Getting States via Diplomacy

[UP-Cedric]

Can I get States and Provinces via Diplomacy, even if there is no national focus for it?

E.g. can I trade lands with my allies or puppets?
Let´s say I am the USA and offer Great Britain land lease for some of their oversea lands?

And can I trade or claim single provinces instead of whole states?

No you cant without national focuses. You can only give and ask for controll over occupation of occupied states. You cant claim single provinces either, since that is limited to the state level. Provinces are only there for troop movement and placement of defensive structures like coastal forts, land forts and also for harbours (not dockyards). Everything else is done on the state level.

It should be noted that you can deploy fleets and airwings in allied air and naval bases and that there is an Destroyers for Bases National Focus for the USA.
