Fun fact: Female Rulers can be the defender of the faith, if their country already was when they rose to the throne, they just can't claim the defender if it's vacant/already claimed. I've had plenty of Spanish queens be Defender of Catholicism, even in successive generations of female rulers.

Isn’t it obvious? Religion is stored in the balls.

Historical accuracy

What's the whole "Defender of faith" even based on anyway, historically?

Need to be a male ruler to acquire the title, but afterwards it can be passed to your nation's rulers regardless of gender. Fun fact, Henry the 8th acquired the title after writing a paper attacking Martin Luther and Protestantism and defending Catholicism, but didn't relinquish it after converting to Protestantism and the title passed to his heirs to this day.

Huh.. I mean, it's not something that needs to be relinquished? And it's not like it's inheritable..

He never converted to Protestantism. He just decided to make himself the Pope so he could have his annulment.

Because women don’t exist in eu4, obviously. This is very good news. As women have never existed before 2022

Same reason a woman can't be Holy Roman Emperor without the rules being changed. It's a man's world.

Remember Jeanne d'Arc? If I was a female ruler in those ages I will probably just leave religion matters to the cardenal just to prevent being accused of witchery or something like that.

Free thinking women…? Can’t have that! Burn the witch!

Well because you are în early modern age,of course women are discriminated,the resons why is complex and dates back to religion and preconceptions
