Best way to defend my colonies from random small nations on the other side of the world? I'm playing Belgium to learn the ropes, got myself some East and West African colonies, ended up attacking Vietnam to claim the South half of the country as a colony. I was winning in 'Nam without too much trouble, when suddenly Casablanca is invaded by a Vietnamese Cavalry brigade. It didn't inconvenience me too much, I had some infantry in the area and my navy cleaned up, but still I felt it was kinda random and ahistorical.
Also, do closed factories count towards my industrial score at all? And is there any way to get capitalists to build factories that actually make sense? I have like 16, but 3/4 of them are closed, because apparantly if I have two factories, one 100% employed and the other 10%, capitalists think it's a brilliant idea to build five more utterly random ones.
