Speculation on Diplomacy, Nationality, and other matters.

I also saw a little thing on holding a Protectorate. Seems that Vassalage has become a Protectorate now. Though they can rebel. It may be the answer to my question of how Hanover will be handled once the Georges take the crown.

It also said that you receive 50% of their profits while you hold them, that would be better than Vassals who never seemed to have any profits at all.

Another feature I would like to see is alliances forged between more than two partners. A league of nations formed by certain factions getting together for mutual benefit would go a long way to stopping one faction (usually the player) from steamrolling everyone else off the map.

I have my hopes up for not only coalitions, but also the possibility of those allies grouping their armies together to fight off their common enemy. I really hope alliances will mean something this time around.
