Just a quick question: what's the purpose of converting a country via warfare? I picked up the Religious idea group and so I can declare war on heretics (I'm playing as Netherlands). I mean, it's a free CB, I understand; but if I don't want to take them over/vassalize them and don't know what else to get out of the deal, so I just make them convert to Catholicism - what's in it for me? Doesn't that just mean I won't have a CB on them later? I figured I'd get some papal influence out of it (but didn't).
