I Tried to Claim the Mandate of Heaven as the Tanguts… It Went Horribly Wrong

In this CK3 run I played as the Kingdom of Xia or also known as the Tangut Empire, starting with an intelligent ruler and a beautiful queen at my side. I spent years building up the kingdom, expanding my power across the region, and even forcing Qocho and the Great Khanate of Liao to become my tributaries. With the realm thriving, there was only one goal left: claim the Mandate of Heaven.

That… did not go as planned.

What was supposed to be the rise of a new celestial dynasty turned into one of the most frustrating wars I’ve fought in Crusader Kings 3. China pushed back hard, my armies collapsed, and my dream of becoming the Heavenly Emperor shattered right in front of me :(
