higher title and better intrigue naturally equal a bigger demesne size, but keep in mind that in war the more provinces you directly have under your control, the more territory an enemy can occupy and pillage. On the other hand, bigger demesnes for vassals mean they cannot automatically be occupied and annexed by invading forces, and gives you more time to save them, but also means less land for you to control). For counties, it is very easy for an independent nation to be entirely under your control. But as your titles go up in power (and prestige), it will become harder for you to keep your entire nation in your own demesne, and you will eventually have to split off counties to keep the efficient number of counties in your demesne. When you exceed that number, you will actually be unable to get your actual income from all the provinces, usually suffering a 10% total decrease in income per extra county you control past your limit.
