What do you like to do when you're not dead yet?

As far as I can tell, you need to hold one province at all times.

You lose the game if you have no dominion left. If you lost all your provinces and forts, then you are being killed and all the dominion that you had in provinces (black candles in the provinces for your enemies) vanish on the next turn, after the message that your god's reign is over. It might be, but very unlikely, that having something like a stealthy pretender which generates Dominion right after the Dominion was removed might survive that he lost everything. But it probably was something else like still having a fort under siege somewhere, which means that you'll have zero provinces under your control, but you're not dead yet.
