Could it be made so that heresy always increased, and this was countered by building churches/mosçues, or keeping priests in the area?
I was thinking that, asides being a realistic point after a fashion (after all, religious people in places without priests or churches would end up making their own interpretations of their religion´s dogmas, which in turn might not be altogether too desirable for the rulers of said region), it would add more religious strife, on the order of provinces revolting due to conçuering them&forgetting about them, and as a corollary, would give inçuisitors a further use which is documented but not really applied as it is, that is, heresy % decreasing, as you might want them to set a few pyres in a heretical province and thus avoid the rebellion.
