Thanks, figured it'd be something simple.
After tag changing, it's recommended to save-reload if you want to play the game: tag switching will do strange things to the AI.

Is there any way to look up your infamy? I keep getting into BB wars with UK and I'm not sure why.
This is question that's been bugging me for a while. In your army overview screen you can see that each unit is asocciated with one POPs. If POP is less than 1000 it'll tell you that it cannot reinforce associated unit due to lack of people HOWEVER each mont nonetheless your unit is reinforced. so my question is where is it reinforced from? Is it reinforced from different (larger) POP? Is the message confusing and unit is reinforced from its associated POP event though it's less than 1000 souls? cheers!
Is it possible to avoid a war of containment by having high relations with other countries?
I can handle containment wars against nations like Mexico, Japan, and the Netherlands, but it would be nice if I could keep the British, French, and Americans off my back as I try to unite South America.
Also, while looking through the game text files I saw that Fascist nations can get an Annex CB against their neighbors. Is this true? I've never seen it happen.
I've got a question: I'm playing Japan, GP (3rd), beating Republic of Britania every war an stuff, but I've been wondering about turning my country into fascist country. Still, my citizens are just too happy and wealthy, they wouldn't revolt even under heavy taxation. I'm Prussian Const. and I can't appoint nor the Fascist nor Communist party. In what government types I could do that? (thay have no chance on winning elections - they have ~10%)
Is there a way to check if Assimilation is working in your country?
Can you further boost Assimilation besides changing your ruling party to one that has Limited/Full Citizenship?

I have a few more questions about containment wars:
1. Do the declarations of war start immediately after breaking the infamy limit, or can I go further over the limit before other nations get really mad?
2. How many brigades does the AI usually commit to a containment war? Does it change depending on where I am located or how close my territories are to theirs?
3. How badly do I have to beat them to get a white peace? Can I just fight off their invading armies or do I have to take some of their territories?
And i also have a naval question: should I build a balanced force of ironclads and monitors or is it more effective to just spam one or the other?
Is there a reason not to tax aristocrats to death if you don't have any capitalists?
The answers to 1-3 are all "It depends." Containment wars aren't necessarily immediate -- they weren't in my US game -- but it all depends on how powerful you are to begin with. I don't think the AI treats containment wars any differently than other wars, to be honest, so the number of brigades/likelihood of white peace would be the same as if they were trying to take territory or something.
To your navy questions, I think monitors are completely useless and a waste of resources. Monitors were best used in rivers IRL, but that's not really an option in Vicky 2. Transports go faster without them, and you're probably close enough to cruisers that it's better just to wait for them.
