How much does every extra province increase the cost of your technology? I hate to have crappy provinces like Highlands and Albania (low tax and wool) which generate tiny monthly income for me while increasing the costs of my technology.

I'd like to be able to calculate when a province is "worth" having, even if cored. Then I'll know when it's just better to vassalise. I mean, owning Albania is 1 tax, but a vassalised albania will be half of (1 tax + capital + national focus) without the hassle of possible non-accepted cultures and the like.

And no, I don't care about pretty borders. I'll happily just snag the best provinces like Lubeck, London, Northern Italy etc.
