followed by crippling inflation....That's basically what the RL conquistador felt when they went there.
LAUDS AH MONEY!
You do need to take provinces to protect them from other colonizers. My advice would be to take everything but the gold provinces so that they are surrounded (protected by you) and have the ability to pay up every 10 years or so.Yeah it's common. That's why it can often be a good idea to protect Inca/Aztecs if you don't plan on conquering them. Just go to war for ducats every now and then but never take any provinces.

The Incans get production income whereas you get tariffs. This also adds to your burden to keep up the # of big ships. Much better to let the Incans have the gold, since they can spit out the ducats without suffering from the 50% tariff penalty.seems like good advice. I took all the inca gold provinces for myself but their income sucks really
its possible to take 9k from ming in one peace deal.....
Most people'd be swimming in gold by the time they get to Ming... that's unless you start as an Asian country.its possible to take 9k from ming in one peace deal.....
In what year and is this doable on regular basis like taking thousands of gold from the incas in the early game?
It's much more worth it to take India first, since it has much more rich provinces.if you`re the first european to get to them and they are big you can get 100 for each point of warscore-if you`re already rich, take 17 provinces instead-you can only do this once though with ming, since their neighbours will pile in afterwards-i usually get to their western border around 1550, by snaking through the hordes.....
