What is Crusader Kings II About Anyway?

Crusader Kings II is a strategy game set in the Middle Ages. Players can start a game at any point between 1066 and 1337, and play until 1453. It originally came out in 2012, however, it holds up very well since it is not the type of game that requires flashy graphics. Simply a love of history and micro-management.
