Lord Howard secured the title of Baron Fernsouth by forcefully usurping it, having actual control over more than 75% of Fernsouth's territory. The Fernsouth Castle was conquered later, but the title was obtained even before the war had started."
Bosiden nodded and said, "Then consider Resarite's current request for two pieces of land in the Duchy of Croatia, which are under Lord Howard's control. What would happen if Lord Howard agreed?"
