In my game their moral authority was constantly at 100, HRE extended from Sweden to Spain, the Bulgarian Empire (also Catholic) spanned from Croatia to Slovakia to the Black Sea, and it already won a Crusade.

No, see a few earlier posts. I was playing pagan Sorbia to Slavic Union.

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.

90% of the time Western Christianity gets walloped by the 10th century as it's caught between Nordic super-kingdoms launching Prepared Invasion every ten years and an OP Hispania usually ruled by the Umayyads that has subjugated all of Mauretania. By the time the Pope can call for a crusade, it's too late. Not enough potential participants to hold up against the Muslims and Pagans.

This is also common in 867.

The former I've seen to often -Hispania often incurs into Francia and often even Italia if you get the 769 start, especially if Charlemagne fails to make a bitch of the Saxons, but I've literally never seen that happen in the 867 start. Christians literally get Crusades at 900, and if the Khazars haven't taken over all of Byzantium and the Abbasids for some reason, there's on crusade after the other.

I've literally never seen Charlemagne subjugate the Saxons on account of the AI not understanding how tribal attrition works.

The Roman Catholic Church and the Orthodox Catholic Church hadn't split until the Great Schism of 1054, making them two branches of (ostensibly) the same Chalcedonian Church.
