Before I explain what is this meaning, it's better to explain my first attempt at playing this mod first.

I have played the Rogue Prince scenario as the spoken character, Daemon Targaryen. He (my character. I use third person POV) had succesfully conquered the Three Daughters aswell as the the Stepstones. He then conquered Pentos and all the kingdoms at its north and its surroundings. Unbeknownst to him, he got independent. Using that opportunity, he created the title of Empire of New Valyria. By doing so, he became the Emperor (which I prefer, personally, than just a mere 'King' title). Surprisingly for him, he had been made heir to the Seven Kingdoms. Not long after that, his brother, King Viserys I, died, which makes Emperor Daemon Targaryen 'the Vain' of New Valyria inherited the Seven Kingdoms. He hereby became the Doppelkaiser, Ruler of both New Valyria and the Seven Kingdoms.

Nah, from the text above, we can conclude that he got two empire-tier titles. It is tiring to rule two separate empire at the same time a.k.a Personal Union (perhaps?). Let us say, why we don't have a decision to melt multiple empires the players have into one, sole primary title of the ruler. So, we don't have to face such "Independent league" wars or negative opinions of 'desires <bla bla> empire'. And of course, simplified laws management.

That's all of my suggestion for now, thank you.

All Hail the Absolute Ruler, Autocrat, and Protector of the Realm

You can destroy either emperor title.

This will cost you prestige (800) and will give a temporary relationship malus with all subjects under the destroyed title but this will de facto unite the empire.
Note that there still is the opportunity for another character to recreate the destroyed empire title, should (s)he meet the creation conditions.

Also, there is a de jure drift mechanic (quite customizable in the game rules). My understanding is that given a long enough period of time (game rules can help you reduce the length of this period), one should be able to de jure unite all kingdoms under a single emperor title.

Yup, that's what it does. If you use the default rules, after 100 years a duchy will move into a new kingdom, or a kingdom into a new empire -- as long as the de jure kingdom/empire they belong to is not also held by you or your vassals.

In a previous game as Westeros I managed to get the Stepstones, Tyrosh, and Lys as de jure Iron Crown, but if I had created New Valyria at some point the drift would stop and begin to reverse.
