"What point is there in calling them something else? It's but changing a word, and you may call the Epirotes Gauls if you like, but that won't change what they are. I do not support it, at least not until you've given a reason for doing so."

(OOC: I disagree with having them as an actual protectorate, but just making them our allies, giving us military access, map info + a sum to be given for 12 turns (which is renewed after that possibly with a changed sum depending on the Epirites situation), that I would agree with. We would simply get too much through "the real deal".)

I do not want these people to keep their armies and their wealth, along with a thirst for vengence, Senator. How long do you think the ceasefire will last in such circumstances?

And for the last time, I do not talk of changing the Epeirites name. I talk to calling her former allies by what they are; Thracians, Dacians and the like. The forces residing in northern Makedonia are not Epirites. Why should we call them so? The Byzantians were allied with Pyhrrus, but they are not Epirites.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Not necessarily an In-game protectorate, I know how imbalanced those are. I mean we force the rights of a protectorate, like a fine, and alliance and military access, like you said.
