Overview

In Crusader Kings III, the game's timeline is divided into four different eras. Each era represents a different period of medieval history and is associated with different technologies, innovations, and events. Here are the four eras:

  1. Tribal Era: This is the earliest era in the game and represents the period when many societies were still organized into tribes. During this era, characters can use tribal government mechanics, and the technologies and innovations available are relatively basic.

  2. Early Medieval Era: This era represents the transition from tribal societies to feudal ones. It's a period of significant change, with new technologies and innovations becoming available that can transform the way your realm operates.

  3. High Medieval Era: This era is a time of great technological and administrative progress. Towns grow into cities, the burgher class rises, and new opportunities for expansion and conquest become available.

  4. Late Medieval Era: This is the final era in the game and represents the height of medieval civilization. The technologies and innovations available during this era are the most advanced in the game, and characters can use complex strategies and tactics to achieve their goals.

Each era has its own set of innovations divided into four categories: Cultural, Regional, Military, and Civic. These innovations represent technological advancements, social changes, and other developments that can provide various benefits to your realm.

Transition from one era to the next happens gradually over time, and different cultures and regions may progress at different rates. The choices you make can influence how quickly your realm advances through the eras and what benefits you gain from each era's innovations.

How to Open the Command Console

In CK3, cheats are executed from the command console, a text box that you type commands into.

To open the command console press the ~ (tilde) key, which is typically located under ESC (escape).

If your keyboard does not have that key, or pressing ~ does not work, try the following keys:

  • ~
  • SHIFT + 2
  • SHIFT + 3
  • ALT + 2 + 1

Type your command into the console, and then press ENTER .
