Hey, I have a few questions. First, what's the scale of the map provided? And what exactly is a good measure for the size of a kingdom, and is there variance - i.e. ups and downs for claiming more or less land at the start?

On religion, is it mandatory that the kingdom be in allegiance with the church? I'm entertaining the idea of developing a separate mythology and religion that my somewhat distant realm would cultivate, which would evidently put it at odds with the established church and its adherents, but it's a risk I am willing to take. If I may create my own faith, we could even see some interesting dynamic perhaps with missionairies being sent from or to my yet unnamed kingdom.
