What is Cultural Acceptance in Crusader Kings 3?

Cultural Acceptance is precisely what it says on the tin: It’s how accepted a particular Culture is within your realm. Each Culture will have its own Cultural Acceptance value, which will change due to several factors. But what makes Cultural Acceptance so important? At its core, Cultural Acceptance will affect how characters from different cultures interact within your kingdom. For example, Low acceptance leads to more rebellions, vassal discontent, and overall instability, while higher acceptance opens doors to higher opinion and peace. The baseline acceptance between cultures is determined by several factors such as shared heritage, language, religion, and location. Each of these factors provides a bonus to acceptance, which you can either build upon or damage through various in-game actions.
