not that you guys are going to do this but is there away for others, when you release your mod, to some how make an area's homeland expand after a set amount of occupation? i like the system you have but it would seem that after say 50-100 years of occuping an area that your subjects would be assmilated and be naturlized. i'm refering to elite units aor growing. with 120 regions, only having like 5 recruiting elite units in late game could suck. although i agree with you trying to make empire building harder by simulating internal, cultural, strife in conquered regions. just wondering if there's a way to make a set amount of years to make new government possible (of course if culture and other requirements are met). keep of awesome work.
