From occupied provinces you get 25% of their IC/resourcesGrevenWhite said:If I annex them will it increase the IC's I get from the occupied states? Right now I have about 300(I had 50 of my own). Of Course I haven't decided what to do with Little México and Big México (read former U.S. of A.) after I get that son of a motherless goat FDR to sign the peace treaty. But I'll figure something out.
From annexed provinces you get 33% so its worht it.
Also, if you sue for peace with them they might accept as neutral countries (aka not member form an alliance) tend to do this.
