[@Jo-Heike]

I have this achivment, and I actually got it by accident while doing my Tall Visby game (fun tall game, kind of). I needed something to do, so I wanted to do some eugenics. Made a custom ruler that was 32 years old, had hale, quick and beautiful, plus the pure-blooded trait. Then made them Messalianian, and gave them one daughter, which my ruler married at the start of the game for gold and piety (16+16=32). I kept doing this sort of thing, marrying my current ruler to their sisters/daugthers when they came of age, and 3-4 generations (might have been more) I ended up with perfect circle. If you really want to do inbreeding, you need pureblooded, but the chances of getting it natrually are tiny, 0-3%, while the odds of your children having it are 15% (which means you can reroll to have your one daughter have it), when both parents have it, it's a 75% chance to inherit. Either of the two male sucession laws are preferable as males can have a lot more children if you have polygamy, or concubines.

If anyone wants to know how the hapsburgs actually got into inbreeding territory, it's because of the tradition of joining families to join or keep peace with other nations and the fact that you couldn't really make a legitimate heir with someone not of royal heritage. They married off family members for nobility and inherited so many titles from war that eventually their offspring had no other choice than to marry their 2nd cousin in order to either not dilute the lineage or keep tradition with joining the families together. The hapsburgs married themselves into a corner where they created a fuzzy divide between them and some other royal lineages. This is definitely not unique to the hapsburgs, but the fact you can find at least one or two in a shocking amount of country titles speaks to how large and widespread the family line was. Edit: was typing from memory and added more clarification and the context of the Holy Roman Empire's shenanigans.
