Joining a kingdom or creating your own is an essential step in building your empire in Mount & Blade: Bannerlord. Once you're part of a kingdom, you can start recruiting lords to join you and grow your faction. But before you do that, it's crucial to understand the implications of betraying a kingdom.

To avoid any potential conflicts later on, take your time when deciding which kingdom to join or create your own. Through conversation options, you can ask to join an existing kingdom and pledge allegiance to its king. Alternatively, you can join an existing clan by speaking with its head.

However, creating your own kingdom from scratch requires a significant amount of effort and resources. You'll need to raise your clan level to at least 4, which involves increasing your renown and capturing at least one town or castle.

The ultimate goal of your campaigns in Mount & Blade: Bannerlord is to conquer the entire map of Calradia by joining forces with other kingdoms, creating alliances, and winning areas through conquest.
