Forcing to become a satellite

[Gaijin de Moscu]

Basic question...

I scored 100% against another country. Annexing them or taking their provs will give me quite a BB (it's CSA - huge). I am not sure what's the benefit of forcing them to become my sattelite - do you know?

Prestige that's it.

Prestige that's it.

And it makes them friendly.

And ALOT easier to get into your alliance soon after.

I see... so basically, it's not useful if I want to eventually annex CSA, but is useful is I want to keep my northern borders safe...

Thanks a lot for your answers

If you're the USA and it's the civil war, there's an event that should fire that will give you the CSA without BB. Otherwise you have to settle for the BB or make them a minor ally. You could also force them to disarm, that really weakens them until you're ready for another war.

It is his northern border, so I guess he is Mexico
