Cardinal selection
The top ten Catholic provinces in Catholic nations will compete for empty seats in the Curia. The chance of a cardinal being picked from any province can be seen in the tooltip over the Active Cardinals ribbon in the papacy interface. Factors that affect cardinal selection chance are as follows:
Provincial base tax of candidate province
Total provincial base tax of all Catholic provinces owned by nation (worth more)
Total provincial base tax of all non-Catholic provinces owned by nation (worth less)
Number of cardinals already controlled by nation
The selection of cardinals tends to favors countries whose wealth is concentrated in a few valuable provinces, rather than spread out over many poorer ones.
I'd like the provinces with cardinals be highlighted on the Religious map mode.

The Curia is the administrative body of the Catholic Church overseen by a group of cardinals. There are 49 seats in the Curia, and a new cardinal will be inducted on the first day of each year should any seat be empty. New cardinals are randomly selected from among the Catholic provinces of Catholic nations. Cardinals are loyal to the Catholic ruler who has ownership of their province, so it possible to earn the allegiance of more cardinals through conquest. The primary benefit of controlling more cardinals is to increase one's papal influence.
