Some remarks when I saw the map of the first period - Flanders is a part of Normandy - according to my knowledge it has never been a part of Normandy. From 800 it was a vazal state of France with a huge independent character.

Under pression of the cities of Ghent and Brugge which had an important trade agreement with Engeland Flanders kept as much as possable that independant character although it was a vazal state. When the king of France wanted more control over Flanders the cities revolted because of the fear to lose the trades agreements with Engeland (the ennemy of france). There have been a lot of battles And when the influence became to big an counterattack of the cities resulted in the battle of the gulden sporen in 1302 afterwards the Flanders realm became for an short period totaly independant but it did not last that long.

I admit it isn't easy for the devs to create some realms beacause realms changed easily from kingdom to another kingdom through heritage and mariage.

I hope also that it will be playable as Flanders - Brabant holland Gelre were not part of the realm around 1300 - 1400 that was much later;

I don't mind randommap or not - I choose another kingdom and leave it over to rebels or neighbour kingdoms and with my army I conquer Flanders and then the game begins for me

Wait i thought they said there already is a random map generator they mentioned it last year. But if they don't then it would be a great idea.

Maybe it would be important having random map for multiplayer games that would be nice but the most important thing is we have the Europe Map ! to play the grand campaign

Oh and also I meant it originally by random states in Europe (not to bother the devs with making new maps. Map of Europe is the same for all, the early, the late and the high periods, so I thought that adding one more option. Europe where kingdoms emerge randomly, depending on settings which player wants.
