List of counties with 6 settlements (and others)

[BraidsMAmma]

Oh, whatever. I'll do the two noob questions, you can laugh at me if you like as long as someone answers then
1. Why coastal provinces?
2. Is there anything else that number of settlements that determines how good/powerful a province is? In CK1 there was some kind of economic modifier that made some provinces (the green ones on the economic map) richer. Is that wholly replaced with the few/many settlements provinces?

1. coastal provinces grant a bonus tax modifier
2. apart from # of settlements, the only thing I can think of that will determine the power of a province is:
a) the type of holdings (e.g., more cities = more tax)
b) technology in province
c) council members boosting the province

c) council members boosting the province

About that ... Having steward collecting taxes, does that help your barony tier vassals aswell?

Not exactly a tax modifier, but coastal cities can build an additional building - ports - which increase the tax income by the same amount as the one available to all cities.

Stewards only collect taxes in holdings you control directly - no increase in taxes from your barons. Likewise the Marshall only increases levy regen/size in directly controlled holdings in the province.

Thank you! =)

There is also tax modifier +25% for any city in republic that is coastal.
